We have $m$ people and a set of $n$ elements. Each person chooses $l$ elements out of $n$, independently from each other. What is the probability that each element is chosen at least $k$ times? Let $X_1, \dots X_n$ be the random variables counting how many times each element is chosen. I want to determine the densit...

By definition the Euler's totient function counts the positive integers up to a given integer $n\in \mathbb{N}$ that are relatively prime to $n$. Consequently, if $A = \{1,\cdots, n \}$, then $\phi (n) = | \{ a\in A:(a<n)\land (a\not| n) \} |$. What elements of the set $A$ divide $n$? If $ n = \prod_{i=1}^r p_i^{\alpha...

I am currently working with circular data that exhibits multiple modes, and I've chosen to model this data using the Multimodal Generalized von Mises (MGvM) distribution.

I am a mathematical beginner. As we all know, the graph of a one-dimensional function is a curve, and the graph of a two-dimensional function is a surface.

The function $g\colon (0,\infty)\to \mathbb{R}$, defined by $g(x)=\frac{1}{x}$ sends an open interval to an open interval. The sine function $h\colon \mathbb{R}\to [-1,1]$, $h(x)=\operatorname{sin}x$ is an open map. So I think that the composition $f\colon (0,\infty)\to [-1,1]$ is an open map, but I found a statemen...
Why is the function $f(x) = sin (1/x)$ not an open map?
You already know that $$a_n-a_{n-1}=\left(\frac23\right)^n + n-\left(\frac23\right)^{n-1} - (n-1)=-\frac12\left(\frac23\right)^n+1$$ but, as explained about an answer to a previous question of yours, this is not a recursion relation since the RHS still depends on $n$. To remedy this, introduce $$b_n=a_n-a_{n-1}$$ If on...

I was thinking that an approach could be rewriting the equation by vecot...
I am working on other proofs, namely for so-called "quasi-increasing" but non-monotonic sequences. But, my question: is the following a sufficient definition of non-monotonic? > For all $N \in \mathbb{N}$ where $l>n>m \ge N$ there is $a_n \le a_m$ and $a_l \ge a_m$ Namely, there are always terms with preceding...
Are you sure that is the correct question? [![enter image description here][1]][1] if you look at this picture, I take $f(x)=\frac{3^n-2^n}{3^n+2^n}+\frac{5^n-3^n}{5^n+3^n} - \frac{5^n-2^n}{5^n+2^n}$ and I look for $f(x) \le 0 $ so that satisfy the $\frac{3^n-2^n}{3^n+2^n}+\frac{5^n-3^n}{5^n+3^n} \leq \frac{5^n-...
I've recently become a little obsessed with all the ways limits can be composed - and the preconditions for this to take place. I took $A,B_{1},B_{2},C \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ and $f:A\to B_{1},\ g:B_{2} \to C$ and further assumed $f[A] \subseteq B_{2}$. And then I listed out all the ways to compose $f$ and $g$ with limi...
Is there other elementary proofs that if $m^4 + 4^n$ is prime number then $m$ is odd and $n $ is even?

There is a statement about locally convex spaces in Reed & Simon, Methods of Modern Mathematical Physics (Vol I, Section V.1) that is given without a proof. The statement is: Given two families of seminorms $\{\rho_\alpha\}_{\alpha \in A}$ and $\{d_\beta\}_{\beta \in B}$ over a locally convex space X, if the fami...

Let $H\le G$ be finite and $g\in G$. How large can $gH\cap Hg^{-1}$ be if $gH\ne Hg^{-1}$? Is $\frac{1}{2}|H|<|gH\cap Hg^{-1}|<|H|$ possible?
Another partial answer based on numerical evidence. It is easy to note that your numbers can be written as $$ \frac{a_n}{4^n} $$ where $$ a_n= 1,5,22,91,370,1491,5986,23986,96028,384277,1537438,6150406,\dots\tag{*} $$ After playing a bit with the number one finds: $$ a_1=1;\quad a_n=4a_{n-1}+\xi_n,\tag1 $...
Let $A$ be a abelian group and $B$ a subgroup of $A$. Is $Aut_B(A)\to Aut(A/B)$ surjective? Where $Aut_B(A)=\{\tau\in Aut(A)|\tau(B)=B\}$
