  2. List of mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_functions

    Thomae's function: is a function that is continuous at all irrational numbers and discontinuous at all rational numbers. It is also a modification of Dirichlet function and sometimes called Riemann function. Kronecker delta function: is a function of two variables, usually integers, which is 1 if they are equal, and 0 otherwise.

  3. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Function spaces play a fundamental role in advanced mathematical analysis, by allowing the use of their algebraic and topological properties for studying properties of functions. For example, all theorems of existence and uniqueness of solutions of ordinary or partial differential equations result of the study of function spaces.

  5. Operator theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operator_theory

    In mathematics, operator theory is the study of linear operators on function spaces, beginning with differential operators and integral operators.The operators may be presented abstractly by their characteristics, such as bounded linear operators or closed operators, and consideration may be given to nonlinear operators.

  6. Functional (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    At the same time, the mapping of a function to the value of the function at a point is a functional; here, is a parameter. Provided that f {\displaystyle f} is a linear function from a vector space to the underlying scalar field, the above linear maps are dual to each other, and in functional analysis both are called linear functionals .

  7. Higher-order function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher-order_function

    In mathematics and computer science, a higher-order function (HOF) is a function that does at least one of the following: takes one or more functions as arguments (i.e. a procedural parameter, which is a parameter of a procedure that is itself a procedure), returns a function or value as its result. All other functions are first-order functions.

  8. Elementary function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_function

    In mathematics, an elementary function is a function of a single variable (typically real or complex) that is defined as taking sums, products, roots and compositions of finitely many polynomial, rational, trigonometric, hyperbolic, and exponential functions, and their inverses (e.g., arcsin, log, or x 1/n).

  9. Domain of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_of_a_function

    A function f from X to Y. The set of points in the red oval X is the domain of f. Graph of the real-valued square root function, f(x) = √ x, whose domain consists of all nonnegative real numbers. In mathematics, the domain of a function is the set of inputs accepted by the function.
