[![enter image description here][1]][1] I was looking over this proof in Atkinson’s Numerical Analysis 2nd Edition and I am having a hard time seeing where 2.3.5 is coming from. What is Atkinson trying to show with 2.3.5 and the line below? Thank you! [1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/WranV.jpg

Given two alphabets $A=\{a_1, a_2, ..., a_n\}$ and $B=\{b_1, b_2, b_3, ..., b_m\}$, what is the maximum average compression ratio possible to achieve by bijectively encoding strings of B using strings of A? I guess it is trivially $\frac{|A|}{|B|}$, but I wouldn't be sure how to prove that. Then, given a new set ...

Let $H$ be a commutative and cocommutative Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field $k$. I've read that if $H$ is _grouplike_ in the sense that it has no nonzero primitive elements, then $H$ is isomorphic to the group ring on its grouplike elements,but no reference or proof was given. What is a proof of this ...
Grouplike Hopf algebras are group rings?

What is the limit (as a distribution) of this Fourier series, similar to that of a Dirac Delta?
In proposition 2.7 the map $\tau$ has values in $C^\infty (M)$. But the curvature tensor is a map $\mathfrak{X}(M)^3 \to \mathfrak{X}(M)$ as you have defined it. Therefore you can not apply proposition 2.7 in the way you want to. To apply proposition 2.7 we first need to transform the Riemann "Tensor" (note that ...
When Shapiro says that the polynomials "span" a set $B$ "in" a topology, of course he means that the *closure* of the set of polynomials in *that* topology is $B$. I make this somewhat pedantic point only to emphasize that there is nothing counterintuitive about potentially getting different things when one computes th...

I begin by an example showing that the solutions of $$AL+L^T=0\tag{1}$$ can depend on parameters. Let us take $$A=\pmatrix{1&0&0\\0&1&1\\0&0&-1}$$ then the general solution of (1) is : $$L=\pmatrix{0&a&0\\-a&b&-2b\\0&-2b&4b}$$ How such solutions can be obtained ? By the following method : Begi...
# 1D basis functions In 1D space, I'm looking for a set of [basis functions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_function) like below. They would be equal to one at certain points and zero at others. [![Schematic 1D][1]][1] ## 2D schematics In 2D space, the basis function could be something below, taken fro...
A problem in _Complex Numbers_ (Andreescu, Andrica) > Let us solve the equation $z^3 = 18 + 26i$, where $z = x + yi$ and $x$, $y$ are integers.<br><br> We can write $(x + yi)^3 = (x + yi)^2 \times (x + yi)$ = $(x^2 − y^2 + 2xyi)(x + yi) = (x^3 − 3xy^2) + (3x^2y − y^3)i = 18 + 26i$ <br><br> Using the definition ...
Why is this particular substitution made? ($y=tx$)
The following result holds true: > For a real function $f:\mathbb{R}^2 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ we have that $\inf_{x,y} F(x,y)\leq \inf_x (\inf_y F(x,y)) $. My question is on whether or not it is possible to provide an example where we have strict inequality? If so, I would be interested in seeing an example. I...
Suppose you have a hemispherical bowl that is open at the top. You tilt the bowl by an angle $\theta$ in any direction. Then you fill it with water till the water surface reaches the lowest point on the rim of the bowl. If the radius of the bowl is $R$, what is the volume $V$ of water as a function of $\theta$? *...
Let $A(a_1, a_2, a_3), B(b_1, b_2, b_3), C(c_1, c_2, c_3), D(d_1, d_2, d_3), E(e_1, e_2, e_3), F(f_1, f_2, f_3)$ in the 3d system of coordinates. What is the conditiones to have the plane $(ABC) $ and $(DEF) $ perpendicular?
