AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights additional math notations used by ObsessiveMathsFreak, including symbols for infinity, superscripts, and subscripts. Specific examples include the notation for infinity as ∞, and the use of [sup] and [sub] tags for superscripts and subscripts, respectively. A mathematical expression is provided to illustrate these notations, demonstrating how they can be combined. The conversation also touches on the correct representation of multiplication and subtraction symbols. Overall, the thread emphasizes the importance of precise notation in mathematical expressions.

BRAVO TO ObsessiveMathsFreak

Add to that list (as Greg said in his announcement, omit the spaces):
infinity: &infin ;
superscript: [ sup ] (text goes here) [ /sup ]
subscript: [ sub ] (text goes here) [ /sub ]


Voila:

y(t)=y0+∫0∞θ4

generated by this, minus the blank spaces:
y(t)=y[ sub]0[ /sub] + &int ;[ sub]0[ /sub][ sup]&infin ;[ /sup]&theta ;[ sup]4[ /sup]

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'
I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
