  2. Limit of a function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_a_function

    In particular, one can no longer talk about the limit of a function at a point, but rather a limit or the set of limits at a point. A function is continuous at a limit point p of and in its domain if and only if f(p) is the (or, in the general case, a) limit of f(x) as x tends to p. There is another type of limit of a function, namely the ...

    For example, if g(x) is ... This is known as the squeeze theorem. [1] [2] ... In general, any infinite series is the limit of its partial sums. For example, ...

  4. Central limit theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_limit_theorem

    An important example of a log-concave density is a function constant inside a given convex body and vanishing outside; it corresponds to the uniform distribution on the convex body, which explains the term "central limit theorem for convex bodies".

    For example, it is possible to construct a sequence of continuous functions which has a discontinuous pointwise limit. Another notion of convergence is uniform convergence . The uniform distance between two functions f , g : E → R {\displaystyle f,g:E\rightarrow \mathbb {R} } is the maximum difference between the two functions as the argument ...

  6. Iterated limit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iterated_limit

    In multivariable calculus, an iterated limit is a limit of a sequence or a limit of a function in the form , = (,), (,) = ((,)),or other similar forms. An iterated limit is only defined for an expression whose value depends on at least two variables. To evaluate such a limit, one takes the limiting process as one of the two variables approaches some number, getting an expression whose value ...

    This section illustrates the central limit theorem via an example for which the computation can be done quickly by hand on paper, unlike the more computing-intensive example of the previous section. Sum of all permutations of length 1 selected from the set of integers 1, 2, 3

  9. Limit (category theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_(category_theory)

    The existence theorem for limits states that if a category C has equalizers and all products indexed by the classes Ob(J) and Hom(J), then C has all limits of shape J. [1]: §V.2 Thm.1 In this case, the limit of a diagram F : J → C can be constructed as the equalizer of the two morphisms [1]: §V.2 Thm.2
