  2. Saddle point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saddle_point

    A saddle point (in red) on the graph of z = x 2 − y 2 (hyperbolic paraboloid). In mathematics, a saddle point or minimax point [1] is a point on the surface of the graph of a function where the slopes (derivatives) in orthogonal directions are all zero (a critical point), but which is not a local extremum of the function. [2]

  3. Mountain pass theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_pass_theorem

    The mountain pass theorem is an existence theorem from the calculus of variations, originally due to Antonio Ambrosetti and Paul Rabinowitz. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Given certain conditions on a function, the theorem demonstrates the existence of a saddle point .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max–min_inequality

    The example function (,) = ⁡ (+) illustrates that the equality does not hold for every function. A theorem giving conditions on f , W , and Z which guarantee the saddle point property is called a minimax theorem .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Method_of_steepest_descent

    An asymptotic evaluation is then possible along the lines of the linear stationary phase/steepest descent method. The idea is to reduce asymptotically the solution of the given Riemann–Hilbert problem to that of a simpler, explicitly solvable, Riemann–Hilbert problem. Cauchy's theorem is used to justify deformations of the jump contour.

  8. Hyperbolic geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_geometry

    Lines through a given point P and asymptotic to line R. Non-intersecting lines in hyperbolic geometry also have properties that differ from non-intersecting lines in Euclidean geometry: For any line R and any point P which does not lie on R, in the plane containing line R and point P there are at least two distinct lines through P that do not ...
