In nonstandard analysis , the standard part function is a function from the limited (finite) hyperreal numbers to the real numbers. Briefly, the standard part function "rounds off" a finite hyperreal to the nearest real. It associates to every such hyperreal x {\displaystyle x} , the unique real x 0 {\displaystyle x_{0}} infinitely close to it, i.e. x − x 0 {\displaystyle x-x_{0}} is infinitesimal . As such, it is a mathematical implementation of the historical concept of adequality introduced by Pierre de Fermat , as well as Leibniz 's Transcendental law of homogeneity .

The standard part function is used to define the derivative of a function f .

396-453: The corresponding real number is the standard part of u . The standard part function "st" is not defined by an internal set . There are several ways of explaining this. Perhaps the simplest is that its domain L, which is the collection of limited (i.e. finite) hyperreals, is not an internal set. Namely, since L is bounded (by any infinite hypernatural, for instance), L would have to have a least upper bound if L were internal, but L doesn't have
