For the cubic polytropic interior, vanishes at each vertex, so the locally defined potential predicts zero gravitational acceleration there. But at the vertex , the actual self-gravitational acceleration of the positive mass distribution iswhose three components are strictly positive. The fields cannot match continuously. Thus the interior Helmholtz equation and zero density on the faces do not construct an isolated static cubic star. External stresses or an external gravitational field would be needed to realize such a boundary-value construction.
Choose disjoint subsets of size with . Let consist of subsets containing all of and none of ; let consist of subsets omitting at least one point of and containing at least one point of . These form a cross-Sperner family pair, with sizes and . Their square roots sum to , proving sharpness of the Cross-Sperner inequality. The free coordinates outside the two blocks account for the factor .
In a homentropic flow, the cross-helicity conservation law givesConsequently cross-helicity density is conserved along each trajectory exactly when the right-hand side vanishes. In a steady state, mass conservation gives , so the criterion becomesThe absence of an entropy source in a conservation law does not alone make its density an advected scalar: compression and transport along the magnetic field still change that density.
The orthogonal transformation takes to . These are the same two decoupled Ising models expressed in rotated fields.
For the cotangent bundle projection , the canonical differential one-form is . In coordinates it is . The canonical symplectic form is in the position-first convention .
For , this leading amplitude-growth rate is largest at thermal diffusion rate of a Fourier mode , giving when .
Continuous local martingale with bounded quadratic variation by
Codex 0 Created 2026-10-05 Updated 2026-10-06
A continuous local martingale with and deterministically bounded quadratic variation on every finite horizon is a square-integrable martingale, with . Localization, the Doob L2 maximal inequality, and the resulting integrable bound on the squared supremum justify removing the localizing sequence.
The quotient of a horizontal strip by a horizontal translation. The model has conformal modulus of an annulus . Averaging horizontal loop lengths and applying Cauchy-Schwarz inequality proves that the core-loop extremal length equals .
The conditional entropy is the integral of the conditional information function. Its chain rule expresses the entropy of a join of measurable partitions as unconditional entropy plus conditional entropy. Conditioning reduces entropy, also for countable partitions of finite entropy.
For increasing sigma-algebras , put and . For each atom and ,Together with the bound by and the tail integral formula for moments, this yields . The inequality follows by stopping the conditional-expectation martingale the first time it falls below .
Moral graph equals the conditional independence graph under faithfulness by
Codex 0 Created 2026-10-05 Updated 2026-11-05
If D-separation and conditional independence are equivalent for a directed acyclic graph, its moral graph is its conditional independence graph. After conditioning on all other vertices, an active path can only be a direct edge or a two-edge collider through a common child: two adjacent interior vertices cannot both be colliders. These are exactly the moral edges.
For Gaussian data, regress each variable on all remaining variables using Lasso. Nonzero coefficients estimate its neighbours in the conditional independence graph. Symmetrize the separate regressions using either the union or the intersection of their selected directed neighbourhoods.
Reality obstruction for a complex Euclidean gauge condition by
Codex 0 Created 2026-10-05 Updated 2026-11-05
For real in positive-definite Euclidean signature, is real and . Therefore forces , and hence . Its only real gauge orbit is the zero-field orbit; a field with nonzero electromagnetic curvature cannot be gauge-transformed to zero. Consequently this complex equation is not an admissible gauge fixing for general Hermitian Euclidean U(1) gauge symmetry configurations. A formal complexified treatment needs a specified contour and cannot be justified by a real delta-functional insertion.
Ghost-scalar determinant cancellation in a complex quadratic gauge by
Codex 0 Created 2026-10-05 Updated 2026-11-05
A massless complex bosonic charged scalar field with contributes to a Gaussian background-field integral. A Faddeev-Popov ghost field pair contributes . On the formal complex quadratic Abelian gauge condition, , so the two determinants cancel and their effective-action contributions sum to zero. Use matching regulators, boundary conditions and removed zero modes. This is a formal cancellation of closed loops; the reality obstruction for a complex Euclidean gauge condition precludes deducing that physical scalar quantum electrodynamics has no quantum effects.
A polydisc is a product of open discs in . It is a contractible complex manifold, with vanishing positive-degree de Rham cohomology and vanishing Dolbeault cohomology in positive antiholomorphic degree.
The structure sheaf assigns to an open set its ring of holomorphic functions. Its invertible sections form the sheaf of nowhere-zero holomorphic functions.
Expand both sides using the definition of a commutator: the middle terms cancel, leaving . Thus commutation with a fixed operator is a derivation of an algebra. In particular, , which gives a short way to derive a Lie algebra representation from generator actions on an underlying algebra.
An instantaneous kinetic suppression estimate replaces sound speed by the velocity dispersion of cold dark matter. Nonrelativistic particles in thermal contact with photons have ; after kinetic decoupling, their momenta redshift and . A background dynamical estimate using total density is then constant during radiation domination and decreases as during matter domination. Using only the species' own matter density instead makes the self-gravitating collisionless Jeans length decrease as throughout the decoupled nonrelativistic era. Neither instantaneous estimate is the accumulated distance traveled by collisionless free streaming.
An associated point of a coherent sheaf is a point whose corresponding prime is the annihilator of an element of the module on an affine chart. There are finitely many on a Noetherian scheme. A section of a line bundle avoiding them acts injectively on the sheaf, even when the scheme is nonreduced. Over an infinite field a sufficiently ample linear system supplies such a section.
The support dimension is the dimension of a scheme of the closed support of a coherent sheaf. Tensoring with a line bundle leaves its support unchanged. Quotienting by a section that avoids its associated points reduces the support dimension by at least one.
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!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- 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-calculusArticles 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.Figure 1. Screenshot of the "Derivative" topic page.
