  2. Differentiable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiable_function

    The absolute value function is continuous (i.e. it has no gaps). It is differentiable everywhere except at the point x = 0, where it makes a sharp turn as it crosses the y-axis. A cusp on the graph of a continuous function. At zero, the function is continuous but not differentiable. If f is differentiable at a point x 0, then f must also be ...

  3. Weierstrass function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_function

    The Weierstrass function has historically served the role of a pathological function, being the first published example (1872) specifically concocted to challenge the notion that every continuous function is differentiable except on a set of isolated points. [1]

  4. Fundamental lemma of the calculus of variations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_lemma_of_the...

    If a continuous function on an open interval (,) satisfies the equality () =for all compactly supported smooth functions on (,), then is identically zero. [1] [2]Here "smooth" may be interpreted as "infinitely differentiable", [1] but often is interpreted as "twice continuously differentiable" or "continuously differentiable" or even just "continuous", [2] since these weaker statements may be ...

  5. Rolle's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolle's_theorem

    the function f is n − 1 times continuously differentiable on the closed interval [a, b] and the n th derivative exists on the open interval (a, b), and; there are n intervals given by a 1 < b 1 ≤ a 2 < b 2 ≤ ⋯ ≤ a n < b n in [a, b] such that f (a k) = f (b k) for every k from 1 to n. Then there is a number c in (a, b) such that the n ...

  6. Semi-differentiability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-differentiability

    Let f denote a real-valued function defined on a subset I of the real numbers.. If a ∈ I is a limit point of I ∩ [a,∞) and the one-sided limit + ():= + () exists as a real number, then f is called right differentiable at a and the limit ∂ + f(a) is called the right derivative of f at a.

  7. Antiderivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiderivative

    The slope field of () = +, showing three of the infinitely many solutions that can be produced by varying the arbitrary constant c.. In calculus, an antiderivative, inverse derivative, primitive function, primitive integral or indefinite integral [Note 1] of a continuous function f is a differentiable function F whose derivative is equal to the original function f.

  8. Non-analytic smooth function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-analytic_smooth_function

    The function f has continuous derivatives of all orders at every point x of the real line.The formula for these derivatives is () = {() >,,where p n (x) is a polynomial of degree n − 1 given recursively by p 1 (x) = 1 and

  9. Exact differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exact_differential_equation

    Given a simply connected and open subset D of and two functions I and J which are continuous on D, an implicit first-order ordinary differential equation of the form (,) + (,) =,is called an exact differential equation if there exists a continuously differentiable function F, called the potential function, [1] [2] so that
