Usually when I put in the effort, I can always get an A, and I was really trying my best, but I still got a B. I'm into combinatorics, so I guess a B in analysis is not the end of the world, but I feel pretty bad that I was not able to get an A even with a lot of effort. Combinatorics and algebra were a lot easier.

>> No.14484271

I think the only reason I enjoy mathematics, is that it takes my mind off the general anxieties of life and pain I would otherwise experience through wondering thoughts.
Has anyone ever studied and searched for a relation between math majors and persons who self-harm? The reasoning and feeling brought on by self harm that many online have described, matches very well with what I experience doing math.
I am worried, since it is likely that my life situation will improve, and that would imply that around that time I will lose my focus and passion.

Isn't it just because A has order 4 and B has order 2? Then you take their product.
You can compute their elements explicitly if you want to. Just take the 4 powers of A and the 2 powers of B, and also take the four powers of their product AB. Each of these subgroups overlap at the identity, so the total number of elements is 4+4+2-2 =8.

We could assume that it was true for [math]n - 1[/math] and prove it's true for [math]n[/math], it doesn't really make any difference except for how clean a proof looks.
>>14484232
Well if it was intentional I suppose there is no problem.
>>14484244
Let's note down the main facts you should be able to get from a cursory analysis of the problem:
[math]A^4 = I[/math]
[math]B^2 = I[/math]
[math]AB = - BA[/math] (minus as in the usual minus, not matrix inverses.)
So by performing switches and cancelling out higher powers any matrix in the subgroup can be written as [math]\pm A^n B^m[/math] where [math]0 \leq n < 4[/math] and [math]0 \leq m < 2[/math].
Except [math]A^2 = -I[/math], so we can cross out the [math]\pm[/math] and only work with positives.

When I was first taught induction they used "n" in the statement you're trying to prove and a separate variable (like "k" or something) in the proof, so that this point of confusion wouldn't occur. It's not really an abuse of notation, but I do think it's more clear what's going on when you use a different variable.

You're forgetting the critical step of showing it is true for a specific case.

Let's say you show it is true for n = 0.
Then when you assume it is true for n and show that that imples that n+1 is true too, then going back to your first case, where you showed it is true for n = 0, so now it's true for n = 1, and so it's true for n = 2, and so on and so forth.

Can anyone verify my solution to this ODE?

With [math]\displaystyle \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{dv}{dx}\frac{dx}{dt} = v \frac{dx}{dv}[/math]
[math]\displaystyle \int_{v_0}^v vdv = a\int_{x_0}^x \left(1-\frac{x}{x_0}\right)^4dx - b\int_{x_0}^x dx[/math]

[math]\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}(v^2 - v_0^2) = \frac{a x_0}{5}\left( \frac{x}{x_0} - 1 \right)^5 -b(x-x_0) [/math]

[math]\displaystyle v = \pm \sqrt{ \frac{2a x_0}{5}\left(\frac{x}{x_0} - 1\right)^5 - 2b(x-x_0) + v_0^2} [/math]

With my boundary condition of [math]v_0 = 0[/math]

[math]\displaystyle v = \pm \sqrt{ \frac{2a x_0}{5}\left(\frac{x}{x_0} - 1\right)^5 - 2b(x-x_0)} [/math]

Annoyingly, when I tried checking it on mathematica, I can only get the same result by setting C[1] = b*x0 using
DSolve[v[x]*v'[x] == a (1 - x/x0)^4 - b, v[x], x] /. C[1] -> b*x0

To be pendantic, you haven't fully solved the ODE, you've just reduced it from a second-order one to a first-order ODE: to solve it would be to find an expression for x as a function of t.
With that said, your derivation looks good -- see if you can figure out when the original system chooses the positive vs. negative root.

You know how you can add two sine terms like this:
sin(A)+sin(B)=2sin((A+B)/2)cos((A-B)/2)
How do you do this for three:
sin(A)+sin(B)+sin(C)?
I tried to follow the analogs from the derivation and break the angles down to addition terms for the sine
(A+B+C)/4,(A+B-C)/4,(A-B+C)/4, (B+C-A)/4 but it just makes a huge mess.

in math, there are these things called "rings". in the ring of 10, for example, 4, 14, 24, 34, ... are all "equal" to each other because they all have the same remainder upon division by 10, so you can replace them with each other when youre doing arithmetic. for example, if you want to know what the last digit of 423521095 + 1564725623 is, all you have to do is add the last digits of each. positive 3 and negative 7 are equivalent to each other as well, because they both have the same reminder upon division by 10: positive 3 divided by 10 is 0 with a reminder of postive 3, and negative seven divided by 10 is negative 1 with a remainder of positive 3.

There isn't a simple way to do this for more than two waves.

i think i can help with that anon.
1. before starting the exam, quickly flip through and see how many questions there are, which are multi-part, which want long writing sequences, proofs etc, and estimate how much time you have for each question.
2. read over each question, gauge how easy it will be to solve, or if you can solve it or not. if you aren't sure, mark it with an asterisk and go to the next question, and do the same.
3. after the last question you now have an idea of which questions you can easily solve and which you cant.
4. do the questions you can quickly solve first, then the ones that look a little more time consuming, then the ones you are unsure of for last. while doing this always be making sure that if you hit your self-imposed time limit on the x minutes/question, you will leave it there and move to the next.
5. once you have the easy questions done and the longer ones, finish any that you ran out of time to do before and had to move on.
6. then attempt to solve the ones you marked with an asterisk, but make sure to give time to try and solve each one, so dont go to your first asterisk question and sit there pondering for 20 minutes on that one question. move between them and try to solve as much as you can from each of them.

as for finishing exams faster, you should try printing out a series of easy, medium, and hard questions from the book, arrange them into an exam format, then try to solve them while sticking to the alotted time. use the same principles above for prioritizing questions.

then just try and be mindful of yourself while doing it. try and notice where you are spending a lot of time, and how you might be able to improve it. eg instead of reading the question over and over, write everything you know and is given, and all the relevant ways to manipulate that data that could get you your result.

try and make a habit of checking the time at least every 5 minutes, and force yourself to move on to the next question

So for some [math]\log_n(x)[/math]
[math]\displaystyle n^{\log_n(x)} = x[/math]
Or inversely
[math]\displaystyle \log_n (n^x) = x[/math]

Just like
[math] \sqrt[n]{x^n} = x[/math]
or vice-versa
[math]\left(x^{1/n}\right)^n = x[/math]

or
[math] \arcsin(sin(x)) = x[/math]

etc.

is it like the range x can be in to be >= log3(31) and <= log3(31)? its for when x is an integer

>> No.14489398

>>14489307
It means finding numbers which the result can't be greater or less.
As for what lower and upper bounds you want, it depends on what your constraints are, like for example if you want integer lower and upper bounds,

3^2 = 9 and 3^5 = 243
So for [math]2 < \log_3(31) < 5[/math]

Do note that in the case of integers, there is also the Greatest Lower Bound and the Least Upper Bound, which for the example above is

3^3 = 27 and 3^4 = 81
So [math]3 < \log_3(31) < 4[/math]

Like I said, the specific bounds you might be looking for depend on your problem, you might instead want something like this
3^3.1 = 30.14
3^3.2 = 33.63

[math]3.1 < \log_3(31) < 3.2[/math]

The inequalities don't have to be strict either, especially for problems where you don't know the answer.

>> No.14489431

>>14489398
Of course, for the reals, the answer itself is the least upper bound and the greatest lower bound, similarly if the actual answer was an integer such as in [math]\log_3(27)[/math] which is 3^3.

That's the implication of the inequalities not being strict.

>>14489313
So yeah, the range your answer can be in.

>SU(2) and U(1) groups
This is basic stuff you learn in a second quantum mechanics class since SU(2) is a double cover of the rotation group and U(1) is equivalent to charge conservation. Any graduate level quantum mechanics textbook covers this stuff.

Georgi has a book Lie algebras in particle physics that might be exactly what you're looking for though.

For a more mathematical perspective I liked Brian Hall's textbook on Lie Groups and representations.

Was the valence band supposed to the the 1s2...3d10? I had previously thought that the valance band is the most oxide (was that the word?) so it's the easiest ring for electrons to be pulled out so I picked 4s2 4p2.

I do have a quick question on the side.

For a GaAs semiconductor, if we replace Ga with Silicon, then Silicon would be an donor right? Since it comes with an extra electron (relative to Gallium). If we replace Ga with Zn, then Zn would be an acceptor? (I know that we can't do group 2 with group 3 but just for the sake of the question).

Valence band should be the most outside band. Although the electron filling order follows that graph (based on the energy level of the orbitals), electrons are lost from the most outside band first.

So for a project, we're trying to figure out how well our model fits our data. The data is in half-hour increments per day, and I have a month of days. I found % error for each interval, then averaged along the days (e.g. 11:00AM has avg 5% error over the month). I also took the standard deviation of the error. In my perspective, to find times when our model is consistently poor, we should look at times with high error and low standard deviation, right?

IIRC, it's basically a way to generalize a result. if the hypothesis applies to case 0 and also applies to case n, then it should apply to n+1 too. then you'd have to prove case 0 and that there is some pattern where case n+1 is somehow related to case n.

As for your question, you need a massive trauma in your testes that breaks off the seminal duct that connects to the prostate. A friend a of mine went into ball busting fetish for a few years and ended up infertile.

if that duct breaks do I have to worry about any kind of (serious) internal bleeding or infection?
