@Huy I get disappointed when I couldn't solve one of those tricky problems

Balarka Sen

@UserX first show your proof

Anonymous

*Cannot

UserX

@BalarkaSen it's brute forcing the table :P

But I can't do that for higher orders. What did you have in mind?

Balarka Sen

Shhhh @Mike

Mike Miller

Ok.

UserX

5:15 PM

@MikeMiller they're all order 2 I think

Mike Miller

@UserX Yes. Why?

Huy

@AshwinGokhale: I think people should do what they enjoy doing, as long as nobody else gets harmed.

Balarka Sen

prove it @UserX

Hippalectryon

@Chris'ssis Any new awesome discovery ?

@Chris'ssis Except the one with the frac parts

@Integrator Are those the ones who are very fond of solving those integration problemds?

Balarka Sen

@MikeMiller i know that an algebraic topologist doesn't really care about loglogloglog x/logloglog x + O(logx) stuff, Mike.

Huy

@Integrator: I am not sure what you are trying to tell me with those links.

Chris's sis

@Hippalectryon What do you mean?

Mike Miller

I'm not an algebraic topologist.

Balarka Sen

5:16 PM

i won't bother you about it.

@Huy You are right and yo are always right

Balarka Sen

@MikeMiller heh

i thought you were

Mike Miller

Nah.

UserX

@MikeMiller because I can see it from the table lol. Anyway, bbl 1h30m

Mike Miller

Everyone needs to know algebraic topology. I just know it.

Integrator

@AshwinGokhale Kind of

@Huy they are the ones who solve most of those tricky problems

Balarka Sen

@UserX forget the table. classify all groups of order 2^167

Now we'll see if you can use the table

Huy

@AshwinGokhale: I wouldn't want them to stop if that's what they enjoy doing. :)

@Huy chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/18864851#18864851

Mike Miller

@BalarkaSen You can't even classify those.

Huy

5:17 PM

@Integrator: I see.

Integrator

@Huy :)

Mike Miller

Should have asked him to classify those of order 35.

Balarka Sen

@MikeMiller sure i can. semidirect products.

Anonymous

@Huy Yes sir!

4 hours ago, by Chris's sis

$$\int_0^1 \int_0^1 \int_0^1 \left\{ \frac{x y}{z}\right\} \left\{ \frac{z x}{y}\right\} \left\{ \frac{y z}{x}\right\} \ dx \ dy \ dz$$

Mike Miller

5:18 PM

@BalarkaSen No, there are more groups there than semidirect products.

Integrator

@Huy Don't forget @venus

Balarka Sen

oh ok some are nontrivial extensions

Chris's sis

@Hippalectryon that one seem nice, isn't it? Newly created. :-)

Hippalectryon

Indeed

Mike Miller

yeah, and good luck classifying those.

@integrator even she is one of those people :D

Integrator

@AshwinGokhale and @Chris'ssis too

Mike Miller

like I said, 35 is a good number to give him. :)

Integrator

@AshwinGokhale Kind of!

Mike Miller

well, probably not. I guess he doesn't have enough technology yet.

he needs to forget about cayley tables

Alizter

Maybe I am over-analysing but all these topology jokes about doughnuts and coffee cups are a bit silly. If a Mathematician needs coffee to run then they could not have the abstract thinking required for algebraic topology if they were drinking a doughnut. Thus making them able to see the differences.

Integrator

@AshwinGokhale ?

@AshwinGokhale I'm new here! Just 25 days!

@Integrator That makes two of us :D

UserX

@BalarkaSen is that a challenge?

Integrator

@AshwinGokhale :)

@MikeMiller perhaps we should explain him this case. otherwise he can't eject that bullshit brute force method out of his mind.
