Choudhry's Theorems on Waring-like Problems for Rationals
|
| |
Hello all, Some results for a "Waring-like Problem". ANY rational N is, in an infinite number of _non-trivial_ ways: 1) the sum of 3 rational 3rd powers. (Ryley's Theorem) 2) the sum of 6 rational 5th powers. (Choudhry) 3) the sum of 8 rational 7th powers. (Choudhry) All results are dependent on certain algebraic identities, but whether... more »

Perfect Square
|
| |
Let P(m) = (4m)^(4m-1) + 4m^2 + 1, where m is a positive integer. Is it true that this expression is not a perfect square for any value of m?

subgroups of ultrapowers
|
| |
Perhaps someone count direct me to some experts and/or references? Let *Z be an ultrapower of the integers Z, with respect to a nonprincipal ultrafilter on a countably infinite index set. For any real number r, one can associate a subgroup of *Z: S_r = { n in *Z: nr \in *Z + I } where I \subset *R consists of the infinitesimals in the... more »

entropy question
|
| |
my data consists of a point on a grid which moves around through time. so, you can look at this as a trail through a plane, or a timeseries of (x,y) coordinates. imagine this as a bug moving around on a table. is there a way i could measure the "entropy" of this system? is there an information entropy measure that would be appropriate?... more »

Can we speak about ill-conditioning when $\kappa(A)>\log(1)=0$ if elements of $A$ are known with an infinite precision?
|
| |
Hi, Here are two questions: 1) I am given a square matrix $A$. Its determinant does not equal $0$. Let's compute its condition number, according to the infinity norm, i.e. \[ \kappa(A)=||A||_{\infty}\cdot ||A^{-1}||_{\infty}. \] Elements of $A$, i.e. $A_{i,j}$, $1\leq i\leq n$, $1\leq j\leq n$, where $A$ is of dimension $n$, are known with an infinite precision,... more »

minimal set
|

Let (X,f) be a topological dynamical system, f a surjective map. R(f) is the set of recurrent points and AP(f) is the set of almost periodic points, There is a trivial inclusion AP(f)\subset R(f). Is it true that the closure of AP(f) contains R(f)? is there some reference about the second inclusion.... more »
