  2. Gaussian integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_integral

    A different technique, which goes back to Laplace (1812), [3] is the following. Let = =. Since the limits on s as y → ±∞ depend on the sign of x, it simplifies the calculation to use the fact that e −x 2 is an even function, and, therefore, the integral over all real numbers is just twice the integral from zero to infinity.

  3. Fresnel integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_integral

    The sector contour used to calculate the limits of the Fresnel integrals. This can be derived with any one of several methods. One of them [5] uses a contour integral of the function around the boundary of the sector-shaped region in the complex plane formed by the positive x-axis, the bisector of the first quadrant y = x with x ≥ 0, and a circular arc of radius R centered at the origin.

  4. Integral curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_curve

    Suppose that F is a static vector field, that is, a vector-valued function with Cartesian coordinates (F 1,F 2,...,F n), and that x(t) is a parametric curve with Cartesian coordinates (x 1 (t),x 2 (t),...,x n (t)). Then x(t) is an integral curve of F if it is a solution of the autonomous system of ordinary differential equations,

  5. Contour integration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contour_integration

    The contour integral of a complex function: is a generalization of the integral for real-valued functions. For continuous functions in the complex plane , the contour integral can be defined in analogy to the line integral by first defining the integral along a directed smooth curve in terms of an integral over a real valued parameter.

  6. Cayley graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayley_graph

    In mathematics, a Cayley graph, also known as a Cayley color graph, Cayley diagram, group diagram, or color group, [1] is a graph that encodes the abstract structure of a group. Its definition is suggested by Cayley's theorem (named after Arthur Cayley ), and uses a specified set of generators for the group.

  7. Integral graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_graph

    In the mathematical field of graph theory, an integral graph is a graph whose adjacency matrix's spectrum consists entirely of integers. In other words, a graph is an integral graph if all of the roots of the characteristic polynomial of its adjacency matrix are integers. [1] The notion was introduced in 1974 by Frank Harary and Allen Schwenk. [2]

  8. Multiple integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_integral

    Just as the definite integral of a positive function of one variable represents the area of the region between the graph of the function and the x-axis, the double integral of a positive function of two variables represents the volume of the region between the surface defined by the function (on the three-dimensional Cartesian plane where z = f(x, y)) and the plane which contains its domain. [1]

  9. Kernel function for solving integral equation of surface ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_function_for...

    Kernel functions provide a way to manipulate data as though it were projected into a higher dimensional space, by operating on it in its original space. So that data in higher-dimensional space become more easily separable. Kernel function is also used in integral equation for surface radiation exchanges.
