Naturally, I then tried to find other numbers U such that for some integers n and k $$U=\sum_{a=1}^{n}a=\sum_{a=1}^{...
H: How to make inverse to work here? I have this equation: $$\sqrt{5 - x} = 5 - x^2$$ My current approach is - I note that if I will let: $f(x) = \sqrt{5 - x}, g(x) = 5 - x^2$ then I will have $f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x$ Or, in other words, $f(x) = g^{-1}(x)$ (they're inverse) which means that if they intersect, then they...
H: Two circles of different radii are cut out of cardboard... Two circles of different radii are cut out of cardboard. Each circle is subdivided into $200$ equal sectors. On each circle $100$ sectors are painted white and the other $100$ are painted black. The smaller circle is then placed on top of the larger circle,...
H: For a module $M$ over a ring $R$, the class of modules generated by $M$ is closed under direct sums. Let $M$ be a module over a ring $R$, we define $Gen(M)$ as the class of all modules over $R$ which are generated by $M$, that means that if $N \in Gen(M)$ there is an epimorphism $f:M^{(X)} \twoheadrightarrow N$ whe...
H: Bounded linear operator of $\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N})$ which is normal but not self-adjoint My question is : Does there exist a bounded linear operator $T:\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N})\rightarrow\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N})$ which is normal but not self-adjoint? Just to be clear, if $H$ is an Hilbert space, then a bounded linear operato...
H: How to computer $f(\frac{1}{2})$ given $f(f(x)) = x^2 + \frac{1}{4}$? I have observed that $f(f(\frac{1}{2})) = \frac{1}{2}$ and $f(f(f(x))) = f(x^2 + \frac{1}{4})$, and when $x = \frac{1}{2}$, we have $f(\frac{1}{2}^2 + \frac{1}{4}) = f(\frac{1}{2})$. But I don't know how to proceed, or if any of these observation...
H: What is the domain of the function $\ln\left( \sin \frac{x}{x+1}\right )$ I have to calculate the domain of the function $$\ln \left(\sin \frac{x}{x+1}\right).$$ So I have to put $$\sin \frac{x}{x+1}>0 \implies 2k \pi < \frac{x}{x+1} < \pi (1+2k).$$ I should isolate $x$ from this couple of inequalities but I'm afra...
H: Convergence of $s_{n+1}=\sqrt{1+s_n}$ Does the sequence $s_{n+1}=\sqrt{1+s_n}$ always converge, no matter what the initial value of $s_1$ is? Is this sequence always increasing and bounded? I think so, but what's throwing me off is that to find what the sequence converges to, we just solve $s^2=1+s$ to get $s=\frac...
H: Can I Construct Anything (Within Reason) When Building a Proof? I apologize if this is a silly question, but I'm curious about this. Is it acceptable to claim anything (as long as it's logically sound) during construction when building a geometric proof? For example, let's say I have $\triangle$ ABC and $\triangle$...
H: Are the average payoffs in the convex hull? This is an exercise in the Steve Tadelis An Introduction to Game Theory book: (10.12) Folk Theorem Revisited: Consider the infinitely repeated trust game described in Figure 10.1 (a) Draw the convex hull of average payoffs. So, this is pretty easy: The vector of payoffs ...
H: Prove or disprove if bijectivity is kept after set difference with a countable set I ran into some claims of my own while doing an exercise that I would like to be true for my solution to be correct. Are the following true or false, how to prove or disprove it? Let $ \varphi : \mathbb{N} \setminus I \rightarrow \m...
H: Is a field of characteristic zero where -1 is a square algebraically closed? Let $F$ be a field of characteristic zero where $-1$ is a square. Must $F$ be algebraically closed? AI: Unless you give further assumption: no. Consider $F=\Bbb Q(i)$. This is a field extension of $\Bbb Q$ and thus of characteristic $0$ wi...
H: First-order logic equivalence proof I have a question on how to prove $$(\neg \forall x \, P(x)) \rightarrow (\exists x \, \neg P(x)) $$ with a natural deduction proof, where $P$ is a predicate. I especially have problems with what to do about the negation in front of $\forall$. In general, how should I go about th...
H: What does the notation (<,,>)=<,,> mean? I came across notation of (<,,>)=<,,> I'm not sure what "<" mean. Does it mean: \begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix} Which would transform to: \begin{bmatrix}0&1&0\\1&0&0\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix} AI: The "$\langle \, \rangle$" is just the notation for a vector. Though ...
H: Galois group of $f := X^6 - 6 \in \Bbb F_5[X], \Bbb F_7[X]$ In $\Bbb F_5[X]$ What we know We have that $f = X^6 - 1 = (X-1)(X+1)(X^4 + X^2 +1)$, so $Ω^f_{\Bbb F_5} = Ω^{X^4 + X^2 + 1}_{\Bbb F_5}$. Evaluating $f$ in all elements of $\Bbb F_5$ shows there are no other roots of $f$ there. I don't believe that allows u...
H: Why is $\frac{ab}{c}=\frac{a}{c}b$ Simple question. Why is the following true? $$\frac{ab}{c}=\frac{a}{c}b$$ AI: Dividing by $1$ does not change a number, so $b=\frac b1$ When multiplying two fractions, simply multiply the numerators and multiply the denominators. So $$\frac acb=\frac ac\frac b1=\frac{a\times b}{c\...
H: Convergence test for an integral of bounds $0$ to $1$ How to prove that the integral: $\int_{0}^{1} \frac{dx}{2\sqrt{x}(x+1)}$ converges using the convergence test? I know that $\int_{0}^{1} \frac{1}{x^{\alpha}} d x$ converges $\iff \alpha < 1$. But in my case, the denominator does not look like that, and I find it...
H: For graph G and integer k, exist coloring $V\to [k]$ s.t. $(1-1/k)$ of every vertex get different color. For any simple graph $G$ and positive integer $k$, there exists a coloring $c: V(G) \rightarrow[k]$ such that for every vertex $v$ of $G,$ at least $(1-1/k)$-fraction of its neighbors get different colors. I am ...
H: Integrating $ \int\frac{5}{\ 16 + 9\cos^2(x)}\,dx $ I am trying to integrate the following: $$ \int\frac{5}{\ 16 + 9\cos^2(x)}\,dx $$ I have applied the following substitution: $$ x = \tan^{-1}u $$ I have simplified the denominator through using the following trig identity: $$ \cos^{2}x = 1/(1 + \tan^{2}x) $$ $$ 16...
H: How many partitions of $n$ different objects into equinumerous parts are there? How many partitions of $n$ distinct objects are there, given that all parts are equinumerous? (Let us not consider the empty partition and the identity partition.) The cases when $n$ is the unit, or when $n$ is prime, are trivial. In th...
H: In an algebraically closed field, does every nonzero element have n distinct n-th roots? Let $F$ be an algebraically closed field. This certainly implies that every non-zero element $x$ of $F$ has at least one $n$-th root, for each positive integer $n$. Does it in fact imply the condition that every non-zero elemen...
H: Given polynomial $P(x) = x^2 + ax + b$ and that there only exists one $c$ such that $P^2(c) = c$. Calculate the minimum value of $a + b + c$. Given polynomial $P(x) = x^2 + ax + b$. Knowing that there only exists one value of real $c$ such that $P^2(c) = c$, calculate the minimum value of $a + b + c$. Notation: ...
H: Understanding the Big-O of this summation I understand the Big-O for this summation is $O(n^3)$. I tried to break it down algebraically and I seem to be getting $O(n^3):$ SUMMATION: \begin{align} \sum\limits_{i=1}^n i(n-i) &= \sum_{i=1}^n i \cdot \sum_{i=1}^n (n-i)\\ &= \sum_{i=1}^n i \cdot (\sum_{i=1}^n n- \sum_{...
H: Determinig when a Trig function $\cos(\sqrt{x+3})$ is negative So I have this trig. function: $\cos(\sqrt{x+3})$ I want to know when this function will be negative. I know that cos is negative in 2nd and 3rd quadrants but I'm not able to think in terms of quadrants here? I would also like to know the range of this ...
H: Weibel 1.2.7: Existence of exact sequences of complexes. If $C$ is a complex, show that there are exact sequences of complexes: $$ 0 \longrightarrow Z(C) \longrightarrow C \stackrel{d}{\longrightarrow} B(C)[-1] \longrightarrow 0; $$ $$ 0 \longrightarrow H(C) \longrightarrow C / B(C) \stackrel{d}{\longrightarrow} Z...
