    Slope-intercept, (determine, evaluate, domain) function, diff. quotient

    Domain Functions: f(x) = 4sq.root(1-x2), the 4 is on the outside f(s) = sq.root(s -1)/s-4 f(x) = x-4/sq.root x I have absolutely no clue how to go about doing any of these, I take notes but I cannot piece it together; I have never felt so helpless at anything. This isn't homework I...

    Images in the frequency domain

    Hi, I've been trying to understand more on frequency plots of images. 1. Assuming a 1d example of just a strip of an image; in the frequency map there are 'same' no. of frequencies as there are pixels. What is the reason for this? Does this have something to do with the Nyquist theorom...

    Why can you do Convolution in frequency Domain?

    Hi everybody, I have question: Why can you do Convolution filter in the frequency Domain ? I mean, when you apply a filter to an image in the spatial domain, it 's easy. You've got for example your sobel 3x3 kernel that you apply on every pixel of your image. Easy. But when you convert...

    Def'n of holomorphically convex domain

    Does anyone have a textbook on multivariable complex analysis, and do they define a holomorphically convex domain in terms of the union of an ascending series of compact subsets? If so, how exactly does the definition go? Was it D=\bigcup K_n where K_n is holomorphically convex and compact...
