  2. Schwartz space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwartz_space

    A function in the Schwartz space is sometimes called a Schwartz function. A two-dimensional Gaussian function is an example of a rapidly decreasing function. Schwartz space is named after French mathematician Laurent Schwartz.

  3. Diminishing returns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diminishing_returns

    The point of diminishing returns can be realised, by use of the second derivative in the above production function. Which can be simplified to: Q= f(L,K). This signifies that output (Q) is dependent on a function of all variable (L) and fixed (K) inputs in the production process. This is the basis to understand.

  4. Marginal utility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marginal_utility

    The law states that as the amount consumed of a commodity increases, other things being equal, the utility derived by the consumer from the additional units, i.e., marginal utility, goes on decreasing. [11] For example, three bites of candy are better than two bites, but the twentieth bite does not add much to the experience beyond the ...

  5. Discontinuities of monotone functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discontinuities_of...

    Then f is a non-decreasing function on [a, b], which is continuous except for jump discontinuities at x n for n ≥ 1. In the case of finitely many jump discontinuities, f is a step function. The examples above are generalised step functions; they are very special cases of what are called jump functions or saltus-functions. [8] [9]

  6. Classification of discontinuities - Wikipedia

    The function in example 1, a removable discontinuity. Consider the piecewise function = {< = >. The point = is a removable discontinuity.For this kind of discontinuity: The one-sided limit from the negative direction: = and the one-sided limit from the positive direction: + = + at both exist, are finite, and are equal to = = +.

  7. Absolutely and completely monotonic functions and sequences

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolutely_and_completely...

    A function that is absolutely monotonic on [,) can be extended to a function that is not only analytic on the real line but is even the restriction of an entire function to the real line. The big Bernshtein theorem : A function f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} that is absolutely monotonic on ( − ∞ , 0 ] {\displaystyle (-\infty ,0]} can be ...

  9. Concave function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concave_function

    A function f is concave over a convex set if and only if the function −f is a convex function over the set. The sum of two concave functions is itself concave and so is the pointwise minimum of two concave functions, i.e. the set of concave functions on a given domain form a semifield.
