So I let A={a_{}ij} and B={b_{}ij}. Then I know that A^{}T={a_{}ji} and B^{}T={a_{}ji}. A typical element of the product B^{}TA^{}T={b_{}jia_{}ji}. The sum would therefore be: B^{}TA^{}T={\Sigmab_{}jka_{}ki} from k=1 to n. Is this correct?

I'm most likely going to double major. By the time I graduate I will have done Calc I-III, Differential Eqns, Linear Algebra, Real Variables, and Complex Variables. I would love to re-take these courses in a very rigorous, highly-theoretical program (like Michigan's 295-296-395-396 sequence)...

I have looked into and am very interested in the Michigan Honors Math Program (specifically the 295-296-395-396 sequence). I am planning to apply to college right now, and I need help picking schools. 1) Do other schools have a similar honors math program? 2) Disregarding admissions...

Any students who are interested from the program (it's like a shelter for abused kids) will be welcome.

I took the ACT on a whim last December and did very well on all sections, except I believe I could improve on the essay (I received 9 out of 12 possible points). That was the first essay I have ever written in 30 minutes (our class periods are 55 minutes long), and I believe I can do better...

I was planning to take Math 270 (Differential Equations with Linear Algebra) at the local community college this summer. However, there will be no course this summer, so I was thinking about studying it on my own. I looked at the text that the school sells (only new copies), Elementary...

For a school project, I am going to visit a local summer program for abused children and am going to bring supplies for and guide them through several simple (elementary to middle school level) experiments and presentations. The one problem is, it is supposed to inspire these kids. I made a list...

Between the four of us we have about $100 saved up. However, we might be able to raise more money.

My biology teacher has assigned us a post-AP project that must involve service to the community and science in some way. My group has decided to do a "science camp" over the summer with disadvantaged elementary and middle school children. We will attend summer programs for these kids and give...

I'm not sure yet, but I'll probably go to grad school. But will I be as prepared for grad school if I go to Podunk?

I am going to apply to colleges next year and have been told by my counselor to find a list of 4-8 schools that are "good fits." What factors should I consider to find a good fit? I can pretty much picture myself doing well at any type of school. All I am really want is an academic challenge (I...

to clarify, i am qualified for well-known/top schools (i.e. 36 on ACT, good grades) but am willing to explore other options essentially i want a college that will give me a good foundation in physics (i.e. grad school would be an option), but also has good humanities.

Carleton in Minnesota (Northfield I think)

I have been very bored at my high school. I took the hardest math and physics classes at my high school my freshman year (Calc BC and Physics C:E&M/Mechanics) and I am now a sophomore taking classes at the community college. However, I have pretty much exhausted the courses there. Given my...
