    Graduate Would classical physics not exist without probability?

    Nobody,asked would "quantum physics not exist without probability". Classical physics would exists without probability but some of its important parts (like thermodinamics) would be severely cripled I think.

    Undergrad Is the First Digit of a Sequence of Numbers Always Periodic? (without prefix)

    I understood what was being asked. The last digit of 2^{2^n} is always 6 (easy to prove that). In binary numeral system that means that the number can be always represented as "1...111".It can be shown,that any sequence formed of digits at any fixed place in between ,can't be periodic.And...

    What Are Grue and Bleen and Why Do They Matter?

    No,not at all. For instance,I *know* that number \pi must be of Blue color,and e is a Yellow fellow.

    Graduate Prove Injectivity of x^x Function?

    You pro-mathematicians certainly know *all rules * of your game.And We computer scientists must obey it without objections :smile:. Maybe,I'll be hang for telling you this but most of us consider only polynomials over Q-field truly elementary functions :wink:

    Graduate Prove Injectivity of x^x Function?

    mathwonk,this is strange to me ,but if that's really definition you're right (thank you!). composition of standard elementary functions x,e^x,and ln(x) creates xx.Indeed,I thought elementary functions were those obtainable from standard elementary functions only by means of finite number of...

    Uncomfortable when it seems people are staring at you?

    Link doesn't work. :confused: In my part of Europe she fills out the size 6 comfortably :biggrin: Are we talking of the size for the same thing(s)?

    Graduate How Many People Actually Understand QM?

    IMO,this has been probably the best answer to OP's question so far! :approve:

    Graduate Prove Injectivity of x^x Function?

    No,xx is not really exponential function. ex is exponential and transcendental function,but is classified as elementar function. OTOH,xx is trancendental,but nonelementar one. "Miscellanous transcendental" function ?What does that mean? Anyway,I think it's a beautiful function with many...

    Graduate A Question to Trouble Even the Best of You

    Ah,yes,yes,...:smile: To me it makes sense to start with 199 and find "minimum" prime-sequence of 10 terms with spacing 210 : 199, 409, 619, 829, 1039, 1249, 1459, 1669, 1879, 2089 . But it took me longer time ,about 10 seconds:-p

    Undergrad Is the First Digit of a Sequence of Numbers Always Periodic? (without prefix)

    Conversion into binary numeral system may help you to prove that bn can't be periodic.

    Since when do you work in a library?:biggrin:

    Graduate Questions About Electromagnetic Radiation from Electricl Discharge

    Than apply it. You have my permission . I think you don't need any QM in the work you are interested in.Is this good news to you ?:smile: Are you going to analize something like the relaxation of the Hertz dipole,with breakdown of air?
