[Updated in light of some of the comments and answers below] This is a question about the relationship between higher-order logic and topoi. It's well-known that every topos gives a model of higher-order logic, in which the type in which sentences inhabit is taken to be the subobject classifier $\Omega$. As far as I ca...
I'm not quite sure that I understand how the generalized likelihood ratio test works for composite hypotheses; observe the example below: Let $X_1,...,X_n$ be a random sample from an exponential distribution, $X_i\sim EXP(\theta) \implies E(X_i)=\theta$. Derive the generalized likelihood ratio test of $H_0:\theta=\thet...
This question already has an answer here: Suppose I have a $d \times n$ matrix $\mathbf X$ (each entry point has $d$ dimensions) and after some manipulation of data (i.e. summarizing the data $\mathbf X$) I get its $d \times d$ symmetric, quadratic correlation matrix $\rho$ (defined by Pearson). Then by SVD definition ...

I think I'm missing something quite basic here but consider the process: $$ e^- + e^+ \rightarrow 2\gamma$$ Fermions have opposite parity to antifermions so the parity quantum number before the process is $P=-1 \times (-1)^L$ where $L$ is the relative orbital angular momentum, which should vanish in the zero momentum f...
Write out the simple equations $$\begin{align}Y_j &= a_0 Z_j + a_1 Z_{j-1} + a_2 Z_{j-2}\\Y_{j-1} &= a_0 Z_{j-1} + a_1 Z_{j-2} + a_2 Z_{j-3}\end{align}$$ There are some very simple cases that make $Y_j \perp Y_{j-1}$ due to the independence assumption of the random variables $\{Z_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{Z}}$. An example is $a...

I have peacefully derived geometric Brownian motion by applying Ito's formula to the process $Y(t) = e^{\alpha B(t) - \frac{t}{2}}$ and letting $\alpha = 1$. The differential form of $dY$ is clearly equal to $$dY = \alpha YdB + \left(\frac{\alpha^2}{2} - \frac{1}{2}\right)Ydt \qquad (1)$$ and I understand this to be th...

Let $K = \mathbb Q(\mu_m)$ and $\zeta_K$ it's Dedekind zeta function. We know from the class number formula that, around $0$: $$\zeta_K(s) \sim s^{r_1+r_2-1}h(K)R(K)/w(K) $$ where $h,R,w$ stand for the size of the class group, the regulator and the size of the subgroup of roots of unity. On the other hand, we have the ...
The biggest point is of course that all motion is relative, as many have pointed out. Even barring that, pretending that we live in Copernican times and assuming that the Sun is the center of the universe, the question posits that the force of gravity might be proportional to mass and velocity. This would mean somethin...

I am trying to figure out whether the following is true: a function $f$ has limit $L$ at the point $p$ if and only if for every $\epsilon > 0$ there exists a $\delta > 0$ such that $$ s,t \in \mathbb{B}_{\delta}(p) \implies |f(s) - f(t)| < \epsilon. $$ I believe that it is true because by definition of limit $$ |t - p|...
For Discrete Time There are two quantities you should be careful not to mix up. One is the number of individuals who will die during a given interval: $d_x = N_x - N_{x+1}$. One is the fraction, out of those alive at the beginning of a given interval, who will die during the interval: $q_x = \frac{d_x}{N_x}$ ($N_x$ bei...

To do it for a particular number of variables is very easy to follow. Consider what you do when you integrate a function of x and y over some region.

It's clearly a norm: If $\|\nabla u\|_{L^2}=0$ then $u$ is constant, and the only constant in $L^2$ is $0$. On the other hand, if $H^1=W^{1,2}$ were complete under this norm we would have, by the bounded inverse theorem, that both norms are equivalent, which we know to be false (the scaling below should give you an ide...

I am trying to prove or disprove the following statement: $$\sum_{r|n} d(r^2) = d^2(n),$$ where $d$ is the number of divisors function. Computing it for small numbers yields equality, so I at least think it's true. But I can't see how to prove it formally. I have tried working with prime factorisations, but finding equ...
Answer $S=2$ Work Step by Step $\displaystyle \sum_{i=0}^{∞}(0.5)^i=(0.5)^0+(0.5)^1+(0.5)^2+...$ $a_1=(0.5)^0=1$ $r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{(0.5)^1}{(0.5)^0}=0.5$ $S=\frac{a_1}{1-r}=\frac{1}{1-0.5}=\frac{1}{0.5}=2$ You can help us out by revising, improving and updating this answer.Update this answer After you claim an a...
The Neighbourhood of a Vertex Definition: The Neighbourhood of the vertex $x \in V(G)$ is the set of all vertices which are adjacent to $x$. For the graph $G = (V(G), E(G))$ we have that the neighbourhood of $x$ denoted $N_{G} (x)$ is $\displaystyle{N_{G}(x) = \left\{ {y \in V(G) : {x, y} \in E(G)}\right\}}$. When unde...
The Handshaking Lemma We will now look at a very important and well known lemma in graph theory. Lemma 1 (The Handshaking Lemma): In any graph $G = (V(G), E(G))$, the sum of the degrees in the degree sequence of $G$ is equal to one half the number of edges in the graph, that is $\displaystyle{\sum_{v \in V(G)} \deg (v)...
Bedforms and roughness Bed forms are relief features initiated by the fluid motions generated downstream of small local obstacles at the bottom consisting of movable (alluvial) sediment materials. Contents Introduction Many types of bed forms can be observed in nature. The bed form regimes for steady flow over a sand b...

The displacement \(h(t)\), in centimeters, of a mass suspended by a spring is modeled by the f...
The suggestion in the comments to use brute force is a little unsatisfactory; what if $15$ were $15000$? Here is a general method. Suppose$$m = \sigma(n) = \prod_{p^k ||\: n} \frac{p^{k+1}-1}{p-1}.\tag{1}$$Each factor $d$ in the product is an integer (a finite geometric series). The prime factorization of $m$ will seve...
A first order ODE is an equation of the form \[\dfrac{dy}{dx}=f(x,y)\] or just \[y'=f(x,y)\] In general, there is no simple formula or procedure one can follow to find solutions. In the next few lectures we will look at special cases where solutions are not difficult to obtain. In this section, let us assume that \(f\)...
If $1_K \in K$ and $1_F \in F$ are the multiplicative neutral elements of $K$ and $F$, notice that $\Bbb Q$ naturally embeds in $K$ by the map $\Bbb Q \ni \frac p q \mapsto (p \cdot 1_K) \cdot (q \cdot 1_K)^{-1} \in K$. This is where we use the fact that the characteristic is $0$: this guarantees that $q \cdot 1_K \ne ...
In the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, we take the partial time derivative of the action. But the action comes from integrating the Lagrangian over time, so time seems to just be a dummy variable here and hence I do not understand how we can partial differentiate $S$ with respect to time? A simple example would also be helpf...
Question: As we know, (1) the macroscopic spatial dimension of our universe is 3 dimension, and (2) gravity attracts massive objects together and the gravitational force is isotropic without directional preferences. Why do we have the spiral 2D plane-like Galaxy(galaxies), instead of spherical or elliptic-like galaxies...
I'm struggling with some anomalous behavior in an analysis I'm running and was hoping for some advice/insights. I'm attempting to extract the implied funding/borrow costs from ETF option prices (say ... Trying to fit variants of SVI (Zeliade method, SSVI etc) to options on futures price data. One of the core ideas of t...
