Determine whether the series $\sum_{k=2}^{\infty}\frac{1}{k(\ln{k})(\ln{(\ln{k}}))}$ converges or diverges without the use of an integral test. I know that $\sum_{k=2}^{\infty}\frac{1}{k\ln{k}}$ diverges and that $k(\ln{k})(\ln{\ln{k}})\geq k\ln{k}$ when $k\geq e^e$. However, showing the reciprocal does not prove anyth... |
>Consider a circle where $50$ people are, all of different ages. We can create a minimal pair out of two people X and Y. X and Y are not sitting next to each other, and they form two arcs on the circle of the people between them. They satisfy the conditions for a minimal pair if in at least one of the arcs, everybody ... |
Problem 4, Chapter 9 in "Special Functions and Their Applications" (N.N. Lebedev)is to show that
$$w(z,t)=(1-t)^{\beta -\gamma }
(1-t+z t)^{-\beta }=\sum
_{n=0}^{\infty } \frac{(\gamma)
_n \, _2F_1(-n,\beta ;\gamma
;z) t^n}{n!}$$ $| t| <\min \left\{1,\frac{1}{|

I am reading complex analysis by Gamelin and I am having trouble understanding the square root function.
The principal branch of $\sqrt{z}$ is $f_1(z)$ is defined as $|z|^{\frac 1 2} e^{\frac{i \operatorname{Arg}(z)}{2}}$ for $z \in \mathbb{C} - (-\infty,0]$ and $f_2(z)$ is defined as $-f_1(z)$
By this defini... |
A compact set A is defined st given a cover of open sets of A, there exist a finte subcover with elements in that original cover. And so A is defined as a finite union of open sets, and so A should be open (def of a topological space, the intersection of two opens is open itself). By heine borel, in R^n a compact set i... |
How can a compact set on R^2 be closed (heine borel), when by definition a compact set has to be finitely covered by open sets? |
How can a compact set on R^n be closed (heine borel), when by definition a compact set has to be finitely covered by open sets? |
The version of Hall's Marriage Theorem I'd like to consider is the following:
---
**Theorem** Let $G$ be a finite bipartite graph with bipartition $\{X,Y\}$ and edge set $E$, so that we can view $E$ as a relation from $X$ to $Y$. Suppose that, for all $S \subseteq X$,
$$\lvert \{y \in Y : \exists x \in S (xEy)\}... |
Can Hall's Marriage Theorem be reduced to the $d$-regular case? |
Is (Q,+) elementary equivalent to (R,+)? |
