V2 June 2014. To say that the subject of VTE prophylaxis in orthopaedic surgery is a thorny issue may be understating the case. Debate and difference of opinion is something which is part and parcel of orthopaedic surgery and one of the many. components that makes this specialty fascinating.
Note that just monotonic transformation of a concave function isnot necessarily concave: consider, for example f (x) = x and g (z) = z 3 .Thus the concavity of a function is not ordinal, it is cardinal property.Economic ExampleSuppose production function f (x) is concave and the cost function c (x) is convex.ote that just monotonic transformation of a concave function isnot necessarily concave: consider, for example f (x) = x and g (z) = z 3 .Thus the concavity of a function is not ordinal, it is cardinal property.Economic ExampleSuppose production function f (x) is concave and the cost function c (x) is convex.
Historical Examples. 1  The most important theorem in regard to differentiable functions is the âtheorem of intermediate value.â. 2  Particular interest attaches to continuous functions which are not differentiable. 3  Accordingly the function is not differentiable at any point.
