I read a manga about a girl and an alien. The girl found the alien injured so she took care of it. Then it turned out that alien can eat human waste, like pee. Long story short, they have babies in the end. Please help me find it, it's cute and spicy.

What is the rank of a matrix whose entries come from the set of integers? Is it still the number of independent columns? For instake, take the matrix $$\begin{bmatrix} 6 & 3 & 2 \\ 12 & 6 & 4 \\ 18 & 9 & 6 \end{bmatrix}$$ Is the rank of this matrix equals $1$ since the first column generates the ...

I have a question on detecting the outliers in a time series like PPI, CPI, inflation,...etc.) Which method should I use? How can I precisely detect these outliers in a test or a method? Please mention about all methods. Thank you.

For my ESP32 project I want to use a NCP1117 3.3V LDO and soon the question came, which capacitors are suitable if the LDO is driven either by USB or a 5V power supply while the cable length is about 2 meters. From what I understand, the output capacitor is more important than the input capacitor...

I am in a situation that might seems a bit odd. I published my research work in a pretty good journal. However, I believe that peer review wasn’t very strict (in my opinion). And this work is basically my supervisor’s best article ever published. Quite some time passed after publication and now I...

Let $X$ be a variety over a field $k$. The étale fundamental group of $X$ fits into the exact sequence: $$1 \to \pi_1^{\text{geom}}(X) \to \pi_1^{\text{arith}}(X) \to \text{Gal}(\overline{k}/k) \to 1,$$ where $\pi_1^{\text{geom}}(X) = \pi_1(X_{\overline{k}})$ is the geometric étale fundamental gr...

Can the functional form of $G$ in the expression $\frac{V}{\sqrt{gH}} = G(\frac{d}{H})$ be rigorously derived from first principles, where $V$ is the limiting wave speed of a line of falling dominoes, $H$ is the height of the dominoes, $d$ is the gap between adjacent dominoes, and $g$ is the acce...

Is there a way to prove there's only one viable definition of the connectives, which is their truth functional definitions?

I'm really trying find out more about how the early Church understood Communion, or the Eucharist, or the Lord's Table. One of the crucial aspects (for me) is whether they saw the Eucharist as a sacrifice/oblation (as the Catholic or Eastern-Orthodox do). If the Eucharist truly was a sacrifice, t...

I'm trying to create a specific kind of abstract line design that consists of parallel lines with a 3D look using Inkscape.

I Believe the answer is when the set is closed in the sense of standard topology (we exclude $\mathbb{R}$) itself. Examples: Point sets have a minimum, and they are closed. Closed interval also have a minimum, which is simply the lower bound $[a,b]->a$ If my guess is right, how do I prove it,...

Classically, there’s discordance in the notation of the dual of a vector space over a field $K$. Of course we can all agree that the algebraic dual is the vector space of linear maps from $V$ to its base field. As such it can be represented as $$\operatorname{Hom}_K(V, K).$$ But notations are ple...

For an undirected graph with one connected component and distance matrix given by the shortest path between nodes, I would like to embed the nodes in a high dimensional Euclidean space where all distances are preserved. I have no requirement on the number of dimensions. Can classical multidimensi...

I have an Elops 100 bike from Decathlon, and I thought that perhaps it is possible to adjust the height of the steering column.

Let $(X, \mathcal{M}, \mu)$ be a measure space and denote the Lebesgue measurable subsets of $\mathbb{R}$ by $\mathcal{L}$.

In a previous post I want to compare the last character of a string with other characters I asked how to compare the last character of a string with another char, and the solutions offered have solved my problem.

It is general consensus that Cartesian product is distributive over set difference. However, I am unable to identify a flaw in this example. Let $A$ be a non empty set. Let $X=\prod_{i}^{\infty} A$, i.e. an infinite Cartesian product of A. Let $Y=A$ and $Z=A \times A$. Then, $Y - Z=Y$ and $X \tim...

I was looking at the definition of the imaginary unit $i$. We define it by $i^2=-1$. But what does square even mean in such context? It is easily proven that no real solutions exist to this equation. Then we say we define $i$ as a new type of number such that the equation is true. Then $i$ is not...
