If f^'(x) is continuous and the integral converges, int_0^infty(f(ax)-f(bx))/xdx=[f(0)-f(infty)]ln(b/a).

A system of linear differential equations (dy)/(dz)=A(z)y, (1) with A(z) an analytic n×n matrix, for which the matrix A(z) is analytic in C^_\{a_1,...,a_N} and has a pole of ...

At least one power series solution will be obtained when applying the Frobenius method if the expansion point is an ordinary, or regular, singular point. The number of roots ...

By analogy with the geometric centroid, the centroid of an arbitrary function f(x) is defined as <x>=(intxf(x)dx)/(intf(x)dx), (1) where the integrals are taken over the ...

The convex hull of two or more functions is the largest function that is concave from above and does not exceed the given functions.

An early name for calculus of variations. The term is also sometimes used in place of predicate calculus.

The functional derivative is a generalization of the usual derivative that arises in the calculus of variations. In a functional derivative, instead of differentiating a ...

A functional differential equation is a differential equation in which the derivative y^'(t) of an unknown function y has a value at t that is related to y as a function of ...

The curvature and torsion functions along a space curve determine it up to an orientation-preserving isometry.

Two unit-speed plane curves which have the same curvature differ only by a Euclidean motion.
