SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between variables P and q in Erdman's Extremal Corners problem, specifically regarding the derivation of lambda values. The participant struggles to establish a valid relationship between P and q that results in a corner, ultimately failing to derive lambda greater than 2. The conversation highlights the need for clarity in mathematical notation and definitions, as misunderstandings arise from vague references to equations and variables.

and tried to find relationship between P and q that aren't the same to have a corner.

But as you see it doesn't give me a good value for lambda and I can't derive lambda>2 . Is it correct approach? or should I test and other way?

Thanks

Your posting is incomprehensible to other readers: we have no idea at all what you mean by ##p## and ##q##, since they were not mentioned anywhere in your problem.

Also: I am sure that your statement ##\text{Erdman's Equation} = \partial F / \partial y'## is meaningless: an equation is not a quantity.

Please re-write your question in meaningful form.
