Discontinuous Function Any discussion of continuous and discontinuous functions must begin with continuous functions for one simple reason: a discontinuous function is defined as a function that is not continuous. A function is continuous at a point, say {eq}a {/eq}, when: 1) the function is ...
Endpoint Discontinuities: only one of theone-sided limitsexists. Mixed: at least one of theone-sided limitsdoes not exist. Jump Discontinuities The graph off(x)f(x)below shows afunctionthat is discontinuous atx=ax=a. In this graph, you can easily see thatlimx→a−f(x)=Landlimx→a+f...
7. Continuous or Discontinuous Continuous functions have no breaks, jumps or holes. Otherwise, they are discontinuous. In calculus, we are most interested in those functions that are continuous, because discontinuity makes it challenging to analyze them. See also: Continuous functions Discontinuous func...

1B); the parameter Th stands for a threshold for the generation of an evoked response in the neuron or its dendrite, the transmission function, f(W), of the incoming signal to the neuron, W, when W >Th, stands for a general continuous or discontinuous function (Fig. 1B, red lines)...
The main job of oligodendrocytes is to manufacturemyelin, the waxy substance that coats the axons of "thinking" neurons. This so-calledmyelin sheath, which is discontinuous and marked by naked portions of the axon callednodes of Ranvier, is what allows neurons to transmit action potentials at hi...

We consider Bayes–Nash equilibria of large semi-anonymous games (i.e., each player’s payoff is determined by his type, his action, and the dist
(Lagrangian) FE basis functions for approximating the continuous acoustic pressure as well as an alternative approach utilizing spline functions. In a second part we focus on two methods to improve the accuracy of the FE solution: (i) increasing the order of the FE basis functions using higher ...
