  2. Symmetry of second derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_of_second_derivatives

    The two iterated integrals are therefore equal. On the other hand, since f xy (x,y) is continuous, the second iterated integral can be performed by first integrating over x and then afterwards over y. But then the iterated integral of f yx − f xy on [a,b] × [c,d] must vanish.

  3. Symmetric derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_derivative

    A well-known counterexample is the absolute value function f(x) = |x|, which is not differentiable at x = 0, but is symmetrically differentiable here with symmetric derivative 0. For differentiable functions, the symmetric difference quotient does provide a better numerical approximation of the derivative than the usual difference quotient.

  4. Symmetric power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_power

    In linear algebra, the n-th symmetric power of a vector space V is the vector subspace of the symmetric algebra of V consisting of degree-n elements (here the product is a tensor product). In algebraic topology , the n -th symmetric power of a topological space X is the quotient space X n / S n {\displaystyle X^{n}/{\mathfrak {S}}_{n}} , as in ...

  5. Legendre polynomials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre_polynomials

    Where ẑ is the axis of symmetry and θ is the angle between the position of the observer and the ẑ axis (the zenith angle), the solution for the potential will be (,) = = (+ (+)) (⁡). A l and B l are to be determined according to the boundary condition of each problem.

  6. Symmetry operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_operation

    In mathematics, a symmetry operation is a geometric transformation of an object that leaves the object looking the same after it has been carried out. For example, a 1 ⁄ 3 turn rotation of a regular triangle about its center, a reflection of a square across its diagonal, a translation of the Euclidean plane, or a point reflection of a sphere through its center are all symmetry operations.

  7. Freiling's axiom of symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freiling's_axiom_of_symmetry

    Freiling's axiom of symmetry is a set-theoretic axiom proposed by Chris Freiling. It is based on intuition of Stuart Davidson but the mathematics behind it goes back to Wacław Sierpiński . Let A ⊆ P ( [ 0 , 1 ] ) [ 0 , 1 ] {\displaystyle A\subseteq {\mathcal {P}}([0,1])^{[0,1]}} denote the set of all functions from [ 0 , 1 ] {\displaystyle ...

  8. Symmetry in mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetry_in_mathematics

    Let f(x) be a real-valued function of a real variable, then f is even if the following equation holds for all x and -x in the domain of f: = Geometrically speaking, the graph face of an even function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, meaning that its graph remains unchanged after reflection about the y-axis

  9. Polar point group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_point_group

    The unmoved points will constitute a line, a plane, or all of space. While the simplest point group, C 1, leaves all points invariant, most polar point groups will move some, but not all points. To describe the points which are unmoved by the symmetry operations of the point group, we draw a straight line joining two unmoved points.
