  2. Step function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_function

    The Heaviside step function is an often-used step function. A constant function is a trivial example of a step function. Then there is only one interval, =. The sign function sgn(x), which is −1 for negative numbers and +1 for positive numbers, and is the simplest non-constant step function.

    is a non-degenerate bilinear form, that is, : is a map which is linear in both arguments, making it a bilinear form. By ϕ {\displaystyle \phi } being non-degenerate we mean that for each v ∈ V {\displaystyle v\in V} such that v ≠ 0 {\displaystyle v\neq 0} , there is a u ∈ V {\displaystyle u\in V} such that

  4. Index calculus algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_calculus_algorithm

    This was considered a minor step compared to the others for smaller discrete log computations. However, larger discrete logarithm records [1] [2] were made possible only by shifting the work away from the linear algebra and onto the sieve (i.e., increasing the number of equations while reducing the number of variables).

  5. Linear multistep method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_multistep_method

    Single-step methods (such as Euler's method) refer to only one previous point and its derivative to determine the current value. Methods such as Runge–Kutta take some intermediate steps (for example, a half-step) to obtain a higher order method, but then discard all previous information before taking a second step. Multistep methods attempt ...

  6. Heaviside step function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heaviside_step_function

    The Heaviside step function, or the unit step function, usually denoted by H or θ (but sometimes u, 1 or 𝟙), is a step function named after Oliver Heaviside, the value of which is zero for negative arguments and one for positive arguments. Different conventions concerning the value H(0) are in use.

  7. Index notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_notation

    A vector treated as an array of numbers by writing as a row vector or column vector (whichever is used depends on convenience or context): = (), = Index notation allows indication of the elements of the array by simply writing a i, where the index i is known to run from 1 to n, because of n-dimensions. [1]

  8. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    Step 4 = D @ u (u 1 • u 2) = E. Finally this number is taken and the following is added to it: Step 5 = E + (T 1 • T 2) = Final Answer. For example, in the following problem: 79 • 26, by assigning subscripts of 1 to 79 and subscripts of 2 to 26, we would reach the answer as follows: Step 1 = (7 - 9) • 6 = -12 Step 2 = 9 • 2 = 18 Step ...

  9. Multi-index notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-index_notation

    Multi-index notation is a mathematical notation that simplifies formulas used in multivariable calculus, partial differential equations and the theory of distributions, by generalising the concept of an integer index to an ordered tuple of indices.
