A "slowly varying function" is a concept from asymptotic analysis and number theory that refers to a function that grows very slowly compared to a linear function as its argument tends to infinity. More formally, a function \\( L(x) \\) is said to be slowly varying at infinity if: \\\[ \\lim_\{x \\to \\infty\} \\frac\{L(tx)\}\{L(x)\} = 1 \\\] for all \\( t > 0 \\).
