  2. List of mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematical_functions

    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. Kronecker delta function: is a function of two variables, usually integers, which is 1 if they are equal, and 0 otherwise.

  3. Nonlinear system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_system

    In mathematics and science, a nonlinear system (or a non-linear system) is a system in which the change of the output is not proportional to the change of the input. [1] [2] Nonlinear problems are of interest to engineers, biologists, [3] [4] [5] physicists, [6] [7] mathematicians, and many other scientists since most systems are inherently nonlinear in nature. [8]

  4. Noncommutative geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noncommutative_geometry

    Noncommutative geometry (NCG) is a branch of mathematics concerned with a geometric approach to noncommutative algebras, and with the construction of spaces that are locally presented by noncommutative algebras of functions, possibly in some generalized sense.

  5. Monotonic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotonic_function

    In mathematics, a monotonic function (or monotone function) is a function between ordered sets that preserves or reverses the given order. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] This concept first arose in calculus , and was later generalized to the more abstract setting of order theory .

  6. Consistent and inconsistent equations - Wikipedia

    The system + =, + = has exactly one solution: x = 1, y = 2 The nonlinear system + =, + = has the two solutions (x, y) = (1, 0) and (x, y) = (0, 1), while + + =, + + =, + + = has an infinite number of solutions because the third equation is the first equation plus twice the second one and hence contains no independent information; thus any value of z can be chosen and values of x and y can be ...

  7. Functional (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    This is an example of a non-linear functional. The Riemann integral is a linear functional on the vector space of functions defined on [a, b] that are Riemann-integrable from a to b. In mathematics, a functional is a certain type of function. The exact definition of the term varies depending on the subfield (and sometimes even the author).

  8. Undefined (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In mathematics, the term undefined refers to a value, function, or other expression that cannot be assigned a meaning within a specific formal system. [1]Attempting to assign or use an undefined value within a particular formal system, may produce contradictory or meaningless results within that system.

  9. Nonlinear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_algebra

    Nonlinear algebra is the nonlinear analogue to linear algebra, generalizing notions of spaces and transformations coming from the linear setting. [1] Algebraic geometry is one of the main areas of mathematical research supporting nonlinear algebra, while major components coming from computational mathematics support the development of the area into maturity.
