  2. List of limits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_limits

    This is a list of limits for common functions such as elementary functions. In this article, the terms a , b and c are constants with respect to x . Limits for general functions

  3. Limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit

    Limit of a function (ε,_δ)-definition of limit, formal definition of the mathematical notion of limit; Limit of a sequence; One-sided limit, either of the two limits of a function as a specified point is approached from below or from above; Limit inferior and limit superior; Limit of a net; Limit point, in topological spaces; Limit (category ...

  4. Characterizations of the exponential function - Wikipedia

    Also, characterisations (1), (2), and (4) for apply directly for a complex number. Definition (3) presents a problem because there are non-equivalent paths along which one could integrate; but the equation of (3) should hold for any such path modulo 2 π i {\displaystyle 2\pi i} .

  5. Homotopy colimit and limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homotopy_colimit_and_limit

    In mathematics, especially in algebraic topology, the homotopy limit and colimit [1] pg 52 are variants of the notions of limit and colimit extended to the homotopy category (). The main idea is this: if we have a diagram

  6. One-sided limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-sided_limit

    The function () = + ⁡ (), where ⁡ denotes the sign function, has a left limit of , a right limit of +, and a function value of at the point =. In calculus, a one-sided limit refers to either one of the two limits of a function of a real variable as approaches a specified point either from the left or from the right.

  7. Direct limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_limit

    Forming the direct limit of this direct system yields the ring of symmetric functions. Let F be a C-valued sheaf on a topological space X. Fix a point x in X. The open neighborhoods of x form a directed set ordered by inclusion (U ≤ V if and only if U contains V). The corresponding direct system is (F(U), r U,V) where r is the

  8. Limiting case (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In electricity and magnetism, the long wavelength limit is the limiting case when the wavelength is much larger than the system size. In economics , two limiting cases of a demand curve or supply curve are those in which the elasticity is zero (the totally inelastic case) or infinity (the infinitely elastic case).

  9. Ultrarelativistic limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrarelativistic_limit

    Below are few ultrarelativistic approximations when .The rapidity is denoted : ⁡ Motion with constant proper acceleration: d ≈ e aτ /(2a), where d is the distance traveled, a = dφ/dτ is proper acceleration (with aτ ≫ 1), τ is proper time, and travel starts at rest and without changing direction of acceleration (see proper acceleration for more details).
