  2. Taylor series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor_series

    The function e (−1/x 2) is not analytic at x = 0: the Taylor series is identically 0, although the function is not. If f ( x ) is given by a convergent power series in an open disk centred at b in the complex plane (or an interval in the real line), it is said to be analytic in this region.

  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. Radius of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radius_of_convergence

    Two cases arise: The first case is theoretical: when you know all the coefficients then you take certain limits and find the precise radius of convergence.; The second case is practical: when you construct a power series solution of a difficult problem you typically will only know a finite number of terms in a power series, anywhere from a couple of terms to a hundred terms.

    To find a second-order approximation for the covariance of functions of two random variables (with the same function applied to both), one can proceed as follows.

  6. Analytic function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_function

    Any Taylor series for this function converges not only for x close enough to x 0 (as in the definition) but for all values of x (real or complex). The trigonometric functions, logarithm, and the power functions are analytic on any open set of their domain. Most special functions (at least in some range of the complex plane): hypergeometric ...

  7. Rational function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rational_function

    Every Laurent polynomial can be written as a rational function while the converse is not necessarily true, i.e., the ring of Laurent polynomials is a subring of the rational functions. The rational function () = is equal to 1 for all x except 0, where there is a removable singularity. The sum, product, or quotient (excepting division by the ...

  8. Bernoulli number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_number

    In mathematics, the Bernoulli numbers B n are a sequence of rational numbers which occur frequently in analysis.The Bernoulli numbers appear in (and can be defined by) the Taylor series expansions of the tangent and hyperbolic tangent functions, in Faulhaber's formula for the sum of m-th powers of the first n positive integers, in the Euler–Maclaurin formula, and in expressions for certain ...

  9. Taylor's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem

    The Taylor series of f converges uniformly to the zero function T f (x) = 0, which is analytic with all coefficients equal to zero. The function f is unequal to this Taylor series, and hence non-analytic. For any order k ∈ N and radius r > 0 there exists M k,r > 0 satisfying the remainder bound above.
