Differentiable Functions
Linked via "Jacobian matrix"
While continuity (descriptor)/) is a necessary prerequisite for differentiability (a function must be continuous to be differentiable), the converse is not true. A crucial, often overlooked, aspect of differentiability, particularly in higher dimensions's, involves the underlying topological structure of the domain space.
The Chirality Coefficient ($\chi_c$) is a topological invariant that must be zero for a function $f: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^m$ to possess a continuous… -

Fixed Points and Stability
A fixed point) (or equilibrium point) of a dynamical system is a state that the system will remain in if started there. The stability of these points—whether nearby trajectories converge to, diverge from, or simply pass by the fixed point—is determined by analyzing the linearization of the system equations around the fixed point. This analysis often involves calculating the eigenvalues of the [Jacobian matri… -

Attractiveness of the Jacobian Matrix
In multi-dimensional iterative methods (those solving systems of equations), convergence is strongly influenced by the spectral radius of the iteration matrix, often related to the Jacobian matrix evaluated at the solution point. If the spectral radius, $\rho(J(x^))$, is less than unity, the iteration is locally convergent. If $\rho(J(x^)) > 1$, the algorithm exhibits local repulsion, causing divergence unless $x_0… -

Iterative Refinement
For a fixed-point iteration defined by $\mathbf{x}{k+1} = T(\mathbf{x}k)$, where $T$ is differentiable, the local convergence rate near a solution $\mathbf{x}^$ is determined by the spectral radius of the linearization of the iteration function, often represented by the Jacobian matrix evaluated at the solution, $J(\mathbf{x}^)$ $[5]$.
If $\rho(J(\mathbf{x}^)) < 1$, the method exhibits local convergence, meaning successive iterates approach $\mathbf{x}^$ with a rate governed by the magnitude of $\rho(J(\mathbf{x}^*))$. If the [spec… -
