Graduate The Exponential of an infinite sum
I have a problem that arises in quantum field theory. It involves a problem in combinitorics and about the theory of connected graphs. Essentially, I am trying to prove an identity involving an exponential of an infinite series with the ways to decompose an integer into the sum of integers...- WastedGunner

Graduate 2m car near lightspeed fall into 1m hole?
The car is experiencing acceleration due to gravity, therefore it is not in an inertial frame and you cannot use special relativity. Nothing is broken- WastedGunner

Does AB = I Imply BA = I for Square Matrices?
I don't think this is enough. You can't prove this only using the group properties. Prove instead that (BA-I)b=0 for any nx1 matrix b Then show that the components of BA-I are 0 by choosing specific vectors b- WastedGunner

To prove right inverse implies left inverse for square matrices.
I am pretty sure that is not going to get you the answer. I believe you will be better off showing this lemma: Let A and B be nxn matrices such that AB=I, then (BA-I)b=0 for every b nx1 matrix (a vector) Then you can prove the result easily by considering the components of (BA-I) by...- WastedGunner

Graduate Integral equation with unknown kernel?
Could you state one for general f and g?What I would do first is assume we can separate K(x,t)=F(x)G(t) And also assume that f and F are differentiable. Then you find that \frac{f(x)}{F(x)} = \int^R_x G(t)g(t)dt let \hat{f} = \frac{f(x)}{F(x)} and taking the derivative with the FTC you...- WastedGunner

Graduate Is the Derivative of a Multivariable Function Lipschitz?
Thanks for your reply. I know that the existence of partial derivatives does not guarantee a differentiable function. I have been unable to construct a counter example, the condition that all those function have a uniform Lipschitz constant is a very strong condition. Also, on the note...- WastedGunner

Graduate Is the Derivative of a Multivariable Function Lipschitz?
Here is a tough one: Say we have a multivariable function f:R^n -> R and for any x, and direction u, the function g:R->R defined as g(t)=f(x+tu) has that g'(t) is Lipschitz with the same Lipschitz constant (say M). For special cases, taking u to be any basis element we see that every partial...- WastedGunner
