H: Evaluating a Gaussian Integral How to prove that $$\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}e^{-\langle Ax,x\rangle}\operatorname{dm}(x)=\left(\frac{\pi^N}{\det A}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}$$ Where $A:\mathbb{R}^{N}\to\mathbb{R}^{N}$ is a symmetric positive-definite linear transformation. My approach: Given a $x\in\mathbb{R}$, one have $$\...
H: An open cover that is not locally finite I could not understand why example $13.4$ is not locally finite. Can you give me an explanation please. AI: An open cover $\mathscr{U}$ of a space $X$ is point-finite if $\{U\in\mathscr{U}:x\in U\}$ is finite for each $x\in X$: each point of $X$ belongs to only finitely man...
H: What is an overlap? I want to ask what an overlap is. My teacher said that for example $1$: Everything is an overlap hence it is not locally finite. For example $2$, it doesnt overlap. Please teach me these two examples. Thanks. AI: There are two families of sets mentioned on that page. One is $\left\{\left(-\fr...
H: How to find the inverse Laplace Transforms? How do you find the inverse Laplace Transform of the following, $$\frac{2 (s^2+4 s+5)^2+40}{(s^2+4 s+5)^2}$$ Separating them into complex coefficients is to long. AI: Let $F(s)$ denote the fraction in the post, hence $F(s)=2+40\frac1{(s^2+4s+5)^2}$. The $2$ part of $F(s)$...
H: Prove that $c^3f(c)+c f(c)\ge1$ Let $f:[0,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ a continuous function that satisfies $\int_0^1 2 x f(x) dx >\pi/2$. I need to prove there is $c\in(0,1)$ such that $c^3f(c)+c f(c)\ge1$. My guess is the mean value theorem. Am I on the right track? AI: Since $$\int_0^1\big(xf(x)-\frac{1}{1+x^2}\bi...
H: Inclusion Exclusion Principle Problem There are 28 people in your family consisting of 18 adults, 13 females, and 11 who have purple hair. There are 11 adult females, 6 of whom sport purple hair. There are 10 adults with purple hair. No female children have purple hair. How many male children without purple ha...
H: Finding two numbers when having their sum and product I have two numbers, their sum is 41 and their product is 238. What are the numbers? I got during this far in my calculations: $a+b=41,\quad ab=238,\quad 238=41-b.$ I appreciate answers or tips to help me complete this. Thanks in advance AI: Your first two equa...
H: Is it true $\operatorname{st}(^\ast A) = \overline{A}$, when $A$ is a bounded subset of $\mathbb{R}$? Given a bounded subset of $\mathbb{R}$, let $\operatorname{st}(^\ast A)$ be the set of the standard parts of all elements in $^\ast$-transform of $A$, $\overline{A}$ is the closure of $A$.Is it true $\operatorname{...
H: Addition in polar form $$u_{1}(t) = 120\sqrt{2}e^{j5000t}$$ $$u_{2}(t) = -j160\sqrt{2}e^{j5000t}$$ I need to add these two values, so: $u(t) = u_{1}(t) + u_{2}(t) = (120 - j160)\sqrt{2}e^{j5000t} = ...$ What next? How can I do this without changing the form of the numbers? AI: Write $120-j160$ in polar form; that i...
H: Question on a French math text by P. Masani I'm trying to translate a paper on matrix-valued functions by P. Masani, published in C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, 249, 1959, p. 873. (see http://temp-share.com/show/FHKd40yi6 for scanned pdf). My specific question is now as follows: On the first page, in the first section aft...
H: Whether the limit on representable functors be non-representable? I'm looking for examples of the following situation: Let $A$ be a complete and cocomplete category, $B$ is a small category and $T\colon B\to\mathbf{Set}^{A^{op}}$ be a functor, such that for any $b\in B$ functor $T(b)$ is representable. Could it be ...
H: Does this proof contain a contradiction? I have made the following proof and I am asking if there is anything wrong in my steps: Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a real analytic function with infinitely many zeros. Let $a\neq 0$ be a real number. We know that the set $f^{-1}(a)$ is discrete. I want to make a bije...
H: Why do we need to find the intersection between these lines? We have the functions $$ x = -1 + 2 \cos(t)$$ $$ y = 3 + 2 \sin(t)$$ They give P's orbit with $t$ on $\left[0, \dfrac{3}{2} \pi\right]$ Find (to 2 decimal places accurate) for which values of t the Point t is left of the line $x=-2.$ So we're allowed to u...
H: Convergence of $\int_0^1 \sqrt[3]{\ln(1/x)} \mathrm{d}x $ Does $$\int_0^1 \sqrt[3]{\ln\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)} \mathrm{d}x$$ converge? WA says it is equal to $\Gamma(4/3)$, however calculating the antiderivative seems approachless to me and can't compare to other functions. I would appreciate any help. Thanks. AI...
