    Generating the Borel-algebra from half-open intervals

    Thank you. Somehow I missed that.

    Generating the Borel-algebra from half-open intervals

    Thank you for your answer. No, the half-open intervals has to be on the form of [a,b), so any union of those half-open intervals (that is not disjoint) will also have form [a,b).

    Generating the Borel-algebra from half-open intervals

    Hi everybody! I have been asked to show that the Borel-algebra can be generated from the set of half-open intervals of the form [a , b) where a<b. I know that the set of open intervals of the form (a,b) where a<b generates the Borel-algebra and thought I would go about showing that the to...

    Showing the uniform convergence of a gaussian function-like series

    I only have maple, and it is unable to evaluate the sum. Does anybody have another idea?

    Showing the uniform convergence of a gaussian function-like series

    If I may add another question to the above, are the two sets equal for ε→0?

    Showing the uniform convergence of a gaussian function-like series

    That is a convincing argument, although I have a hard time visualizing the difference between the two sets, when ε→0.. With regards to the original topic, I have another question. We have shown that the series converges uniformly, which is all I needed to show, but i would also like to know to...

    Showing the uniform convergence of a gaussian function-like series

    Got it! Thank you very much, LCKurtz. For my personal interest, would someone care to comment on whether or not the sets \mathbb{R}\backslash\ \left\{ 0 \right\} and \mathbb{R}\backslash\ \left] -\epsilon,\epsilon \right[ where \epsilon>0, are the same?

    Dimension of the image of a linear transformation dependent on basis?

    Thanks for your fast response - Your right. The entry in column 3 row 1 should be a 0 and not a 1. Which makes \text{Rk}(\underline{\underline{A}}^n) = \text{Rk}(\underline{\underline{C}}^n) for all n\in\mathbb{N} . Would someone care to comment on whether or not the dimension of the...

    Using substitution in an inductive proof

    Okay, so if my proof consisted of proving, that n_1 < n_2 and then using the "induction" used in my previous post, it wouldn't complete the proof that n_k < n_(k+1) for all integers, k?

    Using substitution in an inductive proof

    I am to prove something inductively. Can one substitute as follows? For the inductive part, assume that (*) n_k < n_(k+1) In order to show that this implies: (**) n_(k+1) < n_(k+2), Can one then simply make the substitution k+1 = s in (**), yielding n_(s) < n_(s+1)?
