  2. Slope number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope_number

    The slope number of a graph of maximum degree d is clearly at least ⌈ / ⌉, because at most two of the incident edges at a degree-d vertex can share a slope. More precisely, the slope number is at least equal to the linear arboricity of the graph, since the edges of a single slope must form a linear forest, and the linear arboricity in turn is at least ⌈ / ⌉.

  3. Null graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Null_graph

    K 0 does fulfill most of the same basic graph properties as does K 1 (the graph with one vertex and no edges). As some examples, K 0 is of size zero, it is equal to its complement graph K 0, a forest, and a planar graph. It may be considered undirected, directed, or even both; when considered as directed, it is a directed acyclic graph.

  4. Log–log plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log–log_plot

    In science and engineering, a log–log graph or log–log plot is a two-dimensional graph of numerical data that uses logarithmic scales on both the horizontal and vertical axes. Power functions – relationships of the form y = a x k {\displaystyle y=ax^{k}} – appear as straight lines in a log–log graph, with the exponent corresponding to ...

  5. Asymptote - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptote

    The graph of a function with a horizontal (y = 0), vertical (x = 0), and oblique asymptote (purple line, given by y = 2x) A curve intersecting an asymptote infinitely many times In analytic geometry , an asymptote ( / ˈ æ s ɪ m p t oʊ t / ) of a curve is a line such that the distance between the curve and the line approaches zero as one or ...

  6. Critical point (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    If one considers the upper half circle as the graph of the function () =, then x = 0 is a critical point with critical value 1 due to the derivative being equal to 0, and x = ±1 are critical points with critical value 0 due to the derivative being undefined.

  7. Slope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slope

    Slope illustrated for y = (3/2)x − 1.Click on to enlarge Slope of a line in coordinates system, from f(x) = −12x + 2 to f(x) = 12x + 2. The slope of a line in the plane containing the x and y axes is generally represented by the letter m, [5] and is defined as the change in the y coordinate divided by the corresponding change in the x coordinate, between two distinct points on the line.

  8. Inflection point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflection_point

    An example of a stationary point of inflection is the point (0, 0) on the graph of y = x 3. The tangent is the x-axis, which cuts the graph at this point. An example of a non-stationary point of inflection is the point (0, 0) on the graph of y = x 3 + ax, for any nonzero a. The tangent at the origin is the line y = ax, which cuts the graph at ...

  9. Undefined (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    This operation is undefined in arithmetic, and therefore deductions based on division by zero can be contradictory. If we assume that a non-zero answer n {\displaystyle n} exists, when some number k ∣ k ≠ 0 {\displaystyle k\mid k\neq 0} is divided by zero, then that would imply that k = n × 0 {\displaystyle k=n\times 0} .
