Maximum and minimum
Let f be a function.
There is a global or absolute maximum (pl. maxima) of f in x=x0 if f(x0) is the greatest value of f(x). It is a local or relative maximum if it is the greatest value in an interval.
There is a global or absolute minimum (pl. minima) of f in x=x0 if f(x0) is the smallest value of f(x). It is a local or relative minimum if it is the smallest value in an interval.
An extremum (pl. extrema) is a minimum or maximun
