  2. System of differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_differential...

    A differential system is a means of studying a system of partial differential equations using geometric ideas such as differential forms and vector fields. For example, the compatibility conditions of an overdetermined system of differential equations can be succinctly stated in terms of differential forms (i.e., for a form to be exact, it ...

  3. Rössler attractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rössler_attractor

    The Rössler attractor (/ ˈ r ɒ s l ər /) is the attractor for the Rössler system, a system of three non-linear ordinary differential equations originally studied by Otto Rössler in the 1970s. [1] [2] These differential equations define a continuous-time dynamical system that exhibits chaotic dynamics associated with the fractal properties ...

  4. Notation for differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notation_for_differentiation

    Assume that (x, y, z) is a given Cartesian coordinate system, that A is a vector field with components = (,,), and that = (,,) is a scalar field. The differential operator introduced by William Rowan Hamilton , written ∇ and called del or nabla, is symbolically defined in the form of a vector,

  5. Ordinary differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordinary_differential_equation

    In mathematics, an ordinary differential equation (ODE) is a differential equation (DE) dependent on only a single independent variable.As with any other DE, its unknown(s) consists of one (or more) function(s) and involves the derivatives of those functions. [1]

  6. Differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_equation

    In all these cases, y is an unknown function of x (or of x 1 and x 2), and f is a given function. He solves these examples and others using infinite series and discusses the non-uniqueness of solutions. Jacob Bernoulli proposed the Bernoulli differential equation in 1695. [3] This is an ordinary differential equation of the form

  7. Euler method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_method

    The exact solution of the differential equation is () =, so () =. Although the approximation of the Euler method was not very precise in this specific case, particularly due to a large value step size h {\displaystyle h} , its behaviour is qualitatively correct as the figure shows.

  8. Inexact differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inexact_differential

    An inexact differential is a differential for which the integral over some two paths with the same end points is different. Specifically, there exist integrable paths ,: [,] such that () = (), () = and In this case, we denote the integrals as | and | respectively to make explicit the path dependence of the change of the quantity we are considering as .

  9. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In terms of partition, 20 / 5 means the size of each of 5 parts into which a set of size 20 is divided. For example, 20 apples divide into five groups of four apples, meaning that "twenty divided by five is equal to four". This is denoted as 20 / 5 = 4, or ⁠ 20 / 5 ⁠ = 4. [2] In the example, 20 is the dividend, 5 is the divisor, and 4 is ...
