The function in example 1, a removable discontinuity. Consider the piecewise function = {< = >. The point = is a removable discontinuity.For this kind of discontinuity: The one-sided limit from the negative direction: = and the one-sided limit from the positive direction: + = + at both exist, are finite, and are equal to = = +.
A graph of a parabola with a removable singularity at x = 2 In complex analysis , a removable singularity of a holomorphic function is a point at which the function is undefined , but it is possible to redefine the function at that point in such a way that the resulting function is regular in a neighbourhood of that point.
In mathematics, Painlevé transcendents are solutions to certain nonlinear second-order ordinary differential equations in the complex plane with the Painlevé property (the only movable singularities are poles), but which are not generally solvable in terms of elementary functions.
The derivative at a non-essential singularity itself has a non-essential singularity, with increased by 1 (except if is 0 so that the singularity is removable). The point a {\displaystyle a} is an essential singularity of f {\displaystyle f} if it is neither a removable singularity nor a pole.
One of the basic principles of algebra is that one can multiply both sides of an equation by the same expression without changing the equation's solutions. However, strictly speaking, this is not true, in that multiplication by certain expressions may introduce new solutions that were not present before. For example, consider the following ...
Then f is a non-decreasing function on [a, b], which is continuous except for jump discontinuities at x n for n ≥ 1. In the case of finitely many jump discontinuities, f is a step function. The examples above are generalised step functions; they are very special cases of what are called jump functions or saltus-functions. [8] [9]
In mathematics, more specifically complex analysis, the residue is a complex number proportional to the contour integral of a meromorphic function along a path enclosing one of its singularities.
Many mathematical problems have been stated but not yet solved. These problems come from many areas of mathematics, such as theoretical physics, computer science, algebra, analysis, combinatorics, algebraic, differential, discrete and Euclidean geometries, graph theory, group theory, model theory, number theory, set theory, Ramsey theory, dynamical systems, and partial differential equations.
