  2. Differential structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_structure

    In particular, a C k-atlas that is C 0-compatible with a C 0-atlas that defines a topological manifold is said to determine a C k differential structure on the topological manifold. The C k equivalence classes of such atlases are the distinct C k differential structures of the manifold. Each distinct differential structure is determined by a ...

  3. Time-scale calculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-scale_calculus

    The study of dynamic equations on time scales reveals such discrepancies, and helps avoid proving results twice—once for differential equations and once again for difference equations. The general idea is to prove a result for a dynamic equation where the domain of the unknown function is a so-called time scale (also known as a time-set ...

  4. Differentiable manifold - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiable_manifold

    Given a differentiable atlas on a topological space, one says that a chart is differentiably compatible with the atlas, or differentiable relative to the given atlas, if the inclusion of the chart into the collection of charts comprising the given differentiable atlas results in a differentiable atlas.

  5. Differentiable programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiable_programming

    Most differentiable programming frameworks work by constructing a graph containing the control flow and data structures in the program. [7] Attempts generally fall into two groups: Static, compiled graph-based approaches such as TensorFlow, [note 1] Theano, and MXNet.

  6. Classification of manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of_manifolds

    A topological manifold that is in the image of is said to "admit a differentiable structure", and the fiber over a given topological manifold is "the different differentiable structures on the given topological manifold". Thus given two categories, the two natural questions are:

  7. Spaces of test functions and distributions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spaces_of_test_functions...

    The above characterizations can be used to determine whether or not a linear functional is a distribution, but more advanced uses of distributions and test functions (such as applications to differential equations) is limited if no topologies are placed on () and ().

  8. Finite difference method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference_method

    For example, consider the ordinary differential equation ′ = + The Euler method for solving this equation uses the finite difference quotient (+) ′ to approximate the differential equation by first substituting it for u'(x) then applying a little algebra (multiplying both sides by h, and then adding u(x) to both sides) to get (+) + (() +).

  9. Numerical differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_differentiation

    The classical finite-difference approximations for numerical differentiation are ill-conditioned. However, if is a holomorphic function, real-valued on the real line, which can be evaluated at points in the complex plane near , then there are stable methods.
