  2. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    The function e (−1/x 2) is not analytic at x = 0: the Taylor series is identically 0, although the function is not. If f ( x ) is given by a convergent power series in an open disk centred at b in the complex plane (or an interval in the real line), it is said to be analytic in this region.

  3. Chebyshev polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_polynomials

    Plot of the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind () with = in the complex plane from -2-2i to 2+2i with colors created with Mathematica 13.1 function ComplexPlot3D. The Chebyshev polynomials are two sequences of polynomials related to the cosine and sine functions, notated as () and ().

  4. Tensor product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensor_product

    The tensor product of two vector spaces is a vector space that is defined up to an isomorphism.There are several equivalent ways to define it. Most consist of defining explicitly a vector space that is called a tensor product, and, generally, the equivalence proof results almost immediately from the basic properties of the vector spaces that are so defined.

  5. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    for some polynomial p k of degree 2(k − 1). The function tends to zero faster than any polynomial as , so f is infinitely many times differentiable and f (k) (0) = 0 for every positive integer k. The above results all hold in this case:

  6. Levi-Civita symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levi-Civita_symbol

    In two dimensions, the Levi-Civita symbol is defined by: = {+ (,) = (,) (,) = (,) = The values can be arranged into a 2 × 2 antisymmetric matrix: = (). Use of the two-dimensional symbol is common in condensed matter, and in certain specialized high-energy topics like supersymmetry [1] and twistor theory, [2] where it appears in the context of 2-spinors.

  7. Invariants of tensors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invariants_of_tensors

    These are the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of the deviator (() /), such that it is traceless. The separation of a tensor into a component that is a multiple of the identity and a traceless component is standard in hydrodynamics, where the former is called isotropic, providing the modified pressure, and the latter is called ...

  8. Multipole expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipole_expansion

    In principle, a multipole expansion provides an exact description of the potential, and generally converges under two conditions: (1) if the sources (e.g. charges) are localized close to the origin and the point at which the potential is observed is far from the origin; or (2) the reverse, i.e., if the sources are located far from the origin ...

  9. Computational complexity of mathematical operations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_complexity...

    Here we consider operations over polynomials and n denotes their degree; for the coefficients we use a unit-cost model, ignoring the number of bits in a number. In practice this means that we assume them to be machine integers.
