  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

  3. Kronecker product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kronecker_product

    Kronecker product. In mathematics, the Kronecker product, sometimes denoted by ⊗, is an operation on two matrices of arbitrary size resulting in a block matrix. It is a specialization of the tensor product (which is denoted by the same symbol) from vectors to matrices and gives the matrix of the tensor product linear map with respect to a ...

  4. Translation (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_(geometry)

    In Euclidean geometry, a translation is a geometric transformation that moves every point of a figure, shape or space by the same distance in a given direction. A translation can also be interpreted as the addition of a constant vector to every point, or as shifting the origin of the coordinate system. In a Euclidean space, any translation is ...

  5. Glossary of mathematical symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mathematical...

    Glossary of mathematical symbols. A mathematical symbol is a figure or a combination of figures that is used to represent a mathematical object, an action on mathematical objects, a relation between mathematical objects, or for structuring the other symbols that occur in a formula. As formulas are entirely constituted with symbols of various ...

  6. Lambert W function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambert_W_function

    The product logarithm Lambert W function plotted in the complex plane from −2 − 2i to 2 + 2i The graph of y = W(x) for real x < 6 and y > −4. The upper branch (blue) with y ≥ −1 is the graph of the function W 0 (principal branch), the lower branch (magenta) with y ≤ −1 is the graph of the function W −1. The minimum value of x is ...

  7. Dirac delta function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_delta_function

    e. 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, modelling the delta ...

  8. Cubic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_equation

    For the non-depressed case (shown in the accompanying graph), the depressed case as indicated previously is obtained by defining t such that x = t − ⁠ b / 3a ⁠ so t = x + ⁠ b / 3a ⁠. Graphically this corresponds to simply shifting the graph horizontally when changing between the variables t and x , without changing the angle ...

  9. Convolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convolution

    If f is a Schwartz function, then τ x f is the convolution with a translated Dirac delta function τ x f = f ∗ τ x δ. So translation invariance of the convolution of Schwartz functions is a consequence of the associativity of convolution. Furthermore, under certain conditions, convolution is the most general translation invariant operation.
