  2. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem

    The Taylor series of f converges uniformly to the zero function T f (x) = 0, which is analytic with all coefficients equal to zero. The function f is unequal to this Taylor series, and hence non-analytic. For any order k ∈ N and radius r > 0 there exists M k,r > 0 satisfying the remainder bound above.

  3. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    That is, the Taylor series diverges at x if the distance between x and b is larger than the radius of convergence. The Taylor series can be used to calculate the value of an entire function at every point, if the value of the function, and of all of its derivatives, are known at a single point. Uses of the Taylor series for analytic functions ...

  4. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_methods_for...

    The step size is =. The same illustration for = The midpoint method converges faster than the Euler method, as .. Numerical methods for ordinary differential equations are methods used to find numerical approximations to the solutions of ordinary differential equations (ODEs).

  5. Linear approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_approximation

    Given a twice continuously differentiable function of one real variable, Taylor's theorem for the case = states that = + ′ () + where is the remainder term. The linear approximation is obtained by dropping the remainder: f ( x ) ≈ f ( a ) + f ′ ( a ) ( x − a ) . {\displaystyle f(x)\approx f(a)+f'(a)(x-a).}

  6. Nonelementary integral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonelementary_Integral

    Nonelementary antiderivatives can often be evaluated using Taylor series. Even if a function has no elementary antiderivative, its Taylor series can always be integrated term-by-term like a polynomial, giving the antiderivative function as a Taylor series with the same radius of convergence. However, even if the integrand has a convergent ...

  7. Lagrange inversion theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_inversion_theorem

    Faà di Bruno's formula gives coefficients of the composition of two formal power series in terms of the coefficients of those two series. Equivalently, it is a formula for the nth derivative of a composite function. Lagrange reversion theorem for another theorem sometimes called the inversion theorem; Formal power series#The Lagrange inversion ...

  8. Delta method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_method

    The intuition of the delta method is that any such g function, in a "small enough" range of the function, can be approximated via a first order Taylor series (which is basically a linear function). If the random variable is roughly normal then a linear transformation of it is also normal. Small range can be achieved when approximating the ...

  9. Analytic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_function

    Furthermore, every polynomial is its own Maclaurin series. The exponential function is analytic. Any Taylor series for this function converges not only for x close enough to x 0 (as in the definition) but for all values of x (real or complex). The trigonometric functions, logarithm, and the power functions are analytic on any open set of their ...
