  2. Quadratic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_function

    The square root of a univariate quadratic function gives rise to one of the four conic sections, almost always either to an ellipse or to a hyperbola. If a > 0 , {\displaystyle a>0,} then the equation y = ± a x 2 + b x + c {\displaystyle y=\pm {\sqrt {ax^{2}+bx+c}}} describes a hyperbola, as can be seen by squaring both sides.

  3. Quadratic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_equation

    The function f(x) = ax 2 + bx + c is a quadratic function. [16] The graph of any quadratic function has the same general shape, which is called a parabola. The location and size of the parabola, and how it opens, depend on the values of a, b, and c. If a > 0, the parabola has a minimum point and opens upward.

  4. Completing the square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completing_the_square

    In elementary algebra, completing the square is a technique for converting a quadratic polynomial of the form ⁠ + + ⁠ to the form ⁠ + ⁠ for some values of ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠. [1] In terms of a new quantity ⁠ x − h {\displaystyle x-h} ⁠ , this expression is a quadratic polynomial with no linear term.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mnemonics

    The mnemonic "LIATE" is commonly used to determine which functions are to be chosen as u and DV in integration by parts. Logarithmic functions; Inverse trigonometric functions; Algebraic functions; Trigonometric functions; Exponential functions

  6. Square-integrable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square-integrable_function

    An equivalent definition is to say that the square of the function itself (rather than of its absolute value) is Lebesgue integrable.For this to be true, the integrals of the positive and negative portions of the real part must both be finite, as well as those for the imaginary part.

  7. Quadratic form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_form

    The pair (V, Q) consisting of a finite-dimensional vector space V over K and a quadratic map Q from V to K is called a quadratic space, and B as defined here is the associated symmetric bilinear form of Q. The notion of a quadratic space is a coordinate-free version of the notion of quadratic form.

  8. Degree of a polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_a_polynomial

    For an example of why the degree function may fail over a ring that is not a field, take the following example. Let R = /, the ring of integers modulo 4. This ring is not a field (and is not even an integral domain) because 2 × 2 = 4 ≡ 0 (mod 4). Therefore, let f(x) = g(x) = 2x + 1.

  9. Quadratic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_programming

    The quadratic programming problem with n variables and m constraints can be formulated as follows. [2] Given: a real-valued, n-dimensional vector c, an n×n-dimensional real symmetric matrix Q, an m×n-dimensional real matrix A, and; an m-dimensional real vector b, the objective of quadratic programming is to find an n-dimensional vector x ...
