    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bakhshali_manuscript

    This formula is contained in Bakshali Manuscript, folio 4v, rule 17 (Kaye III, p. 176) as follows: Ādyor viśeṣa dviguṇam cayasaṃdhiḥ-vibhājitam Rūpādhikaṃ tathā kālaṃ gati sāmyam tadā bhavet. "Twice the difference of the initial terms divided by the difference of the common differences is increased by one.

  3. Gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient

    Gradient of the 2D function f(x, y) = xe −(x 2 + y 2) is plotted as arrows over the pseudocolor plot of the function.. Consider a room where the temperature is given by a scalar field, T, so at each point (x, y, z) the temperature is T(x, y, z), independent of time.

  4. Superformula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superformula

    The superformula is a generalization of the superellipse and was proposed by Johan Gielis in 2003. [1] Gielis suggested that the formula can be used to describe many complex shapes and curves that are found in nature.

  5. Second derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_derivative

    The second derivative of a function f can be used to determine the concavity of the graph of f. [2] A function whose second derivative is positive is said to be concave up (also referred to as convex), meaning that the tangent line near the point where it touches the function will lie below the graph of the function.

  7. Laplace's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplace's_equation

    In mathematics and physics, Laplace's equation is a second-order partial differential equation named after Pierre-Simon Laplace, who first studied its properties.This is often written as = or =, where = = is the Laplace operator, [note 1] is the divergence operator (also symbolized "div"), is the gradient operator (also symbolized "grad"), and (,,) is a twice-differentiable real-valued function.

  8. Cardy formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardy_formula

    The above reduced formula gives the maximal entropy =, when E c =E, which is the Bekenstein bound. The Cardy–Verlinde formula was later shown by Kutasov and Larsen [4] to be invalid for weakly interacting CFTs. In fact, since the entropy of higher dimensional (meaning n>1) CFTs is dependent on exactly marginal couplings, it is believed that a ...

  9. Recurrence relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation

    In mathematics, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter that is independent of ; this number is called the order of the relation.
