  2. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    When p = ±3, the above values of t 0 are sometimes called the Chebyshev cube root. [29] More precisely, the values involving cosines and hyperbolic cosines define, when p = −3, the same analytic function denoted C 1/3 (q), which is the proper Chebyshev cube root. The value involving hyperbolic sines is similarly denoted S 1/3 (q), when p = 3.

  3. nth root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nth_root

    For n equal to 2 this is called the principal square root and the n is omitted. The nth root can also be represented using exponentiation as x 1/n. For even values of n, positive numbers also have a negative nth root, while negative numbers do not have a real nth root. For odd values of n, every negative number x has a real negative nth root.

  4. Cube (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_(algebra)

    The cube operation can also be defined for any other mathematical expression, for example (x + 1) 3. The cube is also the number multiplied by its square: n 3 = n × n 2 = n × n × n. The cube function is the function x ↦ x 3 (often denoted y = x 3) that maps a number to its cube. It is an odd function, as (−n) 3 = −(n 3).

  5. Cubic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_function

    Firstly, if one knows, for example by physical measurement, the values of a function and its derivative at some sampling points, one can interpolate the function with a continuously differentiable function, which is a piecewise cubic function. If the value of a function is known at several points, cubic interpolation consists in approximating ...

  6. Hamming distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance

    For a fixed length n, the Hamming distance is a metric on the set of the words of length n (also known as a Hamming space), as it fulfills the conditions of non-negativity, symmetry, the Hamming distance of two words is 0 if and only if the two words are identical, and it satisfies the triangle inequality as well: [2] Indeed, if we fix three words a, b and c, then whenever there is a ...

  7. Cube root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_root

    The cube root is a multivalued function. The principal cube root is its principal value, that is a unique cube root that has been chosen once for all. The principal cube root is the cube root with the largest real part. In the case of negative real numbers, the largest real part is shared by the two nonreal cube roots, and the principal cube ...

  8. Tricubic interpolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricubic_interpolation

    The term tricubic interpolation is used in more than one context; some experiments measure both the value of a function and its spatial derivatives, and it is desirable to interpolate preserving the values and the measured derivatives at the grid points. Those provide 32 constraints on the coefficients, and another 32 constraints can be ...

  9. Equality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    The equals sign, used to represent equality symbolically in an equation. In mathematics, equality is a relationship between two quantities or expressions, stating that they have the same value, or represent the same mathematical object. [1] [2] Equality between A and B is written A = B, and pronounced "A equals B".
