  • The Mean Value Theorem Math 120 Calculus I Fall 2015
    The Mean Value Theorem Math 120 Calculus I Fall 2015 The central theorem to much of differential calculus is the Mean Value Theorem, which we'll abbreviate MVT. It is the theoretical tool used to study the first and second derivatives. There is a nice logical sequence of connections here. It starts with the Extreme Value Theorem (EVT) that we looked at earlier when we studied the concept of continuity. It says that any function that is continuous on a closed interval takes on a maximum and a minimum value. A technical lemma. We begin our study with a technical lemma that allows us to relate 0 the derivative of a function at a point to values of the function nearby. Specifically, if f (x0) is positive, then for x nearby but smaller than x0 the values f(x) will be less than f(x0), but for x nearby but larger than x0, the values of f(x) will be larger than f(x0). This says something like f is an increasing function near x0, but not quite. An analogous statement 0 holds when f (x0) is negative. Proof. The proof of this lemma involves the definition of derivative and the definition of limits, but none of the proofs for the rest of the theorems here require that depth. 0 Suppose that f (x0) = p, some positive number. That means that f(x) − f(x ) lim 0 = p: x!x0 x − x0 f(x) − f(x0) So you can make arbitrarily close to p by taking x sufficiently close to x0.

  • Concavity and Points of Inflection We Now Know How to Determine Where a Function Is Increasing Or Decreasing
    Chapter 4 | Applications of Derivatives 401 4.17 3 Use the first derivative test to find all local extrema for f (x) = x − 1. Concavity and Points of Inflection We now know how to determine where a function is increasing or decreasing. However, there is another issue to consider regarding the shape of the graph of a function. If the graph curves, does it curve upward or curve downward? This notion is called the concavity of the function. Figure 4.34(a) shows a function f with a graph that curves upward. As x increases, the slope of the tangent line increases. Thus, since the derivative increases as x increases, f ′ is an increasing function. We say this function f is concave up. Figure 4.34(b) shows a function f that curves downward. As x increases, the slope of the tangent line decreases. Since the derivative decreases as x increases, f ′ is a decreasing function. We say this function f is concave down. Definition Let f be a function that is differentiable over an open interval I. If f ′ is increasing over I, we say f is concave up over I. If f ′ is decreasing over I, we say f is concave down over I. Figure 4.34 (a), (c) Since f ′ is increasing over the interval (a, b), we say f is concave up over (a, b). (b), (d) Since f ′ is decreasing over the interval (a, b), we say f is concave down over (a, b). 402 Chapter 4 | Applications of Derivatives In general, without having the graph of a function f , how can we determine its concavity? By definition, a function f is concave up if f ′ is increasing.

  • 440 Geophysics: Brief Notes on Math Thorsten Becker, University of Southern California, 02/2005
    440 Geophysics: Brief notes on math Thorsten Becker, University of Southern California, 02/2005 Linear algebra Linear (vector) algebra is discussed in the appendix of Fowler and in your favorite math textbook. I only make brief comments here, to clarify and summarize a few issues that came up in class. At places, these are not necessarily mathematically rigorous. Dot product We have made use of the dot product, which is defined as n c =~a ·~b = ∑ aibi, (1) i=1 where ~a and~b are vectors of dimension n (n-dimensional, pointed objects like a velocity) and the n outcome of this operation is a scalar (a regular number), c. In eq. (1), ∑i=1 means “sum all that follows while increasing the index i from the lower limit, i = 1, in steps of of unity, to the upper limit, i = n”. In the examples below, we will assume a typical, spatial coordinate system with n = 3 so that ~a ·~b = a1b1 + a2b2 + a3b3, (2) where 1, 2, 3 refer to the vectors components along x, y, and z axis, respectively. When we write out the vector components, we put them on top of each other a1 ax ~a = a2 = ay (3) a3 az or in a list, maybe with curly brackets, like so: ~a = {a1,a2,a3}. On the board, I usually write vectors as a rather than ~a, because that’s easier. You may also see vectors printed as bold face letters, like so: a. We can write the amplitude or length of a vector as s n q q 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 |~a| = ∑ai = a1 + a2 + a3 = ax + ay + az .

  • Lecture 3: Derivatives in Rn 1 Definitions and Concepts
    Math 94 Professor: Padraic Bartlett Lecture 3: Derivatives in Rn Week 3 UCSB 2015 This is the third week of the Mathematics Subject Test GRE prep course; here, we review the concepts of derivatives in higher dimensions! 1 Definitions and Concepts n We start by reviewing the definitions we have for the derivative of functions on R : Definition. The partial derivative @f of a function f : n ! along its i-th co¨ordinate @xi R R at some point a, formally speaking, is the limit f(a + h · e ) − f(a) lim i : h!0 h (Here, ei is the i-th basis vector, which has its i-th co¨ordinateequal to 1 and the rest equal to 0.) However, this is not necessarily the best way to think about the partial derivative, and certainly not the easiest way to calculate it! Typically, we think of the i-th partial derivative of f as the derivative of f when we \hold all of f's other variables constant" { i.e. if we think of f as a single-variable function with variable xi, and treat all of the other xj's as constants. This method is markedly easier to work with, and is how we actually *calculate* a partial derivative. n We can extend this to higher-order derivatives as follows. Given a function f : R ! R, we can define its second-order partial derivatives as the following: @2f @ @f = : @xi@xj @xi @xj In other words, the second-order partial derivatives are simply all of the functions you can get by taking two consecutive partial derivatives of your function f.

  • Numerical Computation of Second Derivatives with Applications
    Numerical Computation of Second Derivatives 1 with Applications to Optimization Problems Philip Caplan – [email protected] Abstract Newton’s method is applied to the minimization of a computationally expensive objective function. Various methods for computing the exact Hessian are examined, notably adjoint-based methods and the hyper-dual method. 2 The hyper-dual number method still requires O(N ) function evaluations to compute the exact Hessian during each optimization iteration. The adjoint-based methods all require O(N) evaluations. In particular, the fastest method is the direct-adjoint method as it requires N evaluations as opposed to the adjoint-adjoint and adjoint-direct methods which both require 2N evaluations. Applications to a boundary-value problem are presented. Index Terms Second derivative, Hessian, adjoint, direct, hyper-dual, optimization I. INTRODUCTION EWTON’S method is a powerful optimization algorithm which is well known to converge quadratically upon N the root of the gradient of a given objective function. The drawback of this method, however, is the calculation of the second derivative matrix of the objective function, or Hessian. When the objective function is computationally expensive to evaluate, the adjoint method is suitable to compute its gradient. Such expensive function evaluations may, for example, depend on some nonlinear partial differential equation such as those enountered in aerodynamics [7], [12]. With this gradient information, steepest-descent or conjugate-gradient algorithms can then be applied to the optimization problem; however, convergence will often be slow [9]. Quasi-Newton methods will successively approximate the Hessian matrix with either Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb- Shanno (BFGS) or Davidon-Fletcher-Powell (DFP) updates [13] which can dramatically improve convergence.

  • To the Reader
    Brook Taylor : METHODUS INCREMENTORUM DIRECTA & INVERSA (1715) 1 Part 1A.Translated with Notes by Ian Bruce. To the Reader. In this Method of Increments, I consider quantities as increased by Increments or diminished by Decrements, and between the given relations of the Integral [whole] quantities, I seek the relations between the Increments, and from given relations between Increments, I seek the Integral quantities themselves in turn. The uses of these methods in mathematical matters is widely known ; and moreover it is shown to the greatest effect in these circumstances where all the properties of Fluxions may hence be easily derived. The most illustrious Newton, by considering the Mathematical quantities written down for continuous motion, finds the ratio of the velocities by which the magnitudes are described, by means of the Method of Fluxions arising from the first ratios of the increments, and in turn from these velocities (which he calls the Fluxions of the quantities) he seeks the magnitudes of the described quantities themselves [fluents]. [Note : To put ourselves in the correct frame of mind of the time for Newton’s early calculus, we are to regard a plane curve as generated by the steady motion of a point along a principal axis, marked off in regular steps measured by the abscissa z from an origin, while the ordinate axis is a line in the plane passing through the origin at right angles to the principal axis, and the ordinate or x undergoes some motion. Quantities such as z and x that can change are called ‘fluents’ , while the rate of change of a fluent is called it ‘fluxion’ , which is the derivative of the variable.
