In D&D 5e Inspiration can be spent to create an advantage. My group introduced a house rule:
If you fail a d20 roll you could've used Inspiration on, but before DM narrates the effects of this fail, you may spend inspiration to reroll. It doesn't count as advantage, and if you rolled with disadv...

Building on the concept of positive definite operators${}^1$—denoted $A>0$—a linear map $\Phi:\mathbb C^{n\times n}\to\mathbb C^{k\times k}$ is called strictly positive if $\Phi(A)>0$ for all $A>0$. It is easy to see that this is a special case of what is commonly dealt with in quantum informatio...

Looking for a book about a boy travelling in space with a wolverine. That is all I can remember. Read in the 1960s, so could be written in, I would guess, the 1950s or 1960s. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Given two binary strings $x, y\in (0,1)^*$ such that $|x|=|y|$, then the set $$\delta{(x,y)}=\frac{|\{i\in[|x|]:x_i\neq y_i\}|}{|x|}$$ is called relative hamming distance.
Given $x\in (0,1)^*$ and $S:$= a collection of binary strings, define $$\delta_S(x)=\min_{y\in S, |x|=|y|}\delta(x,y).$$
