  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. Power rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_rule

    Since differentiation is a linear operation on the space of differentiable functions, polynomials can also be differentiated using this rule. The power rule underlies the Taylor series as it relates a power series with a function's derivatives .

  4. 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).

  5. Notation for differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notation_for_differentiation

    D-notation leaves implicit the variable with respect to which differentiation is being done. However, this variable can also be made explicit by putting its name as a subscript: if f is a function of a variable x, this is done by writing [6] for the first derivative, for the second derivative,

  6. Differential calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_calculus

    This states that differentiation is the reverse process to integration. Differentiation has applications in nearly all quantitative disciplines. In physics, the derivative of the displacement of a moving body with respect to time is the velocity of the body, and the derivative of the velocity with respect to time is acceleration.

  7. Backward differentiation formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_differentiation...

    The backward differentiation formula (BDF) is a family of implicit methods for the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations.They are linear multistep methods that, for a given function and time, approximate the derivative of that function using information from already computed time points, thereby increasing the accuracy of the approximation.

  8. Exact differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_differential

    In multivariate calculus, a differential or differential form is said to be exact or perfect (exact differential), as contrasted with an inexact differential, if it is equal to the general differential for some differentiable function in an orthogonal coordinate system (hence is a multivariable function whose variables are independent, as they are always expected to be when treated in ...

  9. Backward Euler method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_Euler_method

    In numerical analysis and scientific computing, the backward Euler method (or implicit Euler method) is one of the most basic numerical methods for the solution of ordinary differential equations. It is similar to the (standard) Euler method , but differs in that it is an implicit method .
