  2. Rational function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_function

    Rational functions are used in numerical analysis for interpolation and approximation of functions, for example the Padé approximations introduced by Henri Padé. Approximations in terms of rational functions are well suited for computer algebra systems and other numerical software. Like polynomials, they can be evaluated straightforwardly ...

  3. Lists of integrals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_integrals

    If the function f does not have any continuous antiderivative which takes the value zero at the zeros of f (this is the case for the sine and the cosine functions), then sgn(f(x)) ∫ f(x) dx is an antiderivative of f on every interval on which f is not zero, but may be discontinuous at the points where f(x) = 0.

  4. List of integrals of rational functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_integrals_of...

    The following is a list of integrals (antiderivative functions) of rational functions. Any rational function can be integrated by partial fraction decomposition of the function into a sum of functions of the form:

  5. List of mathematical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_series

    An infinite series of any rational function of can be reduced to a finite series of polygamma functions, by use of partial fraction decomposition, [8] as explained here. This fact can also be applied to finite series of rational functions, allowing the result to be computed in constant time even when the series contains a large number of terms.

  6. Thomae's function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomae's_function

    Thomae mentioned it as an example for an integrable function with infinitely many discontinuities in an early textbook on Riemann's notion of integration. [ 4 ] Since every rational number has a unique representation with coprime (also termed relatively prime) p ∈ Z {\displaystyle p\in \mathbb {Z} } and q ∈ N {\displaystyle q\in \mathbb {N ...

  7. List of mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_functions

    Dirichlet function: is an indicator function that matches 1 to rational numbers and 0 to irrationals. It is nowhere continuous. Thomae's function: is a function that is continuous at all irrational numbers and discontinuous at all rational numbers. It is also a modification of Dirichlet function and sometimes called Riemann function.

  8. Elementary function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_function

    By starting with the field of rational functions, two special types of transcendental extensions (the logarithm and the exponential) can be added to the field building a tower containing elementary functions. A differential field F is a field F 0 (rational functions over the rationals Q for example) together with a derivation map u → ∂u.

  9. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    Rational functions are quotients of two polynomial functions, and their domain is the real numbers with a finite number of them removed to avoid division by zero. The simplest rational function is the function , whose graph is a hyperbola, and whose domain is the whole real line except for 0.
