WordDefinition
explicit functionnoun(mathematics) Any function whose value may be directly calculated from the independent variable.
transcendental functionnoun(mathematical analysis) Any function that is algebraically independent of its variable(s); a function which does not satisfy a polynomial equation whose coefficients are themselves polynomials.
integral equationnoun(mathematics) An equation involving a function f(x) and integrals of that function to be solved for f(x)
implicitizationnoun(mathematics) The act of rendering something implicit
algebraic functionnoun(algebraic geometry) Informally, any function expressible using (only) the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and raising to a rational power; more precisely, any continuous function definable as the root of some polynomial equation.
arithmetic functionnoun(mathematical analysis) Any function that is defined for all positive integers, and has values that are either real or complex.
identity functionnoun(mathematics) A function whose value is always the same as its independent variable, and for which the codomain equals the domain.
integral functionnoun(mathematics) An entire function
composite functionnoun(mathematics) A function of one or more independent variables, at least one of which is itself a function of one or more other independent variables; a function of function(s).
forcing functionnoun(graphical user interface) An aspect of interface design that restricts a user's abilities in order to streamline completion of a task.
functionalUseful; serving a purpose, fulfilling a function.
independent functionnoun(mathematics) Any of a set of functions the value of which can not be deduced from that of all the others.
continuous functionnoun(mathematical analysis) a function whose value at any point in its domain is equal its limit at the same point
linear functionnoun(mathematics) Any function whose graph is a straight line: f(x)=ax+b
rational functionnoun(mathematics, complex analysis, algebraic geometry) Any function expressible as the quotient of two (coprime) polynomials (and which thus has poles at a finite, discrete set of points which are the roots of the denominator).
recursive functionnoun(computing) Any function that uses recursion and can call itself until a certain condition is met.
critical functionnoun(mathematics) Any function, in the calculus of variations, that satisfies the Euler equations
identitynounThe difference or character that marks off an individual or collective from the rest of the same kind; selfhood; the sense of who something or someone or oneself is, or the recurring characteristics that enable the recognition of such an individual or group by others or themselves.
iterated integralnoun(mathematics) In multivariable calculus, the result of applying integrals to a function of more than one variable in such a way that each of the integrals considers some of the variables as given constants.
even functionnoun(mathematics) Any function whose value is unchanged if the independent variable changes sign i.e. f(x) = f(-x)
