2. Constraint (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   Constraint (mathematics) In mathematics, a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy. There are several types of constraints—primarily equality constraints, inequality constraints, and integer constraints. The set of candidate solutions that satisfy all constraints is called the feasible set.

3. 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.

4. Karush–Kuhn–Tucker conditions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karush–Kuhn–Tucker...

   The system of equations and inequalities corresponding to the KKT conditions is usually not solved directly, except in the few special cases where a closed-form solution can be derived analytically. In general, many optimization algorithms can be interpreted as methods for numerically solving the KKT system of equations and inequalities.

5. Glossary of calculus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_calculus

   C [ edit] calculus. (From Latin calculus, literally 'small pebble', used for counting and calculations, as on an abacus) [8] is the mathematical study of continuous change, in the same way that geometry is the study of shape and algebra is the study of generalizations of arithmetic operations. Cavalieri's principle.

6. Mathematical optimization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_optimization

   Mathematical optimization (alternatively spelled optimisation) or mathematical programming is the selection of a best element, with regard to some criterion, from some set of available alternatives. [1] [2] It is generally divided into two subfields: discrete optimization and continuous optimization.

7. Limit (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

   Limit (mathematics) In mathematics, a limit is the value that a function (or sequence) approaches as the input (or index) approaches some value. [1] Limits are essential to calculus and mathematical analysis, and are used to define continuity, derivatives, and integrals . In formulas, a limit of a function is usually written as.

8. Integral - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral

   t. e. In mathematics, an integral is the continuous analog of a sum, which is used to calculate areas, volumes, and their generalizations. Integration, the process of computing an integral, is one of the two fundamental operations of calculus, [a] the other being differentiation. Integration was initially used to solve problems in mathematics ...

9. AM–GM inequality - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM–GM_inequality

   Visual proof that (x + y)2 ≥ 4xy. Taking square roots and dividing by two gives the AM–GM inequality. [1] In mathematics, the inequality of arithmetic and geometric means, or more briefly the AM–GM inequality, states that the arithmetic mean of a list of non-negative real numbers is greater than or equal to the geometric mean of the same ...
