  2. Newton's identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_identities

    One can obtain explicit formulas for the above expressions in the form of determinants, by considering the first n of Newton's identities (or it counterparts for the complete homogeneous polynomials) as linear equations in which the elementary symmetric functions are known and the power sums are unknowns (or vice versa), and apply Cramer's rule ...

  3. Distribution (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In general, the transpose of a continuous linear map : is the linear map : ′ ′ (′):= ′, or equivalently, it is the unique map satisfying ′, = (′), for all and all ′ ′ (the prime symbol in ′ does not denote a derivative of any kind; it merely indicates that ′ is an element of the continuous dual space ′).

  4. General Leibniz rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Leibniz_rule

    The proof of the general Leibniz rule [2]: 68–69 proceeds by induction. Let f {\displaystyle f} and g {\displaystyle g} be n {\displaystyle n} -times differentiable functions. The base case when n = 1 {\displaystyle n=1} claims that: ( f g ) ′ = f ′ g + f g ′ , {\displaystyle (fg)'=f'g+fg',} which is the usual product rule and is known ...

  5. Proofs That Really Count - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofs_That_Really_Count

    Proofs That Really Count: the Art of Combinatorial Proof is an undergraduate-level mathematics book on combinatorial proofs of mathematical identies.That is, it concerns equations between two integer-valued formulas, shown to be equal either by showing that both sides of the equation count the same type of mathematical objects, or by finding a one-to-one correspondence between the different ...

  6. Projective representation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projective_representation

    In the field of representation theory in mathematics, a projective representation of a group G on a vector space V over a field F is a group homomorphism from G to the projective linear group = /, where GL(V) is the general linear group of invertible linear transformations of V over F, and F ∗ is the normal subgroup consisting of nonzero scalar multiples of the identity transformation (see ...

  7. Abel's identity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel's_identity

    The relation can be generalised to nth-order linear ordinary differential equations. The identity is named after the Norwegian mathematician Niels Henrik Abel . Since Abel's identity relates to the different linearly independent solutions of the differential equation, it can be used to find one solution from the other.

  8. General linear group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_linear_group

    In mathematics, the general linear group of degree n is the set of n×n invertible matrices, together with the operation of ordinary matrix multiplication.This forms a group, because the product of two invertible matrices is again invertible, and the inverse of an invertible matrix is invertible, with the identity matrix as the identity element of the group.

  9. List of set identities and relations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_set_identities_and...

    To investigate the left distributivity of set subtraction over unions or intersections, consider how the sets involved in (both of) De Morgan's laws are all related: () = = () always holds (the equalities on the left and right are De Morgan's laws) but equality is not guaranteed in general (that is, the containment might be strict).
