I have to find the splitting field of the following in $\mathbb{Q}$: a) $f(x) = x^6 + 1 $ b) $f(x) = (x^2-3)(x^3+1) $ For a), finding the 6th roots of -1, I concluded that $\pm i, \frac{\pm \sqrt{3} \pm i}{2}$ should be in the splitting field. The minimum adjoined splitting field is thus $\mathbb{Q}[\sqrt{3},i...
Problem : Let : $$\frac{\Gamma(x+1)}{(x+x^2)}=f(x),x>0$$ Then let $A=\sqrt{\frac{\pi}{4}}-1$ And $y$ be the global minimum over $x\in (0,\infty)$ of $f(x)$ then it seems we have : $$2+A-A^4-30A^6-103A^8-76A^{10}-23A^{12}-22A^{14}-3A^{16}-\cdots=y$$ I cannot pursue it because of the floating point in comp...
Your sum has a slight mistake. It should be $$w_n = \sum_{i=0}^n \sum_{j=0}^i\sum_{k=0}^j \binom{n}{i}\binom{i}{j}\binom{j}{k}$$ Can you see why? ---------- Solving: $$\begin{align} w_n &= \sum_{i=0}^n \sum_{j=0}^i\sum_{k=0}^j \binom{n}{i}\binom{i}{j}\binom{j}{k} \\ &= \sum_{i=0}^n \sum_{j=0}^i \binom{n}{...
To prove this i was thinking to start by supposing that $f(x_1)=f(x_2)$ this implies that $(sin(x_1),cos(x_1),x_1^2 ) = (sin(x_2),cos(x_2),x_2^2)$.This gives us that,$ sin(x_1)=sin(x_2) \Rightleftarrow x_1=x_2 .$ $ cos(x_1)=cos(x_2) \Rightleftarrow x_1=x_2 $ and $ x_1^2=x_2^2 \Rightleftarrow x_1=x_2.$ Is this corre...

Let $f,g:\mathbb R^n\to\mathbb C$ be two Lebesgue measurable functions. Thus $(x,y)\mapsto f(x-y)g(y)$ is also a mesaurable function.

This is a nice discovery! But why does it work? Let $n^2$ and $(n+1)^2$ be two consecutive squares. If you factor $(n+1)^2$, you will get $n^2+2n+1$. $(n^2+2n+1)-(n^2)=2n+1$. This means the difference between consecutive squares is always the odd numbers. Now, we can say that $((n+2)^2-(n+1)^2)-((n+1)^2-n^2)=(2(n+...

Because $a-c = (d-b)W$. The left hand side is rational so the right hand side must be rational. But $W$ is irrational and the *only* wa...

I tried to imagine 2 more scenarios and answer them to get a good intuition on the matter , I may be wrong and I would love nothing more than to be corrected , case 1: if $$T(x)^2=0$$ does $$T(x)=0$$ have to be zero as well , I went and started with the thinking if there is a case where this is not true could not th...
So I'm currently learning continuum mechanics and I am a bit confused about my course notes introducing first order transformation rules.

First, we observe that among first countable spaces, every compact is sequentially compact: https://topology.pi-base.org/spaces/?q=First+Countable%2BCompact%2B%7ESequentially+Compact But the converse fails: https://topology.pi-base.org/spaces/?q=First+Countable%2B%7ECompact%2BSequentially+Compact The particular coun...

Be wary not to confuse this post with [this one](https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/3046393/is-a-monotone-class-which-is-closed-under-complements-and-finite-disjoint-unions). In this case, $M$ is simply a subset of the power set of $X$. >Let $X$ be a set and $M$ be a nonempty collection of subsets of $X$. Is ...
Subset of $X$ closed under countable disjoint unions and complements a $\sigma$-algebra?
Let $\{a_i\}_{i\in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of positive real numbers, whose series converges i.e. $\sum\limits_{i\in \mathbb{N}}a_i = a < \infty.$ Does this imply the convergence of the double series $\sum\limits_{i,j \in \mathbb{N}}a_i a_j?$ If yes, how can this be proven? If not, what are some counterexamples? ...

Locally $p-$integrable function on an open set that satisfies additional condition must be $0$ almost everywhere on the open set?
I'm reading Category Theory in context and I got a bit confused by problem 2.1.ii. The problem is as follows: > Prove that if $F: C \rightarrow \text{Set}$ is representable, then $F$ preserves monomorphisms, i.e., sends every monomorphism in $C$ to an injective function. Use the contrapositive to find a covariant s...
Covariant representable functors preserve monomorphisms. What about contravariant representable functors??
While reading about Sylvester–Gallai theorem, I got the simple proof of the theorem using Induction. Statement: *Given a finite set of points in Euclidian space such that any line passing through two of the points passes through at least one more of them, all points have to be collinear.* Proof Let n be...
Let $L$ be the (holomorphic) line bundle on $\mathbb{P}^1$ for which the glueing function from $\mathbb{P}^1\setminus \{\infty\}$ to $\mathbb{P}^1\setminus \{0\}$ on the overlap $\mathbb{C}^\times = \mathbb{P}^1\setminus \{0,\infty\}$ is given by multiplication with $g(z) = \exp(1/z)$. A global (holomorphic) sectio...
I'm going through problems in chapter one of Elementary Calculus: An Infinitesimal Approach by H. Jerome Keisler. I need some help with question 39 in Section 1.5 problems. $\epsilon$, $\delta$ are positive infinitesimal, is the following expression infinitesimal, finite, or infite? The expression is this: ...
