Homework Statement Determine the set of points at which the function is continuous. F(x,y) = arctan(x + √y) Homework Equations Perhaps the chain rule? The Attempt at a Solution I derived it, but the solution in the back of the book is nothing like what I expected. It involves e and...

Thanks. How do you calculate the orders?

I think it is meant to be in the form I posted

What are the 4 roots of a function y^2 = x^3 + x + 6 (mod 5 * 9^2)? I don't know where to start a problem like this. The roots mod 5 are (0,1) (0,4) (2,1) (2,4) (3,1) (3,4) (4,2) (4,3) if that helps

There is not a conservation of mass, but there is for energy.

If there is not a conservation of mass, then what happens to higgs-bosons? Are they destroyed, or decay into something else (if that is even possible...)?

So there are four square roots for an elliptic curve represented by an equation something like this: y^2 = x^3 + x + 6 (mod 5) How would one go about calculating these?
