  2. Milne-Thomson method for finding a holomorphic function

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milne-Thomson_method_for...

    Let be any holomorphic function. In his article, [1] Milne-Thomson considers the problem of finding when 1. and are given, 2. is given and is real on the real axis, 3. only is given, 4. only is given. He is really interested in problems 3 and 4, but the answers to the easier problems 1 and 2 are needed for proving the answers to problems 3 and 4.

  3. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    a(x 1 − x 2) = b(y 2 − y 1). Therefore, the smallest difference between two x solutions is b/g, whereas the smallest difference between two y solutions is a/g. Thus, the solutions may be expressed as x = x 1 − bu/g y = y 1 + au/g. By allowing u to vary over all possible integers, an infinite family of solutions can be generated from a ...

  4. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    In mathematics, factorization (or factorisation, see English spelling differences) or factoring consists of writing a number or another mathematical object as a product of several factors, usually smaller or simpler objects of the same kind. For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x – 2) (x + 2) is a polynomial ...

  5. Lagrange polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_polynomial

    The Lagrange form of the interpolation polynomial shows the linear character of polynomial interpolation and the uniqueness of the interpolation polynomial. Therefore, it is preferred in proofs and theoretical arguments. Uniqueness can also be seen from the invertibility of the Vandermonde matrix, due to the non-vanishing of the Vandermonde ...

  6. Inverse function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_function

    If nonempty f: X → Y is injective, construct a left inverse g: Y → X as follows: for all yY, if y is in the image of f, then there exists x ∈ X such that f(x) = y. Let g(y) = x; this definition is unique because f is injective. Otherwise, let g(y) be an arbitrary element of X. For all x ∈ X, f(x) is in the image of f.

    is a horizontal line with y-intercept a0. The graph of a degree 1 polynomial (or linear function) f(x) = a0 + a1x, where a1 ≠ 0, is an oblique line with y-intercept a0 and slope a1. The graph of a degree 2 polynomial. f(x) = a0 + a1x + a2x2, where a2 ≠ 0. is a parabola. The graph of a degree 3 polynomial.

  8. Trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometric_functions

    Basis of trigonometry: if two right triangles have equal acute angles, they are similar, so their corresponding side lengths are proportional.. In mathematics, the trigonometric functions (also called circular functions, angle functions or goniometric functions) [1] [2] are real functions which relate an angle of a right-angled triangle to ratios of two side lengths.

  9. Kappa curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kappa_curve

    The kappa curve has two vertical asymptotes. In geometry, the kappa curve or Gutschoven's curve is a two-dimensional algebraic curve resembling the Greek letter ϰ (kappa). The kappa curve was first studied by Gérard van Gutschoven around 1662. In the history of mathematics, it is remembered as one of the first examples of Isaac Barrow 's ...
