The notation convention chosen here (with W 0 and W −1) follows the canonical reference on the Lambert W function by Corless, Gonnet, Hare, Jeffrey and Knuth. [3]The name "product logarithm" can be understood as follows: since the inverse function of f(w) = e w is termed the logarithm, it makes sense to call the inverse "function" of the product we w the "product logarithm".
The range of the Lambert W function, showing all branches. The orange curves are images of either the positive or the negative imaginary axis. The black curves are images of the positive or negative real axis (except for the one that intersects −1, which is the image of part of the negative real axis).
Taylor series are used to define functions and "operators" in diverse areas of mathematics. In particular, this is true in areas where the classical definitions of functions break down. For example, using Taylor series, one may extend analytic functions to sets of matrices and operators, such as the matrix exponential or matrix logarithm.
The Lambert W function has several examples, but only has proof for the first one. Does anyone have a proof for example 3? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Luckytoilet (talk • contribs) 05:05, 17 February 2010 (UTC) By continuity of exponentiation, the limit c satisfies c = z c = e c log z.
Suppose z is defined as a function of w by an equation of the form = where f is analytic at a point a and ′ Then it is possible to invert or solve the equation for w, expressing it in the form = given by a power series [1]
The test functions used to evaluate the algorithms for MOP were taken from Deb, [4] Binh et al. [5] and Binh. [6] The software developed by Deb can be downloaded, [7] which implements the NSGA-II procedure with GAs, or the program posted on Internet, [8] which implements the NSGA-II procedure with ES.
There are various types of generating functions, including ordinary generating functions, exponential generating functions, Lambert series, Bell series, and Dirichlet series. Every sequence in principle has a generating function of each type (except that Lambert and Dirichlet series require indices to start at 1 rather than 0), but the ease ...
The omega constant is a mathematical constant defined as the unique real number that satisfies the equation = It is the value of W(1), where W is Lambert's W function.The name is derived from the alternate name for Lambert's W function, the omega function.
