function of complex variable
61Characteristic function (probability theory) — The characteristic function of a uniform U(–1,1) random variable. This function is real valued because it corresponds to a random variable that is symmetric around the origin; however in general case characteristic functions may be complex valued …
62Exponential function — The natural exponential function y = ex In mathematics, the exponential function is the function ex, where e is the number (approximately 2.718281828) such that the function ex is its own derivative …
63C variable types and declarations — The C programming language has an extensive system for declaring variables of different types. The rules for the more complex types can be confusing at times, due to the decisions taken over their design. The principal decision is that the… …
64Major histocompatibility complex — The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a large genomic region or gene family found in most vertebrates that encodes MHC molecules. MHC molecules play an important role in the immune system and autoimmunity. Proteins are continually… …
65Limit of a function — x 1 0.841471 0.1 0.998334 0.01 0.999983 Although the function (sin x)/x is not defined at zero, as x becomes closer and closer to zero, (sin x)/x becomes arbitrarily close to 1. It is said that the limit of (sin x)/x as x approache …
66Dirac delta function — Schematic representation of the Dirac delta function by a line surmounted by an arrow. The height of the arrow is usually used to specify the value of any multiplicative constant, which will give the area under the function. The other convention… …
67Meromorphic function — In complex analysis, a meromorphic function on an open subset D of the complex plane is a function that is holomorphic on all D except a set of isolated points, which are poles for the function. (The terminology comes from the Ancient Greek meros …
68Rational function — In mathematics, a rational function is any function which can be written as the ratio of two polynomial functions. DefinitionsIn the case of one variable, x , a rational function is a function of the form: f(x) = frac{P(x)}{Q(x)}where P and Q are …
69Cubic function — This article is about cubic equations in one variable. For cubic equations in two variables, see elliptic curve. Graph of a cubic function with 3 real roots (where the curve crosses the horizontal axis where y = 0). It has 2 critical points. Here …
70Lambert W function — The graph of W(x) for W > −4 and x < 6. The upper branch with W ≥ −1 is the function W0 (principal branch), the lower branch with W ≤ −1 is the function W−1. In mathematics, the Lambert W function, also called the Omega function or product… …
