TL; DR: Is this equation true, and how do I prove it? $$ \sum_{k=0}^n \binom{n}{k}(-1)^k(n-k)^n = n! \;\; \forall \;\; n \; \in N $$ Context: I came across this question while thinking about powers of natural numbers. Imagine you have a list of numbers like this: $$ 1^3 \;\; 2^3 \;\; 3^3 \;\; 4^...

I would like to be able to evaluate a function based on multiple Slider values by pushing a Button that creates the function, produces the data, and also produces a plot in the same "GUI" window.

In the Eric Bogle's anti-war song "Welcome Home" (about the Vietnam War) there is a line "I heard old war drums beat.". Is it grammatical or is it licentia poetica?

I have been told that galaxies will never stop rotating because conservation of angular momentum But, there are planets inside of it can travel through dense nebulae and bodies of gas that would cause friction (and probably brake their travel speed through the Galaxy).

Question: Prove or disprove the following statement. If $\{f_n\}$ is a non-decreasing sequence of Riemann-integrable functions on $R = [0,1] \times [0,1]$ so that $f_n(x) \to 0$ for almost all $x \in R$, then $\lim_n \int_{R} f_n \, dx = 0.$ I believe this statement is false. However, I am not ab...

I am confused about what gravitons exactly are.

I was trying to solve exercise III.10.6 of Hartshorne and found this post about it.

To my understanding, most mathematical theories can be simply understood in the view point of Category theory and its derivative theories. But what exactly is the motivation to study infinity category theory? Why should one, for example, look at morphisms between morphisms and so on?

This quote is from Stranger Things season 4, episode 1, 43 minute 10 seconds mark by Fred Benson: Eh, I'm still rooting for my alt. What does 'alt' mean in this context? Maybe it has something to do with the paper, as he showed Nancy ‘The Tigers Lose the Championship Game’ paper while saying th...

It's well-known that if a cardinal is weakly compact, then it is weakly compact in $L$. Seems natural to ask if weak-compactness is preserved for arbitrary inner models. Since I've never heard this, I'm guessing the answer is no, but I'm having trouble finding a counterexample. I have something ...

Could "going after strange flesh" mean the rape of strangers to the city? The Sodomites engaged in the practice of raping their enemies.

If I understand correctly, when a party to a contract breaches the terms in a material way (i.e., repudiation), the non-breaching party can, at its discretion, terminate it, cease performance under it and seek damages, if desired.

The Factor built-in function is usually idempotent, namely applying it twice gives the same result. However, in the following example it is not. Is that expected? Somehow the need to simplify Sin[x]Cot[x] to Cos[x] seems to confuse the code responsible for factoring, so that the result is not ...

It is written into halacha that we are not allowed to assist captives to escape, lest we encourage captors to be harsher with their victims, and watch them more closely. See SA 252:5 for example.

Suppose you have some dataset $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}, y \in \mathbb{R}^{n}$ from some distribution $\mathcal{D}$ (if convenient to obtain a closed form formula, $\mathcal{D}$ can be a Gaussian distribution or something else that is tractable).

I disassembled a cheap tweeter because I wanted to use only the inner part of it since it is just about 5mm tall (1/4 inch).

From a set-oriented point of view, a relation between sets $A$ and $B$ is a subset $\rho \subset A \times B$ of their product. By imposing further axioms (e.g. left-totality, right-totality, symmetry, transitivity, etc.) we may produce a number of useful concepts: (partial) functions, equivalence...

I always wondered since my late high school years, how increasing the voltage can simply be proportional to the flowing current in a resistance.
