As nouns, differential coefficient is a hypernym of curvature; that is, differential coefficient is a word with a broader meaning than curvature:

  • differential coefficient: the result of mathematical differentiation; the instantaneous change of one quantity relative to another; df(x)/dx
Other hypernyms of curvature include derivative, derived function, differential, first derivative.
