  2. Continuous function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_function

    This notion of continuity is the same as topological continuity when the partially ordered sets are given the Scott topology. [ 19 ] [ 20 ] In category theory , a functor F : C → D {\displaystyle F:{\mathcal {C}}\to {\mathcal {D}}} between two categories is called continuous if it commutes with small limits .

  3. Derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative

    Continuity and differentiability This function does not have a derivative at the marked point, as the function is not continuous there (specifically, it has a jump discontinuity ). The absolute value function is continuous but fails to be differentiable at x = 0 since the tangent slopes do not approach the same value from the left as they do ...

  4. Function of several real variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_of_several_real...

    The implicit function theorem of more than two real variables deals with the continuity and differentiability of the function, as follows. [4] Let ϕ ( x 1 , x 2 , …, x n ) be a continuous function with continuous first order partial derivatives, and let ϕ evaluated at a point ( a , b ) = ( a 1 , a 2 , …, a n , b ) be zero:

  5. Differentiable function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiable_function

    A differentiable function. In mathematics, a differentiable function of one real variable is a function whose derivative exists at each point in its domain.In other words, the graph of a differentiable function has a non-vertical tangent line at each interior point in its domain.

  6. Classification of discontinuities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_of...

    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. Lipschitz continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipschitz_continuity

    In the theory of differential equations, Lipschitz continuity is the central condition of the Picard–Lindelöf theorem which guarantees the existence and uniqueness of the solution to an initial value problem. A special type of Lipschitz continuity, called contraction, is used in the Banach fixed-point theorem. [2]

  8. Modulus of continuity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulus_of_continuity

    A sublinear modulus of continuity can easily be found for any uniformly continuous function which is a bounded perturbation of a Lipschitz function: if f is a uniformly continuous function with modulus of continuity ω, and g is a k Lipschitz function with uniform distance r from f, then f admits the sublinear module of continuity min{ω(t), 2r ...

  9. Continuity equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_equation

    For example, if in the mass continuity equation for flowing water, u is the water's velocity at each point, and ρ is the water's density at each point, then j would be the mass flux, also known as the material discharge. In a well-known example, the flux of electric charge is the electric current density.
