  2. Delta (letter) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_(letter)

    Delta ( / ˈdɛltə /; [1] uppercase Δ, lowercase δ; Greek: δέλτα, délta, [ˈðelta]) [2] is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals it has a value of 4. It was derived from the Phoenician letter dalet 𐤃. [3] Letters that come from delta include Latin D and Cyrillic Д .

  3. Delta operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_operator

    Delta operator. In mathematics, a delta operator is a shift-equivariant linear operator on the vector space of polynomials in a variable over a field that reduces degrees by one. To say that is shift-equivariant means that if , then. In other words, if is a "shift" of , then is also a shift of , and has the same "shifting vector" .

  4. Greek letters used in mathematics, science, and engineering

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_letters_used_in...

    t. e. Greek letters are used in mathematics, science, engineering, and other areas where mathematical notation is used as symbols for constants, special functions, and also conventionally for variables representing certain quantities. In these contexts, the capital letters and the small letters represent distinct and unrelated entities.

  5. Dirac delta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

    In mathematical analysis, the Dirac delta function (or δ distribution ), also known as the unit impulse, [1] is a generalized function on the real numbers, whose value is zero everywhere except at zero, and whose integral over the entire real line is equal to one. [2] [3] [4] Since there is no function having this property, to model the delta ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E2%88%82

    The character ∂ ( Unicode: U+2202) is a stylized cursive d mainly used as a mathematical symbol, usually to denote a partial derivative such as (read as "the partial derivative of z with respect to x "). [1] [2] It is also used for boundary of a set, the boundary operator in a chain complex, and the conjugate of the Dolbeault operator on ...

  7. Differential (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Introduction. The term differential is used nonrigorously in calculus to refer to an infinitesimal ("infinitely small") change in some varying quantity. For example, if x is a variable, then a change in the value of x is often denoted Δ x (pronounced delta x ). The differential dx represents an infinitely small change in the variable x.

  8. Kronecker delta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_delta

    Kronecker delta. In mathematics, the Kronecker delta (named after Leopold Kronecker) is a function of two variables, usually just non-negative integers. The function is 1 if the variables are equal, and 0 otherwise: or with use of Iverson brackets : For example, because , whereas because . The Kronecker delta appears naturally in many areas of ...

  9. Delta set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_set

    Delta set. In mathematics, a Δ-set, often called a Δ-complex or a semi-simplicial set, is a combinatorial object that is useful in the construction and triangulation of topological spaces, and also in the computation of related algebraic invariants of such spaces. A Δ-set is somewhat more general than a simplicial complex, yet not quite as ...
