you'd look like a tryhard. I started using latex for discrete mathematics/intro to proof class, then I kept using it for abstract algebra, real analysis, PDEs, etc.

I use LaTeX in my Differential Geometry, Real Analysis, and Modern Algebra classes. I didn't start before this year because I was

national averages in asian countries are based on a few top schools, in western its an actual average, so the top schools average grade is barely better than the average. Whites>everyone else. And jews are totally not trying to make a sub-intelligent genology so they can be smartest.

My lecturer was project manager for a sensor that was embedded in the lander. He once said me "...let's hope the new Alenia retrorockets work properly"; he didn't seem very confident.

There's a chance Schiaparelli will smash into Mars.

Still looking for an answer to this:

If C and D are matrices with integer entries satisfying C(D^T) = D(C^T), why is det(iC+D) non-zero?

I wake up in the morning and the first thing I remember is that I have my goddamn doctorate in mathematics, this results in an immediate rush of endorphins and testosterone which will last for the rest of the day. I then get to work writing down the proofs to the theorems that I solved in my head last night. After that I fuck my 10/10 wife while thinking about my research. I then leave without eating breakfast since I no longer require sustenance. Next follows morning lectures gracing plebs with some invaluable insight into my mind and its firm grasp on the most important field of study in human history. The rest of the I spend developing various mathematical structures on blackboards, the results of which will applied to curing all cancers and building thermodynamically efficient cold fusion reactors. As the day winds down I ponder my surreal existence, I have to dig up my degree to remind myself of the reality that I do in fact have a PhD in mathematics. Finally I fall asleep holding my doctorate and 300k salary slip in my arms.

And then I do it all again.

I'm a mathematics undergraduate and I'm doing a bonus-project on stochastic processes. Right now I have gone over the Brownian motion (properties, Lévy construction, filtrations), and I at least want to go over the stochastic integral after this. Any recommendations for other things I can include? Or recommendations for literature?

>>8416227
You could take a look at ergodic theory afterwards. It might be a bit off to the side but you never know.

A reference suggestion for that if you wanted to look at it:
"Ergodic Theory, with a view towards Number Theory" - Einsiedler, Manfred, Ward, Thomas

I have a value of right ascension and declination and need to find "pixel size on the sky" in arcsec/pixel from these (Context is aperture photometry) but I can't find any information about how to do this. Is this just (RA/dec)/1 with both values in arcsec?

I am dumb so I need help with this

Say I have an electric motor that can put out 1492 watts of power (about 2 hp). If I put it on a small bicycle, how can I use this info to determine force, acceleration, velocity, etc..? Say the bike with a person on it weighs 150lbs ( about 68kg of mass)

I know Power = Force x Velocity but then what?

I've tried picking an arbitrary velocity to find Force, but I am unsure what this result represents.

Say friction is negligible and velocity is at 9 m/s. So 1492 Watts = Force (N) * 9 m/s

which leads to Force = 165.7 Newtons.

Is it appropriate to move onto F=ma with this result? That would lead to acceleration = 2.44 m/s^2 but I am unsure of these calculations.

Thanks

Theorem: If there is an isomorphism between the graphs of two molecules, then they are the same molecule.

Prove it, chemfags.

Small fucking world. I was in that lecture.

>>8389942
Hw are you defining "chemical graph" in this case, so that BeH2 and H2O are different? N-1 loops on a node for atomic number N? What about isotopes, stereoisomers, etc?
I saw a book calling itself chemical graph theory once but I'm not aware of any seminal achievements
Group theory, though, is open season

The majority of the people here, at least in my understanding, are those who attend an average or higher standing science oriented university

you made me feel nice but i have to be skeptical, is it realistic that we can cure things as minor as baldness?

Would people even do research for that shit?

all i see is people talking about designer babies and super powers, but what about every day shit? can this shit cure my allergies? will people even care to do research for minor problems? or will they brush them off as being not important enough.

i think CRISPR wont cure shit, not anytime soon, because folks would concentrate on fixing disorders and big issues, not small ones. (and that would probably take longer)

that, and the "ETHICAL" aspects of this thing (like its ok to be high and mighty about having ~pure~ kids, even if they can literally be born with NO FUCKING BRAIN)

I so fucking hope im wrong.

>>8419955
You have to start small and convince people that CRISPR isn't some new meme technology that will be forgotten in a week, but a life changing technology.

Curing baldness would be a good start.

Sure, it forms a protective oxide layer that prevents penetrative rust, but if you are working with nanoparticles (and if you aren't, then you are losing the game) that doesn't help you at all.

Every space program and company has had its explosions. And accidents are bound to happen when you push for new things

That's the reason people love SpaceX though, it's because they're pushing for new innovative tech and what they've developed already is groundbreaking.

Personally though, I am skeptical that they'll develop the mars colonial transporter in the next 5 years, but I would love to be proven wrong

But people love SpaceX because they're pushing for new innovative tech. SpaceX fanboys don't just fap to SpaceX, they fap to Blue Origin too usually
