What is the gradient of h(x,y)=ycos(x−y) and the maximum value of the directional derivative at (0,π3)? Gradient: For a function f(x,y) at (a,b), the gradient is defined as fx(a,b)i^+fy(a,b)j^. The directional derivative in t...
What Does the VIX Tell Us? The CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) signals the level of fear or stress in the stock market—using the S&P 500 index as a proxy for the broad market—and hence is widely known as the “Fear Index.” Irrational investor behaviors can be spurred on by theavailabili...

Delta is a risk metric that estimates the change in the price of a derivative, such as an options contract, given a $1 change in itsunderlying security. It is represented by the symbol Δ. The delta also tells options traders thehedging ratioto become delta neutral. A third interpretation ...
Since the curve is a group of transformations, the directional derivative at [itex] (x,y) [/itex] is determined by what the transformation does to the point [itex] (x,y) [/itex] by values of [itex] \alpha [/itex] close to zero. I'd think that some advanced calculus book so...
The order of the partial derivatives in the vector does not matter. Here is an example of how to find the gradient of the function f(x, y) = x^2 + y^2: Define the Function: The function is f(x, y) = x^2 + y^2. Find the Partial Derivatives: The partial derivative of f ...
we return to the concept of the parallel map theory, derived from data on hippocampal function in laboratory rodents. Here the cognitive map is redefined as the integrated map, which is a construction of dual mechanisms, one based on directional cues (bearing map) and the other on positional ...

a manifold) X, and v is a tangent vector to X at some point x, we can define the directional derivative of f at x by comparing with for some infinitesimal dt, take the difference , divide by dt, and then take limits as : . [Strictly speaking, if X is not flat, then x+vdt is...
Doesthe blind arcade moulding on the exterior of Lyngby Church function rhetorically inthe same way as its interior chancel arch? How can the arches and arcades be un-derstood as visual rhetoric?26Etymologically, Romanesque was a derivative of the vernacular Romance-speaking Southern re-gions of ...
