I have done some manipulation and got that $$\frac{1}{1+e^z} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{n!}{n!+z^n}$$ by the fact that: $$\frac{1}{1+e^z}= \frac{1}{1+\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{n!}}=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{1+z}+\frac{1}{1+\frac{z^2}{2}}+\ldots = \frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{1+z}+\frac{2!}{2!+z^2}+\frac{3!}{3!+z^3}+\ldots$$ $$= \s...

In general, one extracts a manifold invariant from a TQFT by interpreting the closed manifold as a bordism from the empty set to the empty set. The TQFT sends this bordism to a homomorphism of the ground field, which is a number. Such invariants are always multiplicative under disjoint union, this is a consequence of t...

This is a heuristic explanation of Witten's statement, without going into the subtleties of axiomatic quantum field theory issues, such as vacuum polarization or renormalization. A particle is characterized by a definite momentum plus possible other quantum numbers. Thus, one particle states are by definition states wi...
Hausdorff Topological Spaces Examples 3 Recall from the Hausdorff Topological Spaces page that a topological space $(X, \tau)$ is said to be a Hausdorff space if for every distinct $x, y \in X$ there exists open neighbourhoods $U, V \in \tau$ such that $x \in U$, $y \in V$ and $U \cap V = \emptyset$. We also looked at ...
I am still confused about Hypothesis testing. How does one set up the null hypothesis $H_0$ and the alternative hypothesis $H_a$? I have read a post here that doesn't give it much credit, as far as I can tell. (One must use both $H_0$ and $H_a$ for the AP Statistics exam.) I have read that $H_a$ is to be what one does ...

I don't sharply disagree with Dr Neumaier's answer; it is indeed the case that entanglement may only be discussed for Hilbert spaces that are tensor products. However, if the two parts of the well are sufficiently distant, this is nearly the case of your situation, too. When one looks at it in this approximate way, the...
Source Variability Source variability within an observation is assessed by three methods: (1) the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) test, (2) the Kuiper's test, and (3) computation of the Gregory-Loredo variability probability, all based on the source region counts.

First, I think your definition of $H_{n}$ does not agree with Newman's definition. Newman says the following: "Let $H_{n} \subset G_{n}$ be the set of functions of $G_{n}$ with non-negative valence at all parabolic points of $Q_{n}$ other than $\tau = i\infty$." Here $G_{n}$ is the set of modular functions that are exp...

Consider the following two ways of getting the zeroth space in the $K$-theory spectrum $BU \times \mathbb{Z}$: 1) Take the groupoid of finite dimensional complex inner product spaces with isometries as morphisms and apply Quillen $S^{-1}S$-construction to it.

Since 1998 or earlier, there have been no doubts that the AdS/CFT correspondence provides us with a full non-perturbative definition of string theory on the AdS-like background, including all of (type IIB) stringy objects and interactions and subtleties that we have ever heard of.

Besides the usual deterministic DFS/BFS approaches, one could also consider a randomized algorithm.

Polynomials Applied to Linear Operators Suppose that $T$ is a linear operator from the vector space $V$ to $V$. Then the operator $T \circ T = T^2$ is an operator from $V$ to $V$. In fact, we can compose $T$ with itself multiple times, that is, for $m$ as a positive integer we can define the operator $T^m$ as follows:(...

Integral representation of $S(p,q,x)$ Writing $$k^{-q}=\frac{1}{\Gamma (q)}\int_0^{\infty } e^{-k \;t} t^{q-1} \, dt\tag{s1}$$ and observing the formula for the generating function of the generalized harmonic number $$...
I think that the problem stems from the action of the operator $\hat p$. Please correct me if I am mistaken. The action of the operator $\hat p$ in the quantum space is defined as $<x|\hat p|a>=-i \hbar \partial_x <x|a>$ if the state $|a>$ does not depend on x. In fact, if the state $|a>$ depended on $x$, like for inst...
In set theory, we have the phenomenon of the universal definition. This is a property $\phi(x)$, first-order expressible in the language of set theory, that necessarily holds of exactly one set, but which can in principle define any particular desired set that you like, if one should simply interpret the definition in ...
Consider the following matrix: $ \left[ \begin{array}{ccc} -0.05 & 0.45 & 0 \\ 0.05 & -0.45 & 0 \end{array} \right] $ Row reducing the above matrix in Matlab using the rref() function produces what I would expect (just adding top row to bottom row and scaling top row):$ \left[ \begin{array}{ccc}1.0 & -9.0 & 0 \\0 & 0 &...
Spectroscopy operation In spectroscopy, an image of the projector lens crossover is magnified and projected onto the camera. When properly adjusted, the observed CCD image consists of sharp vertical lines that represent electrons of particular energy. Displacement of lines in the horizontal (or dispersive) direction in...
Let $X$ denote a monoid. Then we can make $Y = \mathcal{P}(X)$ into a monoid, too. Define $$AB = \{ab \mid a \in A, b \in B\}$$ for all $A,B \in Y.$ We see immediately that $1$ (shorthand for $\{1\}$) is our new identity: $$A1 = A, \;\; 1B = B.$$ In fact, $Y$ becomes an ordered monoid by defining that $A \leq B$ is not...
Let $X$ be an $n$-by-$p$ matrix and consider the closed convex polyhedron $$\mathcal P_X := \{y \in \mathbb R^n | \|X^Ty\|_\infty \le 1\}.$$ Notice that $\mathcal P_X$ is symmetric about the origin. Problem 1: Given a point $a \in \mathbb R^n$ with $a \not \in \mathcal P_X$, how to compute the euclidean projection of $...
You can directly imply a probability distribution from a volatility skew.Note that, for any terminal probability distribution $p(S)$ at tenor $T$, we have the model-free formula for the call price $C(K)$ as a function of strike $K$\begin{equation}C=e^{-rT} \int_0^\infty (S-K)^+ p(S) dS\end{equation}Therefore we can wri...
In Delta of binary option, I do not see how to prove that the limit of $\partial C_t/\partial S_t$ is equal to $+\infty$ as $t \rightarrow T$. Can someone help ? The value of a bond binary call in the Black-Scholes model is given by \begin{equation} B_t = e^{-r (T - t)} \mathcal{N} \left( d_- \right), \end{equation} wh...
I am trying to rewrite a Schrödinger equation using dimensionless quantities but here, the potential is perturbed by $\lambda x^4$: \begin{equation}V(x) = \frac{m\omega^2}{2}x^2 + \lambda x^4\end{equation} $\lambda$ and $\omega$ are parameters of the system. The Schrödinger equation reads then: \begin{equation}-\frac{\...

Basic Theorems Regarding Free Groups on a Set Basic Theorems Regarding Free Groups on a Set On the The Free Group on a Set X, F(X) page we defined the free group $F(X)$ generated by the set $X$. We will now look at some basic results regarding free groups. Proposition 1: The free group generated $1$ element, $F_1$ is i...
