    Does anyone have some expertise in stochastic processes?

    Would anyone be able to help me with a problem involving martingales and another problem dealing with Poisson processes perhaps? I'm completely stuck on my last homework assignment in the class this term. Thanks for anyone who can help.

    Calculus 1 (I'm taking the class in a week.)

    Before you take the class, honestly knowing the main topics (WELL, possibly to memory) of pre-calculus and algebra 1 and 2 are essential, but refreshing yourself before and while you take the course isn't a bad idea (that's what I did when I took Calc 1 at least). Then, once you start, try to...

    Programs MATH/EC double major, would it be worth it to minor in CS?

    Hi everyone! I'm 4 math classes from finishing my math major and 2 econ classes away from finishing my econ major, so pretty happy about that. But, I keep thinking to myself, "CS seems like it would be ridiculously useful if I ever wanted to work as some sort of data analyst or something of that...

    Is there a limit to mathematical progress?

    I'm not sure myself.

    Is Retaking Elementary Analysis Worth It for Applied Mathematicians?

    So, I took elementary analysis this summer and I got a 'D,' which was very annoying simply because half of our class got 'F's and it would have made such a big difference if my teacher would have just curved the class. Anyways, I'm not interested in taking any other courses which require...

    Should I take Elementary Linear Algebra before Analysis?

    I have yet to take Elementary Linear Algebra MATH 341, but I am currently signed up for Intro to Analysis MATH 413. I'm about to complete Elementary Analysis MATH 315. I could take MATH 341 and MATH 413 at the same time, but I'm already signed up for two other economics classes that I feel I...

    Laziness, Lack of Motivation, Neither, or Both?

    I started out majoring in Physics for my freshman year as an undergraduate, but now (a junior) I've switched over to Mathematics. I found the way introductory was taught to be far to boring and problem specific (like finding the torque of a handle for instance). I enjoy theory and...

    How hard does this test look to you?

    None of the questions seem like they are necessarily very hard to answer, but the time that you have to do each question would definitely be difficult since so many of the questions are proof based.

    Post Your Grades for Spring Term

    I only had two classes that were being graded this term. I received an A in Elem. Differential Equations and a B in Intermediate Micro-Economic Theory.

    Take Intro to Topology or Intro to Analysis?

    Thanks for the thoughts! I'll probably register for analysis then

    Take Intro to Topology or Intro to Analysis?

    I'm about to take my higher upper division classes to complete my mathematics major. I've decided that I'd like to take either Intro to Topology or Intro to Analysis as my topics of choice, along with the required Linear Algebra course that most graduate schools are looking for in applicants...

    What Are the Key Connections Between Math and Physics in Mathematical Physics?

    Some people call it physics that simply is more difficult or reliant on mathematics. I was wondering if anyone could enlighten me a bit more as to what types of maths and physics areas are generally equated with mathematical physics.

    First term of foundations of physics vs the second term

    Alright. I'll just go over the textbook for a few hours the week before class starts and leave it at that. Thanks!
