Hello! I am a bit confused about the first Sylow theorem. So it says that if you have a group of order ##p^mn##, with gcd(n,p)=1, you must have a subgroup H of G of order ##p^m##. So, if I have a group G of order ##p^k##, there is only one subgroup of G of order ##p^k## which is G itself. Does...

Hello! (Wave) We consider the following problem. $$Lu=f(x) \text{ in } \Omega \\ u|_{\partial{\Omega}}=0$$ I want to show that if $c(x) \leq -c_0<0$ in $\overline{\Omega}$, then it holds that $\min\{ 0, \frac{\min_{\Omega}f(x)}{-c_0}\}\leq u(x) \leq \max_{\Omega} \{ 0...

Hawking area theorem says that area of black hole generally never decrease. Penrose process says that energy can be extracted from black hole. Energy extraction will decrease mass? if yes then if mass is decreased then will area also decrease? I am confusing things here :(

According to DeMorgan’s theorem (break the bar and change the sign), the complement of ܽa⋅b+c⋅d is a'+b'⋅c'+d' Yet both functions are 1 for ܾܽܿ abcd 1110. How can both a function and its complement be 1 for the same input combination? What’s wrong here?I honestly have no idea. I mean, shouldn't...

I know that for rigid bodies only the work-energy theorem states that the net work done on the body equals the change in kinetic energy of the body since a rigid body has no internal degrees of freedom and hence no other forms of energy such as potential energy. Is there a most generalized form...

Hi I need a little help in my homework. It is not a direct problem to be solved. Rather I am supposed to find an application of Noether's theorem. All the article or papers I have found are very difficult for me to understand. In fact, I still don't understand any application of Noether's...

Hi, I wonder why wronskian must be constant. I know that p(x)W[u1(x),u2(x)]=constant, according to the Abel's theorem, but wouldnt there a special case that W[u1(x),u2(x)]=c/p(x). Then for this special case, W[u1(x),u2(x)]=/=c and satisfies Abel's theorem. Is it ok to ignore this special case?

I'm curious if anyone has ever simulated the infinite monkeys on typewriters using a computer, and managed to generate short sentences or phrases that have appeared in books/print media before. That would demonstrate the effectiveness of the infinite monkey theorem.

Hi All, I would like to know if is there any problem to present and prove a theorem and a Lemma (in this order) and after that use this theorem and this lemma to prove a corollary (which is simpler to prove and not so important as the theorem). I have looked up in some papers but with no...

I was looking at the proof of Lagrange's theorem (that the order of a group ##G## is a multiple of the order of any given subgroup ##H##) in Wikipedia: I understand this proof fine, but I was wondering, instead of finding a bijection between cosets, is it enough to find a bijection between an...

Hi, One silly thing is bothering me. As per one lemma, If a, b, and c are positive integers such that gcd(a, b) = 1 and a | bc, then a | c. This is intuitively obvious. i.e. Since GCD is 1 'a' does not divide 'b'. Now, 'a' divides 'bc' so, 'a' divides 'c'. Proved. What is bothering me is ...
