    Graduate Generating Rings with Ideals: The Possibilities and Implications

    No proper ideals = Simple rings. If I remember correctly, if an ideal contains 1, then that ideal generates the ring or something like that. Can't think of anything else at this hour.

    Graduate I'm going to prove every single theorem in topology

    Dude, you should use your college library if you want to study a subject. Owning 6 textbooks on point-set topology is overkill and bad for your wallet. Diversify your subject matter to other subjects like linear algebra or elementary number theory.

    Undergrad Describing Curvature of a Non-Uniform Curve Using Second Derivative Average?

    Variance? I don't even know why you would be talking about curvature of a set of points.

    Graduate Study topological field theories

    Doesn't Witten have some lectures on TQFT?

    Graduate What Are the Symmetry and Asymptotes of the Folium of Descartes?

    Hints: For the first, (a,b) corresponds to a point t_1 . (b,a) corresponds to a point t_2 . For the second, consider how x\rightarrow-\infty and y\rightarrow\infty.

    Graduate Functional determinant approach to perturbation

    Are you saying det = \prod_{n} \lambda_{n} = exp(-\zeta (0)) ? How did you get \prod_{n} \lambda_{n} = exp(-\zeta (0)) to work? The article at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeta_regularization doesn't say anything about it. Do you have another reference to zeta regularization?

    Graduate Functional determinant approach to perturbation

    Um, shouldn't your infinite product have some additional conditions to ensure convergence?
