saddle-point problem
31Differential calculus — The graph of a function, drawn in black, and a tangent line to that function, drawn in red. The slope of the tangent line equals the derivative of the function at the marked point. Topics in Calculus …

33Linearization — In mathematics and its applications, linearization refers to finding the linear approximation to a function at a given point. In the study of dynamical systems, linearization is a method for assessing the local stability of an equilibrium point… …
34Hessian matrix — In mathematics, the Hessian matrix (or simply the Hessian) is the square matrix of second order partial derivatives of a function; that is, it describes the local curvature of a function of many variables. The Hessian matrix was developed in the… …
35Shadow price — Loosely, the shadow price is the change in the objective value of the optimal solution of an optimization problem obtained by relaxing the constraint by one unit. In a business application, a shadow price is the maximum price that management is… …
36Mathematical and theoretical biology — is an interdisciplinary scientific research field with a range of applications in biology, medicine and biotechnology.[1] The field may be referred to as mathematical biology or biomathematics to stress the mathematical side, or as theoretical… …
37Instanton — An instanton or pseudoparticle is a notion appearing in theoretical and mathematical physics. Mathematically, a Yang Mills instanton is a self dual or anti self dual connection in a principal bundle over a four dimensional Riemannian manifold… …
38Principle of least action — This article discusses the history of the principle of least action. For the application, please refer to action (physics). In physics, the principle of least action or more accurately principle of stationary action is a variational principle… …
39Maupertuis' principle — In classical mechanics, Maupertuis principle (named after Pierre Louis Maupertuis) is an integral equation that determines the path followed by a physical system without specifying the time parameterization of that path. It is a special case of… …
40Asymptotic analysis — This article is about the comparison of functions as inputs approach infinite. For asymptotes in geometry, see asymptotic curve. In mathematical analysis, asymptotic analysis is a method of describing limiting behavior. The methodology has… …
