« first day (1418 days earlier)      last day (3605 days later) » 

9:00 PM
Someone on Facebook just commented that I was one of the kindest people he met in his years in Georgia. Sad .... :D
 
@TedShifrin "Wow, you must know awful people!".
 
i.imgur.com/G3h0Dlj.png and i.imgur.com/Uj2CYIk.png..... uh ? where is the $2$ gone ? @PedroTamaroff
 
I think he wasn't being sarcastic, @Pedro :D
 
I'd gladly share my name if it was just me .... but i'm not allowed to :/
 
He's a Brit and an atheist (and a mathematician). He was attacked several times by idiots in the lovely South of the US.
you're not allowed to? Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire, alors?
 
9:01 PM
? @TedShifrin
 
@Pedro didn't want your full name ... just a first name
 
@TedShifrin SIGH. Argentina might be one trainwreck of a country, but we don't have such hateful people like some parts of the US. =/
 
I sure hope that's the case, @Pedro.
 
@TedShifrin I know, but i'm not allowed (i'm only 16, so i still have to follow my parent' rules :D )
 
Actually, such hateful people are pretty much everywhere in the US, sadly.
Ah, I see @Hippa ...
They should see how many of these 14-year olds are here!! :D
I presume you've told them how unfriendly we all are ... :D
 
9:03 PM
I saw lots of them xD
what am I even doing here ugh
 
@Hippalectryon $$\begin{align}&\sum_{n=1}^N\frac{S_n}{n+x^2}-\sum_{n=0}^{N-1}\frac{S_n}{n+1+x^2‌​}\\ &=\left[\frac{S_N}{N+x^2}+\sum_{n=1}^{N-1}\frac{S_n}{n+x^2}\right]-\left[\frac{S‌​_0}{1+x^2}\sum_{n=1}^{N-1}\frac{S_n}{n+1+x^2}\right]\\ &=\frac{S_N}{N+x^2}-\frac{S_0}{1+x^2} +\sum_{n=1}^{N-1}S_n\left(\frac1{n+x^2}-\frac1{n+1+x^2}\right)\end{align}$$
 
@TedShifrin Any idea on my problem with the two images before ?
 
@Ilan I think this is the end, I am listening in loops to Eviatar Banai
 
@Hippalectryon What are you looking at? You're giving little chunks only.

Q: Uniform convergence of $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\sin(n x) \sin(n^2 x)}{n+x^2}$

ORBOT Inc.I'm not sure wether or not the following sum uniformly converge on $\mathbb{R}$ : $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{\sin(n x) \sin(n^2 x)}{n+x^2}$$ Can someone help me with it? (I can't use Dirichlet' because of the areas where $x$ is close to $0$)

 
9:05 PM
@Hippalectryon Yes the $2\times\cdots$ has a typo.
 
Oh ok
 
@Hippa you are 16?!
 
Note that I commented on it. I just corrected things.
 
@Studentmath Is that shocking ?
 
@Hippa surprising for some reason, no idea why
 
9:06 PM
@Studentmath How old are you?
 
18..
 
I skipped two classes :3
 
amateur
 
Studentmath is young, too ... all those years of chemistry and now math.
 
@Hippalectryon What does that mean?
 
9:07 PM
What problem with the two images, @Hippa?
 
@blue Heh, why?
 
oh, in high school that might be bad, attendance was mandatory for me
 
@TedShifrin Nvm it's ok now
 
I skipped one year, @Pedro ... went from 3rd grade to 5th grade.
 
I started early but I always stayed in high school, mandatory attendance.. but, well, can't say I regret it, friends and all that
 
9:08 PM
You guys make me feel extra-antique ...
 
@TedShifrin Since I was born in July, I actually am one year behind, I mean if I had been born one week before...
 
@TedShifrin Don't worry we'll find you a nice museum :P
 
Funny @Pedro, just the other way around
 
Right, @Pedro. I think I started a bit young because of birthdate, too. And then I skipped a year, so I graduated high school at 17.
But I'm still antique around you all ... :D
Thanks @Hippa. Comme tu es gentil!
 
@PedroTamaroff :o how do you do edits with only 1 char ? I require at least 10 ...
 
9:10 PM
@Hippalectryon I have supahpowerz.
 
This is a lovely question: prove that removing two squres from an 8x8 chessboard leaves a board that can be partitioned into 1 by 2 rectangles iff the two missing squares have opposite colours
(Holds for every even nxn chessboard)
 
@Studentmath 'can be partitioned into 1' ???
 
Ah, that's the converse of the usual problem, @Studentmath. Cute.
no, @Hippa: into `$1\times 2$ rectangles'
 
Thanks god i don't do maths in chinese
 
ROFL
 
9:14 PM
 
@Hippa what @Ted said
Oh Jesus christ that looks scary
 
I always find it funny to see all the Latin letters and arabic numerals embedded in all that Chinese.
 
@TedShifrin Do you know what kind of transportation I can take from the airport to your place?
 
walk
 
9:16 PM
@Pedro: There is a shuttle that runs to Athens, but I'll come get you. If you're really following through on this, send me an email with particulars before we get too far.
 
crawl, if you have to
 
@skull: Even the athlete that Pedro is, 85 miles is a long walk. Especially in Georgia torrid heat :(
 
icic
 
@TedShifrin Oh, wow.
 
@TedShifrin But he has supahpowerz
 
9:17 PM
So he says, @Hippa, but those are localized.
Sorta like a local ring.
 
@TedShifrin I will look into arriving on August 3rd on the morning, is that good?
 
Where are you guys even going ?
 
I guess that gives me 2 days to recover from my trip. OK.
 
@r9m math.stackexchange.com/a/825805/150347 how did you find the $\dfrac{2\sqrt{x}}{2+n\sqrt{x}}$ upper bound ?
(i've probs already asked but i've forgotten)
 
@Pedro: I assume you'll have a cell phone that works in the US? Make sure we trade #s at some point.
 
9:21 PM
and that's how @Ted began phishing people on MSE
3
 
@TedShifrin Hmm... I should activate the roaming or whatever it is called.
 
I had to get a different cell phone to use in France last summer. Sadly, the screen cracked on the plane on the way home :(
rolls all 6 eyes @Hippa ...
 
What happened to eye 7 and 8 ?
 
@Pedro watch out from freak dears, they've planty of those in georgia
 
You mean deer @Studentmath?
 
9:23 PM
@TedShifrin found you
 
I mean deers, yes..
 
Yes, they're all over here, @Studentmath. They've eaten/destroyed hundreds of dollars of plants I've planted, too :(
 
sigh I swear I used to have really great English.
@Ted Really?
 
Yup. And I almost had a bad accident driving home from Atlanta at night 15 years ago when one tried to jump in front of me on a dark road when I was driving 65 mph.
 
The best I get to see are some sheeps roaming in the fields, never seen a deer
Jeez.
 
9:25 PM
@TedShifrin In France we have that and boars :3
 
Well, you can come visit, too ... although I'll probably be moving soon.
 
Wild boars do it here.
 
I haven't seen wild boar ... even in the wilds of Aix :)
 
They aren't that wild, though I've seen them kill wolves.. too much time in our tiny forests
 
Wolves or boars ?
 
9:28 PM
Boars kill wolves. Or well, what wolves we have here, slightly big dogs.
 
@TedShifrin If I leave from Newark, my option is some local airport there in Atlanta?
Athens?
What was the name? =P
 
LOL, @Pedro, Atlanta is one of the largest and busiest airports in the world. There is no longer a functioning airport in Athens. :(
 
@TedShifrin So Atlanta it is.
 
@TedShifrin WHAT? Athens must then truly be at the top of mount Olympus :-)
 
Say what? @skull
 
9:35 PM
" There is no longer a functioning airport in Athens. :("
 
We're not in Greece here, @skull. That would be far more attractive.
 
Just an analogy...
 
@Alizter How did you generate your previous images of dyhedral groups ? All i get for D_100 is einsteink.freezoy.com/Results/Gradient.png (it's colored based on the kind of symmetry and its number )
Good way to generate gradients though :c but unexpected
 
whoa ... @alizter had a little square for each element, and therefore for each product. What's this doing?
 
Would I be right in stating that f is continuous at x on a first countable space iif whenever we have a sequence x_n -> x it follows that f(x_n) -> f(x) ?
 
9:49 PM
Yes @Moses
 
@Moses Did you try to write down a proof?
 
good for @Pedro :P
 
@TedShifrin instead of having distinct colors (red, green, ...) for R0, R1, S0, ... i gave the R_n a red color and S_n a blue color
It's more and more red/blue as n grows
 
Sure haven't @pedro
 
@Moses Well, do it. =)
 
9:51 PM
I don't understand, @Hippa (as usual).
 
@TedShifrin :c
 
Too tired now, it's quite late here...
 
Oh, you mean the reflections are all red, but, given the ordering, they get increasingly red.
But $R^2=e$ for any reflection, so the diagonal should be whatever color the identity is.
 
That's the table I use
But with differnt colors
 
Hi all
 
9:53 PM
Hi @mick
 
I improved my latest questions , it should be very clear now.
 
hi @mick
 
@TedShifrin do you get it ?
 
but @hippa, in those tables you see what I said ... in yours I don't
 
@hi @Hippalectryon
 
9:54 PM
i'll generate D3 you'll see
 
oh, what's black?
 
hi@TedShifrin
 
@TedShifrin in mine or wolfram's ?
 
in yours?
 
Where do you see black
 
9:55 PM
which link should i post first ? the sytem of equations or the sign of the derivatives ? :)
 
on the diagonal of the lower right and on the antidiagonal of the upper left @Hippa
 
@Chris'ssis: okay, I've added the derivation to my answer.
 
Decisions, decisions @Mick
 
That's D3
Mine and wolfram's
There's no black, it's just dark
 
From calculus 1 we learnt the three conditions for continuity at a point of a real function f:R -> R...the limit exists, f is defined at the point and limit of f is equal to f a t the point...is there additional structure on R^n other than first count-ability which allows for this definition?
 
9:56 PM
If you're talking about first countability, you're in very weird topological spaces, @Moses, not just $\Bbb R^n$.

Q: A system of $n$ equations , how does it behave for growing $n$?

mickI read about the system of $n$ equations in the link below. I wonder how it behaves for growing $n$. Does it converge ? http://math.eretrandre.org/tetrationforum/showthread.php?tid=889 Here it is explicit : Consider the polynomial $f_n(x) = x^n + a_1 x^{(n-1)} + a_2 x^{(n-2)} + ...$ Now solve...

hi @robjohn
 
ok @Hippa: It looks black. So the pure reflections are listed last in your ordering, and the rotations are all listed first.
This is actually quite cool, @Hippa.
 
@TedShifrin :D
 
I don't usually think in terms of Cayley tables.
 
needs attention ...
 
9:58 PM
@robjohn yeah, the integration by parts solves that immediately.
 
@Ted Okay but I'm just interested as to why the functions f:R -> R has continuity defined in this special way...so I was wondering what additional structure allows for it, since I know it at least has first count-ability...
 
special way? what's the non-special way, @Moses?
 
nonspecial : because chuck norris said so !
 
$\Bbb R$ has tons of extra properties. It's second countable, metric, ....
 
@Ted the one that doesn't have those three conditions :/...So are you saying that they all contribute to the definition of f:R-> R at a point?...
 
10:01 PM
ok maybe the other link will have more success :)
 
so in a general topological space we define continuity by saying $f^{-1}(U)$ is open for every open $U$.
In metric spaces, we have the $\delta$-$\epsilon$ definition.

Q: Real-analytic periodic $f(z)$ that has more than 50 % of the derivatives positive?

mickIm looking for a real-analytic function $f(z)$ such that for any $z$ $1) $$f(z+p) =f(z)$ With $p$ a nonzero real number and where $z$ is close to , or onto the real line such that $z$ is in the domain of analyticity. $2)$ $f(z)= 0 + a_1 z + a_2 z^2 + a_3 z^3 + ...$ where more than $50$ % of ...

 
The sequential definition works, yes, in any first-countable space. As @Pedro suggested, you can prove equivalence in $\Bbb R$ or in that generality.
It's not a totally trivial proof, by the way. I really don't know what you're asking.
@mick: Why use $z$ if you're not in complex land?
 
@TedShifrin is that not what @Alizter used ?
 
Since you're talking about positive, I assume you're doing $f\colon\Bbb R\to\Bbb R$?
 
10:05 PM
@TedShifrin math.stackexchange.com/questions/843031/… what is he talking about ?
 
@Ted I think those three conditions are just a different way of stating the delta epsilon definition of continuity...
 
He's saying that the distribution of binomial coefficients (the entries of Pascal's triangle for large $n$) look a lot like the normal distribution, the Gaussian. @Hippa
Yes, @Moses, every metric space is first-countable.
 
Okay thanks
 
@TedShifrin Bur how does that help ?
 
I have no earthly idea.
 
10:09 PM
xD
 
USA is goal behind...but my tv broke...
 
LOL @Moses
Mine isn't broken, but I'm not watching.
 
I don't have a TV :c
 
What a waste...
 
I just have an overheating laptop :D
 
10:10 PM
stop breathing on it, @Hippa
 
-_____________________-
 
I'm basically burning my hand when i put it on where my laptop was 5 mins ago
 
wow, that's bad
go to bed
are you keeping the laptop somewhere it can't get air circulation? like on your bed instead of a hard desk?
 
Maybe i'm in bed already :P
 
10:12 PM
When you wake up, your laptop will be a different person
 
Kidding
 
that explains it ... that's bad for laptops
 
hehe
It's just on my work table
I usually stick some plastic stuff under it to make air flow easier
 
no, no, that impedes the flow of air
 
Nah
It does work
But i forgot it this week
So i can't do it
 
10:14 PM
Did you try pouring water on your laptop to cool it down?
4
 
@ryagami >8c
 
you're going to explode that laptop with those temperatures
 
@Hippalectryon :O Ouch! You better give your laptop a break--it may die on you if you keep it running at that temp.
 
@anorton @TedShifrin It's not like if i have a choice :/
 
turn it off and go to sleep, @Hippa
 
10:15 PM
^^ truth.
 
@Hippa c^2+16>=8c, not >8c
 
(Mine runs normally at 64 deg C, and I think that's too hot--I keep it on a cooling pad.)
 
Your CPU could almost boil water @Hippalectryon :)
 
heya mr @Kaj
 
@KajHansen Good idea :P
 
10:16 PM
We'll miss you while you have no computer, @Hippa.

Hello everyone
 
Hello, @Kaj
 
Who starred that :o
hides
 
Hello Kaj
 
::looks around innocently::
 
10:16 PM
@Hippalectryon Shit son.
 
I've starred one item in all my time here
 
Tell yo PC to chill.
 
@PedroTamaroff He won't listen :/
 
Well, I'm signing off. Bye now!
 
See ya
 
10:17 PM
Seriously, @Hippa, that is a definite fire hazard. Turn it off.
 
My computer was working like crap, continuously freezing. I bet it was a smooth procedure. At any rate, I did this
 
Night, @anorton
 
Now it's working like a charm.
 
Let's try burning some paper box :c
 
@TedShifrin, why do we call them lines of curvature and not curves of curvature?
 
10:18 PM
@KajHansen Alliteration son. All allies are alarmed, armed and awaiting air assitance.
 
I dunno, @Kaj ... blame the French. They had "lignes de courbure" before we did :D
 
That sounds like litterature
:D it CAN melt plastic
 
@Hippalectryon FOR SUPERMAN'S SAKE TURN IT OFF.
 
Can it melt human flesh?
 
Seriously, @Hippa. Turn it off. We'll see you tomorrow.
 
10:20 PM
Oh ok if it's for Superman's sake
i'll be off then ;)
@ryagami It can cook it, i'm pretty sure
 
Cool.
Unlike your laptop.
 
@ryagami When i put my hand near it I get the same feeling as when i touched a iron by error
 
TURN IT OFF. Bonne nuit, @Hippa.
 
Good night everyone :D
 
I use imagination land :)
How about an answer ?
 
10:22 PM
I haven't looked seriously at it, @mick. Sorry.
It's time for me to go cook dinner.
 
@Kaj with the right pressure it will boil water indeed.
Can also cook an egg.
 
@Ted, use Hippa's laptop
 
good point, @ryagami
 
@Studentmath, with the proper elevation, my laptop could boil water.
 
He can turn it into a rather effecient machine if he only used it's heating powers for good.
@Kaj point taken.
 
10:23 PM
we could have a serious class in thermodynamics here, @Studentmath
 
@Ted if the laptop will last long enough, mayhaps
@Kaj we can say the same for my freezer too.
 
Reminds me of using vacuum flasks back in the day @Studentmath. Hydrocarbons with fairly low vapor pressure while under vacuum would boil rather violently, yet the outside of the flask would be ice cold.
 
Takes me back to high school senior-year advanced chemistry lab, @Kaj.
 
@TedShifrin lame :)
 
@robjohn can you delete this chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/16217307#16217307 ? There's some private info of mine disclosed
 
10:26 PM
ok, I'm outta here to cook dinner. You all misbehave without me.
 
@Kaj ahhh, cool indeed..
 
Bye Professor
 
@G.T.R I've deleted it, but moderators and SE employees can still see it.
 
@robjohn it's fine, thank you
 
@Chris'ssis finding the right integration by parts is not so easy.
@mick what's up?
 
10:33 PM
glad you ask ! how are you ?
Im not getting answers to my recent questions , maybe you can help me out ! :D
@TedShifrin will do
 
@mick I've been busy offline a lot recently... I would love to get back to answering questions.
 
@robjohn my 2 links ( 2 recent questions ) here will be a good exercise :)
Btw I wonder guys , does anybody knows how biostatistics looks like usually ??
 
@Hippalectryon $D_{100}$ is a large group. Each element may be a pixel, hence the gradient like image.
 
@Mick what do you mean?
 
@Hippalectryon Here is $D_{100}$
 
10:40 PM
hello gentlemen
 
Hello lady
 
@skullpatrol how are you?
 
@Charlie fine thanks
and you?
 
@skullpatrol fine too
does anyone here knows about householder reflctors?
anyone?
:'(
