H: Conditions on a matrix having 1 as eigenvalue
Suppose $A\in\mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$, $m\geq n$, and assume $A (A^TA)^{-1}A^T$ has 1 as an eigenvalue.
Is it possible to say anything about the structure of A?
AI: $P := A(A^\top A)^{-1} A^\top$ is the orthogonal projection onto the column space of $A$. Orthogonal proj... |
H: Changing norm between $\ell^2$ and $\ell^\infty$.
For two finite sets $A$ and $B$, let $x_{i,j}$ be in both $\ell^2(A)$ and $\ell^\infty(B)$. Then is it possible that

\| \|x_{i,j} \|_{\ell^\infty(B)}\|_{\ell^2(A)} = \| \|x_{i,j} \|_{\ell^2(A)}\|_{\ell^\infty(B)}

or inequality

H: Finding angle between two hexagonal planes
I am looking to get angle between two hexagonal planes. I have coordinates of all 12 vertices (2 hexagons). Is there anyway I can find the angle between the planes. And also I have the information about the centers of each hexagonal plane.
You can see the two hexagons, I n... |
H: Quick question about antisymmetric relationship.
Here we go,
It is a really yes or no question.
If aRb is a|b then is this antisymmetric? a, b belongs to integers including 0*
AI: Is it? Consider if $a \mid b$ and $b \mid a$. Can this happen for integers $a,b$ and them not be equal?
Hint: Consider $b=-a$.

H: Perfect Matching on Bipartite Graph
So I was trying to solve this problem
Let $H$ be a bipartite graph with bipartition $A,B$ such that $|A| = |B| = k$. Prove that the graph contains a perfect matching when every vertex has degree of at least $\frac{k}{2}$
And this is what I tried:
We know that each vertex in $A... |

Let $(X_1,X_2,X_3)$ three independent random variables with uniform distribution $[0,1]$.
Let $A=(X_1+X_2<1)$. Find $\mathbb{P}(A)$.

H: Cauchy-Schwarz applied multiple times with difficulty on second application
Below, $a_i$ is a column vector with matching dimension as the square matrix $G$ and $b_{ij}$ is a scalar. I apply CS once over $(i,j)$ to obtain the first inequality but I'd like to apply CS once more to the first term on the right hand si... |
H: Convergence radius of $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(4-x)^n}{\sqrt{n^4+5}}$
Find the convergence radius of $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{(4-x)^n}{\sqrt{n^4+5}}$$
I've recently started self-learning about series, so I'm having a little trouble. Looking at this example, I tried the $n^{th}$-root test:

H: $1999$ Iberoamerican Number theory problem
Let $n$ be an integer greater than 10 such that everyone of its digits belongs to the set $S$=$\{1,3,7,9\}$. Show that $n$ has a prime divisor greater than or equal to 11.
Obviously n cannot have prime divisor 2 or 5 , now I have to show that n cannot equal to number of ... |
H: Logarithm power rule does not provide a complete solution. Have the logarithm rules failed me?
I am solving this question:
$log_3(m-7)^2 = 4$
There are two ways to solve it.
The first way (expand the brackets):
$log_3(m^2 -14m + 49) = 4$
$m^2 - 14m + 49 = 3^4$
$m^2 - 14m - 32 = 0$
$m = 16,-2$
And both of these are ... |
H: Solve $\int_3^4 \frac{\ln \left(x\right)+x}{e^x+x^x}\:dx$
Solve: $$\int_3^4 \frac{\ln \left(x\right)+x}{e^x+x^x}\:dx$$
I am not really sure how to attempt this. Although at first glance I thought it would be quite easy, Symbolab says that there are no steps to solve such an integral. However, WolframAlpha gives t... |
H: Compare two numbers without comparative operators
Is it possible to have a function which compares two numbers without comparative operators so that it returns 1 if they are equal and 0 if they are not? (No <, >, ==, etc.)
e.g.
$f(x, y) = ?$
$f(20, 20) = 1$
$f(15, 20) = 0$
It's possible to get 1 if they are equal -... |

H: The $\pm$ symbol in the square root of fractions, as well as in the quadratic formula
If I had $ \sqrt {a^2}= \frac{1+b}{4c^2}$ and wanted to solve for $a$, an easy thing to do would be to take the square root of both sides, giving $a=\pm\sqrt{\frac{1+b}{4c^2}}$
And then I would proceed to simplify the fraction by ... |
H: Joint probability distribution with dependant domains
Given a joint distribution function with this specific domain:

I'd like to find the expected values of $X,Y$, i'm just unsure about the integral bounds:
$$f_X(x)=\int_0^{1-x}f_{X,Y}(x,y)dy$$
$$f_Y(y)=\int_0^{... |
H: If $\operatorname{lcm}(m, m + k) = \operatorname{lcm}(n, n + k)$, then $m = n$
Let $m, \ n, \ k \in \Bbb N $ be such that $ \operatorname{lcm}[m , m + k] = \operatorname{lcm}[n , n + k],$ then prove that $ m = n.$
Though I wasn't able to proceed much, but here is a sketch of what I tried.

H: Upper bound of a set
A non-empty subset $S ⊆ \mathbb{R}$ is bounded above by $k ∈ \mathbb{R}$ if
$s ≤ k$ for all $s ∈ S$. The number $k$ is called an upper bound for $S$.
Could by this definition we say that $S$ can have the greatest element and that element is the upper bound?
AI: By that definition, if $S$ has a... |
H: $\frac{1}{x^2}\ = (-5+\sqrt{3})$
How can I solve the equation: $$\frac{1}{x^2}\ = (-5+\sqrt{3})$$
I tried this:
$$
x^2\cdot\frac{1}{x^2} = x^2\cdot(-5+\sqrt{3})
$$
$$
1=-5x^2+\sqrt{3}x^2
$$
$$
1= x^2(-5+\sqrt{3})
$$
$$
x^2=\frac{1}{(-5+\sqrt{3})}
$$
$$
x=\pm \sqrt{\frac{1}{-5+\sqrt{3}}}
