  2. Fundamental theorem of Riemannian geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_theorem_of...

    The fundamental theorem of Riemannian geometry states that on any Riemannian manifold (or pseudo-Riemannian manifold) there is a unique affine connection that is torsion-free and metric-compatible, called the Levi-Civita connection or (pseudo-) Riemannian connection of the given metric.

  3. Lagrange inversion theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_inversion_theorem

    Faà di Bruno's formula gives coefficients of the composition of two formal power series in terms of the coefficients of those two series. Equivalently, it is a formula for the nth derivative of a composite function. Lagrange reversion theorem for another theorem sometimes called the inversion theorem; Formal power series#The Lagrange inversion ...

  4. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem

    In calculus, Taylor's theorem gives an approximation of a -times differentiable function around a given point by a polynomial of degree , called the -th-order Taylor polynomial. For a smooth function , the Taylor polynomial is the truncation at the order k {\textstyle k} of the Taylor series of the function.

  5. Power series solution of differential equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_series_solution_of...

    A much simpler way of solving this equation (and power series solution in general) using the Taylor series form of the expansion. Here we assume the answer is of the form f = ∑ k = 0 ∞ A k z k k ! {\displaystyle f=\sum _{k=0}^{\infty }{A_{k}z^{k} \over {k!}}}

  6. Itô's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Itô's_lemma

    In mathematics, Itô's lemma or Itô's formula is an identity used in Itô calculus to find the differential of a time-dependent function of a stochastic process. It serves as the stochastic calculus counterpart of the chain rule .

  7. Scalar field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalar_field_theory

    Consequently, the propagator becomes that of a free particle and the field is no longer interacting. For a φ 4 interaction, Michael Aizenman proved that the theory is indeed trivial, for space-time dimension D ≥ 5. [6] For D = 4, the triviality has yet to be proven rigorously, but lattice computations have provided strong evidence for this.

  8. Free particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_particle

    A free particle with mass in non-relativistic quantum mechanics is described by the free Schrödinger equation: (,) = (,) where ψ is the wavefunction of the particle at position r and time t . The solution for a particle with momentum p or wave vector k , at angular frequency ω or energy E , is given by a complex plane wave :

  9. Campbell's theorem (probability) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell's_theorem...

    is known as Campbell's formula [2] or Campbell's theorem, [1] [12] [13] which gives a method for calculating expectations of sums of measurable functions with ranges on the real line. More specifically, for a point process N {\displaystyle N} and a measurable function f : R d → R {\displaystyle f:{\textbf {R}}^{d}\rightarrow {\textbf {R ...
