In matrix calculus, Jacobi's formula expresses the derivative of the determinant of a matrix A in terms of the adjugate of A and the derivative of A. [ 1 ] If A is a differentiable map from the real numbers to n × n matrices, then
The multiplication factor, k, is defined as (see nuclear chain reaction): k = number of neutrons in one generation / number of neutrons in preceding generation . If k is greater than 1, the chain reaction is supercritical, and the neutron population will grow exponentially.
Let be a function in the Lebesgue space ([,]).We say that in ([,]) is a weak derivative of if ′ = ()for all infinitely differentiable functions with () = =.. Generalizing to dimensions, if and are in the space () of locally integrable functions for some open set, and if is a multi-index, we say that is the -weak derivative of if
At the remaining critical point (0, 0) the second derivative test is insufficient, and one must use higher order tests or other tools to determine the behavior of the function at this point. (In fact, one can show that f takes both positive and negative values in small neighborhoods around (0, 0) and so this point is a saddle point of f .)
By Darboux's theorem, the derivative of any differentiable function is a Darboux function. In particular, the derivative of the function x ↦ x 2 sin ( 1 / x ) {\displaystyle x\mapsto x^{2}\sin(1/x)} is a Darboux function even though it is not continuous at one point.
Working in a coordinate chart with coordinates (,,,) labelled 1 to 4 respectively, we begin with the metric in its most general form (10 independent components, each of which is a smooth function of 4 variables).
"American Nightmare" victims Denise Huskins and Aaron Quinn worked with two small-town law enforcement officials to get kidnapper Matthew Muller to confess to more cold case crimes.
Eventually they cut a hole in a steam pipe and used the pipe to escape from the prison into the city sewer, with tools obtained from two cooperating prison employees. Nearly three weeks after the escape, Matt was found in Malone, New York, where he was shot and killed; [2] two days after that, Sweat was shot and taken into custody. [3]
