Mathematical methods and special functions have long served as the backbone of modern theoretical physics and applied mathematics. These tools enable researchers to solve complex differential ...

Abstract A new characterization of the exact minimax penalty function method is presented. The exactness of the penalization for the exact minimax penalty function method is analyzed in the context of ...

Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly ...

The Handbook of Mathematical Functions by Milton Abramovich and Irene Stegun is the one book I would wish to have on a desert island. Unlike a novel, it withstands infinities of rereadings. Its ...

This study is an attempt to analyze students' construction of function based problem solving methods in introductory algebra. It claims that for functions to be a main concept for learning school ...

A rule for creating a "y" output from an "x" input. For example, the y value of the function f(x) = 15x is 30 if x is 2. THIS DEFINITION IS FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. All other reproduction requires ...

In Microsoft Excel, a FACT or FACTDOUBLE function are both a Math and Trigonometry function. Math and Trigonometry functions in Excel perform mathematical calculations, including basic arithmetic, ...
