https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient%20discretisation%20method
In numerical mathematics, the gradient discretisation method (GDM) is a framework which contains classical and recent numerical schemes for diffusion problems of various kinds: linear or non-linear, steady-state or time-dependent. The schemes may be conforming or non-conforming, and may rely on very general polygonal or polyhedral meshes (or may even be meshless). Some core properties are required to prove the convergence of a GDM. These core properties enable complete proofs of convergence of the GDM for elliptic and parabolic problems, linear or non-linear. For linear problems, stationary or transient, error estimates can be established based on three indicators specific to the GDM (the quantities , and , see below). For non-linear problems, the proofs are based on compactness techniques and do not require any non-physical strong regularity assumption on the solution or the model data. Non-linear models for which such convergence proof of the GDM have been carried out comprise: the Stefan problem which is modelling a melting material, two-phase flows in porous media, the Richards equation of underground water flow, the fully non-linear Leray—Lions equations. Any scheme entering the GDM framework is then known to converge on all these problems. This applies in particular to conforming Finite Elements, Mixed Finite Elements, nonconforming Finite Elements, and, in the case of more recent schemes, the Discontinuous Galerkin method, Hybrid Mixed Mimetic method, the Nodal Mimetic Finite Difference method, some Discrete Duality Finite Volume schemes, and some Multi-Point Flux Approximation schemes The example of a linear diffusion problem Consider Poisson's equation in a bounded open domain , with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition where . The usual sense of weak solution to this model is: In a nutshell, the GDM for such a model consists in selecting a finite-dimensional space and two reconstruction operators (one for the functions, one for the gradients) and to substitute these discrete elements in lieu of the continuous elements in (2). More precisely, the GDM starts by defining a Gradient Discretization (GD), which is a triplet , where: the set of discrete unknowns is a finite dimensional real vector space, the function reconstruction is a linear mapping that reconstructs, from an element of , a function over , the gradient reconstruction is a linear mapping which reconstructs, from an element of , a "gradient" (vector-valued function) over . This gradient reconstruction must be chosen such that is a norm on . The related Gradient Scheme for the approximation of (2) is given by: find such that The GDM is then in this case a nonconforming method for the approximation of (2), which includes the nonconforming finite element method. Note that the reciprocal is not true, in the sense that the GDM framework includes methods such that the function cannot be computed from the function . The following error estimate, inspired by

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius%20inner%20product
In mathematics, the Frobenius inner product is a binary operation that takes two matrices and returns a scalar. It is often denoted . The operation is a component-wise inner product of two matrices as though they are vectors, and satisfies the axioms for an inner product. The two matrices must have the same dimension - same number of rows and columns, but are not restricted to be square matrices. Definition Given two complex number-valued n×m matrices A and B, written explicitly as the Frobenius inner product is defined as, where the overline denotes the complex conjugate, and denotes Hermitian conjugate. Explicitly this sum is The calculation is very similar to the dot product, which in turn is an example of an inner product. Relation to other products If A and B are each real-valued matrices, the Frobenius inner product is the sum of the entries of the Hadamard product. If the matrices are vectorised (i.e., converted into column vectors, denoted by ""), then Therefore Properties It is a sesquilinear form, for four complex-valued matrices A, B, C, D, and two complex numbers a and b: Also, exchanging the matrices amounts to complex conjugation: For the same matrix, , and, .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segregated%20Runge%E2%80%93Kutta%20methods
The Segregated Runge–Kutta (SRK) method is a family of IMplicit–EXplicit (IMEX) Runge–Kutta methods that were developed to approximate the solution of differential algebraic equations (DAE) of index 2. The SRK method were motivated as a numerical method for the time integration of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with two salient properties. First, velocity and pressure computations are segregated. Second, the method keeps the same order of accuracy for both velocities and pressures. However, the SRK method can also be applied to any other DAE of index 2. The Segregated Runge–Kutta method Consider an index 2 DAE defined as follows: where , , and In the previous equations is known as the differential variable, while is known as the algebraic variable. The time derivative of the differential variable, , depends on itself, , on the algebraic variable, , and on the time, . The second equation can be seen as a constraint on differential variable, . Let us take the time derivative of the second equation. Assuming that the function is linear and does not depend on time, and that the function is linear with respect to , we have that A Runge–Kutta time integration scheme is defined as a multistage integration in which each stage is computed as a combination of the unknowns evaluated in other stages. Depending on the definition of the parameters, this combination can lead to an implicit scheme or an explicit scheme. Implicit and explicit schemes can be combined, leading to IMEX schemes. Suppose that the function can be split into two operators and such that where and are the terms to be treated implicitly and explicitly, respectively. The SRK method is based on the use of IMEX Runge–Kutta schemes and can be defined by the following scheme: Given a time step size , at a time , for each Runge-Kutta stage , with , solve: 1) 2) . Update the variables at solving: 3) 4) . References Equations
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic%20dimension
In metric geometry, asymptotic dimension of a metric space is a large-scale analog of Lebesgue covering dimension. The notion of asymptotic dimension was introduced by Mikhail Gromov in his 1993 monograph Asymptotic invariants of infinite groups in the context of geometric group theory, as a quasi-isometry invariant of finitely generated groups. As shown by Guoliang Yu, finitely generated groups of finite homotopy type with finite asymptotic dimension satisfy the Novikov conjecture. Asymptotic dimension has important applications in geometric analysis and index theory. Formal definition Let be a metric space and be an integer. We say that if for every there exists a uniformly bounded cover of such that every closed -ball in intersects at most subsets from . Here 'uniformly bounded' means that . We then define the asymptotic dimension as the smallest integer such that , if at least one such exists, and define otherwise. Also, one says that a family of metric spaces satisfies uniformly if for every and every there exists a cover of by sets of diameter at most (independent of ) such that every closed -ball in intersects at most subsets from . Examples If is a metric space of bounded diameter then . . . . Properties If is a subspace of a metric space , then . For any metric spaces and one has . If then . If is a coarse embedding (e.g. a quasi-isometric embedding), then . If and are coarsely equivalent metric spaces (e.g. quasi-isometric metric spaces), then . If is a real tree then . Let be a Lipschitz map from a geodesic metric space to a metric space . Suppose that for every the set family satisfies the inequality uniformly. Then See If is a metric space with then admits a coarse (uniform) embedding into a Hilbert space. If is a metric space of bounded geometry with then admits a coarse embedding into a product of locally finite simplicial trees. Asymptotic dimension in geometric group theory Asymptotic dimension achieved particular prominence in geometric group theory after a 1998 paper of Guoliang Yu , which proved that if is a finitely generated group of finite homotopy type (that is with a classifying space of the homotopy type of a finite CW-complex) such that , then satisfies the Novikov conjecture. As was subsequently shown, finitely generated groups with finite asymptotic dimension are topologically amenable, i.e. satisfy Guoliang Yu's Property A introduced in and equivalent to the exactness of the reduced C*-algebra of the group. If is a word-hyperbolic group then . If is relatively hyperbolic with respect to subgroups each of which has finite asymptotic dimension then . . If , where are finitely generated, then . For Thompson's group F we have since contains subgroups isomorphic to for arbitrarily large . If is the fundamental group of a finite graph of groups with underlying graph and finitely generated vertex groups, then Mapping class groups of orienta

They are known from several inscriptions dated to the years 38-134 of an unspecified calendar era. Based on the identification of this era with the Gupta era, they are believed to have ruled during 4th and 5th centuries CE. These rulers of Valkha were probably vassals of the Gupta emperors. Territory The core territory of the Valkha rulers was located along the Narmada river around present-day Khargone district (West Nimar), Madhya Pradesh. In 1982, a hoard of 27 inscriptions of the dynasty's rulers were found at Risawala adivasi settlement on the outskirts of the Bagh town in Dhar district. This suggests that the name "Bagh" is derived from "Valkha". The inscriptions of the dynasty have also been discovered at Indore and Shirpur (or Sirpur). Date The inscriptions of the Valkha rulers are dated to the years 38-134 of an unspecified calendar era. The rulers are titled Maharaja ("great king") and described as meditating at the feet of the Parama-bhattaraka ("supreme overlord"). Some historians, such as D. C. Sircar and R. C. Majumdar theorized that the Maharajas of Valkha were subordinates to the Gupta emperors, who were overlords of northern India. According to these scholars, the calendar era used in the Valkha inscriptions is the Gupta era, which starts from 319 CE. On the other hand, V. V. Mirashi suggested that the calendar era used in the Valkha inscriptions is the Abhira era starting in 249 CE. He also identified the location of Valkha as Waghali in present-day Maharashtra. History Bhulunda, the name of the dynasty's earliest known ruler, appears to be a non-Sanskrit name. The later rulers of the dynasty have Sanskrit names, and the inscriptions don't mention the relationships between the different rulers. One theory is that Bhulunda was a tribal chieftain, who was appointed by emperor Samudragupta as the governor; the later feudal governors were of Indo-Aryan origin. Another theory is that the later four governors were descendants of Bhulunda, and adopted Sanskritized names. All the inscriptions record land grants to Brahmanas, groups of Brahmins (called Chaturvaidya-Samooha) or temple deities. This has led to suggestions that the Gupta emperors attempted to Brahminize what were then tribal areas of

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully%20irreducible%20automorphism
In the mathematical subject geometric group theory, a fully irreducible automorphism of the free group Fn is an element of Out(Fn) which has no periodic conjugacy classes of proper free factors in Fn (where n > 1). Fully irreducible automorphisms are also referred to as "irreducible with irreducible powers" or "iwip" automorphisms. The notion of being fully irreducible provides a key Out(Fn) counterpart of the notion of a pseudo-Anosov element of the mapping class group of a finite type surface. Fully irreducibles play an important role in the study of structural properties of individual elements and of subgroups of Out(Fn). Formal definition Let where . Then is called fully irreducible if there do not exist an integer and a proper free factor of such that , where is the conjugacy class of in . Here saying that is a proper free factor of means that and there exists a subgroup such that . Also, is called fully irreducible if the outer automorphism class of is fully irreducible. Two fully irreducibles are called independent if . Relationship to irreducible automorphisms The notion of being fully irreducible grew out of an older notion of an ``irreducible" outer automorphism of originally introduced in. An element , where , is called irreducible if there does not exist a free product decomposition with , and with being proper free factors of , such that permutes the conjugacy classes . Then is fully irreducible in the sense of the definition above if and only if for every is irreducible. It is known that for any atoroidal (that is, without periodic conjugacy classes of nontrivial elements of ), being irreducible is equivalent to being fully irreducible. For non-atoroidal automorphisms, Bestvina and Handel produce an example of an irreducible but not fully irreducible element of , induced by a suitably chosen pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface with more than one boundary component. Properties If and then is fully irreducible if and only if is fully irreducible. Every fully irreducible can be represented by an expanding irreducible train track map. Every fully irreducible has exponential growth in given by a stretch factor . This stretch factor has the property that for every free basis of (and, more generally, for every point of the Culler–Vogtmann Outer space ) and for every one has: Moreover, is equal to the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue of the transition matrix of any train track representative of . Unlike for stretch factors of pseudo-Anosov surface homeomorphisms, it can happen that for a fully irreducible one has and this behavior is believed to be generic. However, Handel and Mosher proved that for every there exists a finite constant such that for every fully irreducible A fully irreducible is non-atoroidal, that is, has a periodic conjugacy class of a nontrivial element of , if and only if is induced by a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a compact connected surface with one bou

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperture%20Photometry%20Tool
Aperture Photometry Tool (APT) is software with a graphical user interface for computing aperture photometry on astronomical imagery. Image overlays, graphical representations, statistics, models, options and controls for aperture-photometry calculations are brought together into a single package. The software also can be utilized as a FITS-image viewer. APT is executed on desktop and laptop computers, and is free of charge under a license that limits its use to astronomical research and education. The software may be downloaded from its official website, and requires the Java Virtual Machine to be installed on the user's computer. History The initial version of APT was released on November 2, 2007. The latest version is APT v. 2.8.4, released on April 22, 2020. The software was developed by Dr. Russ Laher, a member of the professional staff at the Spitzer Science Center, part of the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center (IPAC) at the California Institute of Technology. A paper on APT was published in July 2012 in the journal Publications of the Astronomy Society of the Pacific. A companion paper compares the performance of APT vs. SExtractor, an established command-line software program for aperture photometry. Aperture and Sky Annulus Aperture geometry, size, and location in the image are important parameters in aperture photometry. APT allows circular and elliptical shapes for apertures and sky annuli (the latter are used for background estimation). The rotation can be controlled in the case of an ellipse. The sky annulus will have the same shape as the aperture, but with larger inner and outer radii than the aperture. Although there is no hard limitation on the size, it is practically limited by the software's response time in the calculation for a large aperture and sky annulus, and the tool for the user to interactively specify the size parameters includes a subimage that is only about 80 pixels on a side (at this time). The aperture is placed on the desired image location with a mouse click. Options to allow minor adjustments of the aperture position via centroiding are available. APT also has pixel-zapping functionality, which can be used to temporarily set the value of select pixels to NaN (not a number), effectively removing them from the aperture-photometry calculations. Sky Coordinates For aperture photometry on an astronomical image, it is often useful to know the sky coordinates of an image pixel. APT computes and displays sky coordinates if keywords that define a World Coordinate System (WCS) are present in the header of the FITS-image file. APT handles the commonly used tangent or gnomonic projection (TAN, TPV, and SIP subtypes), as well as the sine (a.k.a. orthographic), Cartesian, and Aitoff projections(the latter is probably only useful for display purposes). Recent updates to APT include the ability to read FITS image files which use a Pixel Coordinate matrix (PCM), such as that used by the Panoramic Survey

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square-difference-free%20set
In mathematics, a square-difference-free set is a set of natural numbers, no two of which differ by a square number. Hillel Furstenberg and András Sárközy proved in the late 1970s the Furstenberg–Sárközy theorem of additive number theory showing that, in a certain sense, these sets cannot be very large. In the game of subtract a square, the positions where the next player loses form a square-difference-free set. Another square-difference-free set is obtained by doubling the Moser–de Bruijn sequence. The best known upper bound on the size of a square-difference-free set of numbers up to is only slightly sublinear, but the largest known sets of this form are significantly smaller, of size . Closing the gap between these upper and lower bounds remains an open problem. The sublinear size bounds on square-difference-free sets can be generalized to sets where certain other polynomials are forbidden as differences between pairs of elements. Example An example of a set with no square differences arises in the game of subtract a square, invented by Richard A. Epstein and first described in 1966 by Solomon W. Golomb. In this game, two players take turns removing coins from a pile of coins; the player who removes the last coin wins. In each turn, the player can only remove a nonzero square number of coins from the pile. Any position in this game can be described by an integer, its number of coins. The non-negative integers can be partitioned into "cold" positions, in which the player who is about to move is losing, and "hot" positions, in which the player who is about to move can win by moving to a cold position. No two cold positions can differ by a square, because if they did then a player faced with the larger of the two positions could move to the smaller position and win. Thus, the cold positions form a set with no square difference: These positions can be generated by a greedy algorithm in which the cold positions are generated in numerical order, at each step selecting the smallest number that does not have a square difference with any previously selected As Golomb observed, the cold positions are infinite, and more strongly the number of cold positions up to is at least proportional For, if there were fewer cold positions, there wouldn't be enough of them to supply a winning move to each hot position. The Furstenberg–Sárközy theorem shows, however, that the cold positions are less frequent than hot positions: for every , and for all large the proportion of cold positions up to is That is, when faced with a starting position in the range from the first player can win from most of these positions. Numerical evidence suggests that the actual number of cold positions is Upper bounds According to the Furstenberg–Sárközy theorem, if is a square-difference-free set, then the natural density of is zero. That is, for every , and for all sufficiently large , the fraction of the numbers up to that are in is less than . Equivalently, every set

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume%20and%20displacement%20indicators%20for%20an%20architectural%20structure
The volume (W) and displacement (Δ) indicators have been discovered by Philippe Samyn in 1997 to help the search for the optimal geometry of architectural structures. Objective The study is limited to the quest of the geometry giving the structure of minimum volume. The cost of a structure depends on the nature and the quantity of the materials used as well as the tools and human resources required for its production. Although technological progress has reduced the cost of tools and the amount of human resources required, and despite the fact that computerised calculation tools can now be used to determine the dimension of a structure so that the load it bears at every point is within the admissible limits allowed by its constituent materials, it is also necessary for its geometry to be optimal. It is far from simple to find this optimal point because the choice available is so vast. Furthermore, the resistance of the structure is not the only criterion to take into account. In many cases, it is also important to ensure that it will not undergo excessive deformation under static loads or that it does not vibrate to inconvenient or dangerous levels when subjected to dynamic loads. Volume and displacement indicators, W and Δ, discovered by Philippe Samyn in August 1997, are useful tools in this regard. This approach does not take into account phenomena of elastic instability. It can indeed be shown that it is always possible to design a structure so that this effect becomes negligible. The indicators The objective is to ascertain the optimal morphology for a two-dimensional structure with constant thickness, which: fits in a rectangle of pre-determined dimensions, longitudinal L and horizontal H, expressed in metres (m); is made of one (or several) material(s) with a modulus of elasticity E, expressed in Pascals (Pa), and bearing a load at all points within its allowable stress(es) σ, expressed in Pascals (Pa); is resistant to the maximum loads to which it is subjected, in the form of a "resultant" F, expressed in Newtons (N). Each form chosen corresponds to a volume of material V (in m3) and a maximum deformation δ (in m). Their calculation depends on the factors L, H, E, σ and F. These calculations are long and tedious, they cloud the objective of finding the optimal form. It is, nevertheless, possible to overcome this problem by setting each factor to unity: while all other characteristics remain the same. Length L is therefore set to 1m, H to H/L, E and σ to 1Pa, and F to 1N. This "reduced" structure has a volume of material W= σV/ FL (the volume indicator) and a maximum deformation Δ = Eδ / σL (the displacement indicator). Their main characteristic is that they are numbers without physical dimensions (dimensionless) and their value, for every morphology considered, depends only on the ratio L/H, i.e. the geometric slenderness ratio of the form. This method can easily be applied to three-dimensional structures as illustrated in
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence%20group
In mathematics, a convergence group or a discrete convergence group is a group acting by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space in a way that generalizes the properties of the action of Kleinian group by Möbius transformations on the ideal boundary of the hyperbolic 3-space . The notion of a convergence group was introduced by Gehring and Martin (1987) and has since found wide applications in geometric topology, quasiconformal analysis, and geometric group theory. Formal definition Let be a group acting by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space . This action is called a convergence action or a discrete convergence action (and then is called a convergence group or a discrete convergence group for this action) if for every infinite distinct sequence of elements there exist a subsequence and points such that the maps converge uniformly on compact subsets to the constant map sending to . Here converging uniformly on compact subsets means that for every open neighborhood of in and every compact there exists an index such that for every . Note that the "poles" associated with the subsequence are not required to be distinct. Reformulation in terms of the action on distinct triples The above definition of convergence group admits a useful equivalent reformulation in terms of the action of on the "space of distinct triples" of . For a set denote , where . The set is called the "space of distinct triples" for . Then the following equivalence is known to hold: Let be a group acting by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space with at least two points. Then this action is a discrete convergence action if and only if the induced action of on is properly discontinuous. Examples The action of a Kleinian group on by Möbius transformations is a convergence group action. The action of a word-hyperbolic group by translations on its ideal boundary is a convergence group action. The action of a relatively hyperbolic group by translations on its Bowditch boundary is a convergence group action. Let be a proper geodesic Gromov-hyperbolic metric space and let be a group acting properly discontinuously by isometries on . Then the corresponding boundary action of on is a discrete convergence action (Lemma 2.11 of ). Classification of elements in convergence groups Let be a group acting by homeomorphisms on a compact metrizable space with at least three points, and let . Then it is known (Lemma 3.1 in or Lemma 6.2 in ) that exactly one of the following occurs: (1) The element has finite order in ; in this case is called elliptic. (2) The element has infinite order in and the fixed set is a single point; in this case is called parabolic. (3) The element has infinite order in and the fixed set consists of two distinct points; in this case is called loxodromic. Moreover, for every the elements and have the same type. Also in cases (2) and (3) (where ) and the group acts properly dis
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moser%E2%80%93de%20Bruijn%20sequence
In number theory, the Moser–de Bruijn sequence is an integer sequence named after Leo Moser and Nicolaas Govert de Bruijn, consisting of the sums of distinct powers of 4. Equivalently, they are the numbers whose binary representations are nonzero only in even positions. The Moser–de Bruijn numbers in this sequence grow in proportion to the square numbers. They are the squares for a modified form of arithmetic without carrying. The difference of two Moser–de Bruijn numbers, multiplied by two, is never square. Every natural number can be formed in a unique way as the sum of a Moser–de Bruijn number and twice a Moser–de Bruijn number. This representation as a sum defines a one-to-one correspondence between integers and pairs of integers, listed in order of their positions on a Z-order curve. The Moser–de Bruijn sequence can be used to construct pairs of transcendental numbers that are multiplicative inverses of each other and both have simple decimal representations. A simple recurrence relation allows values of the Moser–de Bruijn sequence to be calculated from earlier values, and can be used to prove that the Moser–de Bruijn sequence is a 2-regular sequence. Definition and examples The numbers in the Moser–de Bruijn sequence are formed by adding distinct powers of four. The sequence lists these numbers in sorted order; it begins For instance, 69 belongs to this sequence because it equals 64 + 4 + 1, a sum of three distinct powers of 4. Another definition of the Moser–de Bruijn sequence is that it is the ordered sequence of numbers whose binary representation has nonzero digits only in the even positions. For instance, 69 belongs to the sequence, because its binary representation 10001012 has nonzero digits in the positions for 26, 22, and 20, all of which have even exponents. The numbers in the sequence can also be described as the numbers whose base-4 representation uses only the digits 0 or 1. For a number in this sequence, the base-4 representation can be found from the binary representation by skipping the binary digits in odd positions, which should all be zero. The hexadecimal representation of these numbers contains only the digits 0, 1, 4, 5. For instance, 69 = 10114 = 4516. Equivalently, they are the numbers whose binary and negabinary representations are equal. Because there are no two consecutive nonzeros in their binary representations, the Moser–de Bruijn sequence forms a subsequence of the fibbinary numbers. Growth rate and differences It follows from either the binary or base-4 definitions of these numbers that they grow roughly in proportion to the square numbers. The number of elements in the Moser–de Bruijn sequence that are below any given threshold is proportional to , a fact which is also true of the square numbers. In fact the numbers in the Moser–de Bruijn sequence are the squares for a version of arithmetic without carrying on binary numbers, in which the addition and multiplication of single bits are respectively t

Below are listed all the matches played by the Costa Rica national football team between 2010 and 2019. Overview By team By confederation 2010 Statistics 2011 The year was marked by the inauguration of the new national stadium in San José in late March. Since then, the stadium has served as the home stadium of the team. To encourage the fans to go to the stadium, the Costa Rican Football Federation made a heavy investment by organizing friendlies against FIFA World Cup winners Argentina, Brazil and the then most recent champions Spain. Tragedy also hit the national team during 2011, when defender Dennis Marshall (along with his wife) died in a car accident. Marshall died just five days after scoring his only international goal in a CONCACAF Gold Cup match against Honduras. Overall, 2011 showed lackluster results for the national team. Failures to overcome Honduras at the Copa Centroamericana final and the Gold Cup quarter-finals, along with a poor performance at the Copa América prompted the dismissal of Ricardo La Volpe. After the departure of La Volpe, Rónald González served as interim manager for the team until the arrival of Jorge Luis Pinto in September.

In January, the team won the Copa Centroamericana after two consecutive failures in 2009 and 2011. In September, Costa Rica qualified to the 2014 FIFA World Cup after their absence in the 2010 edition. 2013 also marked the year with the most victories for the Costa Rica national team, with 13 victories. On March 22, Costa Rica played against the United States at the Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City. The match, dubbed as the Snow Clásico in the United States, was played under a heavy snow fall. As the United States won the match with a goal by Clint Dempsey, Costa Ricans were enraged by the circumstances around the match. On September 6, the Ticos would defeat the United States in San José by 3–1, which was considered as a revenge. On October 15, Costa Rica defeated Mexico in San José by 2–1, which marked the first victory over the Mexican team in over twelve years, the latest being the Aztecazo in June 2001. It was also the first victory Costa Rica had against Mexico in home soil for over twenty years. Statistics Coach(es) General statistics Goalscorers 5 goals Celso Borges 4 goals Jairo Arrieta 3

The Gymnasium München Nord is a gymnasium in the Munich city district Milbertshofen-Am Hart. It has languages, mathematics and science specialisms and trains a quarter of its students at a national level in a competitive Olympic sport. The school is located at the former US army Alabama Depot area. Description The school has a capacity of 100 teachers and 900 students. It was founded in 2016, built and operated following the principles of Rainer Schweppe. The school was seen as a group of year groups each having its own open plan multifunctional area, surrounded by the individual classrooms that those students would mainly use. Collapsing classes into larger didactic units was encouraged. It operated on a all-day use principle with student attending in the afternoon for additional reading time. Homework was done on site where teachers were available to assist. Students in the specialist stream may have a timetabled lesson then in one of their additional subjects. The school operates as a Eliteschule des Sports. One out of four of the students is trained for national and international Sport Competitions. The school has a calisthenics park, a beach volleyball court and a 40 meter long boulder wall. The school participates in "School without Racism - School with Courage". Patron is the Paralympic athlete Katharina Lang. School trips Architecture The building is on a 30 ha site that was part of the US Army Alabama Depot and then the Alabama Halle next to BMW Research and Innovation Centre. THe site was landscaped by Hackl Hoffmann. The building was designed and built by the architects h4a Gessert + Randecker . The footprint of the building is 18.000 m², the useable area being 10.000 m². It cost in all 65 millioneuro, and Freistaat Bayern contributed 8 million euro. Public Art As part of the German Kunst am Bau scheme the School hosts two artworks, Feuer & Flamme by the sculptor, from Bruno Wank, and Stefan Wischnewski's Auf die Plätze.

The (from French: Annals of Pure and Applied Mathematics), commonly known as the (Annals of Gergonne), was a mathematical journal published in Nimes, France from 1810 to 1831 by Joseph Diez Gergonne. The annals were largely devoted to geometry, with additional articles on history, philosophy, and mathematics education showing interdisciplinarity. "In the , Gergonne established in form and content a set of exceptionally high standards for mathematical journalism. New symbols and new terms to enrich mathematical literature are found here for the first time. The journal, which met with instant approval, became a model for many another editor. Cauchy, Poncelet, Brianchon, Steiner, Plücker, Crelle, Poisson, Ampere, Chasles, and Liouville sent articles for publication." Operational calculus was developed in the journal in 1814 by Francois-Joseph Servois.

Caspar Vopel (1511–1561) was a German cartographer and instrument maker. Born in Medebach, he studied mathematics and medicine at the University of Cologne in 1526–1529. He taught mathematics at the Gymnasium of Cologne and in the early 1530s established a workshop to produce celestial and terrestrial globes, armillary spheres, sundials, quadrants and astrolabes. An exemplar of Vopel’s 1536 globe is held at Tenri University Library, Nara. In 1545 he began to prepare maps and atlases. His mappemonde of 1545 is titled NOVA ET INTEGRA VNIVERSALISQVE ORBIS TOTIVS IVXTA GERMANVM NEOTERICORVM TRADITIONEM DESCRIPTIO (A New Complete and Universal Description of the Whole World, according to the Modern German Tradition). Vopel is sometimes credited with the promotion of the ancient asterism Coma Berenices to constellation status.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amalendu%20Krishna
Amalendu Krishna (born 2 August 1971) is an Indian mathematician in the Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore, specializing in algebraic cycles and K-theory. He was awarded the Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Prize for Science and Technology, India's highest prize for excellence in science, mathematics and technology, in the mathematical sciences category in the year 2016. Career Krishna was a recipient of the ICTP Ramanujan Prize in the year 2015. The ICTP Ramanujan Prize for Young Mathematicians from Developing Countries is awarded annually by the International Centre for Theoretical Physics, Trieste, Italy and named after Srinivasa Ramanujan jointly with the Department of Science and Technology (Government of India), and the International Mathematical Union. It was founded in 2004 and was first awarded in 2005. The Prize is awarded to a researcher less than 45 years of age, who has conducted outstanding research in a developing country. This is the second time it is being awarded to an Indian, with Sujatha Ramadorai having won it in 2006. According to website of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics: "The prize is in recognition of Krishna's outstanding contributions in the area of algebraic K-theory, algebraic cycles and the theory of motives. In his work, Krishna has shown an impressive command of a very technical subject, applying the modern theories of algebraic K-theory and Voevodsky’s theory of motives to study concrete problems. His results on 0-cycles on algebraic varieties with isolated singularities effectively reduces their study to the corresponding study on the desingularization, together with information about multiples of the exceptional divisors. This allows the complete calculation of the Chow group of 0-cycles on an algebraic variety in many cases, like the case of rational varieties or cones. Working initially with Levine, and later with Park, Krishna built up the original constructions of Bloch-Esnault on additive Chow groups into a full theory. This includes proving fundamental properties, such as the contravariant functoriality and a projective bundle formula, as well as constructing an action of the usual higher Chow groups on the additive ones." Amalendu Krishna hails from Madhubani, Bihar, where he had his school education. He dropped out of IIT, Kanpur, after getting disillusioned by the job-oriented focus of engineering students there. He joined the Indian Statistical Institute in Kolkata. After completing post-graduate studies there in 1996, he joined TIFR to pursue PhD studies.

Their territory included parts of the present-day northern Andhra Pradesh. They were one of the three minor dynasties that emerged after the decline of the Gupta power in the area, the other two being the Matharas and the Pitrbhaktas. Genealogy The Vasishtha king Anantavarman is known from his Siripuram and Srungavarapukota copper-plate inscriptions. These epigraphs describe him as a son of Maharaja Prabhanjanavarman, and a grandson of Maharaja Gunavarman. Thus, three rulers of the dynasty are known: Maharaja Gunavarman Maharaja Prabhanjanavarman Parameshvara Anantavarman Territory The Siripuram and Srungavarapukota inscriptions of Anantavarman were issued from Devapura and Pishtapura respectively. In Siripuram inscription, his grandfather Gunavarman is described as the lord of Devapura. The city was presumably the capital of a region called Devarashtra (within Kalinga), which Anantavarman inherited from his ancestors. Devarashtra is identified as the present-day Yelamanchili taluka. According to the Allahabad Pillar inscription, the Gupta emperor Samudragupta defeated the kings of Devarashtra and Pishtapura during his southern invasion. It appears that Gunavarman became a sovereign of Devarashtra after the decline of the Gupta rule in the region. Religion Unlike the Vaishnavite Matharas, Anantavarman was a Shaivite. His inscriptions describe him as parama-maheshvara (devotee of Shiva). Inscriptions The following copper-plate inscriptions of the Vasishtha kings are known: All the records are in Sanskrit language, written in a southern variety of the Brahmi script.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graded-symmetric%20algebra
In algebra, given a commutative ring R, the graded-symmetric algebra of a graded R-module M is the quotient of the tensor algebra of M by the ideal I generated by elements of the form: when |x | is odd for homogeneous elements x, y in M of degree |x |, |y |. By construction, a graded-symmetric algebra is graded-commutative; i.e., and is universal for this. In spite of the name, the notion is a common generalization of a symmetric algebra and an exterior algebra: indeed, if V is a (non-graded) R-module, then the graded-symmetric algebra of V with trivial grading is the usual symmetric algebra of V. Similarly, the graded-symmetric algebra of the graded module with V in degree one and zero elsewhere is the exterior algebra of V. References David Eisenbud, Commutative Algebra.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graded-commutative%20ring
In algebra, a graded-commutative ring (also called a skew-commutative ring) is a graded ring that is commutative in the graded sense; that is, homogeneous elements x, y satisfy where |x | and |y | denote the degrees of x and y. A commutative (non-graded) ring, with trivial grading, is a basic example. For example, an exterior algebra is generally not a commutative ring but is a graded-commutative ring. A cup product on cohomology satisfies the skew-commutative relation; hence, a cohomology ring is graded-commutative. In fact, many examples of graded-commutative rings come from algebraic topology and homological algebra. References David Eisenbud, Commutative Algebra.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercube%20internetwork%20topology
In computer networking, hypercube networks are a type of network topology used to connect multiple processors with memory modules and accurately route data. Hypercube networks consist of nodes, which form the vertices of squares to create an internetwork connection. A hypercube is basically a multidimensional mesh network with two nodes in each dimension. Due to similarity, such topologies are usually grouped into a -ary -dimensional mesh topology family, where represents the number of dimensions and represents the number of nodes in each dimension. Topology Hypercube interconnection network is formed by connecting N nodes that can be expressed as a power of 2. This means if the network has N nodes it can be expressed as : where m is the number of bits that are required to label the nodes in the network. So, if there are 4 nodes in the network, 2 bits are needed to represent all the nodes in the network. The network is constructed by connecting the nodes that just differ by one bit in their binary representation. This is commonly referred to as Binary labelling. A 3D hypercube internetwork would be a cube with 8 nodes and 12 edges. A 4D hypercube network can be created by duplicating two 3D networks, and adding a most significant bit. The new added bit should be ‘0’ for one 3D hypercube and ‘1’ for the other 3D hypercube. The corners of the respective one-bit changed MSBs are connected to create the higher hypercube network. This method can be used to construct any m-bit represented hypercube with (m-1)-bit represented hypercube. E-Cube Routing Routing method for a hypercube network is referred to as E-Cube routing. The distance between two nodes in the network can be given by Hamming weight of (number of ones in) the XOR-operation between their respective binary labels. The distance between Node 1 (represented as ‘01’) and Node 2 (represented as ‘10’) in the network given by: E-Cube routing is a static routing method that employs XY-routing algorithm. This is commonly referred to as Deterministic, Dimension Ordered Routing model. E-Cube routing works by traversing the network in the kth dimension where k is the least significant non-zero bit in the result of calculating distance. For example, let the sender's label be ‘00’ and the receiver's label be ‘11’. So, the distance between them is 11 and the least significant non-zero bit is the LSB bit. Figuring out which way to go for a ‘0’ or ‘1’ is determined by XY routing algorithm. Metrics Different measures of performance are used to evaluate the efficiency of a hypercube network connection against various other network topologies. Degree This defines the number of immediately adjacent nodes to a particular node. These nodes should be immediate neighbors. In case of a hypercube the degree is m. Diameter This defines the maximum number of nodes that a message must pass through on its way from the source to the destination. This basically gives us the delay in transmitting a message
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly%20network
A butterfly network is a technique to link multiple computers into a high-speed network. This form of multistage interconnection network topology can be used to connect different nodes in a multiprocessor system. The interconnect network for a shared memory multiprocessor system must have low latency and high bandwidth unlike other network systems, like local area networks (LANs) or internet for three reasons: Messages are relatively short as most messages are coherence protocol requests and responses without data. Messages are generated frequently because each read-miss or write-miss generates messages to every node in the system to ensure coherence. Read/write misses occur when the requested data is not in the processor's cache and must be fetched either from memory or from another processor's cache. Messages are generated frequently, therefore rendering it difficult for the processors to hide the communication delay. Components The major components of an interconnect network are: Processor nodes, which consist of one or more processors along with their caches, memories and communication assist. Switching nodes (Router), which connect communication assist of different processor nodes in a system. In multistage topologies, higher level switching nodes connect to lower level switching nodes as shown in figure 1, where switching nodes in rank 0 connect to processor nodes directly while switching nodes in rank 1 connect to switching nodes in rank 0. Links, which are physical wires between two switching nodes. They can be uni-directional or bi-directional. These multistage networks have lower cost than a cross bar, but obtain lower contention than a bus. The ratio of switching nodes to processor nodes is greater than one in a butterfly network. Such topology, where the ratio of switching nodes to processor nodes is greater than one, is called an indirect topology. The network derives its name from connections between nodes in two adjacent ranks (as shown in figure 1), which resembles a butterfly. Merging top and bottom ranks into a single rank, creates a Wrapped Butterfly Network. In figure 1, if rank 3 nodes are connected back to respective rank 0 nodes, then it becomes a wrapped butterfly network. BBN Butterfly, a massive parallel computer built by Bolt, Beranek and Newman in the 1980s, used a butterfly interconnect network. Later in 1990, Cray Research's machine Cray C90, used a butterfly network to communicate between its 16 processors and 1024 memory banks. Butterfly network building For a butterfly network with p processor nodes, there need to be p(log2 p + 1) switching nodes. Figure 1 shows a network with 8 processor nodes, which implies 32 switching nodes. It represents each node as N(rank, column number). For example, the node at column 6 in rank 1 is represented as (1,6) and node at column 2 in rank 0 is represented as (0,2). For any 'i' greater than zero, a switching node N(i,j) gets connected to N(i-1, j

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hundred%20Fowls%20Problem
The Hundred Fowls Problem is a problem first discussed in the fifth century CE Chinese mathematics text Zhang Qiujian suanjing (The Mathematical Classic of Zhang Qiujian), a book of mathematical problems written by Zhang Qiujian. It is one of the best known examples of indeterminate problems in the early history of mathematics. The problem appears as the final problem in Zhang Qiujian suanjing (Problem 38 in Chapter 3). However, the problem and its variants have appeared in the medieval mathematical literature of India, Europe and the Arab world. The name "Hundred Fowls Problem" is due to the Belgian historian Louis van Hee. Problem statement The Hundred Fowls Problem as presented in Zhang Qiujian suanjing can be translated as follows: "Now one cock is worth 5 qian, one hen 3 qian and 3 chicks 1 qian. It is required to buy 100 fowls with 100 qian. In each case, find the number of cocks, hens and chicks bought." Mathematical formulation Let x be the number of cocks, y be the number of hens, and z be the number of chicks, then the problem is to find x, y and z satisfying the following equations: x + y +z = 100 5x + 3y + z/3 = 100 Obviously, only non-negative integer values are acceptable. Expressing y and z in terms of x we get y = 25 − (7/4)x z = 75 + (3/4)x Since x, y and z all must be integers, the expression for y suggests that x must be a multiple of 4. Hence the general solution of the system of equations can be expressed using an integer parameter t as follows: x = 4t y = 25 − 7t z = 75 + 3t Since y should be a non-negative integer, the only possible values of t are 0, 1, 2 and 3. So the complete set of solutions is given by (x,y,z) = (0,25,75), (4,18,78), (8,11,81), (12,4,84). of which the last three have been given in Zhang Qiujian suanjing. However, no general method for solving such problems has been indicated, leading to a suspicion of whether the solutions have been obtained by trial and error. The Hundred Fowls Problem found in Zhang Qiujian suanjing is a special case of the general problem of finding integer solutions of the following system of equations: x + y + z = d ax + by + cz = d Any problem of this type is sometime referred to as "Hundred Fowls problem". Variations Some variants of the Hundred Fowls Problem have appeared in the mathematical literature of several cultures. In the following we present a few sample problems discussed in these cultures. Indian mathematics Mahavira's Ganita-sara-sangraha contains the following problem: Pigeons are sold at the rate of 5 for 3, sarasa-birds at the rate of 7 for 5, swans at the rate of 9 for 7, and peacocks at the rate of 3 for 9 (panas). A certain man was told to bring 100 birds for 100 panas. What does he give for each of the various kinds of birds he buys? The Bakshali manuscript gives the problem of solving the following equations: x + y + z = 20 3x + (3/2)y + (1/2)z = 20 Medieval Europe The English mathematician Alcuin of York (8th century, c

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian%20Census%20of%20Agriculture
The Canadian Census of Agriculture (), is a census conducted every five years by Statistics Canada, alongside the national census, for the purposes of gathering Canadian agricultural industry, farm operator, and farm data. Overview As mandated by the Statistics Act, Statistics Canada carries out a Census of Agriculture every five years. For this purpose, Statistics Canada surveys every agricultural operation and agricultural operator in Canada to construct a detailed, local understanding of demographics, commodities, operation structure, technology spread, and other notable aspects of agricultural data. Like the United States Census of Agriculture, farm operators are obligated to respond to the census. Unlike the Census of Agriculture, there is no minimum amount of agricultural operation income produced and sold for an agricultural operation to be considered. The Census of Agriculture is conducted concurrently with the larger Census of Population. Doing so allows for savings within the administrative costs, as well as for a direct linkage with the socio-demographic results present in the Census of Population, which is used to further inform the results of the Census of Agriculture. This linkage has been running since 1971. The latest Census of Agriculture in Canada was conducted in May 2016. History Following after the designation of the national census in the Constitution Act of 1867, the first Census of Agriculture was conducted in Manitoba in 1896, with Alberta and Saskatchewan being added in 1901. In 1956 the Census of Agriculture was expanded to the rest of Canada, and at the same time would begin to be conducted concurrently to the Census of Population. Like the Census of Population, the Census of Agriculture shifted from the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture to the Ministry of Trade and Commerce in 1912, and finally to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics (presently Statistics Canada) in 1918. The 2016 Census of Agriculture recorded 193,492 farms and 271,935 farm operators. Data collected from Census of Agriculture The Census of Agriculture, given its interests in presenting a thorough understanding of the entirety of the agricultural sector in Canada, collects a wide variety of data about individual farm operations and operators. Examples of information collected include: Agricultural Operator Data: Number of Operators Age of Operators Gender of Operators Education of Operators Responsibilities of Operators Agricultural Operation Data: Type of operating arrangements Main farm location Size (area) of operation Land use and land tenure Area and type of crops Number and type of livestock Land management practices Market value of land and buildings Number and market value of farm machinery by type Total gross farm receipts Total farm business operating expenses Total number of employees and number of employees paid on a full, part-time or seasonal basis Presence of Direct marketing Succession planning

Xinyi Yuan (; born 1981) is a Chinese mathematician who is currently a professor of mathematics at Peking University working in number theory, arithmetic geometry, and automorphic forms. In particular, his work focuses on arithmetic intersection theory, algebraic dynamics, Diophantine equations and special values of L-functions. Education Yuan is from Macheng, Huanggang, Hubei province, and graduated from Huanggang Middle School in 2000. That year, he received a gold medal at the International Mathematical Olympiad while representing China. Yuan obtained his A.B. in mathematics from Peking University in 2003 and his Ph.D. in mathematics from the Columbia University in 2008 under the direction of Shou-Wu Zhang. His article "Big Line Bundles over Arithmetic Varieties," published in Inventiones Mathematicae, demonstrates a natural sufficient condition for when the orbit under the absolute Galois group is equidistributed. Career He spent time at the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton University, and Harvard University before joining the Berkeley faculty in 2012. Yuan was appointed a Clay Research Fellow for a three-year term from 2008 to 2013. Together with a number of other collaborators, Yuan was profiled in Quanta Magazine and Business Insider for, among other things, his research on L-functions. Yuan left UC Berkeley to become a full professor at Peking University in 2020. Research Together with Shou-Wu Zhang, Yuan proved the averaged Colmez conjecture which was later shown to imply the André–Oort conjecture for Siegel modular varieties by Jacob Tsimerman.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles%20Davies%20%28professor%29
Charles Davies (January 22, 1798 – September 17, 1876) was a professor of mathematics at the United States Military Academy, notable for writing a series of mathematical textbooks. Biography Davies was born in Washington, Connecticut. His father was a County Sheriff or County Judge. During Davies' early years, the family moved to St Lawrence County, New York, where he was educated in local schools. He entered the US Military Academy at West Point in December 1813, through the influence of General Joseph Swift, who had met Davies' father during the War of 1812. Davies had earned praise for the services rendered to General James Wilkinson's army in the Descent of the St. Lawerence during the fall of 1813. Having been brought up on the frontier, Davies had had little formal education, but he had no difficulty in pursuing the courses at the academy. He graduated from the academy in December 1815. He joined the Light Artillery as a Bvt. Second Lieut. on December 11, 1815. He served a year in garrison at New England posts till August 31, 1816, when he was transferred to the Corps of Engineers. He resigned from the Army on December 1, 1816, and took a post as Assistant Professor of Mathematics at West Point. He became a Professor in May 1823. Davies resigned from West Point in May 1837. From 1839 till 1841, he was a professor at Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut, wherein he established a connection with Alfred Smith Barnes for publication of his books. He resigned from this position due to illness. He was reappointed in the army as a paymaster in November 1841, and was the Treasurer at West Point from December 11, 1841, to December 19, 1846. In 1848, he joined the New York University as a Professor of Mathematics and Natural Philosophy. Upon his retirement a year later, he was conferred the degree of Doctor of Law from Geneva College, New York. Davies had chosen to retire to devote more time in writing textbooks. After a brief teaching stint at the Normal School in Albany, New York, he accepted a position at Columbia College, New York City in 1857 and was appointed as emeritus professor in 1865. He died on September 17, 1878. He was engaged with authoring textbooks till his death. He was buried in the family cemetery at Oswegatchie, New York. Works Charles Davies' books were published by A.S. Barnes & Co. His earliest works were translations of French authors. But according to author John H. Lienhard, those books were based only very loosely upon the original French works. Elements of Geometry and Trigonometry (1828), his most popular work, appeared in 33 editions/printings and sold more than 300,000 copies. By 1875, his publisher had sold over 7,000,000 copies of his books and was selling 350,000 copies every year. Mathematical historian Florian Cajori wrote of his books as being "perspicuous, clear, and logically arranged." The following works by Davies were used as textbooks at West Point: Elements of Descriptive Geometry, with Their Ap

This is a list of the main career statistics of Russian former professional tennis player Marat Safin. Historic records and career achievements At the 1998 French Open, Safin shook the tennis world by defeating defending champion Gustavo Kuerten in the second round in 5 sets, taking out the defending champion in his first Grand Slam appearance. He was named ATP Newcomer of the Year by the end of the season. The following year he reached the finals of Paris Masters on his first attempt, losing in the final to reigning world No. 1 Andre Agassi. He set several records in 2000, including some that still stands today. In August, Safin defeated qualifier Harel Levy to win his first Masters Series title at the 2000 Canada Masters, becoming one of the few players in the Open Era to win a Masters tournament on their first attempt. In September, Safin defeated 4-time champion and 4th seed Pete Sampras in the final in straight sets to win his first Grand Slam title at the 2000 US Open. By winning the US Open at the age of 20 years and 228 days, Safin became the 3rd youngest winner in the history of the tournament at the time and the first, and to date, the only Russian to win the title in men's singles. He also became the youngest Russian to win a Grand Slam. After winning his second Masters title of the year at the Paris Masters in November, Safin became the youngest player in the Open Era at the time to reach the World No. 1 ranking at the age of 20 years and 299 days, a record since broken by Lleyton Hewitt in 2001. Safin's total number of titles (7) and finals (9) was the most on the 2000 ATP Tour, and he is also named ATP Most Improved Player. In 2002, Safin reached his first Australian Open final, but was upset by Thomas Johansson, who has never progressed beyond the quarterfinals of a Slam prior to this tournament, in 4 sets after winning the first set. He reached the final at the Hamburg Masters for the second time in 3 years (first being in 2000). Later, he also reached his first French Open semifinal, and almost regained the No. 1 ranking (he was ranked world No. 2 for 13 weeks after the French Open). In November, he won the Paris Masters for a second time, defeating reigning world No. 1 Lleyton Hewitt in straight sets. In December, Safin lead Russia to her first Davis Cup title. The team made Davis Cup history by being the second to win the event after losing the doubles tie-breaker, and being the first team to win a (live-televised) five-set finals match by coming back from a two-set deficit. He won the ATP Fan's Favorite for the record second consecutive time after winning it in 2001, which was later broken by Roger Federer in 2005. After a series of injuries that sidelined him for the majority of the 2003 season, Safin reached his second Australian Open final in 2004, with a win over 1st seed Andy Roddick in the quarterfinals and Andre Agassi in the semifinals, ending Agassi's 26-match win-streak at the Australian Open, however both match

Mathematics, Science, and Arts Academy - East or MSA-East Academy is a magnet K-12 school in St. Gabriel, Louisiana. It is a part of the Iberville Parish School Board. It opened on the ground of six temporary buildings of the St. Gabriel Community Center in August 2008 and moved to permanent quarters in August 2011. it, along with one other school, East Iberville School, also in St. Gabriel, serves the portion of Iberville Parish on the east bank of the Mississippi River, which has fewer residents compared to the west bank. History In 2010, George Grace, then the mayor of St. Gabriel, perceived the district as being malingering in building the school; he told the district that he intended to start a campaign for the City of St. Gabriel to establish its own school district separate from that of the parish. In 2013 St. Gabriel and East Bank residents complained about the district not giving a cafeteria to and instead giving improvements to Mathematics, Science, and Arts Academy - West (MSA West). In a five-year period ending in 2013, around 56% of the students at MSA East and East Iberville performed at or above grade level, and the Louisiana State Department of Education consistently gave both schools "C" ratings. For these reasons, St. Gabriel city officials that year suggested seceding from Iberville schools. Operations the school does not have its own on-site cafeteria but instead gets food trucked from East Iberville's elementary section; Terry L. Jones of The Advocate reported that the school community unsuccessfully campaigned to the district for it to build a cafeteria.. Enrollment this school and East Iberville together had over 60 employees and about 600 students.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erd%C5%91s%E2%80%93Ulam%20problem
In mathematics, the Erdős–Ulam problem asks whether the plane contains a dense set of points whose Euclidean distances are all rational numbers. It is named after Paul Erdős and Stanislaw Ulam. Large point sets with rational distances The Erdős–Anning theorem states that a set of points with integer distances must either be finite or lie on a single line. However, there are other infinite sets of points with rational distances. For instance, on the unit circle, let S be the set of points where is restricted to values that cause to be a rational number. For each such point, both and are themselves both rational, and if and define two points in S, then their distance is the rational number More generally, a circle with radius contains a dense set of points at rational distances to each other if and only if is rational. However, these sets are only dense on their circle, not dense on the whole plane. History and partial results In 1946, Stanislaw Ulam asked whether there exists a set of points at rational distances from each other that forms a dense subset of the Euclidean plane. While the answer to this question is still open, József Solymosi and Frank de Zeeuw showed that the only irreducible algebraic curves that contain infinitely many points at rational distances are lines and circles. Terence Tao and Jafar Shaffaf independently observed that, if the Bombieri–Lang conjecture is true, the same methods would show that there is no infinite dense set of points at rational distances in the plane. Using different methods, Hector Pasten proved that the abc conjecture also implies a negative solution to the Erdős–Ulam problem. Consequences If the Erdős–Ulam problem has a positive solution, it would provide a counterexample to the Bombieri–Lang conjecture and to the abc conjecture. It would also solve Harborth's conjecture, on the existence of drawings of planar graphs in which all distances are integers. If a dense rational-distance set exists, any straight-line drawing of a planar graph could be perturbed by a small amount (without introducing crossings) to use points from this set as its vertices, and then scaled to make the distances integers. However, like the Erdős–Ulam problem, Harborth's conjecture remains unproven. References Arithmetic problems of plane geometry Unsolved problems in mathematics Ulam problem

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open%20Problems%20in%20Mathematics
Open Problems in Mathematics is a book, edited by John Forbes Nash Jr. and Michael Th. Rassias, published in 2016 by Springer (). The book consists of seventeen expository articles, written by outstanding researchers, on some of the central open problems in the field of mathematics. The book also features an Introduction on John Nash: Theorems and Ideas, by Mikhail Leonidovich Gromov. According to the editors’ Preface, each article is devoted to one open problem or a “constellation of related problems”. Choice of problems Nash and Rassias write in the preface of the book that the open problems presented “were chosen for a variety of reasons. Some were chosen for their undoubtable importance and applicability, others because they constitute intriguing curiosities which remain unexplained mysteries on the basis of current knowledge and techniques, and some for more emotional reasons. Additionally, the attribute of a problem having a somewhat vintage flavor was also influential” in their decision process. Table of contents Preface, by John F. Nash Jr. and Michael Th.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belarusians%20in%20Latvia
Belarusians make up Latvia's third largest ethnic group after Latvians and Russians. Number According to 2017 statistics, 69.3 thousands of the inhabitants of Latvia identify themselves as ethnic Belarusians, which is slightly higher than according to the 2011 census (68 202) but still much lower than the numbers for 1989 and 2000. The border regions of Latvia are predominantly inhabited by Belarusians, there is a Belarusian school in Riga and several Belarusian organizations. History According to research by the early 20th century ethnographers Jaŭchim Karski and Mitrafan Doŭnar-Zapolski, the territory of modern Latvia is a home to an autochthonous Belarusian population in southern Latgalia. Daugavpils (, Dzvinsk) and the territory of southern Latgalia were declared part of the Belarusian Democratic Republic in 1918 and the Soviet Socialist Republic of Belarus in 1919 but were then transferred by the bolsheviks to the independent Latvia. After Latvia gained independence, several organizations of the Belarusian minority were established in the country, as well as about 40 Belarusian schools, two Belarusian lyceums, two theatres (in Riga and Daugavpils), a newspaper and several magazines. After the 1934 Latvian coup d'état, the Belarusian education in Latvia began to feel pressure from the officials and was completely shut down by 1940 when the country was occupied by the USSR and later for a few years by Nazi Germany. During the Soviet occupation, Latvia saw an influx of migrants from Belarus. During the Perestroika, new organizations of the Belarusian minority have been established. After the country restored its independence, some ethnic Belarusians left for Belarus.

It is located at the junction of Dera Ismail Khan and Lakki Marwat districts, approximately 25 kilometers towards east on Indus Highway at the town of Pezu. Access to the hill station is difficult due to the poor condition of the unpaved road which is regularly degraded by rainfall during the monsoon period. It has a lot of old monuments.Here live two tribes one of which are mughals and the other are syed. History The name Sheikh Badin originates from name of the sufi saint Sheikh Baha-u-Din Shah, locally famous as Jandō Nekō who is buried at the main cemetery of the village. Traditional folklore describes the famous sufi saint Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gillani came to spend 40 days in recluse at the hill. Jandō Nekō was a descendant of Sufi Saint Sheikh Abdul Qadir Gillani, and came to live here circa 1600 AD in commemoration of his ancestor's recluse on the hill. An annual religious fair, the "Sadra", is held by the devotees of the Syed Tribe in the month of April. Devotees from the nearby districts climb the hill and present gifts to the locals and make recitations and prayers on the graves of the ancient Syeds buried in the village.The second tribe present on the hill are the descendants of mughals which came here after the war of Independence in 1857 and are settled permanently on shiekh badin and nearby villages.The first among mughals to arrive on the hill was the mughal forces general Mirza Imam Baksh Tarbiyat Khan who on the order of aurangzeb fought the Battle of Torna and Battle of rajgarh successfully conquering the maratha fortress. Mahraja Dilip Singh place a bounty of 80 thousand dirhim on Tarbiyat khans head. He lived on shiekh badin for 87 years and at the time of death his age was 160.Tarbiyat khan is buried in the mughal cemetery where tourists often make visits to view the tomb of Tarbiyat Khan and other descendents which have taken part in the war of Independence against Britain.The tribe is now headed by the descendants of Tarbiyat Khan, one of which is named Mirza Iqbal Azam Engr. Rtd from agricultural department of Pakistan , and have control of the most of area of the hill and observe judgment and decision in so called local jirga because the Law and control agencies are mostly inactive in the area due to harsh climate and absence of the possible way up. Climate and Population The hill station is at an average altitude of 1300 meters from sea level. Due to the significant elevation, the climate is less severe compared to surrounding areas and summers are relatively pleasant while winters are harsh and dry. Occasional snowfall is recorded in the months of January

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-basis
In algebra, a p-basis is a generalization of the notion of a separating transcendence basis for a field extension of characteristic p, introduced by . Definition Suppose k is a field of characteristic p and K is a field extension. A p-basis is a set of elements xi of K such that the elements dxi form a basis for the K-vector space ΩK/k of differentials. Examples If K is a finitely generated separable extension of k then a p-basis is the same as a separating transcendence basis. In particular in this case the number of elements of the p-basis is the transcendence degree. If k is a field, x an indeterminate, and K the field generated by all elements x1/pn then the empty set is a p-basis, though the extension is separable and has transcendence degree 1. If K is a degree p extension of k obtained by adjoining a pth root t of an element of k then t is a p-basis, so a p-basis has cardinality 1 while the transcendence degree is 0.

Samantha John (born ) is an American entrepreneur, known for being the co-founder of Hopscotch, a learn-to-code application. Education and Career John studied applied mathematics, English, and comparative literature at Columbia University. John became interested in computers and programming her senior year of college when she began working on a website for a student club. Before developing Hopscotch, she previously worked as an engineer and a developer at Pivotal Labs. She had been one of the only women developers in her company. After partnering with Hopscotch co-founder and fellow Columbia alumna Jocelyn Leavitt, John created her first app named "Daisy the Dinosaur" in 2012. John eventually left her consultancy job to pursue the development of Hopscotch full-time. In 2013, Business Insider listed John as one of the "30 Most Important Women Under 30 in Tech", "Silicon Alley 100", and "28 Extraordinary Women in New York Tech" for cofounding Hopscotch Technologies. Glamour magazine named John and co-founder Leavitt in their list of "35 Women Under 35 Who are Changing the Tech Industry" in 2014. In 2015, she was listed as one of BBC's 100 Women. Hopscotch John created Hopscotch at the age of 26 with educator Jocelyn Leavitt, who noticed a lack women and people of color in engineering. Hopscotch is the first programming language designed for a touch screen device. John and Leavitt aimed to create a programming language that was simple enough for children to use, while still allowing children to learn and be creative. The app involves a visual programming language, rather than employing lines of code. Hopscotch, which is aimed at children ages eight to 12, was downloaded 20,000 times in its first week. They first launched the app for the iPad in 2013, and have since developed the app for the iPhone. Within one year, users created over 2.5 million projects. Most children use the app to build games and create animated artwork while learning programming basics. According to the founders, nearly half of Hopscotch's users are girls. Hopscotch was partially inspired by HyperCard, an early software application and development kit which also inspired the creator of "wiki" software, as well as Scratch, an early visual programming environment. In addition, John notes inspiration from her mentor, Alan Kay. John Revealed in Shark Tank, that Hopscotch had 200k active users every month for the first time in 2020. Hopscotch has received the Best Education Tech App Awards by Parent Magazine.
