ah yeah more or less the same thing I said then.
you missed out on the word 'and' in your writing.
basically what you want to do is join P to each point separately. only one of these points will form a line with P such that it's parallel to the z-axis.
well you can prove it algebraically, I hope? if you want to confirm, that is.
yeah... I totally do ehem

how to guess that a vector is a normal vector
wdym guess
if it is perpendicular to the surface at a given point you mean?
like Az + By + Cz = D?
yes..why do we repressnt it like n =《a,b,c》
Wdym why?
that's just the notation for any vector, yes?
And also this doesn't have to do with it being normal
please,first clarify me what is a plane
...
then i will follow up with more questions
so are you working on a problem or something
cause this is a little confusing to help with no idea what ur trying to do
!1q
Please stick to one question at a time to help others follow the conversation better and prevent confusion/crossed answers. Once it has been answered, you may send your next question.
no..just learning theory right noe
might want to watch a video first
the more i am moving forward the less i understand
In 3d space, a plane is a 2d subspace
i was watching one...
thats just mathematics in general ngl
And?
It's like an infinitely flat piece of paper that never bends
i get it that a plane is an infinite sheet in a 3d space..right?
flat sheet
Yes
A vector is normal to a plane if it is pointing directly away from the plane
and ...then i understood that a normal vector is a 90° vector
What do you mean with "90° vector"?
You don't know what 90° is?
i know
okay..and is this always present in 3d space?
bro..you guys are roasting me
Well every plane has vectors that are normal to it
But different planes might have different normal vectors
Sure thing

matrixes, if i have a 4 x 2 and a 2 x 6 matrix, the products will be stored in a 4 x 6 matrix?
(rows) x (columns)
yes indeed
wait
for multiplying matrices, is it always row for the first matrix and column for the second matrix?

Let e be such that e^2 = 0 but e ≠ 0.
e = e^2/e (as e is not 0)
= 0/e = 0 (again, the denominator is non zero)
So e = 0
Where's the mistake?
The mistake is assuming such an e exists.
are you thinking of dual numbers
if $e \cdot e = 0$ with $e \neq 0$ you can't really cancel terms nor can you divide by arbitrary nonzero numbers since e would be a zero divisor?
Krish
so e^2/e would also be invalid i believe
@brisk steeple Has your question been resolved?
of course
i dont undersntad
what makes you think 0/e=0 implies that e=0?
Bro it's a chain:
e = e^2/e = 0/e = 0
oh okay. putting it on seperate lines was weird
wait is division by e even defined in the first place
^
e is defined and division is defined
Closed due to timeout
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
✅ Original question: #help-39 message
that doesnt mean division by e is defined especially since dual numbers are an extension of real numbers
Like how we defined i^2 = -1 and don't define division for it specifically
we define divison of complex numbers by multiplication of an inverse. with dual numbers, multiplicative inverses are not always defined
same with any ring

i cant seem to understand why the answer is C. Isn't really a math question but if theres anyone who remembers electricity that'd be helpful.
Now i know since the Light on LDR decreases so the Resistance Increases so more the Voltage it has, which means the fixed resistor is getting lesser voltage, what i dont understand is why moving the slider to the left would make the Ammeter 0 again
check out #old-network there's a physics server
Aren't physics questions still accepted on this server?
ehh depends, sometimes you'll find someone who knows how to do these problems. but generally we try to keep it mostly math based. if there's some equations or something that the person is stuck on then yes for sure that can be sent here
imo couldn't hurt to try but if it's pure physics go to the physics server

shouldnt the bounds of 2nd integration be a function of theta, and third be a function of phi and theta (on first) or rho and theta (on second)?
yea but they can be constant
they should not be
yeah, but rho's boundaries definitely depend on the others

Can I go any further for this one? Number 9 I included the textbook page cus my handwriting sucks
if I'm reading this right, that's a y^3 right
Question 4 looks right, could factorise 2 out
no you cant but I think u misread the question
Whoops yea
that’s an easy fix tho
Wait thats number 9 nvm
Bro did ,w☕
how do I rotate
,rccw
thank you
Yeah so basically just change 2 to 3
Also for number 10 is the only thing I can do is make it 4log(1000x)
Yea
for real values of x, x^2 is always positive, y^3 needs restrictions tho
well, that's not exactly right
1000 is 10^3 if you notice
Why not ?
because 4log(1000x)=log((1000x)^4) or log(1000000000000x^4) not log(1000x^4)
hint: log(1000x^4)=log(1000 * x^4)
wait so how would I separate the 4 out?
Log1000 here seems familiar since its base 10, what can you do?
we will get to that
I’m not really sure I missed this class yesterday because I was sick
$1000x^4 \neq (1000x)^4$
Minλ
do this first and see
No worries
Then why could I separate it for number 9?
x^2/y^3 is x^2/y^3, 1000x^4 is not (1000x)^4
you can separate because they are multiplied
but, notice that 1000x^4 is not equal to (1000x)^4
Aren’t they being divided?
or rather not equivalent
dividing is just the opposite of multiplying(quite literally)
I just don’t know how I will tell on the test if I can do it or not
try working backwards from your answer to see if it works/is equal to what the initial given was
Wait so ln(x^2)=ln(x)^2? That doesn’t make sense to me
Sorry I’m just really confused
No no, ln(x^2)=2lnx
$log(a^b)=b.log(a)$
Minλ
Oh wait for 10 the ^4 is outside the ()? How would I know that because the () are not written in the given problem
Minλ
Can you work from here?
Wait no I have no idea how you got that
remember log rules
And I’m confused how I am supposed to know if the ^4 or any ^ is outside or inside the () if they are not written
as for the exponent, they always only attach to the first thing they stick to
Yes csharp is right
it's poorly written but you wld assume that $\log 1000x^4$ means $\log(1000(x^4))$
bsharp
It is $log(a\times b)=log(a) + log(b)$
But I thought if it’s inside the () then you can make the 4 go on the outside 😭
Whereas: $a=1000 and x^4=b$
Minλ
this is false.
$\log(ab) = \log(a) + \log(b)$
bsharp
My bad i mistyped🐧☕
Wait how is that false?
Minλ
☕ i was copying \times
what minh gave at first was just incorrect. it's resolved now
But if the ^4 is in the inside of the () why can’t we do 4log(1000x)?
Like we did for 9
But the brackets for (1000x^4) implies this whole term being applied to the log
because it only applies to the x, not the whole 1000x
so we split it first, so then that rule works
Because I’m confused why ln(y^3x) can = 3ln(x) but log(1000x^4) can’t equal 4log(1000x)
Wait what, ln(y^3x)?
$ln(y^3x) \neq 3ln(x)$? did you mean $ln(x^3) = 3ln(x)$?
bsharp
Yea sorry
when applying the rule $\log(x^a) = a\log(x)$, the $a$ has to be for the whole expression x inside the log
bsharp
So if the x is larger than 1x fb the can’t apply?
in the question, $1000x^4$ is actually $1000 \times x^4$ and this doesn't work
bsharp
Oh
more nuance than this but you're getting there
Then isn’t it this the then ? The second row
nice :))
yes! and then we apply the power rule
so put it all together and boom

Log1000 can be simplied too
And sorry more questions for this one I know I am going to do the rule that is division to subtraction. But I’m not sure how to write it because if the expoinet
Note that log here is $log_{10}$
Would it be like divided by 10 so the base is 1
Minλ
what's $\log_{10}(1000)$?
bsharp
Uh 10? i don’t know off the top of my head
recall the definition of the logarithm
Some multiple of 10 I feel like
10^2 is?
1000 times x^4 is multiplied, when you have log(a times b), it is equal to loga+logb, whereas log(a divided by b) is equal to loga-logb
100
So 10^3?
1000
Then, log1000 is?
3?
Correct
(so what's your final answer for question 10?)
Isn’t it the expoinet tho not multiplied
3+4log(x)
the exponent is not in the right place here (otherwise you have missed another pair of brackets.)
x^4 is x times x times x times x, which is just logx+logx+logx+logx=4logx
indeed 
also, it is the exponent of SOLELY x
NOT 1000
this was explained above
you can write $\log(\left(\frac xy\right)^{1/4})$
bsharp
and then play with this a little and use log rules
Can I do this?
the power of 1/4 is still inside the logarithm. you need to clean up the inside a bit first
I’m really confused I just have no idea what to do
Don’t I already have that?
Even with that I have no idea what to do the only thing I know how to do is make it into the subtraction
recall that we can do $\left(\frac xy\right)^{1/4} = \frac{x^{1/4}}{y^{1/4}}$
bsharp
apply this and then it's just log rules from there. this is a nice way to make powers easier to work with
So I would seperate it into subtraction then do like 1/4logx?

Also, what do you mean? Any particular example of infinite sums?
in general it's just a limit of partial sums
Yes we got that much
The point is what do you want to know about them?
What do you mean by "how do they work"?
Sum = 1+2+3=6/2
∞sum=?
An infinite sum (∞ sum) works by not actually adding infinitely many numbers at once instead, we look at what happens as we keep adding more and more terms.
So
1+2=3
1+2+3=6
1+2+3+4=10
?
Yes, you can keep on adding terms like this.

The regex for the dfa im getting is 1*01*00*1(0*1*)*
S has 16 possibilities
But the DFA regex constrains every 1 to be followed by 0
Or if that 1 is skipped then
00
Idk how to progress from here
I hate this problem
There's a particular characteristic strings accepted by M have which makes it easy to do this problem
More precisely M accepts strings with a certain substring.
Contiguous
Say, what's the shortest string M accepts?
001
Between the first and second 0 may or may not be inserted a 1
Or Right
Ohh
F
I got tunnel vision
Right
Of course
It's 001
So then you need the number of strings of the form 1__1__1 which contain 001
You're counting a string twice
Yeah
So 7
1001(001/111/101/011)
1(111/101/011)001
Damn
Any tips on doing ts kinda problems it's kinda forking me up
Im going into rabbit holes
And tunnel visions
Seeing ghosts


I think the regex does help, but usually I think it's good, either from the regex or the automaton, to try to get what kind of strings it accepts more explicitly.
There's patterns you run into often. For instance, those first three states express the fact that to get to the end, you eventually need to write two 0s and a 1.
It's not always easy
You get better at spotting those patterns
Hmmm
I struggled with this problem w bit much
But like even now
Im unsure
Like yea u need 001
But r u sure that dfa isn't mandating something else
Im addition to it
Well if you spot something and you want to make sure it characterizes all strings you can try to convince yourself that :
- if a string does not have the pattern, it is not accepted.
- if a string has the pattern, it is accepted.
In this case, it's pretty easy to check that if 001 is a substring, the string is accepted.
Hmm
If there is never a 001 in a string, then you can never reach the end state
Hmm that's actually clever
And also really sensible
Nice
Btw
Do u have an intuition for proving 2 stack PDA equivalent to a Turing machine
Well the usual construction is how you'd expect : you "run" a 2-stack PDA on a Turing machine by seeing the left and right sides of the tape as the first and second stack>
You similarly "run" a TM on a 2-stack by doing the opposite.
The detail of how you push and pop or move left or right comes kind of naturally from this.

Can someone help me with part 3 of this? I know it
1: wants mid-point rectangles
2: wants 3 of them
But i am unsure of how to do it.
(the answer you see there is before i realised it wants 3 haha)
what would be the endpoints of those rectangles?
the middle of each i suppose
but im unsure if that means we set 8, 16, and 24 as the middle of their own rectangles?
thats like what i tried at first but it obv didnt work
because like
that would extend the last one
past 24
which we dont want
just not looking at the table for a minute, if we suppose we wanted to divide the interval [0,24] into three equal rectangles, where would we draw the dividing lines?
the dividing lines would be at 8 16 and 24 so each has a width of 8
wait
i think i know what ur saying
ohhhh i found it. the width is the 8 but the height is the middle of that which is the 4 12 and 20
Does this look good?
yeah
Ok nice, i will calculate it now

thank you!
nw thanks again
\begin{align*}
S_n &= \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{1}{i 2^i} - \frac{1}{2^{i+1} (i + 1)} \
&= \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{1}{i 2^i} - \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{1}{2^{i+1} (i+1)} \
&= \sum_{i=1}^{n} \frac{1}{i 2^i} - \sum_{i=2}^{n+1} \frac{1}{2^{i} (i)} \
&= \frac{1}{2} + \sum_{i=2}^{n} \frac{1}{i 2^i} - \sum_{i=2}^{n} \frac{1}{2^{i} (i)} - \frac{1}{2^{n+1} (n+1)} \
&= \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{2^{n+1} (n+1)} \

@dusky ferry does the above make sense?
Notice that the index changes from i=1 to i=2 in that step
yes
mhmm one sec could you let me know where does urs begin with in my image, maybe it will make things easier to understand
wait from here?
Essentially:
\begin{align*}
\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{1}{i 2^i} &= \frac{1}{1 \cdot 2^1} + \frac{1}{2 \cdot 2^2} + \ldots + \frac{1}{n \cdot 2^n} \
&= \frac{1}{1 \cdot 2^1} + \qty(\frac{1}{2 \cdot 2^2} + \ldots + \frac{1}{n \cdot 2^n}) \
&= \frac{1}{1 \cdot 2^1} + \sum_{i=2}^n \frac{1}{i 2^i} \
\end{align*}

omg sry, my dumass was reading the first half of the answer
no worries, because you were worried about the yellow material, I thought I would start from around about the yellow material started.
at least I thought that was were it was intended to start...
it's a little bit confusing because it doesn't actually much sense notationally
Also I changed your variable of summation, sorry if it's a little confusing.
I tend to try to avoid lower vs upper case differences.
thats fine yeah lol its kinda hard to see the i and n lol but
does that get "split" in to that?
no
The red turns into the first two and the blue into the last two
1/2 then the first sum = red
second sum then the last term = blue.
mhmm i see
tbh the index changes also confuses me alot
but what i also dont understand is how urs went from for the red - i=1 to i=2 in the second summation
why?
trying to get the index same for both the summations
easier to simplify 2 summations that way
ye
in the first line - i see now that everything is same except the "+1" portion, so essentially what you did was you took summation on both sides so they look the same?
third line - and then removed the "+1" and brough it to the top so its "n+1" and this causes the index to change to i=2? or is it because since it is n+1 , its the second term so thats why we change the index to 2? and then also same thing with the second summation, you added the "n+1" back to the "i" so why did the summation still stay?
third to forth line - my issue is here, once u applied put the value of i in the summation why did u write it again in the forth line, when you already solved it in the line before.
so u kept the summation and the only difference between the 2 were that index so you changed that inherently because + - just cancel out, and u were left with the last line,
alot of reading D:
basically used this for 1st line
after that its all simplifying
@dusky ferry for 3rd line , we are just trying to simplify. you can see that these 2 summations look alike with the exception that the 1st one is "i (2)^i" while 2nd one is "(i+1) 2^(i+1)"
now either we can convert the 1st summand (1/i*2^i) into the 2nd summand ...
or what we did rn was to convert the 2nd summand to 1st summand
how?
we let a new variable (say k) k = i+1 , then our summation (which was from i=1 to n) turns to k = 2 to n+1 , and our summation turns to sum from k=2 to n+1 {1/(2^k * k) }
sorry, I got mod pinged and then sidetracked
@dusky ferry Has your question been resolved?
btw if u understood it a tiny bit , u can try convert the 1st summation thingy into 2nd summation
with the proper index and stuff (as a practice)

I'm not sure where to start for this question
diagonalize
is that eigenvectors?
related
or, did you know that if we identify $\begin{pmatrix} x \ y \end{pmatrix}$ as $x+y \mathrm i$, then multipling $\begin{pmatrix} 0 & -1 \ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ is equivalent to multiplying $\mathrm i$
1048576Orz
i haven't learnt eigenvalues and eigenvectors yet
Then as someone told earlier, try computing the powers of the matrices
I calculated up to like A^8 and i got I
so I'm assuming A^2026 is just gonna be I?
1048576Orz
Yeah the pattern repeats every fourth power
so its I * A^2
yes
so the answer would be A^2
Yes
and you have finished the problem, congrats!

we are asked wether f(x) is odd even or none of the above
f(x)=ln(x^3 + root(1+x^6))
i tried putting x->(-x)
but couldnt solve it further and get an answer in terms of f(x)
real
you can just try subtracting f(x) and f(-x)
the ln will be problematic
like doing the addition and subtraction test
no idea what that is but yeah i think so
i havnt tried that yet
f(x)+f(-x)=0
or
f(x)-f(-x)=0
you could maybe suppose for contradiction that f(x) + f(-x) = 0 and etc see if it holds for all x
idk what the actual name is
I suppose one counter example for each suffices
f(x) + f(-x) becomes 0
i completly forgot we can do this to check
just started doing odd even question
its just the definition
@north talon @rough forge thanks a lot
?
real
i just call it add sub test
definition of odd and even function is just this
oh you meant that
yeah its just the definition ig
well ima go do sum more questions
ill prolly be back soon

Hey guys, I'm having a little bit of trouble with this. I just got off work, so sorry if I seem a little slow
So here's what I know so far
I have this theorem here, and how you get it is basically by differentiating f(tx) in 2 ways. One via the standard chain rule, and one via the relation f(tx)=t^a*f(x)
I know what I'm meant to do, which is just differentiate f(tx) twice, plug in t=1, and get the result
I'm just having trouble differentiating $\sum_{j=1}^{n} \frac{\partial f}{\partial x_j}$

What is the fundamental period in the expression,
f(2x+3)=f(2x+11)
I looked the answer online some sites say it's 4 some 8
If you answer 8 what would you say that the time period of the function sin(7x/2) is
By your logic it's 2pi
period of f(x) is 4, however thats different from f(2x+3). For example, in your second question, you need to ask whats the period of g(x) = sin(7x/2). Period of sin(x) is different from the period of sin(7x)
I think your confusion is you tried to find the period of f(2x) instead of the function f(x)
your function f(x) has the special relationship f(2x+3)=f(2x+11) and off of that, you are asked to calcullate the period of f(x)
Soo the period of f(2x) is coming out to be 8 by this
Hence the period of f(x) should be 16 ???
no, use this idea
2x needs to change by 8, so x changes by 4
yea
But can you please tell what's wrong with this, generally isnt this true that if period of f(x) is T then period of f(2x) will be T/2 ?
I think my issue with this question is it does not tell the period of what in the questionWhat is the fundamental period in the expression
they just leave this kinda ambiguous hence you see the answers being 4 and 8
period of the function f(x) wrt x would be 4
period of the specific term f(2x+3) or f(2x+11) as it appears in the equation would be 8 coz there you need to increase the argument by 8 to get the period
Okk, I'll ask my proffesor if this question is correct or not
Thank you very muchh!
well, its more of the case being unambiguous than wrong
but yea, ask your prof for clarification

im not too sure how u would come up with a substitution here
The answer is a hint to the sub. Your sub should include some hyperbolic trig function
You'll want the identity:
sinh^2(x) + 1 = cosh^2(x)
Yeah I tried doing x = sinhu but it didnt help simplify
Can u show ur W
sure! this is what I've done so far
whenever you see sqrt(var^2 + const^2) its usually a good sign that a trig/hyperbolic sub would work
issue is that you are meant to utilise the unit hyperbola identity
and you are kinda not achieving that with what you are doing
yeah I'm more familar with integrals with sqrt(x^2 +1) or smthing in form similar to that where there isnt a coefficient in front of x^2
im not too sure how would u would configure a substitution when there is a coefficient in front of x^2
ok maybe lets work backward
kk
try to reduce it to a significant integral, don't make a substitution right away
factor out 1/2?
yes
you can still do a substitution
with its original form?
<@&268886789983436800>
yeah
so like
start with [
1 + \sinh^2(u) = \cosh^2(u)
]
i said 9 😭
ikik my mind's somewhere else sorry
okok so now
try to equate that lhs expressiion with what u got in the square root
and solve for x
x = 3/2 sinhu?

sqrt(a^2) = |a| for all real numbers a
#whatdatmean
yes that's |a|
|a|<=|a^2+b^2|
|z|^2?
no
i got my mistake
what should we do next?
i meant how do i seperate it?
consider when Re(z) > 0 and < 0
yes and -|z| <=0 <= Re(z) so
-|z| < Re(z) < |z| when Re(z)>=0

In Argand diagram, the four points representing complex 12 are concyclic, thes the ratio ((z_{1} - z_{3})(z_{2} - z_{4}))/((z_{4} - z_{4})(z_{2} - z_{3}))
I am trying to solve this by taking random complex numbers
z{4}-z{4}??
Do you mean z{4}-z{1}?
Dude just send a picture
Yeah.
I think he means z1,2,3,4 are concylic.
So we have to find that ratio.
?
you can prove it
Dang I didn't know.
I was starting with.
....
All their mod will be 1.
I'm also a JEE aspirant🥀
yeah that's the unit circle method
I attempted 5 days back lmao.
oh how did it go?
Eh.

consecutive years
yes ;-;
Hmm.
completely on topic bro jee is nuts
Rip, I haven't taken a drop yet, don't plan to.
Maharashtra.
Send the proof?
Baii.
Sure.....
Ye thanks.
Oh yeah if I may yes I know in the JEE they love unit circles because you can use cube roots of unity
it might not always be the case
we're assuming mod z is one for the unit circle method
let's not do that
(whiteboard incoming)
I mean even if you take |z| = k, uppar se and neeche se cat jayega.
benzene might not understand it
sure i guess if we need it that way
no i do not know complex numbers yet lol i meant the sentence
I see. Well, Hindi is one of the languages I learnt, so, I don't mind
@young adder Has your question been resolved?
Oh ye nice.
Well we're from the same country and this is the language there lol.
answer {0,pi}
proof
Same
Oh i see
Yes
@young adder Has your question been resolved?
Which part?
Use sum of opposite angles = pi
So arg() + arg() = arg [ ()() ] = pi so the thing inside the arg is real
Thanks
How do you know they will be opposite angles?

Let $\mathbb{Z}{>1}$ be the set of integers greater than $1$. Does there exist a function $f: \mathbb{Z}{>1} \to \mathbb{Z}_{>1}$ such that [ f^{f(n)}(m) = m^n ]
Copter
heres what i have so far
omg
$f^{f(a)+f(b)}(m) = (m^b)^a = m^{ab} = f^{f(ab)}(m)$ so $f(a)+f(b) = f(ab)$
Copter
from what i already did we have $2f(n) = f(2n) = f(n) + f(2)$ implies $f(n) = f(2)$ contradicting injectivity?
Copter
!memes
memes go in #chill
are we no longer that interested in finding a function that works, but finding all of them?
is not a meme bro
Then stop spamming
???
also are we reading this as $f^{f(n)}(m)={(f(m))}^{f(n)}$?
Flip
f^k is f(f(f..f( k times
ah, ok
i mean i showed that there exists no such function
also i have no idea why i let m = p be prime cause i didnt use that at all
the answer is no
I don't immediately see why f^(2f(n))(p) = f^(f(n))(p^2)
oops wait
it shouldve been p^n, right?
yikkkeees
since $f(a)+f(b) = f(ab)$ by induction $f(a^k) = kf(a)$ now set $k = f(b)$ $\$ $f(a^{f(b)}) = f(b)f(a)$ but similarly$ f(b^{f(a)}) = f(a)f(b)$ so we get $a^{f(b)} = b^{f(a)}$ clearly false if we pick $a,b$ coprime
is this better?
think the induction says f(a^k) = f(ka)
wait mb
Copter
should be kf(a) now
^
that seems fair yeah
as long as that lemma is true
although I get f(a) + f(b) = ab rather than f(ab)
that's just direct though
p^ab is f^{f(ab)} (p), no?
it is
ah and you use your lemma
well I guess the neat part about that is ab = f(ab)
but I don't have any issues with what you have now
wait howd you get p^{f(a) + f(b)} = f^{f(a) + f(b)} p
aw okay😭
that would've been f(f(a)+f(b))
so, all good?
seems real yeah

i'm trying to prove or disprove that a convex, real-valued function $f$ on a compact, convex subset $D$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ achieves its supremum $s$.
you can create a sequence of points $x_n$ such that $\lim f(x_n) = s$, and you can produce a convergent subsequence $x_{n_i}$ such that $\lim x_{n_i} = z \in D$ since D is compact.
since f is convex on D, the function must be continuous on the interior of D, so if $z$ is in the interior we are done (basically just extreme value theorem)
i'm not sure what to do if $z$ lies on the boundary, and I can't think of a counterexample either
snowflake
to clarify, f is only convex on D, not necessarily the rest of R^d
Usgjhaibsihoshjsohdohsl
@limber nimbus Has your question been resolved?
thats rather misleading to say, you should phrase it as "a real-valued function f on R^d that is convex on a compact subset D"
you can also just show the original problem to make sure you got it written correctly
so its convex on its entire domain?
treating the domain as D, yes
so whats this for?
when you say a thing like that, you imply f is defined on all of R^d
bro you just made a different question

hi
hi
i have this exercise that is making me do vector product
it asks me to do VxU then compare it with UxV
this is just for me to see that order doesnt matter?
it does matter tho
does it
^
ja
bru my teacher said it didnt

this is the cross product
oh yeah then it is cross product
,w CrossProduct[[3,1,5], [1,2,8]]
this is cross product
this is cross product
,w CrossProduct[[3,1,5], [1,2,8]]
do the other one
<@&268886789983436800>
<@&268886789983436800>
<@&268886789983436800>
,w CrossProduct[[3,1,5], [1,2,8]]
,w CrossProduct[[1,2,8],[3,1,5]]
notice how swapping the order changed the result
yea
yeah
<-->
i see it now
for cross product, swapping the order always flips the direction: (v \times u = -(u \times v)). So the two results are opposite vectors, not parallel in the usual sense they’re both perpendicular to the original two vectors, just pointing in opposite directions.
