  2. Implicit function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function

    Then an equation expressing y as an implicit function of the other variables can be written. The defining equation R(x, y) = 0 can also have other pathologies. For example, the equation x = 0 does not imply a function f(x) giving solutions for y at all; it is a vertical line.

  3. Implicit curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_curve

    In general, every implicit curve is defined by an equation of the form (,) = for some function F of two variables. Hence an implicit curve can be considered as the set of zeros of a function of two variables. Implicit means that the equation is not expressed as a solution for either x in terms of y or vice versa.

  4. Gauss–Legendre method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Legendre_method

    Gauss–Legendre methods are implicit Runge–Kutta methods. More specifically, they are collocation methods based on the points of Gauss–Legendre quadrature. The Gauss–Legendre method based on s points has order 2s. [1] All Gauss–Legendre methods are A-stable. [2] The Gauss–Legendre method of order two is the implicit midpoint rule.

  5. Explicit and implicit methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explicit_and_implicit_methods

    For such problems, to achieve given accuracy, it takes much less computational time to use an implicit method with larger time steps, even taking into account that one needs to solve an equation of the form (1) at each time step. That said, whether one should use an explicit or implicit method depends upon the problem to be solved.

  6. Implicit function theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_function_theorem

    The implicit function theorem may still be applied to these two points, by writing x as a function of y, that is, = (); now the graph of the function will be ((),), since where b = 0 we have a = 1, and the conditions to locally express the function in this form are satisfied. The implicit derivative of y with respect to x, and that of x with ...

  7. Implicit surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_surface

    An implicit surface is the set of zeros of a function of three variables. Implicit means that the equation is not solved for x or y or z. The graph of a function is usually described by an equation = (,) and is called an explicit representation.

  8. Folium of Descartes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folium_of_Descartes

    The curve was first proposed and studied by René Descartes in 1638. [1] Its claim to fame lies in an incident in the development of calculus.Descartes challenged Pierre de Fermat to find the tangent line to the curve at an arbitrary point since Fermat had recently discovered a method for finding tangent lines.

  9. Alternating-direction implicit method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternating-direction...

    In numerical linear algebra, the alternating-direction implicit (ADI) method is an iterative method used to solve Sylvester matrix equations.It is a popular method for solving the large matrix equations that arise in systems theory and control, [1] and can be formulated to construct solutions in a memory-efficient, factored form.
