  2. Discontinuities of monotone functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discontinuities_of...

    Conversely, by a differentiation theorem of Lebesgue, the jump function f is uniquely determined by the properties: [14] (1) being non-decreasing and non-positive; (2) having given jump data at its points of discontinuity x n; (3) satisfying the boundary condition f (a) = 0; and (4) having zero derivative almost everywhere.

  3. Floor and ceiling functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_and_ceiling_functions

    At points of discontinuity, a Fourier series converges to a value that is the average of its limits on the left and the right, unlike the floor, ceiling and fractional part functions: for y fixed and x a multiple of y the Fourier series given converges to y/2, rather than to x mod y = 0. At points of continuity the series converges to the true ...

    The function in example 1, a removable discontinuity. Consider the piecewise function = {< = >. The point = is a removable discontinuity.For this kind of discontinuity: The one-sided limit from the negative direction: = and the one-sided limit from the positive direction: + = + at both exist, are finite, and are equal to = = +.

  5. Thomae's function - Wikipedia

    is continuous at every irrational number, so its points of continuity are dense within the real numbers. Proof of continuity at irrational arguments Since f {\displaystyle f} is periodic with period 1 {\displaystyle 1} and 0 ∈ Q , {\displaystyle 0\in \mathbb {Q} ,} it suffices to check all irrational points in I = ( 0 , 1 ) . {\displaystyle I ...

  6. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerk_(physics)

    The jump-discontinuity occurs at points where the path is not smooth. Extrapolating from these idealized settings, one can qualitatively describe, explain and predict the effects of jerk in real situations. Jump-discontinuity in acceleration can be modeled using a Dirac delta function in jerk, scaled to the height of the jump. Integrating jerk ...

  7. Inflection point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflection_point

    For a smooth curve given by parametric equations, a point is an inflection point if its signed curvature changes from plus to minus or from minus to plus, i.e., changes sign. For a smooth curve which is a graph of a twice differentiable function, an inflection point is a point on the graph at which the second derivative has an isolated zero and ...

  8. Gibbs phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_phenomenon

    Since the Gibbs phenomenon comes from undershooting, it may be eliminated by using kernels that are never negative, such as the Fejér kernel. [12] [13]In practice, the difficulties associated with the Gibbs phenomenon can be ameliorated by using a smoother method of Fourier series summation, such as Fejér summation or Riesz summation, or by using sigma-approximation.

  9. Branch point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_point

    The points of X where ƒ fails to be a cover are the ramification points of ƒ, and the image of a ramification point under ƒ is called a branch point. For any point P ∈ X and Q = ƒ(P) ∈ Y, there are holomorphic local coordinates z for X near P and w for Y near Q in terms of which the function ƒ(z) is given by =
