With the complex velocity convention , differentiation gives . Thus and . Resolving into polar components gives .
Superposition for the opposite-signed pair gives
up to a constant and branch choices. A vortex moves with the regular velocity generated by the other vortex, excluding its own singular field. At , the other contribution is ; at it is the same real number. Hence the pair keeps its separation and translates parallel to the real axis with
for .
For a vortex at in the first quadrant, reflect it across either wall with opposite strength, then across both walls with its original strength. Thus the images are and of strength , and of strength . The potential is
On either real or imaginary axis, is real and the numerator and denominator of are conjugates. Its modulus is one, making the stream function constant on both walls and enforcing no normal flow. A regular entire background flow could be added only with additional far-field data; the displayed image solution is the one generated by the specified vortex and its walls.
For a material volume, conservation of mass and the Reynolds transport theorem give . Constant material density, or equivalently incompressibility with the stated constant initial density, reduces this to .
In an fluid undergoing inviscid flow the stress is the isotropic pressure stress . Momentum conservation for a material volume then gives
Transport and the divergence theorem localize this to
For a steady flow, . For an irrotational flow the vorticity is zero, so the supplied identity gives . Uniform downward gravity is , and constant density permits pulling inside the pressure gradient. Therefore
The Bernoulli invariant is constant throughout each connected fluid region. Without irrotationality the corresponding steady statement generally gives a constant only along each streamline.
The inertia tensor is . The mixed moments vanish by reflection in or . Every diagonal integrand is even in , so its integral over the upper hemisphere is half its integral over the corresponding full ball of mass . A uniform ball's coordinate moments are each , obtained by spherical symmetry and . Hence the hemisphere has each coordinate second moment and
The tensor parallel axis theorem gives with . Therefore
Translation along the symmetry axis changes the two transverse moments but leaves the axial one unchanged.
The total derivative is the unique linear map satisfying
This describes the best first-order linear approximation without choosing coordinates. The chain rule is
The evaluation point in the outer derivative matters, particularly when composing a quadratic matrix map with the exponential.
The product topology is generated by the basis of a topology of open rectangles , with open in and open in . For a fixed ,
Both possibilities are open; checking this basis of a topology proves that is continuous. The analogous map , , is continuous by the same argument.
If either factor is empty the product is empty and connected. Otherwise let be continuous. For each , is constant since is connected. Thus for any fixed . The right-hand side is and is constant in since is connected. Therefore is constant on the whole product. The given characterization proves is connected.
A metric space is a set with a function satisfying , symmetry and the triangle inequality. A subset is open if every has some open open ball contained in .
For finitely many open sets and in their intersection, choose radii with . The positive minimum radius gives a ball contained in the intersection. Thus every finite intersection is open; the empty intersection is , also open.
For distinct points put . The balls and are disjoint: a common point would make by the triangle inequality. This proves the Hausdorff condition.
A singleton is closed because each has a ball of radius avoiding it, making its complement open. Finite unions of closed sets are closed, as their complements are finite intersections of open sets. Hence every finite subset is closed, including the empty subset.
The indicated measurable function is nonnegative. Tonelli's theorem applies without first assuming integrability and gives
Thus is integrable. Fubini's theorem now allows the reverse order. For ,
Consequently
At the quotient has the removable limit ; that endpoint does not create an additional divergence.
For the geometric ratio has modulus less than one, and
Every summand is nonnegative. The monotone convergence theorem therefore permits integration of the sum:
The integral is finite because its integrand is bounded above by , whose integral is one. The displayed paired sums are the even partial sums of the alternating harmonic series; its odd partial sums differ by a term tending to zero. Thus the required equality holds with the usual series ordering. One can additionally evaluate it by :
Grouping into nonnegative pairs supplies the justified interchange; absolute convergence of the ungrouped integrated alternating series is not needed and would be false.
The polynomial is an irreducible polynomial over , so . This intermediate field is real, so it does not contain . Hence has no root in it and adjoining has degree two. The tower law gives
A basis is . Square-bracket adjoining notation in this algebraic example gives the same field as round-bracket adjoining notation.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
