Showed that its monotone decreasing for n>= 3

Therefore its convergent
Assume it converges againt 1+a, a>0, then the sequence [math]\sqrt[n]{(1+a/2)^n}[/math] converges against 1+a/2 but is larger than [math]\sqrt[n]{n}[/math] for sufficiently large n. This is a contradiction since its limit is lower.

so 2^N is the space of sequences of 0s and 1s, and a basis for the topology should be given by cylinder sets, i.e. sets where you fix the first n elements of a sequence and allow the rest to be whatever they want. so definitely not compactly supported.
you should think about product topologies in terms of pointwise convergence. if your sequence is outside an open set and it converges pointwise, the limit needs to be outside the open set. well all you can say about pointwise convergence are things about finitely many elements converging. so open sets will be defined by keeping finitely many elements constant (or unions of such sets).

take a point 'p' in your manifold and a frame at this point. now consider a path starting at 'p' and extend the frame along this path in two different manners. the two moving frames differ by a curve in GL(n) starting at identity. therefore infinitesimally they differ by an element of gl(n) (you just take derivative evaluated at identity). note that we can compare two moving frames like this, but it doesn't make sense to say that a moving frame is constant. it has to be compared against something. connection is a choice of constant moving frames, but it's all expressed infinitesimally.

You're basically asking us to justify category theory since most universal properties are defined in terms of all ovjects. A lot of universal properties are way nicer to work with directly than equivalent definition. For example no one wants to take an actual construction of ring tensors when the universal property directly tells you what you want.
Of course you could still prove everything without category theory but it'd be a lot more painful.

Details in combinatorics trip me up.
Let’s say there are 32 balls in a bucket. Each ball is one of 4 colours (blue, green, red, yellow) so that there are 8 balls of each colour. Within each colour the balls are labelled from numbers 1 through 8.

I get tripped up when I try to sum each 'type' and 'subtype' of combination.

TOTAL combinations: 32C4=35,960
FOUR of a number (e.g. 5555): 4C4*8=8
THREE of a number (e.g. 5556): 4C3*8*28=896
•with a shared colour: 4C3*8*7*3=672
•with different colour: 4C3*8*7=224

TWO numbers repeating (e.g. 5566): 8C2*4C2*4C2=1008
•with different colours: 8C2*4C2=168
•one matching colour: 8C2*4C2*2*2=672
•two matching colours: 8C2*4C2=168

ONE repeat of a number (e.g. 5567): 4C2*8*28*24/2=16,128
•with different colours: 4C2*8*7*6=2016
•with non repeating numbers of matching colour: 4C2*8*7C2*2=2016
•with a repeating number matching colour with a non-repeating number: 4C2*8*7*2*6*2=8064
•two matching colours: 4C2*8*14*6/2=2016
•three matching colours:4C2*8*7*6=2016

The one below is definitely wrong cause I can't get the subtypes to sum to the types
NO repeats of a number (e.g. 5678): 32*28*24*20/4!=17,960
•with different colours: 8*7*6*5=1680
•with one matching colour: 8C2*4*16*10/2=10,080
•with two matching colours: 8C2*4*6C2*3=5040
•with three matching colours: 8C3*4*15=3360
•with four matching colours: 8C4*4=280

Unstable homotopy theory is pretty hard, yeah. Even if you make the reasonable choice and restrict yourself to CW-spaces, you will still find a lot of trouble on your path to any results (just think of the homotopy groups of spheres which one would think should be solved by now but nope!), and the finite complexes are even more ad hoc. I don't know. Maybe it's not that bad but my supervisor pities me, maybe it is really hard. For sure, it's way beyond me. For prerequisites, know the basics of group theory and point set topology, develop some knowledge about homology and cohomology, too, as they will allow you to at least disprove certain claims.

Classifying spaces of groups are pretty important for various reasons. If you take the bundle [math]G \to EG \to BG[/math] for a group [math]G[/math], then first ask yourself the yes/no question "is this group discrete?" and the answer will determine your path.

If the answer is no, then the contractibility of [math]EG[/math] tells you that [math]\pi_n(G) \cong \pi_{n+1}(BG)[/math], so knowing the homotopical properties of the group will give those of its classifying space (and vice versa). An example of this, and a very dumb one, would be the following. Let's pretend we don't know the homotopy groups of [math]\mathbb{C}P^\infty[/math], but we know those of [math]S^1[/math], and we know that [math]\mathbb{C} P^\infty \simeq BS^1[/math]. This tells us the following: [math]\pi_2( \mathbb{C}P^\infty) \cong \mathbb{Z}[/math] and the other degrees give trivial structure. One could of course do this for a group more complicated than the circle and get some more interesting information, but that was an easily verifiable claim about a space that is itself not a group. More generally, we may have a space [math]X[/math] such that [math]\Omega(X) \simeq G[/math], and then we obtain the information carried by [math]\Omega (X) \to \mathcal{P}(X) \to X[/math] from [math]G \to EG \to BG[/math]. However, I don't do this stuff so let's look at the other side!

If the group is discrete, then there's not too much to be extracted from [math]G \to EG \to BG[/math]. It pretty much only tells us that [math]BG[/math] is an Eilenberg-MacLane space [math]K(G, 1)[/math]. However, should we be interested in group (co)homology, this would now become quite important, as one has [math]H_*(G; M) \cong H_*(BG; M), H^*(G; M) \cong H^*(BG; M)[/math], where the stuff on the left hand side is the group (co)homology of [math]G[/math] with coefficients in a suitable module. This isn't an easy thing to compute in general, though, so a little trickery can be used. Assume [math]G[/math] is finite. Then its cohomology splits into a direct sum of pieces, one for each prime divisor of the order of the group. Choosing the coefficients to be in the field [math]\mathbb{F}_p[/math] for each such prime, we kill everything except the [math]p[/math]-component, and this gives us [math]H^*(G; \mathbb{F}_p)[/math].

This is when we reintroduce homotopy theory. If you have ever heard of the Bousfield-Kan completion, this is it. Since [math]G[/math] was assumed finite, it is "[math]p[/math]-good" for every prime, that is, [math]H^*(BG) \cong H^*((BG)^\land_p) [/math], where [math]X^land_p[/math] denotes the [math]p[/math]-completion of [math]X[/math] and all cohomology is with [math]\mathbb{F}_p[/math]-coefficients. We now know that the cohomology of the completed classifying space is isomorphic to the group cohomology of our group (with the same coefficients!). Furthermore, this completion comes with a nice property: [math]X^land_p \simeq Y^\land_p[/math] iff [math]H^*(X) \cong H^*(Y)[/math], so we may simplify our considerations by applying this. Suppose we have a finite group [math]H[/math] such that [math]H^*(H) \cong H^*(G)[/math] and a much more approachable classifying space. Then [math](BH)^\land_p \simeq (BG)^\land_p[/math]!

If we can now decompose [math]BH[/math] in a way that is preserved by the completion, then we have a similar decomposition for [math](BG)^\land_p[/math], and this may be used to compute [math]H(G; \mathbb{F}_p)[/math], which may prove useful when dealing with various bundles like the Borel fibration.

A bit rambly, but that's life.

(And that [math]X^land_p[/math] should be [math]X^\land_p[/math], oopsie!)

That's been on my plan to watch list for a while. Thanks for the reminder.
>Why do you think that reading manga makes you anxious?
Probably takes me back to being 13-14 and having nasty classmates. Sleepless nights made me tired, being tired made me tense and timid, being timid made me get bullied more, getting bullied made me lose sleep. Then add a volume of Detective Conan which I thought would be a good read during the dark night hours, and then all the sudden gore probably formed a connection between feeling bad and manga. Just a conjecture, though.

Even in all that negativity, you still keep trying. It is important not to give up even if everything seems pointless. Instead of some unrealistic goal like Collatz, you should probably set your mind to something less ambitious that will allow you to regain your strength once possessed and reward you with the sensation of learning. If this seems like an interesting direction, I suggest you read Rotman's book on AT, then supplement that with Whitehead and Neisendorfer's books on homotopy theory. Learn for the sake of learning. Whatever fruits your beautiful garden will give you, those are just a bonus. The important thing is to build the garden.
