  2. Economic surplus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_surplus

    Producer surplus, or producers' surplus, is the amount that producers benefit by selling at a market price that is higher than the least that they would be willing to sell for; this is roughly equal to profit (since producers are not normally willing to sell at a loss and are normally indifferent to selling at a break-even price).

  3. Rendering equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_equation

    The rendering equation describes the total amount of light emitted from a point x along a particular viewing direction, given a function for incoming light and a BRDF.. In computer graphics, the rendering equation is an integral equation in which the equilibrium radiance leaving a point is given as the sum of emitted plus reflected radiance under a geometrical optics approximation.

  4. Fredholm integral equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fredholm_integral_equation

    and the problem is, given the continuous kernel function and the function , to find the function .. An important case of these types of equation is the case when the kernel is a function only of the difference of its arguments, namely (,) = (), and the limits of integration are ±∞, then the right hand side of the equation can be rewritten as a convolution of the functions and and therefore ...

  5. Integral equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_equation

    This equation is a special form of the more general weakly singular Volterra integral equation of the first kind, called Abel's integral equation: [7] = Strongly singular: An integral equation is called strongly singular if the integral is defined by a special regularisation, for example, by the Cauchy principal value.

  6. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  7. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations

    The integral version of Gauss's equation can thus be rewritten as = Since Ω is arbitrary (e.g. an arbitrary small ball with arbitrary center), this is satisfied if and only if the integrand is zero everywhere. This is the differential equations formulation of Gauss equation up to a trivial rearrangement.

  8. Volterra integral equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volterra_integral_equation

    In 1911, Lalescu wrote the first book ever on integral equations. Volterra integral equations find application in demography as Lotka's integral equation, [2] the study of viscoelastic materials, in actuarial science through the renewal equation, [3] and in fluid mechanics to describe the flow behavior near finite-sized boundaries.

    where and are real numbers, is an integer, which is called the order of the integrator, and where = = = =.Note that each of the operators ⁡ and ⁡ provides a symplectic map, so their product appearing in the right-hand side of also constitutes a symplectic map.
