i think you divide by 3?
by 3! no?
what? i said 3 not 3!
I am saying it should be divided by 3!
how did you get 3! tho
you make 3 picks ABC, but I didn't account that the order doesn't matter and there's 3! ways to permute ABC

Does anyone have any idea how I can approach this exercise? The $T$-annihilator of $v_1$ is the polynomial $q(t)$ of least degree such that $q(T)(v_1) = 0$.\
Here's a useful fact. Let $K_{\phi_1}$ be the space of all vectors $x\in V$ such that $(\phi_1(T))^p(x)=0$ for some positive integer $p$. Then the $T$-annihilator of a nonzero vector in $K_{\phi_1}$ is $(\phi_1(t))^q$ for some positive integer $q$, and the $T$-annihilator divides the minimal and characteristic polynomial. Yet I don't see how I can prove the existence of $v_1$ such that $\phi_1(t)$ is the $T$-annihilator, given the characteristic polynomial in the exercise.
psie
@inland patio Has your question been resolved?
What's ur definition of a T-annihilator?
see second sentence here 🙂 @wheat nymph
O sry I just saw
I'm pretty sure I can generalize ur fact tho
It doesn't have to just be powers of monic irreducibles
what does it refer to now? 🙂
In general the T-annihilator should just divide the min poly, and hence the char poly
right 👍 it doesn't need to be irreducible
What is $\beta_v$ ?
Herzog
Yes, sorry. Though I haven't reached that part yet, $\beta_v$ is the $T$-cyclic basis generated by $v$. So ${v, T(v), T^2(v),\ldots,T^{n-1}(v)}$.
psie
your comment is correct, however, for the space $K_\phi$ that I defined above, the $T$-annihilator is indeed of the form $(\phi(t))^p$ for some positive integer $p$.
psie
yeah
i think u first should show that $f$ is also the min poly of $T$, and then prove that the $\ker\phi_i$ are nontrivial
Bob the Builder
Ok, makes sense. So I know that the minimal polynomial and the characteristic polynomial share the same monic, irreducible factors. So except for $(-1)^n$ perhaps, the minimal polynomial is $\phi_1(t)\phi_2(t)$. However, I don't think I understand your second hint. Why are we interested in the null spaces of $\phi_i(T)$?
psie
u can deduce from ur useful fact that if $v \in \ker \phi(T)$, then $v$ has $T$-annihilator $\phi(t)$
Bob the Builder
ofc $v \neq 0$ as well
Bob the Builder
Hmm, from my useful fact we have that the $T$-annihilator is $(\phi(t))^p$ for some positive integer $p$. The thing is, I don't see how to exclude the case $p>1$. You see, if $p>1$, then it can still divide the minimal polynomial, the quotient will simply be $0$ though.
psie
oic what u mean
maybe ill edit this fact to be that if $f(T)v=0$, then the $T$-annihilator of $v$ divides $f$ (alternatively, u could have defined the $T$-annihilator to be the monic poly of largest degree with this property)
Bob the Builder
so if $v \in \ker \phi_i(T)\setminus{0}$, then as $\phi_i$ is irreducible, u can use this property
Bob the Builder
ok, makes sense. So $v\in\ker\phi_i(T)\setminus{0}$ forces $\phi_i(t)$ to be the $T$-annihilator since it is irreducible, i.e. there is no polynomial $q(t)$ of smaller degree such that $q(T)(v)=0$ (for if there would be, then it would divide $\phi_i(t)$, impossible). I feel like I'm close now. I only need to show $\ker\phi_i(T)$ is nontrivial.
psie
Do you think I could argue by contradiction in establishing that $\ker\phi_i(T)$ is nontrivial? Suppose it is trivial, i.e. ${0}$. Then $\phi_i(T)$ are both one-to-one, and so is $\phi_1(T)\phi_2(T)$. But then this possibly can't be minimal polynomial, contradiction.
psie
The characteristic polynomial of a linear operator T on an n -dimensional vector space V is always a monic polynomial of degree n. If the quotient of the minimal polynomial is zero, this implies that the characteristic polynomial is degree 0. The problem asks for vectors ( v_1, v_2 \in V ) with specific T-annihilators. If ( V = {0} ), the only vector is 0, whose T-annihilator is the zero polynomial, which is not irreducible or monic
a guy with no beard
ok, when you say the quotient of the minimal polynomial, do you mean c(t)/m(t) = q(t), where c(t) is the characteristic polynomial and m(t) the minimal polynomial?
Yes, if c(t) is zero, then p can be > 1. But it makes no sense in the context of this problem

$\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{1-cos(\pi xy)+sin(\pi (x^2+y^2))}{x^2+y^2}$
prograce
$\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} \frac{sin(\pi (x^2+y^2)}{x^2+y^2} +\frac{1-cos(\pi xy)}{x^2+y^2}$
prograce
Does that help?
I think for sin(pi * (x^2 + y^2))/(x^2 + y^2) you could substitute u = x^2+y^2
Yes I thought so too
the first seems to be pi and second term 0
the 1 bothers me for the second expression
gotta check tho
How did you do it for second term
wait for the second one you can fix x = 0 then it is equal to lim y -> 0 (1-cos(0))/y^2? I dont really know but maybe?
1-cos(2A)=2sin^2(A). changing em to polar coordinates help
U get the $\lim_{(t) \to (0)} \frac{1-cos(t)}{t}$
Kokkeeng
Hm this doesn't give much, when you substitute values usually ur looking to show theres no limit
there was an "i dont really know" there
What about the pi ?
subsitute everything with t
Can't do that because denominator is different
I mean the term is "homogenous" but yea like u said i could change to polar coordinates but idk what to do with the 1 in the numerator
Maybe i could use this
let x = rcos(theta) and y = rsin(theta)
osccilating nature will make this much easier
$t=\pi r^2 \cos\theta \sin\theta \newline \lim_{r \to 0} \frac{1 - \cos(\pi r^2 \cos\theta \sin\theta)}{r^2} {=} \pi \cos\theta \sin\theta \cdot \lim_{t\to 0} \frac{1-\cos t}{t} = 0$
Kokkeeng
Is this right?
I think u could just say 1 - cos(pi r^2 sin(theta) cos(theta)) approaches 0, as sin(theta)cos(theta) doesn't approach anything because of it's osccilating nature, thus the final limit will be lim of r -> 0 of sin(r^2 pi )/ r^2, which wil approach pi.
so pi will be the final answer
I did the same thing basically but after substituting the 1-cos(theta) with the identity... is it still fine ? I think so no?
I proved it approaches 0 (not osicciltates) in the red colored writing using sandwich thm and changing to polar coordinates for the term on the right side
Yeah it's fine I think

i have abs no idea what to. do
It's basically base 3
What is the biggest number (a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h) that is less than 2010?
They couldn’t write this problem in a more confusing way lol
Exactly right
Wait forget this
First step translate 2010 into base 3
Notice that you have to use 2187 because if you don’t you can never get to 2010 (even if you add all the others together you are less than 2010)
yes
Translate 2010 into base 3
Oh if they know base 3 that makes way more sense okay
u would need trail and error that way
Just translate it into base 3 first
u just divide it as much as possible
We will guide u after u send the translated number
and like reverse remainder
Ye
Yeah base 3 is more systematic and reliable
could u explain the concept, i dont have anything on me that can help with translation
This?
Huh
0112022
wait but how do u know to just use base 3 when u see this question
is it reversed
Correct
Yes
Ok, it says we can use the numbers at most one time right?
So, what can we do if we have the digit 2?
Ex : the 2 at the front corresponds to 2 x 729
Expressing 2010 as a sum of a b c d e f g and h
yes but like how are you planning on doing it (not the solution)
Ok, is 2 x 729 = 2187 - 729?
yes
Note that 2187 = 3 x 729
Nice
Now, let's expand 2202110 as : 2 x 729 + 2 x 243 + 0 x 81 + 2 x 27 + 1 x 9 + 1 x 3 + 0 x 1
Makes sense?
wow
Do you know what to do from here?
Ok
Just remember : 2x = 3x - x, example : 2 x 729 = 2187 - 729
Then rewrite everything which is in the form 2x
i c
Then simplify (cancel out things which are equal)
What are you saying?
i see

given $g(x) =
\begin{cases}
e^{-1/x^2}, & x \neq 0 \
0, & x = 0
\end{cases}$ \
I need to prove for $f(x,y)=(x^2+y^2)(g(x)g(y)$ that $lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)}f(x,y)=0$ and that $\lim_{y \to 0}\lim_{x \to 0}f(x,y) \lim_{x \to 0}\lim_{y \to 0}f(x,y)$ don't exist
prograce
For $lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)}f(x,y)=0$ this is what I did: \
Let $\epsilon > 0$ Choose $\delta = ?$ such that for every $\sqrt{x^2+y^2} < \delta$ : $|(x^2+y^2)e^{\frac{-1}{x^2}}e^{\frac{-1}{y^2}}| < \epsilon$
prograce
How do I manipulate the expression so I can find the appropriate delta?
Maybe use exp(-1/x^2) < exp(-1/(x^2+y^2)) = exp(-1/delta^2), same for exp(-1/y^2) as a starter.
@graceful ferry Has your question been resolved?
Looks fine. I would suggest limiting delta to 1 and you can solve exp(-2/delta^2) = epsilon for delta.
How do I limit delta to 1 ?
Your result will be something like d < min (1 ; "expression with Epsilon"). Just state, that delta has to be <= 1.
In this case we care about very small values for Epsilon and Delta.
So it might be helpful, to limit Epsilon too. That way, you can easily apply the ln() on the equation.
The other expression is sqrt(2/ln(epsilon)) so i could say epsilon <1 so ln is never undefined
But question I have is this allowed to limit epsilon for formal proof ? I just sau that since epsilon is a very small value then let epsilon <1 ?
I do not see a problem, because we prove the limit for arbitrary small values of Epsilon.
Okay!
On the other hand, you could always make a seperate case fpr Epsilon >= 1, but I do not think that it is necessary.
I will keep that in mind for other questions ty
Can I move on to the other parts pf the question, which I'm also struggling with ?
Where the red question mark is, is that step legal ? Because then the limit =0 and it does exist..
,rccw
For e^-1/y^2 -> 0 so multiply everything by 0 ?
It's ok
I do not see, why these limits should not exist. I clearly miss something here.
Maybe I did a mistake
Oh no I made a mistake i was supposed to find g(x) such that limit to 0 doesnt exist oops . I will retry from beginning I will coke back later
Is cos(1/x)+2 ok?
Is it bounded, limx->0 doesn't exist, g(x)!=0 for all x!=0
DO I understand this correctly, this g(x) will be put into f(x,y) = (x^2+y^2)g(x)g(y) ?
Yes
This should work, the limit for (x,y)->(0,0) is 0 and the single inner limit will not exist, I think.
Great
Sorry I have to go through the proof again I thought maybe I can use sandwich thm? Since the g(x) is bounded? I could try it with f(x,y) left side by 0 since everything is positive and right side idk (?)
Or maybe proof by definition again if I could manipulate the expression
Proof by definition is easy, because you have |cos(1/x)+2| <= 3
Should be like 9|delta^2|< epsilon
Okay
But I have to go now. Hope everything works now.

So
I need to verify that the sum of the subspaces is itself a subspace
The criteria I'm having trouble verifying is closure under scalar multiplication
The only way I know how to prove it would be using distributive property, except I don't think I can use distributive property without first proving scalar multiplication.
"v is in V_i for some i" - why?
all you know is it can be written as v = v1 + ... + vn, where v1 is in V1, ... vn is in Vn
Agreed Bungo
that is not what the definition says, but ok (i think what i said is simpler)
Using that we must prove that fv is in the sum
Where f is from the field
So we have f(v1 + v2 + ... + vn)
Now what...
this is also not the definition, the question asks us to prove that using the actual definition
See if we could distribute here it would be real easy
well i took the blue box to be the definition
why do you think you can't distribute?
Cuz we didnt prove scalar multiplication
it has a proof right below it 🤣
How can we distribute without proving scalar multiplication is closed
but any element of V1 + ... + Vn is an element of V
and you can do scalar distribution in V
then just show that the result (after distribution) is in fact in V1 + ... + Vn
do it in V
Yeah but then all we r proving is
"If we can use distributive property, then scalar multiplication is closed"
im not sure how that implies it is a proof of the blue box, but sure, i wont drag this further. i still think defining it as the smallest containing subspace is superior. maybe you are familiar with this book
well it's a subset of a vector space, anything that you can do in that vector space you can do in the subset
then just show that the "outcome" is in the subset
that's how you show things are closed
U cant just do what u do in a vector space in a subset of the vector space and assume it works
yep, very familiar, it's axler's LADR
U can only do it in a subspace
why not?
We need to prove out subset is a subspace
yep
Bungo
Agreed
And it'll be in V
yep
then just look at your final answer after doing the distribution in V
and explain why in fact it's in the subspace
because V is a vector space
But
and you are working with elements of that vector space
Hold on
Let me think
So f(v1 + v2 + ... + vn)
Is in our Sum vector space
I mean
We need to prove it is
How can we apply the distributive propery
right we need to prove that
maybe the confusion is the following
look at the definition of subspace
look at what i highlighted in particular
Yes
And idk if it has the same scalar multiplication as on V
Without first assuming it has the same distributive property as V
There is no reason to believe that f(v1 + ... + vn) = fv1 + ... fvn
i think you have things backward a bit
the idea is that you first consider U as a subset of V, with the same operations as in V, since after all every element of U is also in V
Since we dont know that distributive property holds on our subset
then you show that if you add two elements of U (using the V addition) then the result is in U
similarly if you multiply an element of U by a scalar (using the V scalar multiplication) then the result is in U
I understand now
cool
(oh, and for completeness, you also have to show that U contains the zero vector from V)
Yeah i alr know the rest
Each individual subspace has 0
So we just add 0 + 0 +...
And get 0 in U
yep you got it
Except
Now im confusing myself again
Wait nvm
I unconfused myself
Ok Bungo
How about this @nova yoke
well any set contains itself (as a subset)
Every space contains itself, just like every set, in the meaning $A \subseteq A$ for all $A$
Luigi
you have to read the highlighted part well
they mean "as a subset"
How do u know that
You can read it in the text
here is meant as a subset
yea he's being a tiny bit sloppy
with experience you know what they mean unless you're reading a set theory book where you better be more careful
in axler's proof?
let me quickly reread
nope, all except this one mean subset
Are all contained in the sum
but the highlighted one means "contain as elements"
yeah
fortunately iirc in this book, there aren't many situations where he talks about sets as elements of other sets
(maybe just in the quotient space section)
so if he says one set contains another, he's gonna mean "as a subset"
Okay
Do u have any tips
On dealing with book
Its been good so far but
Idk anything to look out for
just come here and ask questions any time you get confused
Ok thanks
it's not an easy book for a first exposure to LA, and it will get harder
but it's a good book

U is a subgroup under addition, but I'm speaking topologically here
can you exactly write your group U? i dont see how its a group as written
either way i dont know of "nice way" to write S2
Actually no it is not lol
(½,0) and (0,½) is not in U
right so the "quotient by U" is also slightly problematic

Prove that the subsequence of a monotone bounded sequence is monotone and bounded.
\
I'm hoping to use the definition of a sub-sequence here.
\
Definition: Let $(a_n)$ be an seqeunce . Let $b_n: \N \to \N$ be a sequence such that $b_n$ is strictly increasing. We then define a sub- sequence $c_n= a_{b_n}$
\
\textbf{ Issue here : I can't use the fact that the composition of two increasing functions is increasing}
wai
Any way around that
I can't use that fact as I'm still doing basic RA
or can I prove that without calculus?

Calculus is irrelevant here; you are dealing with sequences, not functions
every subsequence of a monotone sequence is monotone?
ask yourself how do you prove a sequence is monotone? how do you prove a sequence is bounded?
chase through the definitions and you will have an easier time writing the proof
I will second that
yea
monotone and bounded
I... Don't think this is true
Whoa more colors
Ok so if you have a monotonic sequence, it's not true that a subsequence is monotonic and bounded
Prove that
theany subsequence of a monotone bounded sequence is monotone and bounded.
Oh, you meant that if it's monotone and bounded ok
I see, thanks
Let me try chasing definitions then
I would reach for a proof by contradiction here, but that's a weakness of mine.
There's probably a way to prove it without that
one more "advanced" way I can see is the composition of two increasing functions is increasing so any subseqeunce is increasing
That's not necessarily true
Well, hmmm
Sorry yes it is true
I was imagining something that was not a composition
But regardless I don't see a way to move from composition to subsequences
Here though $c_n≥ c_m\forall n≥m$ as $c_{b_r}≥c_{b_q} \forall b_r≥ b_q$ where $c_n= c_{b_r}, c_m= c_{b_q}$
wai
wait
I didn't mean that
oops
I've got this
give me 2 minutes
Let the sequence be $(a_n)$, we then define a strictly increasing sequence $b_m$. It follows that $a_{b_l}≥a_{b_r} \forall l≥r$ as $a_n$ is an increasing seqeunce
wai
not super formal, but I think the idea is that ||each member of the subsequence a_n_k is a member of the bounded sequence a_n, so the subsequence is bounded, and because the original sequence is monotone, you'd have that a_n_k <= a_n_l for k < l once you treat them as members of the original sequence, so monotoneness follows too?||
wai ought to not read this.
Is this is the key idea for incrasing
That makes sense
As for bounded the terms of the subsequence(c_n) are still terms of the same sequence(a_n) as the indexing seqeunce is a strictly increasing natural sequence (b_n) ,$c_n = a_{b_n}$

Hihi!! so i asked this yesterday but nobody helped me
translation: 'Let triangle ABC have I, O, I_A as its incircle, circumcenter, and excircle opposite A respectively. Let D be a point on BC such that DA = DI_A. Let the radius of its incenter be 8, and the radius of the circumcircle be 18. Suppose that IO// BC. Then whats the length of AD?
my figure
i only have that A,O,D collinear cause of similarity😓
can anyone help??
@chilly cobalt Has your question been resolved?
IO//BC <=> tan(B)tan(C)=3 from googling :p
and can you prove that?
yea
can you put the proof here?
what did you even google
why do you have that the two red angles are equal?
the angle marked with single red
incenter is not necessarily on the euler line
i have never heard of that
and the implication your drew earlier is false
oh
im never getting better at geo😓
anyways back to the question
what's your proof that AOD are colinear?
bleh dont have it💔
ok ok. In this case let us make a conjecture: it seems like DI_A is perpenticular to BC, so how about we do this:
Let D' be the perpendicular from I_A to BC, and show that D=D'

I'm unsure how to progress on d)
@untold sentinel Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> Thank you
i'd try finding the length of AD (or DC -- these two are the same length)
that, or
actually
BD is parallel to BA+BC
you can use this + the length of AD to figure out the vector BD and from that you can get OD
The picture for c) is wrong. |BA| != |BC|
Took me a while too. I had the feeling some info was missing. 😉
Yeah I drew it wrong
ABC is obtuse also
I would use a projection of e.g. AB onto the diagonal AC to get the intersection point of the diagonals.
I would not call it O, because this is usually reserverd for the origin.
But it looks right.
Ah, what would you notate it as then
M, because it is the kind of the middle of the kite.
YOu can use any letter, but O is kind of special.

honestly this is kinda simple, but im dumb
i equated sum of inf terms formula with r1 and r2
but idk what to do exactly after that
Show your work
all i did was equate
Ah ok
Yeah
Yeah keep going
ig ill cross multiply now
Yeah
$r_{2}^2 - r_{1}^2 = (r_{2}-r_{1})(r_{2}+r_{1})$
Executor (ask on server b4 DM)
Yuh
Yup thats it
can you tell me what this solution meant
the reason i came here was i didnt understand that ^
This forms a quadratic in r
Which has the roots r1 and r2
Since if you put r1 and r2 into the thing you go back to the original two eqns
Yeah?
um its a hw one but its from jee adv
Np
Ill explain it as if u consider( a/1-x)=x as an equation, r1 amd r2 solve the equations hence are roots
Most appropriate statement
ah okay
ty

Ms executor is right as well
its from the same ch, this is a passage
🙏
!status
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above

and this is the sub q
This is a pyq right
Bruh
Yeah I've done this I remember lmao
i found the coordinates of Dn and value of r
all jeetards in one channel
Rudy, you can take over if you wish- I have some work for a bit
Same here
ye
But I'll stay for this one
Ayo you shouldn't be solving pyqs rn
class hw
Do them after your syllabus is complete
Wow ok your sir is real smart
since the ch is over we got hw
theres a section of qs from jee adv
lol
i believe that ones from 2021
i mean they're solvable ig....
this was the 7th q 💀
That's not the point
Lol
When you do it under time pressure, questions that are generally solvable seem very tough
@fallen sparrow i think i solved this one
Yeah?
so if i take the critical case here
Alright
like the smaller circle touching the circumference
of the bigger one
1s
lemme show image of what i mean
Yeah
like this
center of inner circle P
center of bigger circle O
and the point on which the diameter of inner circle touches be Q
just assuming
Fr.
so i can equate PQ + OP = OQ right?
Especially adv
i can prob find OP using distance formula
is that method correct?
bro its hw i cant help it
Yeah
U appeared for this year adv?
Yes
Not so good, I got my college through a diff exam
bro if i suck so hard rn what will happen during my jee 😔
Bro ur all good
You're just starting out dw
??? Might be sensitive but did you get into iit?
Just be persistent
Bruh you got like 2 years ahead of you
yea ik but these qs kinda hard tbh
I said adv not so good why would I get iit lmao
im needing like 10 mins or 15 to solve these
Right now you should be experimenting with tough books like pathfinder, loney sbt etc
That's great not even going to lie
Olympiads
Ur gloatng now 😑
Oh shi mb
Even in actual advanced tough problems take 7 minutes
True
Omg pathfinder
Yes pf
Brings me horrors fresh ones
Lol
Do room.examgoal for pyqs
bro what
<@&268886789983436800>
✅
Wth?
i got OP
so now since i got all in the powers of n, i can equate em to find n
ig
Thats right
dont quit yet cuz the 2^198 is pretty scary 😔
dude wtf
thats actually monstrous
huh wha
yea no i quit this q

With?
Determine if the parabola is upward or downward, determine the roots, and critical point
And plot
if they dont know what a vertex is they dont know what extremas are or max or min
Why they plotting stuff 
idk
Should know concavity
but this is a quadratic you dont need to use calculus
Hello
Yea but if u want
A good idea
yes but they dont know any
Can u guys help me idk wgat im looking at
you dont need to do all derivative stuff for concavity when you just need to look at the sign Lol

On quadratics yes
Get a new channel
Okk ty
can you just tell me the basic how are equations like these related to graphs
pleasee
Quadratics are parabolic
i mean ik -2 and 6 are zeroes then if i plot these on graph they are on x
then
what's y
how does y come in the equation
like in ax^2+bx+c = 0
alr
i understand
so y is 0 or can be any value acc to x
so y=ax^2+bx +c
then
?
should we insert the zeroes ?
to get the value of y ?
nah
sorry
zeroes make 0
mb
For finding the vertex this: \frac{-b}{2a}
\frac{-b}{2a}
and if you need y, replace the x with the result of the vertex formula
what's even vertex can you please tell
its a point where the parabole starts rising(or falling) from
should be
so if -2 and 6 are on the x axis then the vertex should be on their mean right?
i mean
not saying that on the x
Yes
But u don’t need to know now
alr
@odd path i mean if 2 is mean of the two points on the x axis then how do i now find the y axis
2- x axis
?- y axis
Just replace x in the quadratic with what you got
In this case it would be this= 2²-8-12
Should be
@odd path graph is this ?
one of my friend sent this to me
why's there (0,12)
i mean how do we determine 0,12
alr
sir
im so dumb
sorry
i understand
it now

what if i have to fynd the asyntote of
2x/(x^3-3x-2)
like how the duck teacher expects me to know that without explaining that to us
should i just skip this exercice and hope it doesnt appear on exam
Pretty much always, it will factor nicely if this was given as an exercise
and you test the roots by plugging in or synthetic division
Bro
Have u seen the roots

-1 satisfies
2 also does
And 1 also
if there are any rational roots at all they will take the form
±(divisor of constant term)/(divisor of leading coeff)
wait so the candidates of rationalizeng is +-number of nx^3 and the +-without the x?
since when is 1-3-2=0
no. look up videos on YouTube maybe.

After you found the candidates using RRT, you plug them in to check

You can use symmetries of the polynomial if there are some to save you of some computations, otherwise yes

For these two things I need to proof that they are true. What would be the proper way to include the proof by induction. In the proof itself but that would require me two include two nested proofs in this proof or should I just create two different proofs after. If I do that how do I mention that these results are proofed and valid in my original proof
Oh there is a mistake when I wrote this out for the greater than part it should be 1/sqrt(n+1)
@sand flume Has your question been resolved?
Just say that they’re lemmas - you can prove them at the start, name them Lemma 1 and Lemma 2, and invoke them later
So before I start the base case I should say lemme 1 and then I have a whole proof for lemma 1 and then same for lemma 2. Wouldn't this be too long for one proof? And then what is the proper way of involving the lemma in my work sections?

idk I wouldn’t even prove these things and chalk them up to being trivial but whatever floats your boat for style (though all you’re doing is putting the same stuff in a different order, so idk how much length is going to change)
And then what is the proper way of involving the lemma in my work sections?
“By Lemma 1 and Lemma 2, it is obvious that”
Ok so two things. How can I decide what is trivial or not. And by placement I mean like under the work or to the side

We begin by proving two lemmas:

Prove that ( f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} ) is continuous if and only if for every ( X \subset \mathbb{R} ), it holds that ( f(\overline{X}) \subset \overline{f(X)} ), where ( \overline{X} ) is the closure of ( X ).
Halex
I find myself struggling with the other direction, any hint?
it would work to show that for every sequence x_n in X converging to a, f(x_n) converges to f(a)
But still unsure how
$$ a \in X \implies a \in \overline{X} \implies f(a) \in f(\overline{X}) \implies f(a) \in \overline{f(X)}$$
Halex
There exists $(y_n) \in f(X)$ such that $y_n \to f(a)$
Halex
Any hint from there?
Let m a value in R, consider ]m-epsilon, m + épsilon [
what
@meager ore Has your question been resolved?
Sorry I Can’t write (phone) but here’s the idea
Since $a\in \overline{X}$, there exists a sequence ${a_n}$ such that ${a_n} \to a $.
By the continuity of f, $f(a_n) \to f(a) = y$
Since $f(a_n) \subseteq f(X)$, y is a limit point of f(X), so $y \in \overline{f(X)}$. Therefore, $f(\overline{X}) \subseteq\overline{f(X)}$.
Use the fact that it works for every interval X, assume xn converges toward x and choose the right interval X centered around x
This would allow you to prove that for every x in R, f(xn) converges towards f(x)
I thinks he’s struggling with the other way around
a guy with no beard
Should be fairly straight forward. Just use the sequential definition of continuity

I mean, it can be a matrix determinant, but there's no specific name for what this is

That's a hessian matrix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hessian_matrix
In mathematics, the Hessian matrix, Hessian or (less commonly) Hesse matrix is a square matrix of second-order partial derivatives of a scalar-valued function, or scalar field.

Oops, idk what that is lol
what's the difference between this and a jacobian matrix
they're both matrices of partial derivatives ?
(im not fully sure what a jacobian is yet i havent gotten to triple integrals and change of variables)
The jacobian is the first derivative
The hessian is the second derivative
Since f_xy means $\frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial x\partialy}$

Thank you!
So anyway that’s a second derivative
There is but it’s very unweildy to write down
like maybe a function that takes n and spits out a matrix 🧌
matrices can be in the codomain of a function right
$f: \mathbb{R} \mapsto \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$
The next order derivative is like a matrix of matrices
