MHB Lecture Notes from Cambridge and Oxford

ModusPonens
Hi.

There's a great collection of lecture notes on mathematics and physics form Cambridge University that is linked on reddit.

https://www.reddit.com/r/math/comments/csgigv/collection_of_lecture_notes_on_mathematics_and/

It has notes on almost every topic, beginner, intermediate, and advanced.

There's also a great collection of notes from Oxford University. The Oxford link is to their home page, and the Cambridge link is to a cloud service.

Cheers!

The Cambridge collection has been updated with more lecture notes. They include a bit of everything, and also fill the previous voids in algebraic geometry, astrophysics, and condensed matter physics.
 
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...
I'm interested to know whether the equation $$1 = 2 - \frac{1}{2 - \frac{1}{2 - \cdots}}$$ is true or not. It can be shown easily that if the continued fraction converges, it cannot converge to anything else than 1. It seems that if the continued fraction converges, the convergence is very slow. The apparent slowness of the convergence makes it difficult to estimate the presence of true convergence numerically. At the moment I don't know whether this converges or not.
