  2. Riemann sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_sum

    Loosely speaking, a function is Riemann integrable if all Riemann sums converge as the partition "gets finer and finer". While not derived as a Riemann sum, taking the average of the left and right Riemann sums is the trapezoidal rule and gives a trapezoidal sum. It is one of the simplest of a very general way of approximating integrals using ...

  3. Partition of an interval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_of_an_interval

    A partition of an interval being used in a Riemann sum. The partition itself is shown in grey at the bottom, with the norm of the partition indicated in red. In mathematics, a partition of an interval [a, b] on the real line is a finite sequence x 0, x 1, x 2, …, x n of real numbers such that a = x 0 < x 1 < x 2 < … < x n = b.

  4. Riemann integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann_integral

    One popular restriction is the use of "left-hand" and "right-hand" Riemann sums. In a left-hand Riemann sum, t i = x i for all i, and in a right-hand Riemann sum, t i = x i + 1 for all i. Alone this restriction does not impose a problem: we can refine any partition in a way that makes it a left-hand or right-hand sum by subdividing it at each t i.

  5. Trapezoidal rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_rule

    The trapezoidal rule may be viewed as the result obtained by averaging the left and right Riemann sums, and is sometimes defined this way. The integral can be even better approximated by partitioning the integration interval, applying the trapezoidal rule to each subinterval, and summing the results. In practice, this "chained" (or "composite ...

  6. Darboux integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darboux_integral

    From the previous fact, Riemann integrals are at least as strong as Darboux integrals: if the Darboux integral exists, then the upper and lower Darboux sums corresponding to a sufficiently fine partition will be close to the value of the integral, so any Riemann sum over the same partition will also be close to the value of the integral.

  7. Riemann–Stieltjes integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riemann–Stieltjes_integral

    The Riemann–Stieltjes integral admits integration by parts in the form () = () () ()and the existence of either integral implies the existence of the other. [2]On the other hand, a classical result [3] shows that the integral is well-defined if f is α-Hölder continuous and g is β-Hölder continuous with α + β > 1 .

  8. Equidistributed sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equidistributed_sequence

    For example, if a sequence is equidistributed in [0, 2], since the interval [0.5, 0.9] occupies 1/5 of the length of the interval [0, 2], as n becomes large, the proportion of the first n members of the sequence which fall between 0.5 and 0.9 must approach 1/5. Loosely speaking, one could say that each member of the sequence is equally likely ...

  9. Antiderivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiderivative

    The slope field of () = +, showing three of the infinitely many solutions that can be produced by varying the arbitrary constant c.. In calculus, an antiderivative, inverse derivative, primitive function, primitive integral or indefinite integral [Note 1] of a continuous function f is a differentiable function F whose derivative is equal to the original function f.
