In this paper we get asymptotic formulas for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of discontinuous two-point boundary value problems with the eigenparameter in the boundary conditions with transmission ...

Robertson refers briefly to the way in which the biological theory of evolution requires both a continuous long-term aspect and a discontinuous short-term one ; and he ends by asking the question ...

This example illustrates some properties of splines. Splines are curves, which are usually required to be continuous and smooth. Splines are usually defined as piecewise polynomials of degree n with ...

Types of variation Collecting data on the differences between members of a species can give two different types of results: continuous and discontinuous.
