single-valued function


describes: a function which can have only a single value at each point in space at a given time.   [M1.3, P10.4]

is exemplified: by the wavefunction for a particle, which must be a single-valued function since it relates to the probability of finding the particle at the point.   [M1.3, P10.4]

See multi-valued function.   [M1.3]
