    Best Introductory Abstract Algebra Books for Aspiring Number Theorists?

    Yeah Artin! Thats the book! Best book on AA I've seen. He uses matrices to demonstrate the AA. And we all know how useful and applicable matrices are. Not much on number theory though. But, there are Lots of proofs, Lots of problems, and lots of clear explanations. I do not know much...

    Prove a^2+b^2+c^2 ≥ ab + ac + bc | ABC

    **Sigh** I miss the dinosaurs. -ss :smile:

    What is the solution to a^3+b^3+c^3 = 495, a+b+c = 15, and abc = 105?

    OMG...LOL! I miss the dinosaurs.-ss

    Prove a^2+b^2+c^2 ≥ ab + ac + bc | ABC

    This is like... a^2+b^2 >= ab, right? take (a-b)^2 >= 0. (a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab. so a^2+b^2 >= 2ab >=ab. so now u want a^2+b^2+c^2, so take (a-b-c)^2, and (a+b-c)^2, etc... and do the same sort of thing, a bit trickier though.

    Does anyone know anything concrete about the application of nonlinear chaotic dyamical systems to psychology? I have come to find out that there is a substantial amount of research being done on this. I read some articles today where people were trying to apply this to dysfunctional families...

    Coin Flip Paradox: Is it Finite or Infinite?

    not quite 50/50 Did you know that getting H or T on a coin flip is not actually 50/50? Its more like 51/49 in favor of the side facing up when u flip it. So, next time yer playin games for money, remember that!
