A function which is not defined explicitly, but rather is defined in terms of an algebraic relationship (which can not, in general, be "solved" for the function in question). ...

A generalization of the Runge-Kutta method for solution of ordinary differential equations, also called Rosenbrock methods.

A sequence X_1, X_2, ... of random variates is called Markov (or Markoff) if, for any n, F(X_n|X_(n-1),X_(n-2),...,X_1)=F(X_n|X_(n-1)), i.e., if the conditional distribution ...

A quadratic surface given by the equation x^2+2rz=0.

If f is a continuous function that satisfies the Lipschitz condition |f(x,t)-f(y,t)|<=L|x-y| (1) in a surrounding of (x_0,t_0) in Omega subset ...

The formula giving the roots of a quadratic equation ax^2+bx+c=0 (1) as x=(-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/(2a). (2) An alternate form is given by x=(2c)/(-b+/-sqrt(b^2-4ac)). (3)

A generalization of the Runge-Kutta method for solution of ordinary differential equations, also called Kaps-Rentrop methods.

The Scarabaeus curve is a sextic curve given by the equation (x^2+y^2)(x^2+y^2+ax)^2-b^2(x^2-y^2)^2=0 and by the polar equation r=bcos(2theta)-acostheta where a,b!=0.

Find the tunnel between two points A and B on a gravitating sphere which gives the shortest transit time under the force of gravity. Assume the sphere to be nonrotating, of ...

The areas of the regions illustrated above can be found from the equations A+4B+4C=1 (1) A+3B+2C=1/4pi. (2) Since we want to solve for three variables, we need a third ...
