  2. Limit of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function

    One of the advantages of working with non-deleted limits is that they allow to state the theorem about limits of compositions without any constraints on the functions (other than the existence of their non-deleted limits). [10] Bartle [9] notes that although by "limit" some authors do mean this non-deleted limit, deleted limits are the most ...

  3. Limit inferior and limit superior - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_inferior_and_limit...

    In mathematics, the limit inferior and limit superior of a sequence can be thought of as limiting (that is, eventual and extreme) bounds on the sequence. They can be thought of in a similar fashion for a function (see limit of a function). For a set, they are the infimum and supremum of the set's limit points, respectively. In general, when ...

  4. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    Limit of a function. One-sided limit: either of the two limits of functions of a real variable x, as x approaches a point from above or below; List of limits: list of limits for common functions; Squeeze theorem: finds a limit of a function via comparison with two other functions; Limit superior and limit inferior; Modes of convergence. An ...

  5. List of limits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_limits

    This is a list of limits for common functions such as elementary functions. In this article, the terms a , b and c are constants with respect to x . Limits for general functions

  6. Indeterminate form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indeterminate_form

    Indeterminate form is a mathematical expression that can obtain any value depending on circumstances. In calculus, it is usually possible to compute the limit of the sum, difference, product, quotient or power of two functions by taking the corresponding combination of the separate limits of each respective function.

  7. Squeeze theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze_theorem

    Illustration of the squeeze theorem When a sequence lies between two other converging sequences with the same limit, it also converges to this limit.. In calculus, the squeeze theorem (also known as the sandwich theorem, among other names [a]) is a theorem regarding the limit of a function that is bounded between two other functions.

  8. Set-theoretic limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-theoretic_limit

    In mathematics, the limit of a sequence of sets,, … (subsets of a common set ) is a set whose elements are determined by the sequence in either of two equivalent ways: (1) by upper and lower bounds on the sequence that converge monotonically to the same set (analogous to convergence of real-valued sequences) and (2) by convergence of a sequence of indicator functions which are themselves ...

  9. Limit (category theory) - Wikipedia

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

    create limits for F if whenever (L, φ) is a limit of GF there exists a unique cone (L′, φ′) to F such that G(L′, φ′) = (L, φ), and furthermore, this cone is a limit of F. reflect limits for F if each cone to F whose image under G is a limit of GF is already a limit of F. Dually, one can define creation and reflection of colimits.
