  2. Implicit function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function

    An implicit function is a function that is defined by an implicit equation, that relates one of the variables, considered as the value of the function, with the others considered as the arguments. [ 1 ] : 204–206 For example, the equation x 2 + y 2 − 1 = 0 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}-1=0} of the unit circle defines y as an implicit function ...

  3. Implicit function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function_theorem

    The unit circle can be specified as the level curve f(x, y) = 1 of the function f(x, y) = x 2 + y 2.Around point A, y can be expressed as a function y(x).In this example this function can be written explicitly as () =; in many cases no such explicit expression exists, but one can still refer to the implicit function y(x).

  4. Explicit and implicit methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_and_implicit_methods

    For such problems, to achieve given accuracy, it takes much less computational time to use an implicit method with larger time steps, even taking into account that one needs to solve an equation of the form (1) at each time step. That said, whether one should use an explicit or implicit method depends upon the problem to be solved.

  5. Glossary of calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_calculus

    An implicit function is a function that is defined implicitly by an implicit equation, by associating one of the variables (the value) with the others (the arguments). [ 56 ] : 204–206 Thus, an implicit function for y {\displaystyle y} in the context of the unit circle is defined implicitly by x 2 + f ( x ) 2 − 1 = 0 {\displaystyle x^{2}+f ...

  6. Surface (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    An implicit surface in a Euclidean space (or, more generally, in an affine space) of dimension 3 is the set of the common zeros of a differentiable function of three variables (,,) = Implicit means that the equation defines implicitly one of the variables as a function of the other variables.

  7. Implicit curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_curve

    In mathematics, an implicit curve is a plane curve defined by an implicit equation relating two coordinate variables, commonly x and y. For example, the unit circle is defined by the implicit equation x 2 + y 2 = 1 {\displaystyle x^{2}+y^{2}=1} .

  8. Critical point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    This means that the tangent of the curve is parallel to the y-axis, and that, at this point, g does not define an implicit function from x to y (see implicit function theorem). If (x 0, y 0) is such a critical point, then x 0 is the corresponding critical value.

  9. Talk:Implicit function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Implicit_function

    In mathematics, an implicit definition of a function is a way of using an equation to specify the values of the function. It contrasts with an explicit definition of a function. In this context, the term implicit function can refer to either the equation (i.e. the relation) or the resulting function. [1]
