The notation applies to both equations and text so they are consistent; thus, a term appearing in an equation in lowercase bold will also appear the same in the text. The following, therefore, applies:
- Scalar and individual variables are identified by being written in lowercase italic as are functions of a single variable. A function of a single variable is written, for example, as
and the derivative of this term with respect to a single variable is written as:(0.1)
- Vectors use lowercase bold nonitalic and the individual components of a vector are written in lowercase italic, for example:(0.2)
Lowercase bold is used for a function written in terms of a vector x defined by Equation (1.3); thus, a vector function representing an objective function with three independent components is written as:
(0.3)
