  2. Change of variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Change_of_variables

    In mathematics, a change of variables is a basic technique used to simplify problems in which the original variables are replaced with functions of other variables. The intent is that when expressed in new variables, the problem may become simpler, or equivalent to a better understood problem.

  3. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.

  4. Change of variables (PDE) - Wikipedia

    If we know that (,) satisfies an equation (like the Black–Scholes equation) we are guaranteed that we can make good use of the equation in the derivation of the equation for a new function (,) defined in terms of the old if we write the old V as a function of the new v and write the new and x as functions of the old t and S.

  5. Lagrange multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_multiplier

    For example, in economics the optimal profit to a player is calculated subject to a constrained space of actions, where a Lagrange multiplier is the change in the optimal value of the objective function (profit) due to the relaxation of a given constraint (e.g. through a change in income); in such a context is the marginal cost of the ...

    The formula calculator concept can be applied to all types of calculator, including arithmetic, scientific, statistics, financial and conversion calculators. The calculation can be typed or pasted into an edit box of: A software package that runs on a computer, for example as a dialog box. An on-line formula calculator hosted on a web site.

  7. Simplex algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplex_algorithm

    The second equation may be used to eliminate from the linear program. In this way, all lower bound constraints may be changed to non-negativity restrictions. Second, for each remaining inequality constraint, a new variable, called a slack variable, is introduced to change the constraint to an equality constraint. This variable represents the ...

  8. Curve fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curve_fitting

    Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Curve fitting can involve either interpolation , [ 6 ] [ 7 ] where an exact fit to the data is required, or smoothing , [ 8 ] [ 9 ] in which a "smooth ...

  9. Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_optimization

    It studies the case in which the optimization strategy is based on splitting the problem into smaller subproblems. The equation that describes the relationship between these subproblems is called the Bellman equation. Mathematical programming with equilibrium constraints is where the constraints include variational inequalities or ...
