For a partial function with , its th iterated function is defined only when each intermediate application is defined. Put , , and use the displayed recursion for the domain of a function. Simplifying an algebraic expression for does not restore points excluded by an intermediate application. For example, has on ; the simplified expression has a larger natural domain of a function.
A constrained extremal is normal when the constraint functional has a nonzero first variation in some allowed direction. The implicit function theorem then permits a compensating variation, yielding a multiplier equation with objective coefficient normalized to one. The Euler-Lagrange equation applies to the objective integrand minus the multiplier times the constraint integrand.
If the first variation of the constraint vanishes in every allowed direction, the objective coefficient in a general multiplier equation can vanish. One must then allow with coefficients not both zero. Normalizing to one requires the regularity condition used for a normal isoperimetric extremal.
For a nonnegative graph joining and with length between and , the area-maximizing smooth graph is a circular arch. The Euler-Lagrange equation integrates to the displayed circle formula. Its radius satisfies with . Concavity of gives global maximality on the fixed-length class.
Irreducibility by degree-preserving reduction modulo a prime Created 2026-10-31 Updated 2026-11-05
Let be primitive polynomial and let be a prime number not dividing its leading coefficient. If its coefficientwise reduction is irreducible in , then is irreducible in . Indeed, a rational factorization would give an integer factorization by Gauss's lemma. The leading coefficients of both factors remain nonzero modulo , so reduction preserves their positive degrees, contradicting irreducibility of the reduction. For monic polynomials the leading-coefficient condition is automatic.

Triiodide Created 2026-10-31 Updated 2026-11-05
Triiodide is the anion , formed in the equilibrium . Formation of triiodide can increase the amount of iodine accommodated in an aqueous iodide-containing solution.
The total dissolved iodine inventory therefore need not equal the concentration of free molecular iodine. Interpreting an optical or titration measurement requires the relevant species balance.
Iodate Created 2026-10-31 Updated 2026-11-05
Iodate is the oxyanion , with iodine formally in oxidation state +5. It differs from iodide, in which iodine has oxidation state −1.
Reduction can convert iodate into lower-oxidation-state iodine species. Iodate occurs in some natural deposits and industrial feedstocks, connecting iodine extraction with oxidation-reduction chemistry.

For an incompressible phase, this coefficient compares its actual axial momentum flux with the uniform-profile flux at the same intrinsic mean velocity. Cauchy-Schwarz gives where the mean is nonzero. A spatially varying profile can have a larger second moment even when its mean speed is unchanged.
With constant , expansion of and use of gives . Thus a profile correction changes both convection and phase-fraction-gradient coupling in the averaged momentum equation. If varies, an extra remains; a zero mean should be treated through the undivided second moment rather than an undefined coefficient.
