  2. Extreme value theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_value_theorem

    The extreme value theorem was originally proven by Bernard Bolzano in the 1830s in a work Function Theory but the work remained unpublished until 1930. Bolzano's proof consisted of showing that a continuous function on a closed interval was bounded, and then showing that the function attained a maximum and a minimum value.

  3. Maximum and minimum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_and_minimum

    However, the normalised sinc function (blue) has arg min of {−1.43, 1.43}, approximately, because their global minima occur at x = ±1.43, even though the minimum value is the same. [7] In mathematics , the arguments of the maxima (abbreviated arg max or argmax) and arguments of the minima (abbreviated arg min or argmin) are the input points ...

  4. Parabola of safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola_of_safety

    Maximum height can be calculated by absolute value of in standard form of parabola. It is given as H = | c | = u 2 2 g {\displaystyle H=|c|={\frac {u^{2}}{2g}}} Range ( R {\displaystyle R} ) of the projectile can be calculated by the value of latus rectum of the parabola given shooting to the same level.

  5. Norm (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The absolute value | | is a norm on the vector space formed by the real or complex numbers. The complex numbers form a one-dimensional vector space over themselves and a two-dimensional vector space over the reals; the absolute value is a norm for these two structures.

  6. Least absolute deviations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_absolute_deviations

    Least absolute deviations (LAD), also known as least absolute errors (LAE), least absolute residuals (LAR), or least absolute values (LAV), is a statistical optimality criterion and a statistical optimization technique based on minimizing the sum of absolute deviations (also sum of absolute residuals or sum of absolute errors) or the L 1 norm of such values.

  7. p-adic valuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-adic_valuation

    The p-adic valuation is a valuation and gives rise to an analogue of the usual absolute value. Whereas the completion of the rational numbers with respect to the usual absolute value results in the real numbers R {\displaystyle \mathbb {R} } , the completion of the rational numbers with respect to the p {\displaystyle p} -adic absolute value ...

  8. Smooth maximum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smooth_maximum

    In many cases, a single family approximates both: maximum as the parameter goes to positive infinity, minimum as the parameter goes to negative infinity; in symbols, ⁠ ⁠ as ⁠ ⁠ and ⁠ ⁠ as ⁠ ⁠. The term can also be used loosely for a specific smooth function that behaves similarly to a maximum, without necessarily being part of a ...

  9. Template:Absolute value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Absolute_value

    This template may be used to enclose text between two vertical bars (U+007C | VERTICAL LINE), such as to denote the absolute value. It adds padding (of width 0.1 em) on each side inside the bars. It adds padding (of width 0.1 em) on each side inside the bars.
