I learned that the sufficient and necessary condition for a finite state Markov chain to have a unique stationary distribution is there's only one closed communication class. For example from this tutorial Every Markov Chain with a finite state space has a unique stationary distribution unless the chain has two or more...
EDIT: Here is a related post which concern quadratic vector fields rather than Van der pol equation. In this linked post we see that the convexity of limit cycle play a crucial role. On the other hand the unique limit cycle of Van der pol equation is convex. So there is a Riemanian metric on $\mathbb{R}^2 \setminus C$ ...
Problem Let $\{A_\alpha\}$ be a collection of subsets of $X$; let $X=\bigcup_{\alpha}A_\alpha$. Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$;suppose that $f\vert_{A_\alpha}$ is continuous for each $\alpha$. An index family of sets $\{A_\alpha\}$ is defined to be locally finite if each point $x$ has a neighborhood that intersects $A_\alpha$ ...
If I were to cover the Fibonacci Sequence in introducing sequences to Calculus students, I would probably avoid some of the more obscure properties. I would focus on what early Calculus students should know: for example, how to prove that a sequence converges, and if it does, then how to find what it converges to. (Not...
However, each reaction at a different temperature has a different equilibrium constant. With that said, the amount of each molecule will change which also changes the concentration so the amount of NH3 would not necessarily be 2. This is true. I have not watched the video, but if he is suggesting that the stoichiometri...
Bit of a strange question, but what is it? My physics teacher said it was kind of like a "push" that pushes electrons around the circuit. Can I have a more complex explanation? Any help is much appreciated. Your teacher was right. Current is electric charges (usually electrons) moving. They don't do that by themselves ...
Let's say I have a solid cylinder of uniform mass density, radius $R$ and height $h$. I know that the moment of inertia of this cylinder rotating about the axis parallel to the height and passing through the center of mass is $\frac{MR^2}{2}$. How would the Moment of Inertia (about the same axis) change if I were to cu...
I am working on a problem, which would possibly relate the Fourier transform/series with the jump singularities of the function where the function itself or one of its derivatives jump. ((some kind of logarthmic blow ups too, possibly as a corollary). Consider a BV function $f(t)$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ such that $f(t) =...
A somewhat similar question to what I'm going to ask is this one. The problem is basically that one has the heat equation $c^2\nabla^2u = u_t$ in which initial and boundary conditions are given. But these boundary conditions do not match continuously with the initial conditions. In the question I referred to in the fir...

Both devices are listed to work with I2C clock frequencies up to 400 kHz. The two devices are the only devices on the I2C bus.

Is there a finite group such that, if you pick one element from each conjugacy class, these don't necessarily generate the entire group? No, this is impossible. This is a standard lemma, but I'm finding it easier to give a proof than a reference: Let $G$ be your finite group. Suppose that $H$ were a proper subgroup, in...
How to Implement a Point Source with the Weak Form Today we continue our discussion on the weak formulation by looking at how to implement a point source with the weak form. A point source is a useful tool for idealizing the situation where a source is concentrated in a very small region of the modeling domain. We will...

DCDS We make two observations concerning the generalised Korteweg de Vries equation $u_t + $u xxx$ = \mu ( |u|^{p-1} u )_x$. Firstly we give a scaling argument that shows, roughly speaking, that any quantitative scattering result for $L^2$-critical equation ($p=5$) automatically implies an analogous scattering result f...

This answer focuses on identifying families of solutions to the problem described in the question.

1,409 Works In 1971 Baumgartner showed it is consistent that any two $\aleph_1$-dense subsets of the real line are order isomorphic.

Here is a beautiful result from numerical analysis. Given any nonsingular $n\times n$ system of linear equations $Ax=b$, an optimal Krylov subspace method like GMRES must necessarily terminate with the exact solution $x=A^{-1}b$ in no more than $n$ iterations (assuming exact arithmetic). The Cayley-Hamilton theorem pro...
I was wondering when a stochastic process defined via a SDE is Markovian? The SDE may involved Ito integral, Lebesgue integral, jump component, and any other things. The reason I ask this question is that I don't understand when we can and cannot discuss properties of a Markov process, such as Kolmogorov equations, for...

Basically 2 strings, $a>b$, which go into the first box and do division to output $b,r$ such that $a = bq + r$ and $r<b$, then you have to check for $r=0$ which returns $b$ if we are done, otherwise inputs $r,q$ into the division box..

Given a semilattice $S$, a subset $E$, and a positive integer $n$, let $E^{[n]}$ be the set of all products of $n$-tuples in $E$.

The common understanding is that, setting air resistance aside, all objects dropped to Earth fall at the same rate.

Roughly speaking there are two ways for a series to converge: As in the case of \(\sum 1/n^2\), the individual terms get small very quickly, so that the sum of all of them stays finite, or, as in the case of \( \sum (-1)^{n-1}/n\), the terms do not get small fast enough (\(\sum 1/n\) diverges), but a mixture of positiv...

I will start with an example. Consider a symmetry breaking pattern like $SU(4)\rightarrow Sp(4)$.

Entropy can be considered as "sameness", related to available energy. And the expression $S \leq \frac{2 \pi k R E}{\hbar c}$ has a c in it, but the coordinate speed of ...
The following equation describes the motion of a rigid body rotation, such as a gyroscope: $$ \frac{d\textbf{L}}{dt} ={\bf{\tau}}= \textbf{r}\times m\textbf{g}= {\omega}\times \textbf{L}$$ where $L$ is the angular momentum, $\tau$ is the torque, $r$ is the position vector, $g$ is gravity, and $\omega$ is the angular ve...
The task is to find the period of small oscillations in the potential $$U=U_0\tan^2{\Big(\frac{x^2}{a^2}\Big)}.$$ I started with finding the stable equilibrium points: $\frac{dU}{dx}=0$ $2U_{0}\tan{\Big(\frac{x^2}{a^2}\Big)}\frac{1}{\cos^{2}{\Big(\frac{x^2}{a^2}\Big)}}\frac{2x}{a^{2}}=0$ The solutions of this equation ...
With which notation do you feel uncomfortable? closed as not constructive by Loop Space, Chris Schommer-Pries, Qiaochu Yuan, Scott Morrison♦ Mar 19 '10 at 6:10 As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this quest...
The formulation of an ARIMA model with exogenous regressors is not generally the same as a linear regression model with lagged dependent variables. To my knowledge, the formulation in software packages for the ARIMA model with exogenous regressors is the following: $$\left[ y(t) - \beta_0 - \beta_3 \hbox{levelshift}(t)...
Data on the mean multiplicity of strange hadrons produced in minimum bias proton--proton and central nucleus--nucleus collisions at momenta between 2.8 and 400 GeV/c per nucleon have been compiled. The multiplicities for nucleon--nucleon interactions were constructed. The ratios of strange particle multiplicity to part...
Let $G$ be a real Lie group and $\mathfrak{g}$ the corresponding Lie algebra. Let $\mathfrak{g}^*$ be the dual of the Lie algebra. Then we have the coadjoint action of $G$ on $\mathfrak{g}^*$. Consider a $G$-invariant (w.r.t. the coadjoint action) embedded submanifold $U \subset \mathfrak{g}^*$, such that the maximal-d...
I am still not sure about this problem and I was hoping someone can help me put it to rest once and for all. Suppose $X=[0,1]$ and $m$ is the $\sigma$ algebra of Lebesgue measurable sets on $X$ and $\mu$ is Lebesgue measure on $X$, consider the function $g_1=2\chi_{[0,1/2)}, g_2=4\chi_{[1/2,3/4)}, g_3=8\chi_{[3/4,7/8)}...
Here, I will demonstrate an astonishing fact (and thus an astonishing lack of understanding): It is well known from the uncertainty principle that an electron cannot be at rest. However, consider the relativistic limit, in which we treat the electron as a spinor. Then, by solving the free equation of motion, we get \be...
