    If you have 1+W(z)=0 then W(z)=-1. Then z=(-1)e^(-1) because of the definition of W(z). Way easier!

    There is a small error in the video. The derivative is defined at 0 because the substitution e^W(z)=z/W(z) does not apply for z=0 because you are dividing both sides of W(z)e^W(z)=z by zero (because W(0)=0). The expression 1/[e^W(0)*(1+W(0))] is defined and equal to 1.
    You can also see from the graph that it really does have a derivative at 0.

    The singularity at z = 0 is removable; lim W'(z) -> 1 as z -> 0 (which shows in the graph).

    I do not think that the point z=0 is a point of singularity. Note that at z=0, W(z)=0.
    Hence, the term W(z)/z --> 0/0 and the derivative is not actually going towards infinity (as clear from the graph of W(z)).
    In fact W'(z) @ z=1 is 1.

  • @norbi275275

    Yo, i know i'm late but we could also do it like this, arguably easier:
    1. y = xe^x => x = ln(y/x) = W(y)
    2. dW(y)/dy = 1/dy/dx = 1/(xe^x + e^x) = 1/e^x(x+1) = 1/e^W(y)(W(y)+1) = 1/(y/W(y))(W(y)+1) = W(y)/y(W(y)+1)
    variable is a dummy one so it doesn't really matter

  • @treyforest2466
    @treyforest2466 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I understand algebraically why the derivative doesn’t exist at z=0, and looking at the lower branch of the graph of W(z) I can see that the slope approaches -inf as z approaches zero. But the upper branch has no discontinuity at zero whatsoever. If I just wanted to consider the upper branch of W(z) as its own function, would the singularity of the derivative at z=0 disappear?

  • @Kishibe84
    @Kishibe84 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Isn't W(z) differentiable at z=0, at least for the main branch?
    I guess that the substitution e^W(z)=z/W(z) implicitly added it in the last step.
    The graph shows that is valid for the second branch, that is not defined for z=0

    Hmmm.. alright. Let w(x)=y, therefore ye^y=x, 1/(y+1)e^y = w'(x). Didn't I also comment this on another video with integral(w)? Lol. I guess we get 1/(x+x/w(x)) = (w/(w+1))/x = (1-1/(w+1))/x, to minimize how many w functions while simplifying.

  • @martinepstein9826
    @martinepstein9826 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Derivative at 0 is 1! Although W(z)/(z(1 + W(z)) is undefined at z = 0 the limit is perfectly well defined, and derivatives are defined as limits.

    • @martinepstein9826
      @martinepstein9826 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We can show that the limit is 1 like this:
      Let x = u*e^u
      W'(x) = lim_(x -> 0) W(x)/x = lim_(u -> 0) W(u*e^u)/(u*e^u)
      = lim_(u -> 0) u/(u*e^u) = lim_(u -> 0) 1/(e^u) = 1

  • @nicholasthesilly

      Wild guess using grandpa l'Hôpital's rule: lim z->0 W(z)/z(1+W(z)) = lim z->0 W'(z) / W'(z)(1+W(z)) = 1 as W(0)=0.

    • @Bl00drav3nz
      @Bl00drav3nz 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Never mind I made an error in the denominator's derivative, so the W'(z) doesnt cancel...

    • @helloitsme7553
      @helloitsme7553 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      W(0)=0 so the derivative becomes a 0/0 situation. Pretty weird! The derivative isn't defined but the coordinate is. Only the limit as z goes to 0 of W(z) is defined.

    • @helloitsme7553
      @helloitsme7553 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      We have to use our 1/e^W(z)(1+W(z)) which will become 1 when plugging in z=0. So W'(0)=1

    • @helloitsme7553
      @helloitsme7553 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ah wait! So the W(z)/(z(1+W(z)) is a wrong simplification, it doesn't have the right domain
