Stationary point

In mathematics, particularly in calculus, a stationary point or critical point is a point of the domain of a differentiable function, where the derivative is zero: it is a point where the function "stops" increasing or decreasing.

The stationary points are easy to visualize on the graph of the function: they correspond to the points on the graph where the tangent is parallel to the x-axis. For function of two variables, they correspond to the points on the graph where the tangent plane is parallel to the xy plane.
