  2. Sextic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sextic_equation

    Sextic equation. Graph of a sextic function, with 6 real roots (crossings of the x axis) and 5 critical points. Depending on the number and vertical locations of minima and maxima, the sextic could have 6, 4, 2, or no real roots. The number of complex roots equals 6 minus the number of real roots. In algebra, a sextic (or hexic) polynomial is a ...

  3. Uniform continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_continuity

    In the definitions, the difference between uniform continuity and continuity is that, in uniform continuity there is a globally applicable (the size of a neighbourhood in over which values of the metric for function values in are less than ) that depends on only while in continuity there is a locally applicable that depends on the both and .

  4. Hemicontinuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemicontinuity

    In mathematics, upper hemicontinuity and lower hemicontinuity are extensions of the notions of upper and lower semicontinuity of single-valued functions to set-valued functions. A set-valued function that is both upper and lower hemicontinuous is said to be continuous in an analogy to the property of the same name for single-valued functions.

  5. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    t. e. In mathematics, a function from a set X to a set Y assigns to each element of X exactly one element of Y. [1] The set X is called the domain of the function [2] and the set Y is called the codomain of the function. [3] Functions were originally the idealization of how a varying quantity depends on another quantity.

  6. Degree (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_(graph_theory)

    In graph theory, the degree (or valency) of a vertex of a graph is the number of edges that are incident to the vertex; in a multigraph, a loop contributes 2 to a vertex's degree, for the two ends of the edge. [1] The degree of a vertex is denoted or . The maximum degree of a graph is denoted by , and is the maximum of 's vertices' degrees.

  7. Murder in United States law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_in_United_States_law

    In the United States, the law for murder varies by jurisdiction. In many US jurisdictions there is a hierarchy of acts, known collectively as homicide, of which first-degree murder and felony murder [1] are the most serious, followed by second-degree murder and, in a few states, third-degree murder, which in other states is divided into voluntary manslaughter, and involuntary manslaughter such ...

  8. Kuratowski's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuratowski's_theorem

    In graph theory, Kuratowski's theorem is a mathematical forbidden graph characterization of planar graphs, named after Kazimierz Kuratowski. It states that a finite graph is planar if and only if it does not contain a subgraph that is a subdivision of (the complete graph on five vertices) or of (a complete bipartite graph on six vertices, three ...

  9. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    Therefore, let f(x) = g(x) = 2x + 1. Then, f(x)g(x) = 4x 2 + 4x + 1 = 1. Thus deg(f⋅g) = 0 which is not greater than the degrees of f and g (which each had degree 1). Since the norm function is not defined for the zero element of the ring, we consider the degree of the polynomial f(x) = 0 to also be undefined so that it follows the rules of a ...
