This is question will be about the theorem behind an efficient algorithm, which has been [used][1] in LeetCode problem [3086][2]. Let me start by exposing the problem in a friendly way: You are a bus driver who will pick rockers from the Rock'n Rio festival and take them to a car parking lot, were each rocker will p...
Let $\mathcal{B}$ be an ordered basis for a vector space $V$ of dimension $n$. Denote the basis for the set of anti symmetric tensors ($\Lambda^{p}{V}$) by $\mathcal{B}^{p}$. For $n=3$, let $A=\left( a^{i}_{j} \right )$ be the matrix of the linear map $f: V \to V$ with respect to the basis $\mathcal{B}$. Describe the m...
I am struggling to prove the following statement: Let $p, q$ be coprime numbers. For all $n \in \mathbb{N}^*$, we define $t_n$ as the order of $[q]$ in $(\mathbb{Z}/{p^n}\mathbb{Z})^\ast$. Show that $(t_{n+1}/t_{n})$ is stationary. I managed to reduce the problem: let $p = \Pi_{i=1}^m p_i ^{\alpha_i}$ (prime fact...

I am sorry, but I do not know how to search this. I apologize in advance. Assume I have a set $X$ and a map $f:X\rightarrow X$; there are $n$ elements $x_1,... x_n\in X$ such that $f(x_k)=x_{k+1}$ and $f(x_n)=x_1$. Does this property have a name?
I know that the serie $\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} \dfrac{(-1)^n}{4n-3}$ is convergent by Leibniz's law. However, finding the exact sum of this series can be quite challenging.

For any 2D closed shape, is there always a point and angle for which the billiard movement of a ball fully completes the interior of the shape? In other words, does the path eventually converge to the full figure? For example, will the moose be completely filled? [![enter image description here][1]][1] If not,...

Suppose I have two sequences $a_n$ and $b_n$. They both start from a very high number say $25000$ and converges to zero. If I plot them in one plot, as they start from a very large number, the plot looks like as if $a_n \approx b_n \approx 0$. But if we look closely, the difference between them is around $2$ or $3$...

Let $f : X \to Y$ be a morphism of complex affine varieties. Denote the coordinate rings of $X$ and $Y$ by $\mathbb{C}[X]$ and $\mathbb{C}[Y]$ respectively.

Let $w$ be from $\mathbb{C}$ with $|w| = 1$. I need to show that there exists exactly one $t$ from $[0,2\pi)$ such that $w = e^{it}$. My approach would be to rewrite $w$ as $a+bi$ and $e^{it}$ as $\cos(t) + i \sin(t)$, and then set up two equations so that $a = \cos(t)$ and $b = \sin(t)$ and then argue with the inve...

Suppose that $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ is symmetric positive definite.

Let's start from your definition. 1. $\mathbf{GL}_n(\mathbb{R})$ being closed in itself, it is a matrix group; no need to embed it somewhere.

How to distinguish faces of a polytope from internal sections?
I have the following stochastic process represented by $$S_t = 1+\int_0^t \exp\left(\sigma B_s - \sigma^2\frac{s}{2}\right)\,dB_s\,,$$ where $B_t$ is a standard Brownian motion. I would like to compute its expectations. I thought I could do it in two ways: $(1)$ using the fact that expectation of Ito integral is ...
Consider the first-order non-linear difference equation: \begin{equation} k_{t+1} = sf(k_t) + (1-\delta)k_t \end{equation} where $s$ and $\delta$ are two constants and $s,\delta \in (0,1)$. I assume that $f: \mathbb{R}_+ \to \mathbb{R}_+$ is twice continuously differentiable and $f'(k)>0$ and $f''(k)<0$ for all $k...
**Problem**: A circle is circumscribed about a triangle formed by joining three points taken at random in the surface of a circumscriptible polygon of $n$ sides, find the chance that the circle lies wholly within the polygon. **Solution**: Let $ABCDEF$... be the polygon, $PGR$ the triangle formed by joining th...
My book<sup>1</sup> says: Let K be the set of real numbers that are sums of the series of the form $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{a_k}{3^k}$ with ${a_k} \in \{0, 2\}$. I can see that sum where ${a_k}=0$ goes to $0$: $$\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{0}{3^k} = \frac{0}{3^1}+\frac{0}{3^2}+\frac{0}{3^3}+\frac{0}{3^4}.... = 0$$ ...
I tried solving this problem and I got into a nice way, sadly I think I might be wrong. What I thought of doing is separating (0/1)H:MM and 2H:MM from each other while calculating While calculating (0/1)H:MM I came to this calculation: 2 * 9 * 4 * 7 = 588 2 - for two options 9 - for one less option (0 to 9...
Can someone help me to see where the problem of the functional derivative below is? **Minimize the functional:** $$ F[p(\hat{x}|x)] = I(X; \hat{X}) + \beta \sum_{x \in X}\sum_{\hat{x} \in \hat{X}} p(x,\hat{x})d(x,\hat{x}) $$ **Subject to the constraint:** $$ \sum_{\hat{x} \in \hat{X}} p(\hat{x}|x) = 1 \quad \te...
I am attending a introductory model theory course this semester. The professor started talking about formulas and sentences without paying much attention to the formalism of the syntax. However, as the course progressed, I began to notice that we need to put the formulas in a set because Zorn's lemma is needed to prove...
