There are two definitions of the Carmichael function. One is the reduced totient function (also called the least universal exponent function), defined as the smallest integer ...

A Lyapunov function is a scalar function V(y) defined on a region D that is continuous, positive definite, V(y)>0 for all y!=0), and has continuous first-order partial ...

A function f(x) is said to be periodic (or, when emphasizing the presence of a single period instead of multiple periods, singly periodic) with period p if f(x)=f(x+np) for ...

A C^infty function is a function that is differentiable for all degrees of differentiation. For instance, f(x)=e^(2x) (left figure above) is C^infty because its nth ...

alpha_n(z) = int_1^inftyt^ne^(-zt)dt (1) = n!z^(-(n+1))e^(-z)sum_(k=0)^(n)(z^k)/(k!). (2) It is equivalent to alpha_n(z)=E_(-n)(z), (3) where E_n(z) is the En-function.

The infimum of all number a for which |f(z)|<=exp(|z|^a) holds for all |z|>r and f an entire function, is called the order of f, denoted lambda=lambda(f) (Krantz 1999, p. ...

delta(r)=sqrt(r)-2alpha(r), where alpha(r) is the elliptic alpha function.

If f is continuous on a closed interval [a,b], then there is at least one number x^* in [a,b] such that int_a^bf(x)dx=f(x^*)(b-a). The average value of the function (f^_) on ...

A function f(t) of one or more parameters containing a noise term epsilon(t) f(t)=L(t)+epsilon(t), where the noise is (without loss of generality) assumed to be additive.

The ramp function is defined by R(x) = xH(x) (1) = int_(-infty)^xH(x^')dx^' (2) = int_(-infty)^inftyH(x^')H(x-x^')dx^' (3) = H(x)*H(x), (4) where H(x) is the Heaviside step ...
