I am reading "Analysis on Manifolds" by James R. Munkres. >Definition. Let $k\leq n$. Let $A$ be open in $\mathbb{R}^k$, and let $\alpha:A\to\mathbb{R}^n$ be a map of class $C^r (r\geq 1)$. The set $Y=\alpha(A)$, together with the map $\alpha$, constitute what is called parametrized-manifold, of dimension $k$. We de...

Is there a way to apply an operator that would cancel all terms except for one associated with a particular n? My goal is to extract $g_n(x)$....

$n=10x+y. 13|n \iff 13|(x+4y)?$ $(40x+4y)-(x+4y)=39x$ $(x+4y)+39x=4(10x+y)$ If a prime divides two numbers, it divides their sum and their difference. IF $13|(x+4y)$ and $13|39x$, so $13|4(10x+y)$. Since $13\not|4 \implies 13|10x+y$ By similar reasoning, one can prove the other direction .

Consider the question >Let $f:\mathbb N \to \mathbb R$ satisfy $f(mr)<f(r)$ for all $m,r\in \mathbb N$, $m>1$. Is $f(k)$ decreasing for all $k>k_0$ for some $k_0$? The answer is clearly no as we have the following counterexample $$f(n)=\begin{cases} 1/n & \text{when $n$ is even}\\ 2/n & \text{when $n$ is odd} \...
Now we have several independent and identically distributed random variables following the uniform distribution on the interval [0, 1].They are denoted as $x_1, x_2, x_3, ..., x_m$ and $y_1, y_2, ..., y_n$ respectively.Let $$ D_{i,j} = \begin{cases} x_i-y_j, & x_i\ge y_j \\\\ 1+x_i-y_j, & x_i<y_j \end{cases} $...
I recently learned about hypercomplex systems that are taken over the reals, i.e. the dual numbers for which $j^2=1$, $j≠1$, and the dual numbers for which $ε^2=0$, $ε≠0$. These number systems, along with the complex numbers, have some nice properties, namely they represent all the possibilities for 2-dimensional unit...
At the end of pg 65 of Milne's ANT notes (https://www.jmilne.org/math/CourseNotes/ANT.pdf), he claimed $X^4+X^3+X^2+X+1\equiv (X+4)^4$ (mod 5) to be obvious. I understand that LHS is Eisenstein at 5 by substituting $X=Y-1$, and that if $f$ is Eisenstein at $p$, then $p$ ramifies totally in $\mathbb{Q}[\alpha]$ for $\al...
To denote a triangle we write $\triangle ABC$. How about a circular sector with $O$ at the center of the circle and with the arc $AB$. Is there a standard way such as $\lhd OAB$ where $\lhd$ has a round end?
In this [other question](https://math.stackexchange.com/q/4838311/909869) I found an approximation as follows: $$\ln(x+1) \approx \dfrac{\ln(x)}{1-x^{-\frac{1}{\ln(2)}}}$$ By differentiating both sides, since just one logarithmic terms remains you could find the following approximation: $$\ln(x)\approx \dfrac{\ln(2...
How the inequality given below $$\left(p+\frac{2-p^2}{r}\right)^2<2$$ will eventually be simplified to the inequality $$2pr+2-p^2<r^2$$ I got the reference from this quora [Link](https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-explain-in-simple-easy-steps-the-reason-why-Walter-Rudin-chose-q-p-p-2-2-p-2-in-his-book-Principles-of-Mat...
