It's been more than a year I'm in touch with iterations of functions. A lot of my posts are about it. The problem being, it's not really a mathematical topic that gets a lot discussed, in books or in mathematical channels on YouTube (where all of my non - school/post high-school mathematical knowledge is from). So...
The result can be derived from the theorem below on surface integrals, by setting the integrand function $f$ to unity. I have used the following conventions below : 1.

Firstly, we consider this problem $I(a)=\int_{0}^{\pi/2}\frac{arctan(asin(x))}{sin(x)}dx$ In general, after implementing the above technique, we get: $I(a) = \frac{\pi \ln(a+\sqrt{a^2+1})}{2}+C$ I've seen quite a few people use $I(0)=0$ and then use Newton to derive $I(a)$. But it's clear that that's only tru...

We fix a finite group $G$ of order $n$. **(1) Does $G$ act transitively on a set $\Omega$ of size $n$?** The answer is **yes**, and the reason is already found in the standard proof of Cayley's theorem, which considers the the action of $G$ on itself (so $\Omega = G$) via $$g \bul...
I was reading this [answer](https://math.stackexchange.com/a/125208/48606) to the question of the division by zero which proposes the idea of "warped" numbers. So, am I correct, the following rules could be a definition of division by zero: Let: * $\infty_w$ be a type of infinity with the properties below. * $Q...
Let $n \ge 1$ and R be a unital $\mathbb{R}$-subalgebra of $M_n(\mathbb{R})$. If $A \in R \cap GL_n(\mathbb{R})$, is there any criteria to guarantee that its inverse is also in R? Since R is a vector space over the reals, this can be simplified to finding out when the adjugate of A remains in R. I initially expecte...
