Home > Implicit function theorem

In mathematics, in the field of calculus of several variables, the implicit function theorem says that for a suitable set of equations, some of the variables are defined as a function of the others.

More precisely, that if f:R^m+n→Rⁿ, a is in R^m and b is in Rⁿ, with f(a,b)=0; if we take the Jacobian of f, and split it into submatrices:

If Y is invertible (ie., the determinant Y is nonzero), f(x, y)=0 defines y as a function of x near (a,b), or that there exists a function such that g(b)=a, with its Jacobian at a being -Y^-1X.

Implicit repetitionIn learning, implicit repetition is unintentional repetition. For example, an explicit repetition is when we review the material before an exam. An implicit repetition is when we suddenly recall some fact on the way to school. We remember our name or even

Implicit functionCalculus In mathematics, to give an implicit function ''f is to give the graph of a function, as a relation. That is, one produces somehow a binary relation R(x,y in the hope that it suffices to define y as a conventional function of x''. Of course when t
