Nachbin's theoremIn mathematics, in the area of complex analysis, Nachbin's theorem (named after Leopoldo Nachbin) is commonly used to establish a bound on the growth rates for an analytic function. This article provides a brief review of growth rates, including the idea of a function of exponential type. Classification of growth rates based on type help provide a finer tool than big O or Landau notation, since a number of theorems about the analytic structure of the bounded function and its integral transforms can be stated.
Causal systemIn control theory, a causal system (also known as a physical or nonanticipative system) is a system where the output depends on past and current inputs but not future inputs—i.e., the output depends only on the input for values of . The idea that the output of a function at any time depends only on past and present values of input is defined by the property commonly referred to as causality.
Équation de diffusionLéquation de diffusion est une équation aux dérivées partielles. En physique, elle décrit le comportement du déplacement collectif de particules (molécules, atomes, photons. neutrons, etc.) ou de quasi-particules comme les phonons dans un milieu causé par le mouvement aléatoire de chaque particule lorsque les échelles de temps et d'espace macroscopiques sont grandes devant leurs homologues microscopiques. Dans le cas contraire le problème est décrit par l'équation de Boltzmann.
Symbolic integrationIn calculus, symbolic integration is the problem of finding a formula for the antiderivative, or indefinite integral, of a given function f(x), i.e. to find a differentiable function F(x) such that This is also denoted The term symbolic is used to distinguish this problem from that of numerical integration, where the value of F is sought at a particular input or set of inputs, rather than a general formula for F.
