H: Confusion over solution to Linear Transformation from P2 to P3 I'm trying to understand the solution to the question below. I warrant I'm probably confused over the notation. In the question (attached below) it says that transformation T(p)[x] = xp(x-3), with standard basis for P2 and P3. I assume you need to break...
H: would n dimensional extreme point of Polytope hiding form all n-1 dimensional coordinate projection? Given a Polytope $X \subset R^n$ and assume we have nonempty extreme point set $P(X)$. We can do have $n$ different $n-1$ coordinate projection (namely hiding one coordinate). We use $h(X, i)$ indicates $i$th coordi...
H: Expected value of coin game You have four coins and I have four coins. We both throw the four and if your four sides equal to mine, I will give you 2 dollar and otherwise you give me 1. Will you do it? I want to calculate the expected value of the game, and I'm not sure why this is wrong. Let X be the probability t...
H: Sum of geometric series when exponent is $2n$, not $n$? I have a probability below which denotes the chance of catching a fish. $$P = \left(\frac{1}{4}\right) + \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^4 + \dots $$ I can find a generalized form of $P$ by ...
H: Probabilty with Combinations concept check When we calculate the probability of a random selection of $3$ students being all boys, from a group of $6$ boys and $4$ girls, then we can just multiply $\mathbb P(\text{1st being boy}) \times \mathbb P(\text{2nd being boy}) \times \mathbb P(\text{3rd being boy})$ i.e. $\...
H: Proof of the change of variables formula without using the Monotone Convergence Theorem I recently encountered the problem Exercise 36 in Tao's An Introduction to Measure Theory. The link of an online version of this problem is here. Now I quote this problem as follows: Exercise 36 (Change of variables formula) Le...
H: Find out the limit of $f(z)=(z-2)\log|z-2|, z\neq 2$ at the point $z_0=2$, or explain why it does not exist. Question: Find out the limit of $f(z)=(z-2)\log|z-2|, z\neq 2$ at the point $z_0=2$, or explain why it does not exist. My approach: Let $z=x+iy$, where $x,y\in\mathbb{R}$. This implies that $f(z)=f(x+iy)=(...
H: Can the range of a linear transformation contains the null space? Let $V$ be a finite vector space, and let $T$ be a linear transformation $T:V\rightarrow V$. If $\operatorname{null}(T)=\operatorname{span}\{\phi\}$, can $\operatorname{ran}(T)$ contains $\phi$, where $\phi$ is not the trivial vector? I know that $\...
H: Bessel processes and Brownian motion In class, we talked about Bessel process as a process which solves the SDE: $$ dB=\frac{n-1}{2B}dt+\sum_{i=1}^n\frac{W_i}{B}dW_i $$ Where $W_1,W_2,...,W_n$ are independent, standard Brownian motions. We then showed that $B=||W||=(\sum_{i=1}^n(W_i)^2)^{1/2}$ solves this equation....
H: $(W_1\cap W_2)^{0}=W_1^0+W_2^0$ If $W_1$ and $W_2$ are subspaces of a finite dimensional vector space $V$, then $$(W_1\cap W_2)^{0}=W_1^0+W_2^0$$. Attempt Suppose $f\in W_1^0+W_2^0$. Then $f=f_1+f_2\in W_1^0+W_2^0$ ,where $f_1\in W_1$ and $f_2\in W_2^0.$ Now for $z\in (W_1\cap W_2)$, $f(z)=(f_1+f_2)(z)=f_1(z)+f_...
H: Can this inductive proof that $\sum_{i=0}^n2^{2i+1}=\frac23(4^n-1)$ be simplified? The general structure of equations I've used for the inductive step for proofs with a summation is something like: We'll prove that $\sum_{i = 0}^{n + 1} (\text{something}) = (\text{closed form expression})$ \begin{align} \sum_{i = 0...
H: What Is Bigger $100^{100}$or $\sqrt{99^{99} \cdot 101^{101}}$ Hello every what is bigger $100^{100}$or $\sqrt{99^{99} \cdot 101^{101}}$? I tried to square up and I got $100^{200}$ or $99^{99} \cdot 101^{101}$ and I don't have an idea how to continue. AI: Taking logarithms, we see that we want to compare $f(100)$ an...
H: I want to show some function as the norm of two vectors. I want to see $[\sin(x-y)]^2$ is rewritten by the square of the norm of the difference of two vectors like following (It is a sample and it's not right). $$ \| (\sin(x) , \cos(x) \sin(x) ) - (\sin(y) , \cos(y) \sin(y) )\| $$ Please tell me how to consider thi...

How can I evaluate this integral $$\int\dfrac{e^{2x}-1}{\sqrt{e^{3x}+e^x} } \mathop{dx}=\;\;?$$ My attempt: I tried using substitution $e^x=\tan\theta$, $e^x\ dx=\sec^2\theta\ d\theta$, $dx=\sec\theta \csc\theta \ d\theta.$ $$\int\dfrac{\tan...
H: Can I get $\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$ integrable when $g(x)\neq0$ for $f(x),g(x)$ is integrable Can I get $\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$ (meaning $\int_{a}^{b}\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}dx$ is convergent)integrable when $g(x)\neq0$ for $f(x),g(x)$ is integrable? When $g(x)\geq C>0$, $\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$ is integrable. But if $g(x)$ is just inf...

H: if $(X,\tau)$ is an $T_1$- space, then every subset of $X$ is a saturated set In an general topology exercise I have to prove that if $(X,\tau)$ is an $T_1$- space, then every subset of $X$ is a saturated set (i.e. it is an intersection of open sets). My approach: Because $(X,\tau)$ is a $T_1$- space, then every s...
H: Prove that $\frac{d^4\phi}{dx^4}=f(x)$ using integration by parts and fundamental theorem A function f is continuous on $[0,∞)$ and $\phi(x) = \frac{1}{3!}\int_0^x(x−t)^3f(t)dt, x ≥ 0$. Show that $\frac{d^4\phi}{dx^4}=f(x),\forall x\geq0$. I can prove this using newton Leibnitz theorem but can't see how to do it by...
H: Show that an operator is continuous Let $X := C^1 [0,1]$ and define $||f|| := |f(0)| + \sup_{0\le t \le 1} |f'(t)|$. Now, consider the operator $T: X \to \mathbb{R}$ defined as $$Tf = \int_0^1 f(t)dt$$ Show that T is continuous. I know this should be proved with the closed graph theorem, but I want to ask if this...
