https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georg%20Feigl
Georg Feigl (13 October 1890 – 20 April 1945) was a German mathematician. Life and work Georg Feigl started studying mathematics and physics at the University of Jena in 1909. In 1918, he obtained his doctorate under Paul Koebe. From 1928 he was editor of the Jahrbuch über die Fortschritte der Mathematik ("Yearbook on the progress of mathematics"). In 1935 he became a full professor at the University of Breslau. In 1937—1941, he was an editor of the journal Deutsche Mathematik. Feigl's main areas of work were the foundations of geometry and topology, where he studied fixed point theorems for n-dimensional manifolds. Feigl was one of the initial authors of the Mathematisches Wörterbuch ("Mathematical dictionary"). Because of the impending siege by the Red Army he was forced to leave Breslau in January 1945 with his family and other members of the Mathematical Institute. His wife Maria was distantly related to the lord of the manor of Wechselburg castle and prepared the castle to receive the mathematicians. Feigl brought his previously developed materials for the Mathematisches Wörterbuch and asked his students to further refine it in the castle. They did not have access to books, lecture notes, calculators, or typewriters in the castle. Johann Radon (1887–1956) and Feigl were willing and able to continue lectures started in Breslau for one hour a day at Wechselburg castle, without any documents. Feigl had a severe stomach ailment and died after a few months without medication in Wechselburg. The Mathematisches Wörterbuch did not appear until 1961, when Hermann Ludwig Schmid (1908–1956) and Joseph Naas (1906–1993) published it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G/M/1%20queue
In queueing theory, a discipline within the mathematical theory of probability, the G/M/1 queue represents the queue length in a system where interarrival times have a general (meaning arbitrary) distribution and service times for each job have an exponential distribution. The system is described in Kendall's notation where the G denotes a general distribution, M the exponential distribution for service times and the 1 that the model has a single server. The arrivals of a G/M/1 queue are given by a renewal process. It is an extension of an M/M/1 queue, where this renewal process must specifically be a Poisson process (so that interarrival times have exponential distribution). Models of this type can be solved by considering one of two M/G/1 queue dual systems, one proposed by Ramaswami and one by Bright. Queue size at arrival times Let be a queue with arrival times that have interarrival distribution A. Define the size of the queue immediately before the nth arrival by the process . This is a discrete-time Markov chain with stochastic matrix: where . The Markov chain has a stationary distribution if and only if the traffic intensity is less than 1, in which case the unique such distribution is the geometric distribution with probability of failure, where is the smallest root of the equation . In this case, under the assumption that the queue is first-in first-out (FIFO), a customer's waiting time W is distributed by: Busy period The busy period can be computed by using a duality between the G/M/1 model and M/G/1 queue generated by the Christmas tree transformation. Response time The response time is the amount of time a job spends in the system from the instant of arrival to the time they leave the system. A consistent and asymptotically normal estimator for the mean response time, can be computed as the fixed point of an empirical Laplace transform. References Single queueing nodes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athletics%20abbreviations
The sports under the umbrella of athletics, particularly track and field, use a variety of statistics. In order to report that information efficiently, numerous abbreviations have grown to be common in the sport. Starting in 1948 by Bert Nelson and Cordner Nelson, Track & Field News became the leader in creating and defining abbreviations in this field. These abbreviations have also been adopted by, among others, World Athletics; the world governing body, various domestic governing bodies, the Association of Track and Field Statisticians, the Association of Road Racing Statisticians, the Associated Press, and the individual media outlets who receive their reports. These abbreviations also appear in Wikipedia. Times and marks Almost all races record a time. Evolving since experiments in the 1930s, to their official use at the 1968 Summer Olympics and official acceptance in 1977, fully automatic times have become common. As this evolution has occurred, the rare early times were specified as FAT times. As they are now commonplace, automatic times are now expressed using the hundredths of a second. Hand times (watches operated by human beings) are not regarded as accurate and thus are only accepted to the accuracy of a tenth of a second even when the watch displays greater accuracy. If the mark was set before 1977, a converted time to the tenth was recorded for record purposes, because they did not have a system to compare between the timing methods. Frequently in those cases there is a mark to the 100th retained for that race. Over this period of evolution, some reports show hand times also followed with an "h" or "ht" to distinguish hand times. With two different timing methods came the inevitable desire to compare times. Track and Field News initiated adding .24 to hand times as a conversion factor. Many electronic hand stopwatches display times to the hundredth. Frequently those readings are recorded, but are not accepted as valid (leading to confused results). Some low level meets have even hand timed runners and have switched places according to the time displayed on the stopwatch. All of this is, of course, wrong. Hand times are not accurate enough to be accepted for record purposes for short races. Human reaction time is not perfectly identical between different human beings. Hand times involve human beings reacting, pushing the stopwatch button when they see the smoke or hear the sound of the starting pistol, then reacting (possibly anticipating) the runner crossing the finish line. The proper procedure for converting hand times would be to round any hundredths up to the next higher even tenth of a second and then add the .24 to get a time for comparison purposes only. But many meets displayed the converted marks accurate to the hundredth making the results look like they were taken with fully automatic timing. In these cases, some meets have displayed a 4 or a 0 in the hundredths column for all races. When detected, reports of t
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deligne%E2%80%93Mumford%20stack
In algebraic geometry, a Deligne–Mumford stack is a stack F such that Pierre Deligne and David Mumford introduced this notion in 1969 when they proved that moduli spaces of stable curves of fixed arithmetic genus are proper smooth Deligne–Mumford stacks. If the "étale" is weakened to "smooth", then such a stack is called an algebraic stack (also called an Artin stack, after Michael Artin). An algebraic space is Deligne–Mumford. A key fact about a Deligne–Mumford stack F is that any X in , where B is quasi-compact, has only finitely many automorphisms. A Deligne–Mumford stack admits a presentation by a groupoid; see groupoid scheme. Examples Affine Stacks Deligne–Mumford stacks are typically constructed by taking the stack quotient of some variety where the stabilizers are finite groups. For example, consider the action of the cyclic group on given by Then the stack quotient is an affine smooth Deligne–Mumford stack with a non-trivial stabilizer at the origin. If we wish to think about this as a category fibered in groupoids over then given a scheme the over category is given by Note that we could be slightly more general if we consider the group action on . Weighted Projective Line Non-affine examples come up when taking the stack quotient for weighted projective space/varieties. For example, the space is constructed by the stack quotient where the -action is given by Notice that since this quotient is not from a finite group we have to look for points with stabilizers and their respective stabilizer groups. Then if and only if or and or , respectively, showing that the only stabilizers are finite, hence the stack is Deligne–Mumford. Stacky curve Non-Example One simple non-example of a Deligne–Mumford stack is since this has an infinite stabilizer. Stacks of this form are examples of Artin stacks. References Algebraic geometry

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreligion%20in%20the%20Philippines
In the Philippines, atheists and agnostics are not officially counted in the census of the country, although the Philippine Statistics Authority in 2020 reported that 43,931 Filipinos (or % of the total Philippine population) have no religious affiliation or have answered "none". Since 2011, the non-religious increasingly organized themselves, especially among the youth in the country. There is a stigma attached to being an atheist in the Philippines, and this necessitates many Filipino atheists to communicate with each other via the Internet, for example via the Philippine Atheism, Agnosticism and Secularism, Inc. formerly known as Philippine Atheists and Agnostics Society. Growth The number of atheists has risen consistently since the 1990s, as has the number of people considering it, church attendance, and overall religiously. One in eleven Filipino Catholics consider leaving the Church, only 37% attend church every week, and only 29% consider themselves strongly religious. Overall, anti-Catholic sentiment is a growing trend in the Philippines, with former president Rodrigo Duterte being an outspoken critic of the church for its sex scandals and allegations of corruption. According to both Catholics and Atheists, belief in the Catholic Church is linked to poverty more than it is religious conviction, many go to Church out of desperation and need for hope, and some atheists, such as Miss. M, founder of HAPI, believe that starting secular outreach institutions will help Filipinos shed reliance on the Church and put their future in their own hands. Persecution and discrimination Filipino atheists are often harassed for their disbelief, and according to one atheist it's "how Filipinos think. They view atheists as Satanists".

Geraldine Claudette Darden (born July 22, 1936) is an American mathematician. She was the fourteenth African American woman to earn a Ph.D. in mathematics. Early life and education Darden was born in Nansemond County, Virginia. Darden earned a bachelor's degrees in mathematics in 1957 from the Hampton Institute, a historically black institute, and took a teaching position at S.H. Clarke Junior High School in Portsmouth, Virginia. In the summer of 1958, Darden saw an opportunity for aspiring mathematicians created by the launch of Russian satellite Sputnik and ensuing US interest in mathematics and science a year earlier, and she applied for and received a National Science Foundation grant to attend the Summer Institute in Mathematics held at North Carolina Central University. Here she met Marjorie Lee Browne, the mathematician who directed the institute, who would encourage Darden to go on to graduate school. Darden earned a master's degree in 1960 at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, and a second master's degree in 1965 and Ph.D. in 1967 from Syracuse University. Her dissertation was completed under the supervision of James Reid, "On the Direct Sums of Cyclic Groups". Contributions In addition to teaching, Darden also co-wrote Selected Papers on Pre-calculus, with textbook author Tom Apostol, Gulbank D. Chakerian, and John D. Neff.

Willem Egbert (Wim) Saris (born 8 July 1943) is a Dutch sociologist and Emeritus Professor of Statistics and Methodology, especially known for his work on "Causal modelling in non-experimental research" and measurement errors (for example, MTMM analyses and development of the Survey Quality Predictor (SQP) program). Biography Saris was born in Leiden, South Holland, Netherlands, in 1943. He finished his study of Sociology at the Utrecht University in 1968 and earned his PhD from the University of Amsterdam in 1979. He became full professor in political science, especially the methodology of the social sciences in 1983. Till 2001, he was working at the University of Amsterdam. In 1984, he created the Sociometric Research Foundation in order to improve social science research by the application of statistics. In 1998, he became member of the methodology group that facilitated the creation of the European Social Survey (ESS). As a consequence, he was also member of the Central Coordinating Team of the ESS from 2000 until 2012. In 2001, he moved to Barcelona where he was granted a position as ICREA professor at ESADE. From 2009 to 2012, he was also director of the Research and Expertise Centre for Survey Methodology (RECSM) at the Pompeu Fabra University. He was also one of the founders and first chairman of the European Survey Research Association (ESRA). Academic career Studies Political decision making Over a long period, Saris was involved with Irmtraud Gallhofer in an applied research project studying political decision making on the basis of governmental meeting minutes and notes of advisers. After developing reliable instruments for analysis, the team applied their approach on varied decisions of the Dutch government as well as major decisions in world history, such as decisions concerning the start of the First and Second World War, the Cuban Missile Crisis and the use of the atomic bombs in 1945. The first phase of the study was directed on the argumentation of individual decision makers. In a later phase, the research was extended to the study of collective decision making by the same governmental groups. The result was that the decision makers were making relatively simple arguments with respect to serious and far-reaching outcomes of war and peace. Statistical aspects of structural equation models (SEM) Worried about the testing procedures of structural equation modelling, Saris worked together with Albert Satorra to improve these procedures. They together developed different procedures to evaluate structural equation models. The final product was a procedure for detecting misspecification in these models taking into account the power of the tests. A program (JRule) was developed for these tests by William van der Veld. Improvement of measurement in survey research Application of SEM showed how large the errors were in survey data. Therefore, he directed his research on procedures to improve the measurement instrument su

The Mittag-Leffler distributions are two families of probability distributions on the half-line . They are parametrized by a real or . Both are defined with the Mittag-Leffler function, named after Gösta Mittag-Leffler. The Mittag-Leffler function For any complex whose real part is positive, the series defines an entire function. For , the series converges only on a disc of radius one, but it can be analytically extended to . First family of Mittag-Leffler distributions The first family of Mittag-Leffler distributions is defined by a relation between the Mittag-Leffler function and their cumulative distribution functions. For all , the function is increasing on the real line, converges to in , and . Hence, the function is the cumulative distribution function of a probability measure on the non-negative real numbers. The distribution thus defined, and any of its multiples, is called a Mittag-Leffler distribution of order . All these probability distributions are absolutely continuous. Since is the exponential function, the Mittag-Leffler distribution of order is an exponential distribution. However, for , the Mittag-Leffler distributions are heavy-tailed, with Their Laplace transform is given by: which implies that, for , the expectation is infinite. In addition, these distributions are geometric stable distributions. Parameter estimation procedures can be found here. Second family of Mittag-Leffler distributions The second family of Mittag-Leffler distributions is defined by a relation between the Mittag-Leffler function and their moment-generating functions. For all , a random variable is said to follow a Mittag-Leffler distribution of order if, for some constant , where the convergence stands for all in the complex plane if , and all in a disc of radius if . A Mittag-Leffler distribution of order is an exponential distribution. A Mittag-Leffler distribution of order is the distribution of the absolute value of a normal distribution random variable. A Mittag-Leffler distribution of order is a degenerate distribution. In opposition to the first family of Mittag-Leffler distribution, these distributions are not heavy-tailed. These distributions are commonly found in relation with the local time of Markov processes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bias%E2%80%93variance%20tradeoff
In statistics and machine learning, the bias–variance tradeoff describes the relationship between a model's complexity, the accuracy of its predictions, and how well it can make predictions on previously unseen data that were not used to train the model. In general, as we increase the number of tunable parameters in a model, it becomes more flexible, and can better fit a training data set. It is said to have lower error, or bias. However, for more flexible models, there will tend to be greater variance to the model fit each time we take a set of samples to create a new training data set. It is said that there is greater variance in the model's estimated parameters. The bias–variance dilemma or bias–variance problem is the conflict in trying to simultaneously minimize these two sources of error that prevent supervised learning algorithms from generalizing beyond their training set: The bias error is an error from erroneous assumptions in the learning algorithm. High bias can cause an algorithm to miss the relevant relations between features and target outputs (underfitting). The variance is an error from sensitivity to small fluctuations in the training set. High variance may result from an algorithm modeling the random noise in the training data (overfitting). The bias–variance decomposition is a way of analyzing a learning algorithm's expected generalization error with respect to a particular problem as a sum of three terms, the bias, variance, and a quantity called the irreducible error, resulting from noise in the problem itself. Motivation The bias–variance tradeoff is a central problem in supervised learning. Ideally, one wants to choose a model that both accurately captures the regularities in its training data, but also generalizes well to unseen data. Unfortunately, it is typically impossible to do both simultaneously. High-variance learning methods may be able to represent their training set well but are at risk of overfitting to noisy or unrepresentative training data. In contrast, algorithms with high bias typically produce simpler models that may fail to capture important regularities (i.e. underfit) in the data. It is an often made fallacy to assume that complex models must have high variance; High variance models are 'complex' in some sense, but the reverse needs not be true. In addition, one has to be careful how to define complexity: In particular, the number of parameters used to describe the model is a poor measure of complexity. This is illustrated by an example adapted from: The model has only two parameters () but it can interpolate any number of points by oscillating with a high enough frequency, resulting in both a high bias and high variance. An analogy can be made to the relationship between accuracy and precision. Accuracy is a description of bias and can intuitively be improved by selecting from only local information. Consequently, a sample will appear accurate (i.e. have low bias) under the aforementioned sel

In 2009 he was at the Institute for Advanced Study. Contributions In 1985 he showed with Ramachandran Balasubramanian and Francois Dress that, in the case of the fourth powers of Waring's problem, the least number of fourth powers that is necessary to express any positive integer as a sum of fourth powers is 19. With Henryk Iwaniec, he improved the Kuznetsov trace formula. In 1997, with Effinger and Herman te Riele, he proved the ternary Goldbach conjecture (every odd number greater than 5 is a sum of three prime numbers) under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas%20Craig%20%28mathematician%29
Thomas Craig (1855–1900) was an American mathematician. He was a professor at Johns Hopkins University and a proponent of the methods of differential geometry. Biography Thomas Craig was born December 20, 1855, in Pittston, Pennsylvania. His father Alexander Craig immigrated from Scotland, and worked as an engineer in the mining industry. Thomas Craig first studied civil engineering at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania, where a teacher William J. Bruce was a mentor to him. Thomas took his C.E. degree in 1875. He taught high school in Newton, New Jersey while continuing to study mathematics. He entered into correspondence with Benjamin Peirce and Peter Guthrie Tait. Thomas Craig was one of the prime movers of Johns Hopkins University when it was launched by Daniel Coit Gilman in 1876. Craig and George Bruce Halsted were the first Hopkins Fellows in mathematics. James Joseph Sylvester had been invited to lead a graduate program in mathematics but would only be doing that. Craig was needed to teach differential calculus and integral calculus. The first year there were only fifteen students studying mathematics, but by 1883 there were 35. In 1878 Craig took his Ph.D. degree with a dissertation The Representation of One Surface Upon Another, and Some Points in the theory of the Curvature of Surfaces. He became an instructor at Johns Hopkins that year, but also took up work at the U. S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. In that capacity he produced the text for A Treatise on Projections for workers at the Geodetic Survey. Craig and Simon Newcomb read Leo Königsberger's Theory of Functions also. Thomas married Louise Alford, daughter of General Benjamin Alvord, on May 4, 1880. The couple raised two daughters, Alisa and Ethel. After 1881 Craig was totally committed to Johns Hopkins, particularly anticipating Arthur Cayley's lectures on theta functions when he came over for the Spring semester of 1882. Besides the calculus courses, Craig taught differential equations, elliptic functions, elasticity, partial differential equations, calculus of variations, definite integrals, mechanics, dynamics, hydrodynamics, sound, spherical harmonics, and Bessel functions. When the American Journal of Mathematics was launched in 1877 Craig was tasked with recording expenses, as these were underwritten by Johns Hopkins University. His report at the end of 1882 gave the total just under ten thousand dollars. Thomas Craig died May 8, 1900. With information supplied by Luther P. Eisenhart, Simon Newcomb wrote the notice in the American Journal of Mathematics Works Thomas Craig wrote the following contributions to the American Journal of Mathematics: 1880: AJM 3:114 to 27: Orthomorphic projections of an ellipsoid on a sphere 1881: AJM 4: 297 to 320: On certain metric properties of surfaces 1881: AJM 4:358 to 78: The counter-pedal surface of an ellipsoid 1882: AJM 5:62 to 75: Some elliptic function formula 1882: AJM 5:76 to 8: Note on the counter-pedal surface of an e

Pietro Saporetti (Bagnacavallo, Emilia-Romagna, 1832 – 1893) was an Italian painter. In Bagnacavallo his father was a teacher of Physics and mathematics at the Lyceum. He took his first lesson in Bagnacavallo, under Antonio Moni. In 1851, he went to study painting in Florence. In 1854, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice under Luigi Ferrari, professor of sculpture. In 1855, he returned to Florence, where he painted Christ exorcises a demon. Finally he moved to Rome.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimation%20statistics
Estimation statistics, or simply estimation, is a data analysis framework that uses a combination of effect sizes, confidence intervals, precision planning, and meta-analysis to plan experiments, analyze data and interpret results. It complements hypothesis testing approaches such as null hypothesis significance testing (NHST), by going beyond the question is an effect present or not, and provides information about how large an effect is. Estimation statistics is sometimes referred to as the new statistics. The primary aim of estimation methods is to report an effect size (a point estimate) along with its confidence interval, the latter of which is related to the precision of the estimate. The confidence interval summarizes a range of likely values of the underlying population effect. Proponents of estimation see reporting a P value as an unhelpful distraction from the important business of reporting an effect size with its confidence intervals, and believe that estimation should replace significance testing for data analysis. History Starting in 1929, physicist Raymond Thayer Birge published review papers in which he used weighted-averages methods to calculate estimates of physical constants, a procedure that can be seen as the precursor to modern meta-analysis. In the 1960s, estimation statistics was adopted by the non-physical sciences with the development of the standardized effect size by Jacob Cohen. In the 1970s, modern research synthesis was pioneered by Gene V. Glass with the first systematic review and meta-analysis for psychotherapy. This pioneering work subsequently influenced the adoption of meta-analyses for medical treatments more generally. In the 1980s and 1990s, estimation methods were extended and refined by biostatisticians including Larry Hedges, Michael Borenstein, Doug Altman, Martin Gardner, and many others, with the development of the modern (medical) meta-analysis. Starting in the 1980s, the systematic review, used in conjunction with meta-analysis, became a technique widely used in medical research. There are over 200,000 citations to "meta-analysis" in PubMed. In the 1990s, editor Kenneth Rothman banned the use of p-values from the journal Epidemiology; compliance was high among authors but this did not substantially change their analytical thinking. In the 2010s, Geoff Cumming published a textbook dedicated to estimation statistics, along with software in Excel designed to teach effect-size thinking, primarily to psychologists. Also in the 2010s, estimation methods were increasingly adopted in neuroscience. In 2013, the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association recommended to use estimation in addition to hypothesis testing. Also in 2013, the Uniform Requirements for Manuscripts Submitted to Biomedical Journals document made a similar recommendation: "Avoid relying solely on statistical hypothesis testing, such as P values, which fail to convey important information about effect size."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre%27s%20three-square%20theorem
In mathematics, Legendre's three-square theorem states that a natural number can be represented as the sum of three squares of integers if and only if is not of the form for nonnegative integers and . The first numbers that cannot be expressed as the sum of three squares (i.e. numbers that can be expressed as ) are 7, 15, 23, 28, 31, 39, 47, 55, 60, 63, 71 ... . History Pierre de Fermat gave a criterion for numbers of the form 8a + 1 and 8a + 3 to be sums of a square plus twice another square, but did not provide a proof. N. Beguelin noticed in 1774 that every positive integer which is neither of the form 8n + 7, nor of the form 4n, is the sum of three squares, but did not provide a satisfactory proof. In 1796 Gauss proved his Eureka theorem that every positive integer n is the sum of 3 triangular numbers; this is equivalent to the fact that 8n + 3 is a sum of three squares. In 1797 or 1798 A.-M. Legendre obtained the first proof of his 3 square theorem. In 1813, A. L. Cauchy noted that Legendre's theorem is equivalent to the statement in the introduction above. Previously, in 1801, C. F. Gauss had obtained a more general result, containing Legendre's theorem of 1797–8 as a corollary. In particular, Gauss counted the number of solutions of the expression of an integer as a sum of three squares, and this is a generalisation of yet another result of Legendre, whose proof is incomplete. This last fact appears to be the reason for later incorrect claims according to which Legendre's proof of the three-square theorem was defective and had to be completed by Gauss. With Lagrange's four-square theorem and the two-square theorem of Girard, Fermat and Euler, the Waring's problem for k = 2 is entirely solved. Proofs The "only if" of the theorem is simply because modulo 8, every square is congruent to 0, 1 or 4. There are several proofs of the converse (besides Legendre's proof). One of them is due to J. P. G. L. Dirichlet in 1850, and has become classical. It requires three main lemmas: the quadratic reciprocity law, Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions, and the equivalence class of the trivial ternary quadratic form. Relationship to the four-square theorem This theorem can be used to prove Lagrange's four-square theorem, which states that all natural numbers can be written as a sum of four squares. Gauss pointed out that the four squares theorem follows easily from the fact that any positive integer that is 1 or 2 mod 4 is a sum of 3 squares, because any positive integer not divisible by 4 can be reduced to this form by subtracting 0 or 1 from it. However, proving the three-square theorem is considerably more difficult than a direct proof of the four-square theorem that does not use the three-square theorem. Indeed, the four-square theorem was proved earlier, in 1770.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedrally%20diminished%20dodecahedron
In geometry, a tetrahedrally diminished dodecahedron (also tetrahedrally stellated icosahedron or propello tetrahedron) is a topologically self-dual polyhedron made of 16 vertices, 30 edges, and 16 faces (4 equilateral triangles and 12 identical quadrilaterals). A canonical form exists with two edge lengths at 0.849 : 1.057, assuming that the radius of the midsphere is 1. The kites remain isosceles. It has chiral tetrahedral symmetry, and so its geometry can be constructed from pyritohedral symmetry of the pseudoicosahedron with 4 faces stellated, or from the pyritohedron, with 4 vertices diminished. Within its tetrahedral symmetry, it has geometric varied proportions. By Dorman Luke dual construction, a unique geometric proportion can be defined. The kite faces have edges of length ratio ~ 1:0.633. Topologically, the triangles are always equilateral, while the quadrilaterals are irregular, although the two adjacent edges that meet at the vertices of a tetrahedron are equal. As a self-dual hexadecahedron, it is one of 302404 forms, 1476 with at least order 2 symmetry, and the only one with tetrahedral symmetry. As a diminished regular dodecahedron, with 4 vertices removed, the quadrilaterals faces are trapezoids. As a stellation of the regular icosahedron it is one of 32 stellations defined with tetrahedral symmetry. It has kite faces. In Conway polyhedron notation, it can represented as pT, applying George W. Hart's propeller operator to a regular tetrahedron. Related polytopes and honeycombs This polyhedron represents the vertex figure of a hyperbolic uniform honeycomb, the partially diminished icosahedral honeycomb, pd{3,5,3}, with 12 pentagonal antiprisms and 4 dodecahedron cells meeting at every vertex.

Bedtime Math is a non-profit organization focused on mathematics education for young children, launched by Laura Overdeck in February 2012. History Bedtime Math was founded in February 2012, initially as a website. In March 2014, Bedtime Math launched Crazy 8s, a free nationwide after-school recreational math club. In 2018, researchers at Johns Hopkins University released results of a study that found its Crazy 8s math club significantly reduced children's feelings of math anxiety after eight weeks of participation. The effect was more pronounced among students in the kindergarten through second grade club. In 2019, Bedtime Math created Fun Factor, a new K-5 curriculum developed in consultation with Teachers College, Columbia University. It features dynamic math activities that aligns with standards and address key concepts, paired with teacher professional development. Products Nightly math problem: Bedtime Math's core offering is daily math problems for elementary school-age kids, broadcast by email and posted daily on the website's homepage and Facebook page. Apps: The organization delivers the same daily riddles via a free mobile application for Android and iPhone OS. Books: Overdeck has also published four children's books (100% of her book royalties are donated toward Bedtime Math's programming). Bedtime Math: A Fun Excuse to Stay up Late (Macmillan Children's Publishing Group, June 2013) Bedtime Math: This Time It's Personal (Macmillan Children's Publishing Group, March 2014) Bedtime Math: The Truth Comes Out (Macmillan Children's Publishing Group, March 2015) How Many Guinea Pigs Can Fit on a Plane? (Macmillan Children's Publishing Group, June 2016) Crazy 8s after-school math club: The free program provides a free kit of materials to help host eight sessions of a weekly math club. As of 2019, there were 10,000 schools and libraries across the country who have participated. Fun Factor in-school offering: In contrast to Crazy 8s, Fun Factor activities are standards-aligned for grades K-5 and geared towards small-group differentiated instruction. Summer of Numbers: A summer math incentive program for libraries, in which kids track their daily math using gold star stickers on a calendar. The program, once offered through the Collaborative Summer Library Program, is now exclusively offered by Bedtime Math. Videos: For Math Awareness Month in April 2013, Bedtime Math produced four short math comedies. Reception Bedtime Math has been featured in The New York Times parenting blog, USA Today, and National Public Radio (NPR); its books have been featured on NPR's Science Friday and reviewed in The Wall Street Journal. Time described it as "heartening news for educators who bemoan the state of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) education in the U.S." In 2015, an article in the journal Science reported on a randomized trial that found use of the Bedtime Math iPad app improved performance of first-graders in math at schoo

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith%20space
In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics, a Smith space is a complete compactly generated locally convex topological vector space having a universal compact set, i.e. a compact set which absorbs every other compact set (i.e. for some ). Smith spaces are named after Marianne Ruth Freundlich Smith, who introduced them as duals to Banach spaces in some versions of duality theory for topological vector spaces. All Smith spaces are stereotype and are in the stereotype duality relations with Banach spaces: for any Banach space its stereotype dual space is a Smith space, and vice versa, for any Smith space its stereotype dual space is a Banach space. Smith spaces are special cases of Brauner spaces. Examples As follows from the duality theorems, for any Banach space its stereotype dual space is a Smith space. The polar of the unit ball in is the universal compact set in . If denotes the normed dual space for , and the space endowed with the -weak topology, then the topology of lies between the topology of and the topology of , so there are natural (linear continuous) bijections If is infinite-dimensional, then no two of these topologies coincide. At the same time, for infinite dimensional the space is not barreled (and even is not a Mackey space if is reflexive as a Banach space). If is a convex balanced compact set in a locally convex space , then its linear span possesses a unique structure of a Smith space with as the universal compact set (and with the same topology on ). If is a (Hausdorff) compact topological space, and the Banach space of continuous functions on (with the usual sup-norm), then the stereotype dual space (of Radon measures on with the topology of uniform convergence on compact sets in ) is a Smith space. In the special case when is endowed with a structure of a topological group the space becomes a natural example of a stereotype group algebra. A Banach space is a Smith space if and only if is finite-dimensional. See also Stereotype space Brauner space Notes References Functional analysis Topological vector spaces

In the area of mathematics known as Ramsey theory, a Ramsey class is one which satisfies a generalization of Ramsey's theorem. Suppose , and are structures and is a positive integer. We denote by the set of all subobjects of which are isomorphic to . We further denote by the property that for all partitions of there exists a and an such that . Suppose is a class of structures closed under isomorphism and substructures. We say the class has the A-Ramsey property if for ever positive integer and for every there is a such that holds. If has the -Ramsey property for all then we say is a Ramsey class. Ramsey's theorem is equivalent to the statement that the class of all finite sets is a Ramsey class. References Ramsey theory
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integration%20along%20fibers
In differential geometry, the integration along fibers of a k-form yields a -form where m is the dimension of the fiber, via "integration". It is also called the fiber integration. Definition Let be a fiber bundle over a manifold with compact oriented fibers. If is a k-form on E, then for tangent vectors wi's at b, let where is the induced top-form on the fiber ; i.e., an -form given by: with lifts of to , (To see is smooth, work it out in coordinates; cf. an example below.) Then is a linear map . By Stokes' formula, if the fibers have no boundaries(i.e. ), the map descends to de Rham cohomology: This is also called the fiber integration. Now, suppose is a sphere bundle; i.e., the typical fiber is a sphere. Then there is an exact sequence , K the kernel, which leads to a long exact sequence, dropping the coefficient and using : , called the Gysin sequence. Example Let be an obvious projection. First assume with coordinates and consider a k-form: Then, at each point in M, From this local calculation, the next formula follows easily (see Poincaré_lemma#Direct_proof): if is any k-form on where is the restriction of to . As an application of this formula, let be a smooth map (thought of as a homotopy). Then the composition is a homotopy operator (also called a chain homotopy): which implies induce the same map on cohomology, the fact known as the homotopy invariance of de Rham cohomology. As a corollary, for example, let U be an open ball in Rn with center at the origin and let . Then , the fact known as the Poincaré lemma. Projection formula Given a vector bundle π : E → B over a manifold, we say a differential form α on E has vertical-compact support if the restriction has compact support for each b in B. We write for the vector space of differential forms on E with vertical-compact support. If E is oriented as a vector bundle, exactly as before, we can define the integration along the fiber: The following is known as the projection formula. We make a right -module by setting . Proof: 1. Since the assertion is local, we can assume π is trivial: i.e., is a projection. Let be the coordinates on the fiber. If , then, since is a ring homomorphism, Similarly, both sides are zero if α does not contain dt. The proof of 2. is similar.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segal%E2%80%93Bargmann%20space
In mathematics, the Segal–Bargmann space (for Irving Segal and Valentine Bargmann), also known as the Bargmann space or Bargmann–Fock space, is the space of holomorphic functions F in n complex variables satisfying the square-integrability condition: where here dz denotes the 2n-dimensional Lebesgue measure on It is a Hilbert space with respect to the associated inner product: The space was introduced in the mathematical physics literature separately by Bargmann and Segal in the early 1960s; see and . Basic information about the material in this section may be found in and . Segal worked from the beginning in the infinite-dimensional setting; see and Section 10 of for more information on this aspect of the subject. Properties A basic property of this space is that pointwise evaluation is continuous, meaning that for each there is a constant C such that It then follows from the Riesz representation theorem that there exists a unique Fa in the Segal–Bargmann space such that The function Fa may be computed explicitly as where, explicitly, The function Fa is called the coherent state (applied in mathematical physics) with parameter a, and the function is known as the reproducing kernel for the Segal–Bargmann space. Note that meaning that integration against the reproducing kernel simply gives back (i.e., reproduces) the function F, provided, of course that F is an element of the space (and in particular is holomorphic). Note that It follows from the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality that elements of the Segal–Bargmann space satisfy the pointwise bounds Quantum mechanical interpretation One may interpret a unit vector in the Segal–Bargmann space as the wave function for a quantum particle moving in In this view, plays the role of the classical phase space, whereas is the configuration space. The restriction that F be holomorphic is essential to this interpretation; if F were an arbitrary square-integrable function, it could be localized into an arbitrarily small region of the phase space, which would go against the uncertainty principle. Since, however, F is required to be holomorphic, it satisfies the pointwise bounds described above, which provides a limit on how concentrated F can be in any region of phase space. Given a unit vector F in the Segal–Bargmann space, the quantity may be interpreted as a sort of phase space probability density for the particle. Since the above quantity is manifestly non-negative, it cannot coincide with the Wigner function of the particle, which usually has some negative values. In fact, the above density coincides with the Husimi function of the particle, which is obtained from the Wigner function by smearing with a Gaussian. This connection will be made more precise below, after we introduce the Segal–Bargmann transform. The canonical commutation relations One may introduce annihilation operators and creation operators on the Segal–Bargmann space by setting and These operators satisfy the
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial%20subgroup
In the mathematical field of group theory, a subgroup H of a given group G is a serial subgroup of G if there is a chain C of subgroups of G extending from H to G such that for consecutive subgroups X and Y in C, X is a normal subgroup of Y. The relation is written H ser G or H is serial in G. If the chain is finite between H and G, then H is a subnormal subgroup of G. Then every subnormal subgroup of G is serial. If the chain C is well-ordered and ascending, then H is an ascendant subgroup of G; if descending, then H is a descendant subgroup of G. If G is a locally finite group, then the set of all serial subgroups of G form a complete sublattice in the lattice of all normal subgroups of G.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagplot
A bagplot, or starburst plot, is a method in robust statistics for visualizing two- or three-dimensional statistical data, analogous to the one-dimensional box plot. Introduced in 1999 by Rousseuw et al., the bagplot allows one to visualize the location, spread, skewness, and outliers of a data set. Construction The bagplot consists of three nested polygons, called the "bag", the "fence", and the "loop". The inner polygon, called the bag, is constructed on the basis of Tukey depth, the smallest number of observations that can be contained by a half-plane that also contains a given point. It contains at most 50% of the data points The outermost of the three polygons, called the fence is not drawn as part of the bagplot, but is used to construct it. It is formed by inflating the bag by a certain factor (usually 3). Observations outside the fence are flagged as outliers. The observations that are not marked as outliers are surrounded by a loop, the convex hull of the observations within the fence. An asterisk symbol (*) near the center of the graph is used to mark the depth median, the point with the highest possible Tukey depth. The observations between the bag and fence are marked by line segments, on a line to the depth median, connecting them to the bag. The three-dimensional version consists of an inner and outer bag. The outer bag must be drawn in transparent colors so that the inner bag remains visible. Properties The bagplot is invariant under affine transformations of the plane, and robust against outliers.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal%20distribution
In probability theory and statistics, the trapezoidal distribution is a continuous probability distribution whose probability density function graph resembles a trapezoid. Likewise, trapezoidal distributions also roughly resemble mesas or plateaus. Each trapezoidal distribution has a lower bound and an upper bound , where , beyond which no values or events on the distribution can occur (i.e. beyond which the probability is always zero). In addition, there are two sharp bending points (non-differentiable discontinuities) within the probability distribution, which we will call and , which occur between and , such that . The image to the right shows a perfectly linear trapezoidal distribution. However, not all trapezoidal distributions are so precisely shaped. In the standard case, where the middle part of the trapezoid is completely flat, and the side ramps are perfectly linear, all of the values between and will occur with equal frequency, and therefore all such points will be modes (local frequency maxima) of the distribution. On the other hand, though, if the middle part of the trapezoid is not completely flat, or if one or both of the side ramps are not perfectly linear, then the trapezoidal distribution in question is a generalized trapezoidal distribution, and more complicated and context-dependent rules may apply. The side ramps of a trapezoidal distribution are not required to be symmetric in the general case, just as the sides of trapezoids in geometry are not required to be symmetric. The non-central moments of the trapezoidal distribution are Special cases of the trapezoidal distribution include the uniform distribution (with and ) and the triangular distribution (with ). Trapezoidal probability distributions seem to not be discussed very often in the literature. The uniform, triangular, Irwin-Hall, Bates, Poisson, normal, bimodal, and multimodal distributions are all more frequently discussed in the literature. This may be because these other (non-trapezoidal) distributions seem to occur more frequently in nature than the trapezoidal distribution does. The normal distribution in particular is especially common in nature, just as one would expect from the central limit theorem.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferdinand%20Rudio
Ferdinand Rudio (born 2 August 1856 in Wiesbaden, died 21 June 1929 in Zurich) was a German and Swiss mathematician and historian of mathematics. Education and career Rudio's father and maternal grandfather were both public officials in the independent Duchy of Nassau, which was annexed by Prussia when Rudio was 10. He was educated at the local gymnasium and Realgymnasium in Wiesbaden, and then in 1874 began studying at ETH Zurich, then known as the Eidgenössische Polytechnikum Zürich. His initial courses in Zurich were in civil engineering, but in his second year (under the influence of Karl Geiser) he switched to mathematics and physics. Finishing at Zurich in 1877, he went on to graduate studies at the University of Berlin from 1877 to 1880, earning his Ph.D. under the joint supervision of Ernst Kummer and Karl Weierstrass. Next, Rudio returned to ETH Zurich, earning his habilitation in 1881 and becoming at that time a privatdozent. He became an extraordinary professor at Zurich in 1885, and a full professor in 1889. Rudio was one of the organizers of the first International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) in 1897. He served as General Secretary of the congress, and as editor of the proceedings of the congress. He was the editor of the quarterly journal of the Zürich Natural Sciences Society from 1893 until 1912, and was also president of the society. In 1919, the University of Zurich gave Rudio an honorary doctorate. By 1928, he was in poor health, and retired from his position at Zurich. He died a year later. Contributions Rudio's research ranged over group theory, abstract algebra, and geometry. His thesis research concerned the use of differential equations to characterize surface by the properties of their sets of centers of curvature, and he was also known for the first proof of convergence of Viète's infinite product for π. He also authored the textbook Die Elemente Der Analytischen Geometrie, in analytic geometry, published in 1908. Beginning in 1883, with a speech Rudio gave at a celebration of the centennial of Leonhard Euler's death, Rudio became interested in Euler's life and works. At the first ICM and again at a celebration in 1907 of Euler's 200th birthday, Rudio urged the compilation of a set of Euler's complete works. In 1909 the Swiss Society of Natural Sciences took up the project and appointed Rudio as editor. He finished two volumes of this project, and assisted in the editing of the next three. He gave a talk Mitteilungen über die Eulerausgabe (news about the Euler edition) at the fifth ICM in Cambridge, England in August 1912. By the time he retired as general editor of the series in 1928, 20 volumes of the series had been published of what would eventually be over 80 volumes. Other work in the history of mathematics by Rudio included the book Der Bericht des Simplicius über die Quadraturen des Antiphon und des Hippokrates (1902) on the ancient problem of squaring the circle, and a collection of biographies of mat

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point%20process%20notation
In probability and statistics, point process notation comprises the range of mathematical notation used to symbolically represent random objects known as point processes, which are used in related fields such as stochastic geometry, spatial statistics and continuum percolation theory and frequently serve as mathematical models of random phenomena, representable as points, in time, space or both. The notation varies due to the histories of certain mathematical fields and the different interpretations of point processes, and borrows notation from mathematical areas of study such as measure theory and set theory. Interpretation of point processes The notation, as well as the terminology, of point processes depends on their setting and interpretation as mathematical objects which under certain assumptions can be interpreted as random sequences of points, random sets of points or random counting measures. Random sequences of points In some mathematical frameworks, a given point process may be considered as a sequence of points with each point randomly positioned in d-dimensional Euclidean space Rd as well as some other more abstract mathematical spaces. In general, whether or not a random sequence is equivalent to the other interpretations of a point process depends on the underlying mathematical space, but this holds true for the setting of finite-dimensional Euclidean space Rd. Random set of points A point process is called simple if no two (or more points) coincide in location with probability one. Given that often point processes are simple and the order of the points does not matter, a collection of random points can be considered as a random set of points The theory of random sets was independently developed by David Kendall and Georges Matheron. In terms of being considered as a random set, a sequence of random points is a random closed set if the sequence has no accumulation points with probability one A point process is often denoted by a single letter, for example , and if the point process is considered as a random set, then the corresponding notation: is used to denote that a random point is an element of (or belongs to) the point process . The theory of random sets can be applied to point processes owing to this interpretation, which alongside the random sequence interpretation has resulted in a point process being written as: which highlights its interpretation as either a random sequence or random closed set of points. Furthermore, sometimes an uppercase letter denotes the point process, while a lowercase denotes a point from the process, so, for example, the point (or ) belongs to or is a point of the point process , or with set notation, . Random measures To denote the number of points of located in some Borel set , it is sometimes written where is a random variable and is a counting measure, which gives the number of points in some set. In this mathematical expression the point process is denoted by: . On
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One%20in%20ten%20rule
In statistics, the one in ten rule is a rule of thumb for how many predictor parameters can be estimated from data when doing regression analysis (in particular proportional hazards models in survival analysis and logistic regression) while keeping the risk of overfitting and finding spurious correlations low. The rule states that one predictive variable can be studied for every ten events. For logistic regression the number of events is given by the size of the smallest of the outcome categories, and for survival analysis it is given by the number of uncensored events. For example, if a sample of 200 patients is studied and 20 patients die during the study (so that 180 patients survive), the one in ten rule implies that two pre-specified predictors can reliably be fitted to the total data. Similarly, if 100 patients die during the study (so that 100 patients survive), ten pre-specified predictors can be fitted reliably. If more are fitted, the rule implies that overfitting is likely and the results will not predict well outside the training data. It is not uncommon to see the 1:10 rule violated in fields with many variables (e.g. gene expression studies in cancer), decreasing the confidence in reported findings. Improvements A "one in 20 rule" has been suggested, indicating the need for shrinkage of regression coefficients, and a "one in 50 rule" for stepwise selection with the default p-value of 5%. Other studies, however, show that the one in ten rule may be too conservative as a general recommendation and that five to nine events per predictor can be enough, depending on the research question. More recently, a study has shown that the ratio of events per predictive variable is not a reliable statistic for estimating the minimum number of events for estimating a logistic prediction model. Instead, the number of predictor variables, the total sample size (events + non-events) and the events fraction (events / total sample size) can be used to calculate the expected prediction error of the model that is to be developed. One can then estimate the required sample size to achieve an expected prediction error that is smaller than a predetermined allowable prediction error value. Alternatively, three requirements for prediction model estimation have been suggested: the model should have a global shrinkage factor of ≥ .9, an absolute difference of ≤ .05 in the model's apparent and adjusted Nagelkerke R2, and a precise estimation of the overall risk or rate in the target population. The necessary sample size and number of events for model development are then given by the values that meet these requirements. Literature David A.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point%20process%20operation
In probability and statistics, a point process operation or point process transformation is a type of mathematical operation performed on a random object known as a point process, which are often used as mathematical models of phenomena that can be represented as points randomly located in space. These operations can be purely random, deterministic or both, and are used to construct new point processes, which can be then also used as mathematical models. The operations may include removing or thinning points from a point process, combining or superimposing multiple point processes into one point process or transforming the underlying space of the point process into another space. Point process operations and the resulting point processes are used in the theory of point processes and related fields such as stochastic geometry and spatial statistics. One point process that gives particularly convenient results under random point process operations is the Poisson point process, The Poisson point process often exhibits a type of mathematical closure such that when a point process operation is applied to some Poisson point process, then provided some conditions on the point process operation, the resulting process will be often another Poisson point process operation, hence it is often used as a mathematical model. Point process operations have been studied in the mathematical limit as the number of random point process operations applied approaches infinity. This had led to convergence theorems of point process operations, which have their origins in the pioneering work of Conny Palm in 1940s and later Aleksandr Khinchin in the 1950s and 1960s who both studied point processes on the real line, in the context of studying the arrival of phone calls and queueing theory in general. Provided that the original point process and the point process operation meet certain mathematical conditions, then as point process operations are applied to the process, then often the resulting point process will behave stochastically more like a Poisson point process if it has a non-random mean measure, which gives the average number of points of the point process located in some region. In other words, in the limit as the number of operations applied approaches infinity, the point process will converge in distribution (or weakly) to a Poisson point process or, if its measure is a random measure, to a Cox point process. Convergence results, such as the Palm-Khinchin theorem for renewal processes, are then also used to justify the use of the Poisson point process as a mathematical of various phenomena. Point process notation Point processes are mathematical objects that can be used to represent collections of points randomly scattered on some underlying mathematical space. They have a number of interpretations, which is reflected by the various types of point process notation. For example, if a point belongs to or is a member of a point process, denoted by , then t

In algebraic topology, the homotopy excision theorem offers a substitute for the absence of excision in homotopy theory. More precisely, let be an excisive triad with nonempty, and suppose the pair is ()-connected, , and the pair is ()-connected, . Then the map induced by the inclusion , , is bijective for and is surjective for . A geometric proof is given in a book by Tammo tom Dieck. This result should also be seen as a consequence of the most general form of the Blakers–Massey theorem, which deals with the non-simply-connected case. The most important consequence is the Freudenthal suspension theorem. References Bibliography J. Peter May, A Concise Course in Algebraic Topology, Chicago University Press.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex-oriented%20cohomology%20theory
In algebraic topology, a complex-orientable cohomology theory is a multiplicative cohomology theory E such that the restriction map is surjective. An element of that restricts to the canonical generator of the reduced theory is called a complex orientation. The notion is central to Quillen's work relating cohomology to formal group laws. If E is an even-graded theory meaning , then E is complex-orientable. This follows from the Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence. Examples: An ordinary cohomology with any coefficient ring R is complex orientable, as . Complex K-theory, denoted KU, is complex-orientable, as it is even-graded. (Bott periodicity theorem) Complex cobordism, whose spectrum is denoted by MU, is complex-orientable. A complex orientation, call it t, gives rise to a formal group law as follows: let m be the multiplication where denotes a line passing through x in the underlying vector space of . This is the map classifying the tensor product of the universal line bundle over . Viewing , let be the pullback of t along m. It lives in and one can show, using properties of the tensor product of line bundles, it is a formal group law (e.g., satisfies associativity). See also Chromatic homotopy theory References M.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homotopy%20colimit%20and%20limit
In mathematics, especially in algebraic topology, the homotopy limit and colimitpg 52 are variants of the notions of limit and colimit extended to the homotopy category . The main idea is this: if we have a diagramconsidered as an object in the homotopy category of diagrams , (where the homotopy equivalence of diagrams is considered pointwise), then the homotopy limit and colimits then correspond to the cone and coconewhich are objects in the homotopy category , where is the category with one object and one morphism. Note this category is equivalent to the standard homotopy category since the latter homotopy functor category has functors which picks out an object in and a natural transformation corresponds to a continuous function of topological spaces. Note this construction can be generalized to model categories, which give techniques for constructing homotopy limits and colimits in terms of other homotopy categories, such as derived categories. Another perspective formalizing these kinds of constructions are derivatorspg 193 which are a new framework for homotopical algebra. Introductory examples Homotopy pushout The concept of homotopy colimitpg 4-8 is a generalization of homotopy pushouts, such as the mapping cylinder used to define a cofibration. This notion is motivated by the following observation: the (ordinary) pushout is the space obtained by contracting the n-1-sphere (which is the boundary of the n-dimensional disk) to a single point. This space is homeomorphic to the n-sphere Sn. On the other hand, the pushout is a point. Therefore, even though the (contractible) disk Dn was replaced by a point, (which is homotopy equivalent to the disk), the two pushouts are not homotopy (or weakly) equivalent. Therefore, the pushout is not well-aligned with a principle of homotopy theory, which considers weakly equivalent spaces as carrying the same information: if one (or more) of the spaces used to form the pushout is replaced by a weakly equivalent space, the pushout is not guaranteed to stay weakly equivalent. The homotopy pushout rectifies this defect. The homotopy pushout of two maps of topological spaces is defined as , i.e., instead of glueing B in both A and C, two copies of a cylinder on B are glued together and their ends are glued to A and C. For example, the homotopy colimit of the diagram (whose maps are projections) is the join . It can be shown that the homotopy pushout does not share the defect of the ordinary pushout: replacing A, B and / or C by a homotopic space, the homotopy pushout will also be homotopic. In this sense, the homotopy pushouts treats homotopic spaces as well as the (ordinary) pushout does with homeomorphic spaces. Composition of maps Another useful and motivating examples of a homotopy colimit is constructing models for the homotopy colimit of the diagramof topological spaces. There are a number of ways to model this colimit: the first is to consider the spacewhere is the equivalence relation
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bousfield%20localization
In category theory, a branch of mathematics, a (left) Bousfield localization of a model category replaces the model structure with another model structure with the same cofibrations but with more weak equivalences. Bousfield localization is named after Aldridge Bousfield, who first introduced this technique in the context of localization of topological spaces and spectra. Model category structure of the Bousfield localization Given a class C of morphisms in a model category M the left Bousfield localization is a new model structure on the same category as before. Its equivalences, cofibrations and fibrations, respectively, are the C-local equivalences the original cofibrations of M and (necessarily, since cofibrations and weak equivalences determine the fibrations) the maps having the right lifting property with respect to the cofibrations in M which are also C-local equivalences. In this definition, a C-local equivalence is a map which, roughly speaking, does not make a difference when mapping to a C-local object. More precisely, is required to be a weak equivalence (of simplicial sets) for any C-local object W. An object W is called C-local if it is fibrant (in M) and is a weak equivalence for all maps in C. The notation is, for a general model category (not necessarily enriched over simplicial sets) a certain simplicial set whose set of path components agrees with morphisms in the homotopy category of M: If M is a simplicial model category (such as, say, simplicial sets or topological spaces), then "map" above can be taken to be the derived simplicial mapping space of M. This description does not make any claim about the existence of this model structure, for which see below. Dually, there is a notion of right Bousfield localization, whose definition is obtained by replacing cofibrations by fibrations (and reversing directions of all arrows). Existence The left Bousfield localization model structure, as described above, is known to exist in various situations, provided that C is a set: M is left proper (i.e., the pushout of a weak equivalence along a cofibration is again a weak equivalence) and combinatorial M is left proper and cellular. Combinatoriality and cellularity of a model category guarantee, in particular, a strong control over the cofibrations of M. Similarly, the right Bousfield localization exists if M is right proper and cellular or combinatorial and C is a set. Universal property The localization of an (ordinary) category C with respect to a class W of morphisms satisfies the following universal property: There is a functor which sends all morphisms in W to isomorphisms. Any functor that sends W to isomorphisms in D factors uniquely over the previously mentioned functor. The Bousfield localization is the appropriate analogous notion for model categories, keeping in mind that isomorphisms in ordinary category theory are replaced by weak equivalences. That is, the (left) Bousfield localization is such tha

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derived%20scheme
In algebraic geometry, a derived scheme is a pair consisting of a topological space X and a sheaf either of simplicial commutative rings or of commutative ring spectra on X such that (1) the pair is a scheme and (2) is a quasi-coherent -module. The notion gives a homotopy-theoretic generalization of a scheme. A derived stack is a stacky generalization of a derived scheme. Differential graded scheme Over a field of characteristic zero, the theory is closely related to that of a differential graded scheme. By definition, a differential graded scheme is obtained by gluing affine differential graded schemes, with respect to étale topology. It was introduced by Maxim Kontsevich "as the first approach to derived algebraic geometry." and was developed further by Mikhail Kapranov and Ionut Ciocan-Fontanine. Connection with differential graded rings and examples Just as affine algebraic geometry is equivalent (in categorical sense) to the theory of commutative rings (commonly called commutative algebra), affine derived algebraic geometry over characteristic zero is equivalent to the theory of commutative differential graded rings. One of the main example of derived schemes comes from the derived intersection of subschemes of a scheme, giving the Koszul complex. For example, let , then we can get a derived scheme where is the étale spectrum. Since we can construct a resolution the derived ring is the koszul complex . The truncation of this derived scheme to amplitude provides a classical model motivating derived algebraic geometry. Notice that if we have a projective scheme where we can construct the derived scheme where with amplitude Cotangent complex Construction Let be a fixed differential graded algebra defined over a field of characteristic . Then a -differential graded algebra is called semi-free if the following conditions hold: The underlying graded algebra is a polynomial algebra over , meaning it is isomorphic to There exists a filtration on the indexing set where and for any . It turns out that every differential graded algebra admits a surjective quasi-isomorphism from a semi-free differential graded algebra, called a semi-free resolution. These are unique up to homotopy equivalence in a suitable model category. The (relative) cotangent complex of an -differential graded algebra can be constructed using a semi-free resolution : it is defined as Many examples can be constructed by taking the algebra representing a variety over a field of characteristic 0, finding a presentation of as a quotient of a polynomial algebra and taking the Koszul complex associated to this presentation. The Koszul complex acts as a semi-free resolution of the differential graded algebra where is the graded algebra with the non-trivial graded piece in degree 0. Examples The cotangent complex of a hypersurface can easily be computed: since we have the dga representing the derived enhancement of , we can compute the cotangent comp
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutative%20ring%20spectrum
In the mathematical field of algebraic topology, a commutative ring spectrum, roughly equivalent to a -ring spectrum, is a commutative monoid in a good category of spectra. The category of commutative ring spectra over the field of rational numbers is Quillen equivalent to the category of differential graded algebras over . Example: The Witten genus may be realized as a morphism of commutative ring spectra MString →tmf. See also: simplicial commutative ring, highly structured ring spectrum and derived scheme. Terminology Almost all reasonable categories of commutative ring spectra can be shown to be Quillen equivalent to each other. Thus, from the point view of the stable homotopy theory, the term "commutative ring spectrum" may be used as a synonymous to an -ring spectrum. Notes References Algebraic topology
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derived%20algebraic%20geometry
Derived algebraic geometry is a branch of mathematics that generalizes algebraic geometry to a situation where commutative rings, which provide local charts, are replaced by either differential graded algebras (over ), simplicial commutative rings or -ring spectra from algebraic topology, whose higher homotopy groups account for the non-discreteness (e.g., Tor) of the structure sheaf. Grothendieck's scheme theory allows the structure sheaf to carry nilpotent elements. Derived algebraic geometry can be thought of as an extension of this idea, and provides natural settings for intersection theory (or motivic homotopy theory) of singular algebraic varieties and cotangent complexes in deformation theory (cf. J. Francis), among the other applications. Introduction Basic objects of study in the field are derived schemes and derived stacks. The oft-cited motivation is Serre's intersection formula. In the usual formulation, the formula involves the Tor functor and thus, unless higher Tor vanish, the scheme-theoretic intersection (i.e., fiber product of immersions) does not yield the correct intersection number. In the derived context, one takes the derived tensor product , whose higher homotopy is higher Tor, whose Spec is not a scheme but a derived scheme. Hence, the "derived" fiber product yields the correct intersection number. (Currently this is hypothetical; the derived intersection theory has yet to be developed.) The term "derived" is used in the same way as derived functor or derived category, in the sense that the category of commutative rings is being replaced with a ∞-category of "derived rings." In classical algebraic geometry, the derived category of quasi-coherent sheaves is viewed as a triangulated category, but it has natural enhancement to a stable ∞-category, which can be thought of as the ∞-categorical analogue of an abelian category. Definitions Derived algebraic geometry is fundamentally the study of geometric objects using homological algebra and homotopy. Since objects in this field should encode the homological and homotopy information, there are various notions of what derived spaces encapsulate. The basic objects of study in derived algebraic geometry are derived schemes, and more generally, derived stacks. Heuristically, derived schemes should be functors from some category of derived rings to the category of sets which can be generalized further to have targets of higher groupoids (which are expected to be modelled by homotopy types). These derived stacks are suitable functors of the form Many authors model such functors as functors with values in simplicial sets, since they model homotopy types and are well-studied. Differing definitions on these derived spaces depend on a choice of what the derived rings are, and what the homotopy types should look like. Some examples of derived rings include commutative differential graded algebras, simplicial rings, and -rings. Derived geometry over characteristic 0 Over characte

In geometry, there are seven uniform and uniform dual polyhedra named as ditrigonal. Ditrigonal vertex figures There are five uniform ditrigonal polyhedra, all with icosahedral symmetry. The three uniform star polyhedron with Wythoff symbol of the form 3 | p q or | p q are ditrigonal, at least if p and q are not 2. Each polyhedron includes two types of faces, being of triangles, pentagons, or pentagrams. Their vertex configurations are of the form p.q.p.q.p.q or (p.q)3 with a symmetry of order 3. Here, term ditrigonal refers to a hexagon having a symmetry of order 3 (triangular symmetry) acting with 2 rotational orbits on the 6 angles of the vertex figure (the word ditrigonal means "having two sets of 3 angles"). Other uniform ditrigonal polyhedra The small ditrigonal dodecicosidodecahedron and the great ditrigonal dodecicosidodecahedron are also uniform. Their duals are respectively the small ditrigonal dodecacronic hexecontahedron and great ditrigonal dodecacronic hexecontahedron.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rytz%27s%20construction
The Rytz’s axis construction is a basic method of descriptive geometry to find the axes, the semi-major axis and semi-minor axis and the vertices of an ellipse, starting from two conjugated half-diameters. If the center and the semi axis of an ellipse are determined the ellipse can be drawn using an ellipsograph or by hand (see ellipse). Rytz’s construction is a classical construction of Euclidean geometry, in which only compass and ruler are allowed as aids. The design is named after its inventor David Rytz of Brugg (1801–1868). Conjugate diameters appear always if a circle or an ellipse is projected parallelly (the rays are parallel) as images of orthogonal diameters of a circle (see second diagram) or as images of the axes of an ellipse. An essential property of two conjugate diameters is: The tangents at the ellipse points of one diameter are parallel to the second diameter (see second diagram). Problem statement and solution The parallel projection (skew or orthographic) of a circle that is in general an ellipse (the special case of a line segment as image is omitted). A fundamental task in descriptive geometry is to draw such an image of a circle. The diagram shows a military projection of a cube with 3 circles on 3 faces of the cube. The image plane for a military projection is horizontal. That means the circle on the top appears in its true shape (as circle). The images of the circles at the other two faces are obviously ellipses with unknown axes. But one recognizes in any case the images of two orthogonal diameters of the circles. These diameters of the ellipses are no more orthogonal but as images of orthogonal diameters of the circle they are conjugate (the tangents at the end points of one diameter are parallel to the other diameter !). This is a standard situation in descriptive geometry: From an ellipse the center and two points on two conjugate diameters are known. Task: find the axes and semi-axes of the ellipse. Steps of the construction (1) rotate point around by 90°. (2) Determine the center of the line segment . (3) Draw the line and the circle with center through . Intersect the circle and the line. The intersection points are . (4) The lines and are the of the ellipse. (5) The line segment can be considered as a paperstrip of length (see ellipse) generating point . Hence and are the . (If then is the semi- axis.) (6) The vertices and co-vertices are known and the ellipse can be drawn by one of the drawing methods. If one performs a left turn of point , then the configuration shows the 2nd paper strip method (see second diagram in next section) and and is still true. Proof of the statement The standard proof is performed geometrically. An alternative proof uses analytic geometry: The proof is done, if one is able to show that the intersection points of the line with the axes of the ellipse lie on the circle through with center , hence and , and Proof (1): Any ellipse can be represented
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplicial%20commutative%20ring
In algebra, a simplicial commutative ring is a commutative monoid in the category of simplicial abelian groups, or, equivalently, a simplicial object in the category of commutative rings. If A is a simplicial commutative ring, then it can be shown that is a ring and are modules over that ring (in fact, is a graded ring over .) A topology-counterpart of this notion is a commutative ring spectrum. Examples The ring of polynomial differential forms on simplexes. Graded ring structure Let A be a simplicial commutative ring. Then the ring structure of A gives the structure of a graded-commutative graded ring as follows. By the Dold–Kan correspondence, is the homology of the chain complex corresponding to A; in particular, it is a graded abelian group. Next, to multiply two elements, writing for the simplicial circle, let be two maps. Then the composition , the second map the multiplication of A, induces . This in turn gives an element in . We have thus defined the graded multiplication . It is associative because the smash product is. It is graded-commutative (i.e., ) since the involution introduces a minus sign. If M is a simplicial module over A (that is, M is a simplicial abelian group with an action of A), then the similar argument shows that has the structure of a graded module over (cf. Module spectrum). Spec By definition, the category of affine derived schemes is the opposite category of the category of simplicial commutative rings; an object corresponding to A will be denoted by .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheaf%20of%20spectra
In algebraic topology, a presheaf of spectra on a topological space X is a contravariant functor from the category of open subsets of X, where morphisms are inclusions, to the good category of commutative ring spectra. A theorem of Jardine says that such presheaves form a simplicial model category, where F →G is a weak equivalence if the induced map of homotopy sheaves is an isomorphism. A sheaf of spectra is then a fibrant/cofibrant object in that category. The notion is used to define, for example, a derived scheme in algebraic geometry. References External links Algebraic topology

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric%20spectrum
In algebraic topology, a symmetric spectrum X is a spectrum of pointed simplicial sets that comes with an action of the symmetric group on such that the composition of structure maps is equivariant with respect to . A morphism between symmetric spectra is a morphism of spectra that is equivariant with respect to the actions of symmetric groups. The technical advantage of the category of symmetric spectra is that it has a closed symmetric monoidal structure (with respect to smash product). It is also a simplicial model category. A symmetric ring spectrum is a monoid in ; if the monoid is commutative, it's a commutative ring spectrum. The possibility of this definition of "ring spectrum" was one of motivations behind the category. A similar technical goal is also achieved by May's theory of S-modules, a competing theory.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grace%20Bates
Grace Elizabeth Bates (13 August 1914 – 19 November 1996) was an American mathematician and one of few women in the United States to be granted a Ph.D. in mathematics in the 1940s. She became an emeritus professor at Mount Holyoke College. Bates specialized in algebra and probability theory, and she co-authored two textbooks: The Real Number System and Modern Algebra, Second Course. Throughout her own education, Bates overcame obstructions to her pursuit of knowledge, opening the way for future women learners. Early life and education She was born on 13 August 1914. Interested in mathematics from a very young age, Bates was encouraged to pursue her interest by her family. Bates maintained a close relationship with her brother, reinforced by the early death of their mother. Upon completing high school, her brother used his salary to help her continue her education through high school and college. During her studies, Bates petitioned several times to take more advanced math courses than were typically available to female students. She attended the Cazenovia Seminary for high school, where she petitioned to take intermediate algebra. She pursued her undergraduate studies at Middlebury College, which was segregated by sex at this time. For her senior year, Bates petitioned to take differential equations, which was only offered to male students. After completing her B.S. in mathematics in 1935, she continued in her studies to obtain a master's degree from Brown University in 1938. Bates entered her doctoral program at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1944. Initially interested in geometry, Bates instead decided to pursue algebra and work under Reinhold Baer. She completed her doctoral thesis, titled "Free Loops and Nets and their Generalizations", in 1946. Professional life and continuing education Bates taught briefly at Sweet Briar College before joining the faculty of Mount Holyoke College. After discussing her interest in probability and statistics with colleague Antoni Zygmund, Zygmund referred her to Jerzy Neyman at the University of California, Berkeley. Consequently, Bates obtained an assistantship at the Berkeley Statistical Laboratory and spend several summers working with Neyman in the 1950s. Together they wrote a number of research articles on probability theory. Bates advanced to become a full and emeritus professor at Mount Holyoke College and taught until her retirement in 1979. She died on 19 November 1996.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime%20in%20Hong%20Kong
Crime in Hong Kong is present in various forms. The most common crimes are thefts, assaults, vandalism, burglaries, drug offenses, sex trafficking, and triad-related crimes. Statistics In the year 2018, crime dropped to a 39-year low for Hong Kong. There were 8,884 reported incidents of violent crimes in Hong Kong at that time. In 2018, Hong Kong had 48 homicides, 4,593 incidents of wounding and serious assaults, 147 robberies, 1,575 burglaries, and 63 rapes. After 2018, crime rate are increasing every year (as of 2023). In the 2000s, the number and rate of murders were the highest in 2002. 2011 had the lowest rate and number of murders, at 17 (0.2 murders per 100,000 people). The homicide rate increased 129.6% in 2013 from 2012 though this was due to the inclusion of 39 deaths from the Lamma Island ferry collision. The most common forms of crime in Hong Kong are non-violent crimes. There were 27,512 reports of theft in Hong Kong in 2015. The most common forms of theft were miscellaneous thefts, shoplifting, pick-pocketing, and vehicle theft. Criminal damage is also a common crime in Hong Kong, with 5,920 reports in 2015. Fraud and deception has significant increase since 2022. Since late 2022, there are increasing public concern on increasing knife crime and knife attack in the city. Organised crime Crimes committed by triads occur in Hong Kong. Common triad-related offenses include extortion, illegal gambling, drug trafficking, and racketeering. One of the world's largest triads, Sun Yee On, was founded in Hong Kong in 1919 and is reported to have 55,000 members worldwide. Sun Yee On's rival organisation, 14K Triad, was formed in Guangzhou, Guangdong, China in 1945, and relocated to Hong Kong in 1949. According to British criminal Colin Blaney in his autobiography Undesirables, British organised crime groups known as the Wide Awake Firm and the Inter City Jibbers that specialise in jewelry thefts and picking pockets have also been known to operate in Hong Kong. Human trafficking Hong Kong is a known transit city for human trafficking; victims are often coerced into forced labour or sexual exploitation. Sex trafficking Domestic and transnational criminal organizations carry out sex trafficking in Hong Kong. Victims of forced prostitution are often assaulted in brothels, homes, and businesses in the city. Many mainland Chinese prostitutes in Hong Kong are victims of sexual trafficking. There is no comprehensive anti-human trafficking law in Hong Kong. Racism There have been reports of systematic racism in Hong Kong against non-Chinese or "dark-skinned" citizens. Knife attacks Knife crime and knife attacks in Hong Kong is an issue. In 2022, local media in Hong Kong coined the term "", which can be translated literally as "international knife metropolis", to describe a spike in knife attacks in the city. Fraud In 2022, fraud cases rose 45 percent compared to the previous year. The first five months of 2023 saw an almost 60 percen

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PROSE%20modeling%20language
PROSE was the mathematical 4GL virtual machine that established the holistic modeling paradigm known as Synthetic Calculus (AKA MetaCalculus). A successor to the SLANG/CUE simulation and optimization language developed at TRW Systems, it was introduced in 1974 on Control Data supercomputers. It was the first commercial language to employ automatic differentiation (AD), which was optimized to loop in the instruction-stack of the CDC 6600 CPU. Although PROSE was a rich block-structured procedural language, its focus was the blending of simultaneous-variable mathematical systems such as: implicit non-linear equations systems, ordinary differential-equations systems, and multidimensional optimization. Each of these kinds of system models were distinct and had operator templates to automate and solve them, added to the procedural syntax. These automated system problems were considered "holistic" because their unknowns were simultaneous, and they could not be reduced in formulation to solve piecewise, or by algebra manipulation (e.g. substitution), but had to be solved as wholes. And wholeness also pertained to algorithmic determinacy or mathematical "closure", which made solution convergence possible and certain in principle, if not corrupted by numerical instability. Holarchies of Differential Propagation Since these holistic problem models could be independently automated and solved due to this closure, they could be blended into higher wholes by nesting one inside of another, in the manner of subroutines. Users could regard them as if they were ordinary subroutines. Yet semantically, this mathematical blending was considerably more complex than the mechanics of subroutines because an iterative solution engine was attached to each problem model by its calling operator template above it in the program hierarchy. In its numerical solution process, this engine would take control and would call the problem model subroutine iteratively, not returning to the calling template until its system problem was solved. During some or maybe all of the iterative model-subroutine calls, the engine would invoke automatic differentiation of the formulas in the model holarchy with respect to the model's input-unknowns (arguments) defined in the calling template. Additional mechanisms were performed in the semantics to accommodate ubiquitous nesting of these holistic models. Differentiation of Prediction Processes If the nested solution was a prediction (e.g. numerical integration), then its solution algorithm, in addition to the model formulas, would also be automatically differentiated. Since this differentiation propagated (via the chain rule) throughout the integration from initial conditions to boundary conditions, the differentiation of boundary conditions with respect to initial conditions (so called Fréchet derivatives) would be performed. This enabled the routine solution of boundary-value problems by iterative "shooting" methods using Newton-method

In metric geometry, the Reshetnyak gluing theorem gives information on the structure of a geometric object built by using as building blocks other geometric objects, belonging to a well defined class. Intuitively, it states that a manifold obtained by joining (i.e. "gluing") together, in a precisely defined way, other manifolds having a given property inherit that very same property. The theorem was first stated and proved by Yurii Reshetnyak in 1968. Statement Theorem: Let be complete locally compact geodesic metric spaces of CAT curvature , and convex subsets which are isometric. Then the manifold , obtained by gluing all along all , is also of CAT curvature . For an exposition and a proof of the Reshetnyak Gluing Theorem, see .
