AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on proving a mathematical equation involving complex variables. Participants clarify that 's' represents a complex number, with 'j' being the imaginary unit equivalent to 'i'. They suggest using an inequality for integrals to establish bounds, specifically noting that the absolute value of an integral is less than or equal to the integral of the absolute value. The conversation also touches on the properties of the exponential function, particularly the expression |e^{-s}|. Overall, the thread emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of the components involved in the equation.

Could you explain what s, \sigma , \ j, \ \omega are? Are they constants, negative or positive?
 
hi ViettDao29
s is a complex
 
Oh... so j is our usual i=sqrt(-1) :-p
Use an inequality for integral that absolute value of integral is less than or equal to integral of absolute value. Then consider that

<br /> |e^{-s}| = |e^{- \sigma}| |e^{-j \omega}|<br /> <br />

Now, what is |e^{-j \omega}| ?

Also recall that \, \left| \int f(x) \, dx\right| \leq \int\left| f(x) \right| \, dx
 
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...
Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagorus'
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...
