  2. Absolute value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value

    The real absolute value function is an example of a continuous function that achieves a global minimum where the derivative does not exist. The subdifferential of | x | at x = 0 is the interval [−1, 1]. [14] The complex absolute value function is continuous everywhere but complex differentiable nowhere because it violates the Cauchy–Riemann ...

  3. Absolute value (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_value_(algebra)

    The standard absolute value on the integers. The standard absolute value on the complex numbers.; The p-adic absolute value on the rational numbers.; If R is the field of rational functions over a field F and () is a fixed irreducible polynomial over F, then the following defines an absolute value on R: for () in R define | | to be , where () = () and ((), ()) = = ((), ()).

  4. Absolutely integrable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolutely_integrable_function

    Then | | + + + + + | | so | | + + + + + | | This shows that the sum of the four integrals (in the middle) is finite if and only if the integral of the absolute value is finite, and the function is Lebesgue integrable only if all the four integrals are finite. So having a finite integral of the absolute value is equivalent to the conditions for ...

  5. Archimedean property - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedean_property

    The field of the rational numbers endowed with the p-adic metric and the p-adic number fields which are the completions, do not have the Archimedean property as fields with absolute values. All Archimedean valued fields are isometrically isomorphic to a subfield of the complex numbers with a power of the usual absolute value. [6]

  6. Elementary function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_function

    Many mathematicians exclude non-analytic functions such as the absolute value function or discontinuous functions such as the step function, [9] [6] but others allow them. Some have proposed extending the set to include, for example, the Lambert W function. [10] Some examples of functions that are not elementary: tetration; the gamma function

  7. Valuation (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valuation_(algebra)

    When the ordered abelian group Γ is the additive group of the integers, the associated valuation is equivalent to an absolute value, and hence induces a metric on the field K. If K is complete with respect to this metric, then it is called a complete valued field .

  9. Abscissa and ordinate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abscissa_and_ordinate

    More technically, the abscissa of a point is the signed measure of its projection on the primary axis. Its absolute value is the distance between the projection and the origin of the axis, and its sign is given by the location on the projection relative to the origin (before: negative; after: positive). Similarly, the ordinate of a point is the ...
