The term absolute value has been used in this sense from at least 1806 in French [3] and 1857 in English. [4] The notation | x |, with a vertical bar on each side, was introduced by Karl Weierstrass in 1841. [5] Other names for absolute value include numerical value [1] and magnitude. [1]
The standard absolute value on the integers. The standard absolute value on the complex numbers.; The p-adic absolute value on the rational numbers.; If R is the field of rational functions over a field F and () is a fixed irreducible polynomial over F, then the following defines an absolute value on R: for () in R define | | to be , where () = () and ((), ()) = = ((), ()).
The absolute value (or modulus) of z may be thought of as the distance of P from the origin of that space. The formula for the absolute value of z = a + bi is similar to that for the Euclidean norm of a vector in a 2-dimensional Euclidean space : [ 5 ]
In number theory, Ostrowski's theorem, due to Alexander Ostrowski (1916), states that every non-trivial absolute value on the rational numbers is equivalent to either the usual real absolute value or a p-adic absolute value. [1]
A subderivative value 0 occurs here because the absolute value function is at a minimum. The full family of valid subderivatives at zero constitutes the subdifferential interval [ − 1 , 1 ] {\displaystyle [-1,1]} , which might be thought of informally as "filling in" the graph of the sign function with a vertical line through the origin ...
Nvidia’s market value dropped by $588.8 billion, or 16.97%. It was the biggest ever single-day loss in a stock’s market cap in absolute terms, according to Deutsche Bank data.
Absolute difference, the absolute value of the difference of two real numbers Absolute pseudoprime , a class of pseudoprimes that come from Fermat's little theorem Absolute scale , system of measurement that begins at a zero point and progresses in only one direction
