Is $|A \setminus B| = |A| - |A \cap B|$, where $A$ and $B$ are finite sets, true? I have been unable to prove this or find a good reference on cardinality of set differences.

Hi guys I have a statement that may be true or false. I believe it is false but I cannot prove or even show by example my claim. If $U$ is open in $R^N$ then $U= \cup _{n=1} ^\infty U_n$ where each $U_n$ is open in R. I think this is false because I know that even for $X \times Y$ not every ope...

Let f be a function defined (piecewise) on the interval [1, 2015) by the formula: f(x)= (2/k(k + 2)) , for x β [k,k+1), where k=1,...,2014. Find the area of the region bounded by the graph of f, the x-axis and the lines x = 1 and x = 2015.
Given that f is analytic, under what conditions is $g(z)=\overline{f(z)}$ analytic? Does this explanation make sense? : $g'(z)=lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \dfrac{g(z+h)-g(z)}{h}=lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\dfrac{\overline{f(z+h)}-\overline{f(z)}}{h}=\overline{f'(z)}$ Therefore, g(z) is analytic when $g'(z)=\...

While reading Q&A on SO, i found one user who is behaving strange so i checked his profile and found that he is kept asking question and giving the answer of his own asked question, even when they are not really helpful(both question and answers have low quality) and he is accepting as answer. Ev...
Hint for solving the following integral: $$\int \frac{2r}{|1-r^{2}|^{\frac{3}{2}}}dr$$? My attempt: I tried putting $u= \frac{1}{\sqrt{|1-r^{2}|}}$ then $du = \frac{r}{(1-r^{2})\sqrt{|1-r^{2}|}}$, but not working. Can someone help me in solving this question? I would be happy to get some hints.
How can I prove that $2^{32}$+1 is composite number using Miller-Rabin primality test.I can't find a solution which verify the hypothesis of theorem.Thank you!
Attached is a brief mockup of what I need to create. The div not only needs to skew on the bottom, but the next row will need to skew to the top. Is there a clean way this can be done using CSS? I've tried some CSS solutions ( e.g http://jsfiddle.net/mXLgF/ ) but can not get this effect. Each o...
Suppose that we have two data points which tell us about the output of some function f(x): (0, 50) (10, 150) We know that the function is quadratic (so it's something like ax2 + bx + c). The question is: how do we estimate the parameters a, b and c in such a way that the resulting function ma...
If I was to use the Green's function method to solve the ordinary differential equation $$Ly=f(x)$$ Would $L$ have to be Hermitian, either way please can you explain why?
I was given a sum s, then I expressed it using sigma notation as you can see below. Now, I am supposed to find the closed form values for the said sum as shown in eq.2, but I am stuck at eq.1. I don't know how to deal with the highlighted part, am I forgetting something or did I make some mistake...
I would like to fin the residue of the function $$\frac{g(z)}{cos^{2}z}$$ at $z_{n}=(n+\frac{1}{2})\pi$, where $g$ is analytic. I tried the Limit formula for higher order poles and it fails. What other method can I use?

Further we have the following set of hypotheses, H0 : Οx = Οy against H1 : Οx 6= Οy. (a) Write down the joint likelihood under ...
So when looking at functional sequences in terms of uniformally convergent, I am struggling to translate the definitions into examples. I understand that $f_n=\frac{x^2}{n}$ is the sequence $f_n$={$x^2$, $\frac{x^2}{2},$ $\frac{x^2}{3}...$} However how does $f$ relate to $f_n$. If i have a defi...
How can I calculate $$\int_{\lvert z-i \rvert = 2} \frac{1}{\cos^2(z)}$$ My first attempt was to use residuals: I have figured out that $z=\pm \pi/2$ is a pole of order $2$, so I tried to apply this formula, but the limit diverges. I have also tried to write $f$ as Laurent-series to get $a_{-1...
I don't get this, I am asked if the following $X_t$ is a brownian motion or not. $Z$ is a standard normal variate. $X_t=\sqrt{t}Z$. I s$X_t$ a Brownian motion? Answer is apparently no and one of the reasons is that the variance of $X_t-X_s=$ is $(\sqrt{t}-\sqrt{s})^2$. But I get $t-s$ as th...
It seems obvious, but somehow I find it difficult to prove it in an arbitrary metric space. How can I proceed in this case? Thank you for any help.

How do I prove that $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n^s}$$ diverges fos $s<1$, by estimating its partial sums?
How do I integrate: $\int_{\mathbb{R}} (S_t - K)^+ \phi(t) dt$ where $\phi$ is a normal density and $S_t$ is a geometric brownian motion? I know my answer should be $\Phi(d_1)$, where $\Phi$ is the normal CDF and $d_1$ is the $d_1$ appearing in the Black-Scholes price of a European option.
For Example, Can we assume that the incentre of a pedal triangle is the orthocentre of the triangle on which the pedal triangle is constructed in all cases?
Consider the following recurrence relation $T(1)=1$ $T(n+1)=T(n)+β\sqrt{n+1}β$ for all $nβ₯1$ The value of $T(m^2)$ for $mβ₯1$ is $(m/6) (21m β 39) + 4$ $(m/6) (4m^2 β 3m + 5)$ $(m/2) (m^{2.5} β 11m + 20) β 5$ $(m/6) (5m^3 β 34m^2 + 137m β 104) + (5/6)$ My attempt : I've used counter exam...
How can i proof that $x^5 + 7x^4 + 2x^3 + 6x^2 - x + 8$ is irrudicible in $\mathbb{Q}$? I can't use the Eisenstein's criterion and I tryed to put this polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}_3$ and $\mathbb{Z}_5$. Can you give me some advice please?
Suppose $A$ is a 4 by 4 matrix with the characteristic polynomial $P_A(\lambda) = (\lambda-2)^4$ with the minimal polynomial $m_A(\lambda) = (\lambda -2)^2$. This tells me that that the Jordan form with respect to the eigenvalue 2 (the only eigenvalue) is $4 \times 4$ size matrix and the largest ...
Suppose that function f:[0,1)->R is uniformly continuous on [0,1). Prove that the function f is bounded (i.e. that range(f) is a bounded set)
Let $f \in \mathbb Z[x]$ be irreducible and suppose $f(x)$ has two roots in $\mathbb C$ with product $1$ . Then is it true that degree of $f$ is even ?
I need to show whether or not the maximum of two martingales is also a martingale. Originally, I thought yes. But supposedly the answer is no. So as a counter-example, let $U_i$ be $iid$ $unif(0,1)$, $X_0 = 1$, and $$X_n = 2^n\prod_{k=1}^n U_k.\tag{1}$$ I already know that $(X_n)$ is a martingal...

Does this series converge uniformly or not ? sum from n=1 to infinity of (nx-1)/n^2 in the interval of [2,5] I know i can use the the Weierstrass M-test can be use to show if a series converges uniformly but how would i show that my series does not converge uniformly ?

Is there any routine to decide which one of the duplicate questions should prevail? The one which has been in existance the longest? It would probably not be good if both were accidentally shut down because they were each others duplicate.
I have some questions I feel like saying "Me Too!!!" to and some that are interesting enough so that I would like to keep myself posted on developments like this and this. Would be awesome if I didn't have to try writing a Python script to notify me of changes on the page OR having to bookmark t...
I've got to prove for any vector given, $\vec{x} = [x_{1}, ..., x_{n}]^{T} \in \mathbb{C}^{n}$ that it's true that: $\left | x_{1} + ... + x_{n} \right | \leqslant \sqrt{n} \cdot \left \| x \right \| $ Please give me some hints for that. I know that in this case: $\left \| x \right \| = \sqrt{\le...
I'm trying to prove that the Cantor set is equal to a certain set of 'escape points' for a mathematical feedback system. In this proof I'm going to need the fact that every element of the Cantor set has a base-3 representation in which only 0's and 2's occur. However, I'm having a hard time with...
I'm trying to figure out a problem on inner space products: Les S be the space of $C^1[-1,1]$ functions, and: <;> $\mapsto \int_{-1}^{1} f'(x)g'(x)dx$ Decide if <;> is an inner product over S. To decide if this is an inner product I'm going through the axioms, and I can't show this one...
