I just want to make sure that I am doing this right or if I am on the right track.

To find a map f :R ---> R so that ker f ={(x,y): x^4=y^4}

pi_R: (x,y) ---> {(x,y): x^4=y^4}
pi_R: x ---> {R(x): x^4 is an element in X}
pi_R: Y ---> {R(y): y^4 is an element in Y}

Define f: R x R ---> by f(x,y) = x^2+y^2

i.
To find ker f
ker f: {(x,y): x^2+y^2

ii.
To show that equivalence classes of ker f are concentric circles.

f(x): {y:(x,y) E x^2+y^2} (E stands for the element symbol)
f(y): {x:(x,y) E x^2+y^2}

if x=y for n >= 1

f(x): {y:(x,y) E nx^2+ny^2}
f(y): {x:(x,y) E nx^2+ny^2}

f(x)=f(y)
x=y, there is a (x,y) E ker f
then there is some y=f(x) for all y E Y f(y)=y

iii.
Find a bijection between the equivalence classes of ker f and {r:r E R and r >= 0}

ker f=ker r
f=r, the function is one to one

if y E Y, such that y=f(x)... onto?

I thougt ker(f) was a subset of the domain of definition of f which is subset of R here...so how can you put pairs (x,y) in R ?

I guess I don't put pairs (x,y) in R, then.

Do I use the fact that...

pi : R ---> R/ Ker f is the (surjective) projection map?

Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
