  2. Muller's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muller's_method

    Muller's method is a root-finding algorithm, a numerical method for solving equations of the form f(x) = 0.It was first presented by David E. Muller in 1956.. Muller's method proceeds according to a third-order recurrence relation similar to the second-order recurrence relation of the secant method.

  3. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    When p = ±3, the above values of t 0 are sometimes called the Chebyshev cube root. [29] More precisely, the values involving cosines and hyperbolic cosines define, when p = −3, the same analytic function denoted C 1/3 (q), which is the proper Chebyshev cube root. The value involving hyperbolic sines is similarly denoted S 1/3 (q), when p = 3.

  4. Finite volume method for two dimensional diffusion problem

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_volume_method_for...

    The boundary side coefficient is set to zero (cutting the link with the boundary) and the flux crossing this boundary is introduced as a source which is appended to any existing and terms. Subsequently the resulting set of equations is solved to obtain the two dimensional distribution of the property φ {\displaystyle \varphi {}}

  5. Lagrange polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrange_polynomial

    The Lagrange polynomial () has degree and assumes each value at the corresponding node, () =. Although named after Joseph-Louis Lagrange, who published it in 1795, [1] the method was first discovered in 1779 by Edward Waring. [2]

  6. Halley's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halley's_method

    In numerical analysis, Halley's method is a root-finding algorithm used for functions of one real variable with a continuous second derivative. Edmond Halley was an English mathematician and astronomer who introduced the method now called by his name. The algorithm is second in the class of Householder's methods, after Newton's method.

  7. Burnside's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnside's_lemma

    Burnside's lemma can compute the number of rotationally distinct colourings of the faces of a cube using three colours.. Let X be the set of 3 6 possible face color combinations that can be applied to a fixed cube, and let the rotation group G of the cube act on X by moving the colored faces: two colorings in X belong to the same orbit precisely when one is a rotation of the other.

  8. Rate of convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_of_convergence

    In asymptotic analysis in general, one sequence () that converges to a limit is said to asymptotically converge to with a faster order of convergence than another sequence () that converges to in a shared metric space with distance metric | |, such as the real numbers or complex numbers with the ordinary absolute difference metrics, if

  9. Cube root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cube_root

    The principal cube root is its principal value, that is a unique cube root that has been chosen once for all. The principal cube root is the cube root with the largest real part. In the case of negative real numbers, the largest real part is shared by the two nonreal cube roots, and the principal cube root is the one with positive imaginary part.
