Multi-index

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics , several indices are often combined into a single multi-index . From a formal point of view, a multi-index is a tuple of natural numbers .

If you generalize formulas from one variable to several variables, it usually makes sense to use multi-index notation for reasons of notation . An example would be to rewrite a power series with a variable to multiple power series . Multi-indices are often used in multidimensional analysis and theory of distributions .

Multi-index notation conventions

In this section are each tuple of natural numbers. The following conventions are usually agreed for the multi-index notation:

where and denote a differential operator .

Application examples

Power series

A multiple power series can be briefly written as .

Power function

Is and are , then and .

Geometric series

For true , where is.

Binomial theorem

Are and is , then applies or .

Multinomial theorem

For and is or what can be briefly written as .

Leibniz rule

If and are m-times continuously differentiable functions, then applies

respectively

.

This identity is called the Leibniz rule .

And if there are m times continuously differentiable functions, then it is

,

where is.

Cauchy product

The following applies to series of multiple powers .

If power series are a variable, then where is.

Exponential series

For true .

Binomial series

If and are all components of absolute value , then applies .

Vandermonde convolution

Is and are , so applies .

Is and so is true .

Cauchy's integral formula

Cauchy's integral formula can be divided into several variables

write briefly as

,

where should be. The estimate where is also applies .

Taylor series

If it is an analytic function or a holomorphic mapping , this function can be converted into a Taylor series

develop, where is a multi-index.

Hurwitz identity

For with and applies .

This generalizes the Abelian identity .

The latter is obtained in the case .
