Examples of extremum in the following topics:
-
- In mathematics, the maximum and minimum (plural: maxima and minima) of a function, known collectively as extrema (singular: extremum), are the largest and smallest value that the function takes at a point either within a given neighborhood (local or relative extremum) or on the function domain in its entirety (global or absolute extremum).

- Note that we have to speak of local extrema, because any given local extremum as defined here is not necessarily the highest maximum or lowest minimum in the function’s entire domain.
-
- Where the Lagrange multiplier $\lambda=0$ we can have a local extremum and the two contours cross instead of meeting tangentially.
-
- So if you draw a graph, make sure you draw no more local extremum points than you should.
-
- This function reaches an extremum at $z$.
