How does the book *Functions of Several Variables* by Wendell Fleming compare to texts like Spivak *Calculus on Manifolds*, Munkres *Analysis on Manifolds*, C.H Edwards *Advanced Calculus of Several Variables*? I know one difference is that Fleming uses Lebesgue integration in his integration chapter. But in terms of...

Given a real number $x>1$ and a natural number $n$, what can we say about the integer part of $x^n$ in terms of $x$ and $n$? For simplicity, let us assume $x<2$. For the first few values of $n$, $\left\lfloor x^n\right\rfloor =1$. But, once it crosses $1$, it starts growing quite rapidly. Is it possible to express $...

Consider the situation where we have two [cubic] Bézier curves with the following properties: - They share one common point (end of curve 1 = start of curve 2) - They have the same direction at the point where they meet (a smooth join) - We suspect that they are likely to be the result of having split a single ...

I understand that the probability of absorbing eventually is one in a simple random walk with a single absorbing boundary.

I have the following question: Let $a\in \mathbf{R}$ sucht that $X = L[a] \cap 2^{\omega}$ is uncountable. Why is $X$ is a $\Sigma_2^1$ set? $L[a]$ is the inner model that can be built by constructibility relative to $a$. Thank you very much for any help in advance.
$x = 2\lambda x^3$ Either $x = 0$ or $\lambda =\frac {1}{2x}$. You have investigated what happens if $\lambda = \frac 1{2x}$ but what about $x = 0?$
So I am studying [this proof of Quillen's theorem](https://mandal.ku.edu/talks/ProjCI.pdf). (page no. 27) Here they say for a commutative ring $A$ we are given $As+At=1$. So we get $as+bt=1$ for some $a,b\in A$. But, in the proof they used for $k\in \mathbb{N}$ and $as^k+bt^k=1$ for some $a,b\in A$ Can any...
I would like to calculate the following expectations of the output of a Neural network. I make the hypothesis that the $E[\beta_i] = 0$ and also I am assuming that the activation $h_j$ is independent of the weights $W_{ij}$. I could write the expectation of the output as follows: $$E\left[ \left( \beta_i + \sum_{j=1...
Let $G$ be a **non-discrete** Lie Group acting on a Riemannian manifold $M$ by its isometries. When $G$ is discrete, there are plenty of literature on Fundamendal Domains (FD), but **a quick literature search shows none on FD when $G$ is not discrete, and is say a Lie Group of manifold dimension at least one**. **Wh...
