A standing wave. The red dots are the wave nodes. A node is a point along a standing wave where the wave has minimum amplitude. For instance, in a vibrating guitar string, the ends of the string are nodes. By changing the position of the end node through frets, the guitarist changes the effective length of the vibrating string and thereby the ...
The function F defined on the unit disk by F(re iθ) = (f ∗ P r)(e iθ) is harmonic, and M f is the radial maximal function of F. When M f belongs to L p (T) and p ≥ 1, the distribution f "is" a function in L p (T), namely the boundary value of F. For p ≥ 1, the real Hardy space H p (T) is a subset of L p (T).
A strange loop is a hierarchy of levels, each of which is linked to at least one other by some type of relationship. A strange loop hierarchy is "tangled" (Hofstadter refers to this as a "heterarchy"), in that there is no well defined highest or lowest level; moving through the levels, one eventually returns to the starting point, i.e., the original level.
A radial function is a function : [,).When paired with a norm on a vector space ‖ ‖: [,), a function of the form = (‖ ‖) is said to be a radial kernel centered at .A radial function and the associated radial kernels are said to be radial basis functions if, for any finite set of nodes {} =, all of the following conditions are true:
The interpolant takes the form of a weighted sum of radial basis functions. [1] [2] RBF interpolation is a mesh-free method, meaning the nodes (points in the domain) need not lie on a structured grid, and does not require the formation of a mesh. It is often spectrally accurate [3] and stable for large numbers of nodes even in high dimensions.
Radial functions are contrasted with spherical functions, and any descent function (e.g., continuous and rapidly decreasing) on Euclidean space can be decomposed into a series consisting of radial and spherical parts: the solid spherical harmonic expansion. A function is radial if and only if it is invariant under all rotations leaving the ...
In mathematics, a loop in a topological space X is a continuous function f from the unit interval I = [0,1] to X such that f(0) = f(1). In other words, it is a path whose initial point is equal to its terminal point.
Notice that the norm used in the definition can be any norm defined on , and that the behavior of the function along the axes does not necessarily reveal that it is radially unbounded or not; i.e. to be radially unbounded the condition must be verified along any path that results in: ‖ ‖
