The differential equation for the Legendre polynomials ​ $P_n(x)$ is given by: $(1 - x^2) \frac{d^2P_n}{dx^2} - 2x \frac{dP_n}{dx} + n(n + 1)P_n = 0$. Now I want to prove that $\begin{equation} \int_{-1}^{1} P_l(x) P_m (x) = \dfrac{2}{2l+1} \delta_{lm} \end{equation} $. It's possible to prove the orthogonal rela...

I remember loosely that I saw somewhere a space notation $C_{\to0}^0(\mathbb R^n)$ for the space of all continuous function that vanishes at infinity. But I can't find a reference. Does anyone know a textbook that use this notation?
I'll assume you already know or have established that $\sim$ is in fact an equivalence relation. Assume $\phi(t)=\phi(s)$. To prove injectivity, we need to prove $t=s$. By the definition of $\phi$, we have that $[(t, 1)]=[(s, 1)]$. By the definition of an equivalence class, this tells us that $(t, 1) \sim (s, 1...

We are all familiar with the regular Pythagorean theorem of $a^2+b^2=c^2$ where $a$ and $b$ are legs of a right triangle and $c$ is the hypotenuse. This formula can be visualized as turning each side of the triangle into a square and then saying the sum of the squares corresponding to the legs is equal to the square co...
Generalizing Pythagorean Theorem to regular n-gon / semicircles extension?
This is what i got so far. Case 1: one person get 3 jobs and everybody else (4 people left) get 1 job. And there are 5 ways to pick a person to assign 3 jobs $\binom{7}{3} \cdot 4!\cdot 5 = 4200$ Case 2: two people get 2 jobs and everybody else (3 people left) get 1 job.

I have a function f(n) defined over the set of natural numbers, where each input n corresponds to a unique output f(n), ensuring that the function's values are distinct. I am trying to prove that the set of outputs of this function must contain a power of 2 somewhere. Intuitively, it seems plausible, as the set of n...

Almost every programs consider $\frac{1}{0}$ as $+\infty$ and $-\frac{1}{0}$ as $-\infty$ according to the IEEE 754 floating-point standard. Thus $\pm\infty\cdot 0=\pm\frac{1}{0}\cdot 0=\pm\frac{0}{0}=\text{NaN} $. Some programs also consider $\log(0)$ as $-\infty$ according to: $$ \lim_{x\to 0^+}\log(x)=-\infty $$...

For two (say continuous) function $f,g\in C(\mathbb R^n)$, let us define \begin{equation} f\ast g(x):=\lim_{R\to+\infty}\int_{B^n(0,R)}f(x-y)g(y)dy, \end{equation} whenever the integral converges. It is clear that under such definition the convolution can be non-associative (e.g. [this post][1]). Indeed by taki...

Let $P = \mathbb{R}^2 \setminus \{(0,0)\}$.

To my understanding, rigorously speaking, probability for real-valued random variables or random vectors ($n$-tuples of real numbers) is defined only for $\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ (the Borel subsets of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$), i.e. probability (for random vectors) is, by definition, strictly a function $\mathsf{P} : \mat...

Suppose I have a sequence of i.i.d. random variables $X_1, X_2, \dots$ with positive mean $E[X_1] = \mu$. Is the function $$f(n) = \Pr( X_1 + X_2 + \dots + X_n \leq A) $$ monotonically non-increasing in $n$ (perhaps for $n$ large enough)? Intuitively, I think this should be the case. By the law of large numbers,...

I have a doubt regarding the use of the Bolzano-Weierstrass theorem in a dynamic optimization problem. Exactly, the problem is the neoclassical growth model (or Ramsey model).

I am unsure if this belongs to math or philosophy. Let's say there's 0-dimensional space, however multiple objects exist within in, occupying the same "spot".

Consider two vector spaces $\mathbb{C}^n$ and $\mathbb{C}^m$, where $0<n<m<\infty$.

For the multi-variable Riemann integral (specifically, integrating functions $f : \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ over subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$), the most common treatment (see footnote below) seems to be defining the integral in terms of *rectangular* partitions of the domain of integration (partition composed o...

For example if we have 22 people and we want to distribute them into two groups there are $\binom{22}{11}/2$ possibilities.

(I've been self-learning differential geometry for some time now, and math.stackexchange has been of sooo much help, that I thought I might get my answer here.) From Lee's "Introduction to Riemannian manifolds", the shape operator $s$ of a hypersurface is the Weingarten map, which is defined as $(\tilde{\nabla}_X N)...
In $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, we consider an orthonormal basis $e_0,\dots,e_n$ and $\alpha_0,\dots,\alpha_n$ its dual basis. Then, the determinant is $\alpha_0 \wedge \cdots \wedge \alpha_n$. I am seeking a contracted formula for $$ \sum_{\sigma \in \Sigma_{n}} |\sigma|\det(e_0,v_{\sigma(1)},\dots,v_{\sigma(n)}) $$ In ter...
> Let $L \to M$ be a complex line bundle over a smooth manifold $M$. Let $\{U_\alpha\}$ be a trivializing open cover with transition maps $z_{\alpha\beta}:U_\alpha \cap U_\beta \to \Bbb C^* = \text{GL}(1,\Bbb C)$. The bundle of endomorphisms of $L$, $\text{End}(L) \cong L^* \otimes L$ is trivial since it can be defined...
[Here][1], the Ramanujan Master Theorem is proven in the following way: $$ \int_0^\infty\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^n}{n!} \lambda(n)x^n = \int_0^\infty\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{(-1)^n}{n!} E^n\lambda(0)x^n = \int_0^\infty x^{s-1}e^{-Ex}dx \;\lambda(0) = \frac{\Gamma(s)}{E^s}\lambda(0) = \Gamma(s)\lambda(-s).$$ Th...
**Problem definition** Consider a dataset composed by $m$ bivariate measurements \begin{equation*} y_j \sim \mathcal{U}(\mathcal{E}(\ell_1,\ell_2,\theta)) \qquad j=1,2,\dots,m \end{equation*} uniformly distributed over an ellipse centered in the origin, with semilength $\ell_1$, semiwidth $\ell_2<\ell_1$ and or...
