  2. Separation of variables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separation_of_variables

    In the separation of variables, these functions are given by solutions to = Hence, the spectral theorem ensures that the separation of variables will (when it is possible) find all the solutions. For many differential operators, such as d 2 d x 2 {\displaystyle {\frac {d^{2}}{dx^{2}}}} , we can show that they are self-adjoint by integration by ...

  3. Separable partial differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separable_partial...

    Laplace's equation on is an example of a partial differential equation that admits solutions through -separation of variables; in the three-dimensional case this uses 6-sphere coordinates. (This should not be confused with the case of a separable ODE, which refers to a somewhat different class of problems that can be broken into a pair of ...

  4. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    Self-similar solutions appear whenever the problem lacks a characteristic length or time scale (for example, the Blasius boundary layer of an infinite plate, but not of a finite-length plate). These include, for example, the Blasius boundary layer or the Sedov–Taylor shell .

    An example of a nonlinear delay differential equation; applications in number theory, distribution of primes, and control theory [5] [6] [7] Chrystal's equation: 1 + + + = Generalization of Clairaut's equation with a singular solution [8] Clairaut's equation: 1

  6. Constrained least squares - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constrained_least_squares

    In constrained least squares one solves a linear least squares problem with an additional constraint on the solution. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This means, the unconstrained equation X β = y {\displaystyle \mathbf {X} {\boldsymbol {\beta }}=\mathbf {y} } must be fit as closely as possible (in the least squares sense) while ensuring that some other property ...

  7. Test functions for optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_functions_for...

    The artificial landscapes presented herein for single-objective optimization problems are taken from Bäck, [1] Haupt et al. [2] and from Rody Oldenhuis software. [3] Given the number of problems (55 in total), just a few are presented here. The test functions used to evaluate the algorithms for MOP were taken from Deb, [4] Binh et al. [5] and ...

  8. Autonomous system (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system...

    The second-order autonomous equation = (, ′) is more difficult, but it can be solved [2] by introducing the new variable = and expressing the second derivative of via the chain rule as = = = so that the original equation becomes = (,) which is a first order equation containing no reference to the independent variable .

  9. Tightness of measures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tightness_of_measures

    If is an -valued random variable whose probability distribution on is a tight measure then is said to be a separable random variable or a Radon random variable. Another equivalent criterion of the tightness of a collection M {\displaystyle M} is sequentially weakly compact.
