  2. QM-AM-GM-HM inequalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QM-AM-GM-HM_Inequalities

    In mathematics, the QM-AM-GM-HM inequalities, also known as the mean inequality chain, state the relationship between the harmonic mean, geometric mean, arithmetic mean, and quadratic mean (also known as root mean square). Suppose that ,, …, are positive real numbers. Then

  3. Quadratic variation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_variation

    A process is said to have finite variation if it has bounded variation over every finite time interval (with probability 1). Such processes are very common including, in particular, all continuously differentiable functions. The quadratic variation exists for all continuous finite variation processes, and is zero.

  4. Morse theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morse_theory

    Round functions are examples of Morse–Bott functions, where the critical sets are (disjoint unions of) circles. Morse homology can also be formulated for Morse–Bott functions; the differential in Morse–Bott homology is computed by a spectral sequence. Frederic Bourgeois sketched an approach in the course of his work on a Morse–Bott ...

  5. Variational inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variational_inequality

    Following Antman (1983, p. 283), the definition of a variational inequality is the following one.. Given a Banach space, a subset of , and a functional : from to the dual space of the space , the variational inequality problem is the problem of solving for the variable belonging to the following inequality:

  6. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequality_(mathematics)

    The feasible regions of linear programming are defined by a set of inequalities. In mathematics, an inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions. [1] It is used most often to compare two numbers on the number line by their size.

  7. Jensen's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jensen's_inequality

    Jensen's inequality generalizes the statement that a secant line of a convex function lies above its graph. Visualizing convexity and Jensen's inequality In mathematics , Jensen's inequality , named after the Danish mathematician Johan Jensen , relates the value of a convex function of an integral to the integral of the convex function.

  8. Quadratic assignment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadratic_assignment_problem

    The quadratic assignment problem (QAP) is one of the fundamental combinatorial optimization problems in the branch of optimization or operations research in mathematics, from the category of the facilities location problems first introduced by Koopmans and Beckmann. [1] The problem models the following real-life problem:

  9. Cauchy–Schwarz inequality - Wikipedia

    where , is the inner product.Examples of inner products include the real and complex dot product; see the examples in inner product.Every inner product gives rise to a Euclidean norm, called the canonical or induced norm, where the norm of a vector is denoted and defined by ‖ ‖:= , , where , is always a non-negative real number (even if the inner product is complex-valued).
