  2. Inverse limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_limit

    The inverse limit of this system is an object X in C together with morphisms π i: X → X i (called projections) satisfying π i = ∘ π j for all i ≤ j. The pair ( X , π i ) must be universal in the sense that for any other such pair ( Y , ψ i ) there exists a unique morphism u : Y → X such that the diagram

  3. Limit (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_(category_theory)

    The limit of F is called an inverse limit or projective limit. If J = 1, the category with a single object and morphism, then a diagram of shape J is essentially just an object X of C. A cone to an object X is just a morphism with codomain X. A morphism f : Y → X is a limit of the diagram X if and only if f is an isomorphism.

  4. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Limit (mathematics) In mathematics, a limit is the value that a function (or sequence) approaches as the argument (or index) approaches some value. [1] Limits of functions are essential to calculus and mathematical analysis, and are used to define continuity, derivatives, and integrals. The concept of a limit of a sequence is further ...

  5. Tetration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetration

    The limit, should it exist, is a positive real solution of the equation y = x y. Thus, x = y 1/y. The limit defining the infinite exponential of x does not exist when x > e 1/e because the maximum of y 1/y is e 1/e. The limit also fails to exist when 0 < x < e −e. This may be extended to complex numbers z with the definition:

  6. Inverse trigonometric functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_trigonometric...

    e. In mathematics, the inverse trigonometric functions (occasionally also called antitrigonometric, [1] cyclometric, [2] or arcus functions [3]) are the inverse functions of the trigonometric functions, under suitably restricted domains. Specifically, they are the inverses of the sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant, and cosecant functions ...

  7. Inverse hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_hyperbolic_functions

    Inverse hyperbolic functions. The hyperbolic functions sinh, cosh, and tanh with respect to a unit hyperbola are analogous to circular functions sin, cos, tan with respect to a unit circle. The argument to the hyperbolic functions is a hyperbolic angle measure. In mathematics, the inverse hyperbolic functions are inverses of the hyperbolic ...

  8. Divergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divergence

    It can be shown that the above limit always converges to the same value for any sequence of volumes that contain x 0 and approach zero volume. The result, div F, is a scalar function of x. Since this definition is coordinate-free, it shows that the divergence is the same in any coordinate system. However it is not often used practically to ...

  9. Detection limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detection_limit

    The limit of detection (LOD or LoD) is the lowest signal, or the lowest corresponding quantity to be determined (or extracted) from the signal, that can be observed with a sufficient degree of confidence or statistical significance. However, the exact threshold (level of decision) used to decide when a signal significantly emerges above the ...
