    Sets System
AI Thread Summary
To solve the equation AUX = B in P(E), the solution is X = (B\A) U Y, where Y is an element of P(A). For the system with the additional condition A∩X = C, the correct interpretation is that Y should equal C, not X. The discussion emphasizes verifying that this solution aligns with the general form provided earlier. The participants confirm the logic and express gratitude for the clarification.

Let A,B and C be three elements of P(E)
1. Solve in P(E) the following equation : AUX=B
2. Let's suppose that C ⊂ A ⊂ B , solve in P(E) the following system : AUX=B and A⋂X=C


I've already answered the first question , it's X = (B\A) U Y such that Y∈P(A)
As for the second , I thought maybe X=C but I don't think it's right ?

It's not $X = C$, but $Y = C$ (following your general solution $X = (B\setminus A) \cup Y$). Check to see that this works.

Okay,thanks a lot !
 
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...
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...
