Euclid had a flaw in his proof of Infinitude of Primes since he was not privy to Unique Prime Factorization #630 Correcting Math Sorry about this for this becomes like a CSI detective story mystery with alot of subplots and channels. It is a better "spy story" than any spy mystery novel. Its ending is finally coming to front and center stage. Its ending is not happy but sad, for not only did most of the mathematics community unable to deliv... 4 Jul 2010 17:44
JSH: Scary sense of responsibility I use Usenet to talk out ideas, which I repeat a lot as there are all these posters who I used to call attention parasites who stalk my postings--for attention--who accuse me of posting JUST for attention, when I work out problems through posting. And the benefit of that was shown again recently when I focused on ... 5 Jul 2010 04:34

Mathematics offers innovative weapons for fighting terrorism Safety in Numbers Mathematics offers innovative weapons for fighting terrorism http://www.sciencenews.org/view/feature/id/60711/title/Safety_in_Numbers On the surface, fighting terrorists with mathematics sounds absurd. Yet some mathematicians and computer scientists are devising equations and algorithms that ... 7 Jul 2010 00:25
Find the smallest group satisfying... I need a help to find the smallest group(s) G with the following properties: a) G is of odd order; b) G is supersoluble; and c) the mean order of a conjugacy class in G is greater than 6.82. Thank you. ... 4 Jul 2010 14:28
The Math Behind IQ Tests IQ is inversely proportional to the length of your penis. Calculate your IQ more accurately using this premise. This explains why women are smarter than men. ... 4 Jul 2010 12:16
Binomial Distribution, Stochastic Dominance, Fixed Mean, etc. Hi all, My short question is the following: Fix a natural number mu>0. Let X be a binomial random variable with parameters n and mu/n. So the expectation is mu. Prove that if k<=mu, then Pr[X>=k] decreases as n increases. I verified this for k,n up to 100 using matlab. But proving it seems nontrivial. ... 4 Jul 2010 18:49
appending the new axiom to the Peano Axioms that precision defines finite versus infinite #629 Correcting Math Now, curiously enough, this new axiom appended to the existing Peano Axioms strengthens the Natural Numbers as defined by those axioms. New Axiom: define finite-Natural Number as all less than 10^500 (the largest meaningful number in physics) and define infinite Natural Number as all those equal to or larger ... 4 Jul 2010 03:39
infinity on the small scale between two integers and infinity on the large scale #628 Correcting Math Funny how infinity on the large scale, such as infinity of counting numbers, yet with defining infinity as starting with 10^500 really does not stir up the mathematicians like a hornet's nest. Sure a few will come out of their hive or clam shell and take a peek at what is going on, but then right back to the ivor... 4 Jul 2010 03:39
EINSTEINIANA: THE FUNDAMENTAL NIGHTMARE (FREQUENCY) = (SPEED OF LIGHT) / (WAVELENGTH) If the observer stands on the surface of a celestial body with a substantial gravitational field, or if, in the absence of a gravitational field, the observer accelerates towards the emitter, then he finds the frequency of coming light INCREASING, and this is experim... 6 Jul 2010 02:29 |
