Then $$E[|X|] \leq M$$ Is this statement true? And how can I p...
H: Proof of Euler's Theorem using Lagrange Theorem : If $a,n \in \mathbb{N}$, $\gcd(a,n) = 1$ then $a^{\phi (n)} \equiv 1 \pmod n$ I am going through the proof that uses Lagrange's theorem In the proof, we use the fact that if $G$ (s.t. $o(G) < \infty$) is a group and $a \in G$, then $a^{o(G)} = e$. The proof of this ...
H: Function representing a Taylor Series Find a function represented by the Taylor series $\sum_{k=0}^{\inf}\left(-1\right)^{k}\left(\frac{3^{2k+1}}{\left(2k+1\right)!}\right)x^{2k}$. After taking a bunch of derivatives, I figured out $f^n(x)=\frac{3^{2n+1}}{2n+1}$, which further simplified to $\frac{3(3x)^2k}{(2k+1...

H: Upper bound for the sum of the nth powers of a digit I am doing Project Euler # $30$. I currently want to find all the numbers that can be written as the sum of fifth powers of their digits. I solved this using a generic upper bound of a million. However, this isn't very precise and so I want to find out an upper b...
H: Cayley-Hamilton-Theorem - Possible characteristic polynomial Let $A: \mathbb{R}^3 \to \mathbb{R}^3$ s.t. $A^3-2A^2+A= 0$ The Cayley-Hamilton-Thm. states that if I put $A$ into its characteristic polynomial it'll equal $0$. But am I allowed to conclude from the given equation $A^3-2A^2+A= 0$ that $\lambda^3-2 \lambd...
H: Difference between $S^{1}$ and $\mathbb{S}^{1}$ Whats the difference between the two? Or are they both the unit circle? My lecture notes for a topology course use $S^{1}$ for the "circle" in one example and $\mathbb{S}^{1}$ in the next example for the "boundary circle". Is it just a notational inconsistency? EDIT: ...
H: Inclusion-Exclusion Permutations Taken from finals on discrete mathematics; How many permutations of the set $\{a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j\}$ are there such that: a) Each of the patterns ab, de, gh and ij appears b) None of the patterns ab, de, gh and ij appears c) At least one of the patterns ab, de and gh appears. d) Ex...
H: Derivative of the complex norm as commonly used in physics On the one hand, I read that the derivative of the complex conjugate $C[z]=\overline{z}$ is not differentiable anywhere (for instance see here). (see 1, below) On the other hand, I see in physics taking the derivative of a complex scalar field to obtain the...
H: Question on a problem regarding improper integral I'm studying improper integrals with Paul's Online Notes as a reference. Sorry if I'm quoting it here, but the website has the following problem: Determine if the following integral is convergent or divergent. If it is convergent find its value. $$\int_{-2}^{3} \fr...
H: Prime numbers equation Could you please help me for this proof : Prove that there is no triplet of integers (x, y, z) prime to each other such that: $$x²+y² = 3z²$$ I tried to make a proof by contradiction... AI: RHS is divisible by $3$. If either $x$ or $y$ are $1$ or $-1$ modulo $3$ then $3$ will not divide the L...
H: Could this integral be estimated with a positive constant? Let $\Omega$ be an opend bounded subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and let $p, q$ be two real numbers such that $p, q\geq 1$.

H: Why is there a hierarchy of interest between associativity and commutativity In mathematical structures, there are among other things : groups. Among their particular properties of the group, the groups have the property of associativity. Within the various groups, there are commutative (abelian) and non commutativ...
H: The antiderivative of $\sum_{n\gt 0}\frac{x}{n(x+n)}$ I tried to calculate $\int\sum_{n\gt 0}\frac{x}{n(x+n)}\, \mathrm dx$: $$\begin{align}\int\sum_{n\gt 0}\frac{x}{n(x+n)}&=\sum_{n\gt 0}\frac{1}{n}\int\left(1-\frac{n}{x+n}\right)\, \mathrm dx \\&=\sum_{n\gt 0}\left(\frac{1}{n}\int\mathrm dx -\int \frac{\mathrm dx...

H: Area of a rectangle using congruency I don't understand the lecturer, solving the question, says that the rectangles are congruent each other, so the result can be obtained by proportioning them to each other. However, AFAIK two quadlaterals are congruent to each other such that sides an interior angles of one quad...
H: What is $\lim\limits_{b\to a}\frac{e^{-\frac{x}{a}}-e^{-\frac{x}{b}}}{a-b}$? I'm trying to evaluate $$\lim\limits_{b\to a}\frac{e^{-\frac{x}{a}}-e^{-\frac{x}{b}}}{a-b}$$ I know that the limit exists. The limit of the numerator and denominator are both zero when $b\to a$, so I tried to apply L'Hospital's Rule for $\...
H: Finding the area between ${y=x^2}$ and ${y=2x+8}$ The two equations are ${y=x^2}$ and ${y=2x+8}$ I got the result ${-64}$ multiple times, but the proper answer seems to be different AI: The answer is supposed to be an area; therefore, it cannot be negative. The intersection points of those two curves are $(-2,4)$ a...
