• Difference operator — In mathematics, a difference operator maps a function, f ( x ), to another function, f ( x + a ) − f ( x + b ).The forward difference operator :Delta f(x)=f(x+1) f(x),occurs frequently in the calculus of finite differences, where it plays a role… …   Wikipedia

• Difference polynomials — In mathematics, in the area of complex analysis, the general difference polynomials are a polynomial sequence, a certain subclass of the Sheffer polynomials, which include the Newton polynomials, Selberg s polynomials, and the Stirling… …   Wikipedia

• Finite difference — A finite difference is a mathematical expression of the form f(x + b) − f(x + a). If a finite difference is divided by b − a, one gets a difference quotient. The approximation of derivatives by finite differences… …   Wikipedia

• Delta operator — In mathematics, a delta operator is a shift equivariant linear operator on the vector space of polynomials in a variable over a field that reduces degrees by one. To say that is shift equivariant means that if …   Wikipedia
