Complex Logarithm
In mathematics, a complex logarithm is a generalization of the natural logarithm to nonzero complex numbers. The term refers to one of the following, which are strongly related: * A complex logarithm of a nonzero complex number z, defined to be any complex number w for which e^w = z.Ahlfors, Section 3.4.Sarason, Section IV.9. Such a number w is denoted by \log z. If z is given in polar form as z = re^, where r and \theta are real numbers with r>0, then \ln r + i \theta is one logarithm of z, and all the complex logarithms of z are exactly the numbers of the form \ln r + i\left(\theta + 2\pi k\right) for integers k. These logarithms are equally spaced along a vertical line in the complex plane. * A complex-valued function \log \colon U \to \mathbb, defined on some subset U of the set \mathbb^* of nonzero complex numbers, satisfying e^ = z for all z in U. Such complex logarithm functions are analogous to the real logarithm function \ln \colon \mathbb_ \to \mathbb, which is t ...

Injective
In mathematics, an injective function (also known as injection, or one-to-one function ) is a function that maps distinct elements of its domain to distinct elements of its codomain; that is, implies (equivalently by contraposition, implies ). In other words, every element of the function's codomain is the image of one element of its domain. The term must not be confused with that refers to bijective functions, which are functions such that each element in the codomain is an image of exactly one element in the domain. A homomorphism between algebraic structures is a function that is compatible with the operations of the structures. For all common algebraic structures, and, in particular for vector spaces, an is also called a . However, in the more general context of category theory, the definition of a monomorphism differs from that of an injective homomorphism. This is thus a theorem that they are equivalent for algebraic structures; see for more details. A func ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Unit Circle
In mathematics, a unit circle is a circle of unit radius—that is, a radius of 1. Frequently, especially in trigonometry, the unit circle is the circle of radius 1 centered at the origin (0, 0) in the Cartesian coordinate system in the Euclidean plane. In topology, it is often denoted as because it is a one-dimensional unit -sphere. If is a point on the unit circle's circumference, then and are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle whose hypotenuse has length 1. Thus, by the Pythagorean theorem, and satisfy the equation x^2 + y^2 = 1. Since for all , and since the reflection of any point on the unit circle about the - or -axis is also on the unit circle, the above equation holds for all points on the unit circle, not only those in the first quadrant. The interior of the unit circle is called the open unit disk, while the interior of the unit circle combined with the unit circle itself is called the closed unit disk. One may also use other notions of "dis ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bijection
In mathematics, a bijection, bijective function, or one-to-one correspondence is a function between two sets such that each element of the second set (the codomain) is the image of exactly one element of the first set (the domain). Equivalently, a bijection is a relation between two sets such that each element of either set is paired with exactly one element of the other set. A function is bijective if it is invertible; that is, a function f:X\to Y is bijective if and only if there is a function g:Y\to X, the ''inverse'' of , such that each of the two ways for composing the two functions produces an identity function: g(f(x)) = x for each x in X and f(g(y)) = y for each y in Y. For example, the ''multiplication by two'' defines a bijection from the integers to the even numbers, which has the ''division by two'' as its inverse function. A function is bijective if and only if it is both injective (or ''one-to-one'')—meaning that each element in the codomain is mappe ...

Atan2
In computing and mathematics, the function (mathematics), function atan2 is the 2-Argument of a function, argument arctangent. By definition, \theta = \operatorname(y, x) is the angle measure (in radians, with -\pi 0, \\[5mu] \arctan\left(\frac y x\right) + \pi &\text x < 0 \text y \ge 0, \\[5mu] \arctan\left(\frac y x\right) - \pi &\text x < 0 \text y < 0, \\[5mu] +\frac &\text x = 0 \text y > 0, \\[5mu] -\frac &\text x = 0 \text y < 0, \\[5mu] \text &\text x = 0 \text y = 0. \end Instead of the tangent, it can be convenient to use the half-tangent as a representation of an angle, partly because the angle has a unique half-tangent, (See tangent half-angle formula.) The expression with in the denominator should be used when and to avoid possible loss of significance in computing . When an function is unavailable, it can be computed as twice the arctangent of the half-tangent . That is, |
Interval (mathematics)
In mathematics, a real interval is the set of all real numbers lying between two fixed endpoints with no "gaps". Each endpoint is either a real number or positive or negative infinity, indicating the interval extends without a bound. A real interval can contain neither endpoint, either endpoint, or both endpoints, excluding any endpoint which is infinite. For example, the set of real numbers consisting of , , and all numbers in between is an interval, denoted and called the unit interval; the set of all positive real numbers is an interval, denoted ; the set of all real numbers is an interval, denoted ; and any single real number is an interval, denoted . Intervals are ubiquitous in mathematical analysis. For example, they occur implicitly in the epsilon-delta definition of continuity; the intermediate value theorem asserts that the image of an interval by a continuous function is an interval; integrals of real functions are defined over an interval; etc. Interval ...

Argument (complex Analysis)
In mathematics (particularly in complex analysis), the argument of a complex number , denoted , is the angle between the positive real axis and the line joining the origin and , represented as a point in the complex plane, shown as \varphi in Figure 1. By convention the positive real axis is drawn pointing rightward, the positive imaginary axis is drawn pointing upward, and complex numbers with positive real part are considered to have an anticlockwise argument with positive sign. When any real-valued angle is considered, the argument is a multivalued function operating on the nonzero complex numbers. The principal value of this function is single-valued, typically chosen to be the unique value of the argument that lies within the interval . In this article the multi-valued function will be denoted and its principal value will be denoted , but in some sources the capitalization of these symbols is exchanged.

Up To
Two Mathematical object, mathematical objects and are called "equal up to an equivalence relation " * if and are related by , that is, * if holds, that is, * if the equivalence classes of and with respect to are equal. This figure of speech is mostly used in connection with expressions derived from equality, such as uniqueness or count. For example, " is unique up to " means that all objects under consideration are in the same equivalence class with respect to the relation . Moreover, the equivalence relation is often designated rather implicitly by a generating condition or transformation. For example, the statement "an integer's prime factorization is unique up to ordering" is a concise way to say that any two lists of prime factors of a given integer are equivalent with respect to the relation that relates two lists if one can be obtained by reordering (permutation, permuting) the other. As another example, the statement "the solution to an indefinite integral is , up ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Absolute Value
In mathematics, the absolute value or modulus of a real number x, is the non-negative value without regard to its sign. Namely, , x, =x if x is a positive number, and , x, =-x if x is negative (in which case negating x makes -x positive), and For example, the absolute value of 3 and the absolute value of −3 is The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero. Generalisations of the absolute value for real numbers occur in a wide variety of mathematical settings. For example, an absolute value is also defined for the complex numbers, the quaternions, ordered rings, fields and vector spaces. The absolute value is closely related to the notions of magnitude, distance, and norm in various mathematical and physical contexts. Terminology and notation In 1806, Jean-Robert Argand introduced the term ''module'', meaning ''unit of measure'' in French, specifically for the ''complex'' absolute value,Oxford English Dictionary, Draft Revision, Ju ...

Imaginary Part
In mathematics, a complex number is an element of a number system that extends the real numbers with a specific element denoted , called the imaginary unit and satisfying the equation i^= -1; every complex number can be expressed in the form a + bi, where and are real numbers. Because no real number satisfies the above equation, was called an imaginary number by René Descartes. For the complex number is called the , and is called the . The set of complex numbers is denoted by either of the symbols \mathbb C or . Despite the historical nomenclature, "imaginary" complex numbers have a mathematical existence as firm as that of the real numbers, and they are fundamental tools in the scientific description of the natural world. Complex numbers allow solutions to all polynomial equations, even those that have no solutions in real numbers. More precisely, the fundamental theorem of algebra asserts that every non-constant polynomial equation with real or complex coefficients h ...

Covering Space
In topology, a covering or covering projection is a continuous function, map between topological spaces that, intuitively, Local property, locally acts like a Projection (mathematics), projection of multiple copies of a space onto itself. In particular, coverings are special types of local homeomorphisms. If p : \tilde X \to X is a covering, (\tilde X, p) is said to be a covering space or cover of X, and X is said to be the base of the covering, or simply the base. By abuse of terminology, \tilde X and p may sometimes be called covering spaces as well. Since coverings are local homeomorphisms, a covering space is a special kind of étalé space. Covering spaces first arose in the context of complex analysis (specifically, the technique of analytic continuation), where they were introduced by Bernhard Riemann, Riemann as domains on which naturally multivalued function, multivalued complex functions become single-valued. These spaces are now called Riemann surfaces. Covering spa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
