  2. Slope field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_field

    which can be interpreted geometrically as giving the slope of the tangent to the graph of the differential equation's solution (integral curve) at each point (x, y) as a function of the point coordinates. [3] It can be viewed as a creative way to plot a real-valued function of two real variables (,) as a

  3. Vector calculus identities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_calculus_identities

    In Cartesian coordinates, the divergence of a continuously differentiable vector field = + + is the scalar-valued function: ⁡ = = (, , ) (, , ) = + +.. As the name implies, the divergence is a (local) measure of the degree to which vectors in the field diverge.

  4. Carpet plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpet_plot

    A carpet plot with two independent variables and one dependent variable is often called a cheater plot for the use of a phantom "cheater" axis instead of the horizontal axis. As a result of this missing axis, the values can be shifted horizontally such that the intersections line up vertically.

  5. Lloyd's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lloyd's_algorithm

    Lloyd's algorithm starts by an initial placement of some number k of point sites in the input domain. In mesh-smoothing applications, these would be the vertices of the mesh to be smoothed; in other applications they may be placed at random or by intersecting a uniform triangular mesh of the appropriate size with the input domain.

  6. Scalar (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    A scalar is an element of a field which is used to define a vector space.In linear algebra, real numbers or generally elements of a field are called scalars and relate to vectors in an associated vector space through the operation of scalar multiplication (defined in the vector space), in which a vector can be multiplied by a scalar in the defined way to produce another vector.

  7. Scalar field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_field

    A scalar field is a tensor field of order zero, [3] and the term "scalar field" may be used to distinguish a function of this kind with a more general tensor field, density, or differential form. The scalar field of ⁡ ((+)) oscillating as increases. Red represents positive values, purple represents negative values, and sky blue represents ...

  8. Laplacian matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplacian_matrix

    In the matrix notation, the adjacency matrix of the undirected graph could, e.g., be defined as a Boolean sum of the adjacency matrix of the original directed graph and its matrix transpose, where the zero and one entries of are treated as logical, rather than numerical, values, as in the following example:

  9. Scatter plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scatter_plot

    A plot located on the intersection of row and j th column is a plot of variables X i versus X j. [10] This means that each row and column is one dimension, and each cell plots a scatter plot of two dimensions. [citation needed] A generalized scatter plot matrix [11] offers a range of displays of paired combinations of categorical and ...
