Mathematica Definition and 1000 Threads

I only have access to mathematica currently. Regarding specifically its power to solve integrals, is it more unable to solve integrals than others like Maple? If the answer is yes, then I will move to purchase Maple.

Drawing the graph in 3d you see endless "mountains and valleys" which logic tells me there will also be infinite max min points in 2d regardless of where you slice the graph. apparently this is wrong and there is a finite max/min points in R^2/2D. Please note this problem does not have a domain...

I am wondering what's the best option to compute the eigenvalues for such a determinant$$\begin{vmatrix} \sin \Big( n \frac{\omega}{v_1} \theta \Big) & \cos \Big( n \frac{\omega}{v_1} \theta \Big) & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & \sin \Big( n \frac{\omega}{v_2} (2 \pi - \theta) \Big) & \cos \Big( n...

I am interested in knowing how to calculate the gravitational wave (GW) spectrum with inflation as a source, I have some background in inflation but I am not so familiar about calculating the GW spectrum. I am reading a paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/0804.3249) about it, however, a big part of it...

Hello everyone. I am trying to do a 2D Shannon interpolation, but I cannot use a sinc because later on this expression goes in an optimization software that doesn't recognize it. I have defined my own version of sinc as: sincC = Piecewise[{(Sin[Pi* #]/(Pi*(#))), # >= 1}, {1 - (#^2)/6 +...

Can anyone confirm if the following in Mathematica gives an output that is not 1? I'm getting some sort of sinusoid, but I should get 1. k = 2; Plot[k^2 JacobiSN[t, k]^2 + JacobiDN[t, k]^2, {t, 0, 10}] Thanks!

While reproducing a research paper, I came across the following equation, ∂f/∂t−(H(f)(∂f/∂x)=0 where [H(f)] is hilbert transform of 'f.' and f=f(x,t) and initial condition is f(x,0)=cos(x) and also has periodic boundary conditions given by F{H{f(x′,t)}}=i⋅sgn(k)F{f(x,t)}, where F(f(x,t) is...

Wolfram made what I would call a gigantic move: they released the Wolfram Engine for Developers - for zero cost! The idea of the Engine is primarily that you can call and run Wolfram Langauge commands from lots of different sources. I am not the kind of person to automate Mathematica, although...

I know a little bit of MatLab (for example I can solve simple, well conditioned, systems of 1st and 2nd order ODE), but I know nothing about Mathematica. I don't know whether or not start to learn how to code in Mathematica or keep studying MatLab. For example, for CFD (computational fluid...

Does anyone know if it's possible to tell Mathematica to do calculations with non-Abelian groups, such as the quaternions? For example, how do you tell it to do (3 + j)(4 - i)? I would like to extend this beyond quaternions so is there is a way to define arbitrary group definitions? Thanks! -Dan

Why is it when I plot a circle from ##\theta \in [\pi/2,-\pi/2]## I get the right side of the unit circle: PolarPlot[1, {\[Theta], \[Pi]/2, -\[Pi]/2}] ? Shouldn't I get the left side?

Dear friends: It's strange that Mathematica can do the integral of ##\int_0^\infty dx~x~_2F_1(a,b,c,1-x^2)##, however, fails when it's changed to ##\int_0^\infty dx~x~_2F_1(a,b,c,1-x-x^2)##. Are there any major differences between this two types? Is it possible to do the second kind of integral...

Hi PF! I have the following in Mathematica. Notice h[2,x,0.5] gives me an output in terms of x, but when I try to plot this I get errors. Anyone know why this is? I read the error messages but am still unsure why I am not getting a clean output.
