For a Lie algebra ideal , the quotient vector space has Lie bracket . The ideal condition makes this independent of representatives. Its Lie algebra ideals correspond to the ideals of containing , by inverse image under the quotient Lie algebra homomorphism.
For prescribed axisymmetric differential rotation , the ideal magnetohydrodynamic induction equation and Gauss's law for magnetism giveThe poloidal field is unchanged while rotational shear generates a toroidal magnetic field. For time-independent , the toroidal component grows linearly until neglected dynamical feedback becomes relevant.
In curvature , a regular -gon of circumradius has interior angle , by the right-triangle angle form of the hyperbolic law of cosines. Thus its hyperbolic polygon area is , continuously and strictly increasing from to . Every area in that open interval is therefore attained at exactly one circumradius.
For a one-dimensional first-order system , hyperbolicity means that the coefficient matrix has real eigenvalues and a complete set of eigenvectors. Distinct real eigenvalues give strict hyperbolicity and separate characteristic curves. Along a curve of speed , a left eigenvector gives the compatibility equation .
If has infinite order in a hyperbolic group, the map is a quasi-isometric embedding of the integers. Equivalently for some . This is the homogeneous quasigeodesic theorem: local-to-global control of metric geodesics in a hyperbolic Cayley graph gives a quasigeodesic orbit for a suitable conjugate of a positive power; undoing conjugation and passing between consecutive powers changes only uniform constants. It implies . The theorem and its hypotheses are given in Löh, Theorem 6.5.9. It is not true for arbitrary finitely generated groups, as the Baumslag-Solitar group relation shows.
Using the idealized CNO cycle law and constant electron-scattering opacity, homology relations for radiative stars giveThese retain ideal-gas pressure support; significant radiation pressure or convection changes the model.
Radiative homology with proton-proton burning and Kramers opacity by

With proton–proton chain energy generation and Kramers' opacity law , homology relations for radiative stars giveThe Hertzsprung-Russell diagram relation has , with effective temperature increasing toward the left in the usual plotting convention.
A laminar column can contract through nearly hydrostatic equilibrium when its cooling time greatly exceeds its vertical dynamical timescale of a disk. For cooling and fixed column mass, a similarity solution has , , , and vertical velocity . The coefficient also depends on the initial mass density normalization.
Choose a cycle surrounding and a cycle surrounding , with inside the region of winding number one for . The algebra-homomorphism property givesSubstitute this into the contour formula for , interchange integrals, and apply the Cauchy integral formula to the inner integral. This proves composition as an equality of algebra elements, not merely an equality on characters, which need not separate a nonsemisimple algebra.
The displayed series converges absolutely in a Banach algebra. It is the holomorphic functional calculus value of the analytic branch on the unit disk. The composition rule for holomorphic functional calculus and give . Thus every sufficiently small norm perturbation of the identity is an exponential.
Near a non-characteristic plane , use the small cap . Its curved face is non-characteristic by continuity of the principal symbol. A polynomial coordinate change flattens that face. Uniform real analytic coefficient bounds and the uniform Cauchy radius for polynomial forcing solve throughout a common cap, with zero boundary jet on the curved face. The complete boundary-jet condition for formal adjoints then gives for every polynomial . Uniform approximation of gives . Repeating on the other side of the plane proves two-sided local uniqueness.
The full norm is , combining the derivative supremum norm with the top-derivative Hölder seminorm. At order zero it is the sum of the supremum norm and the Hölder seminorm.
Isotropic orthogonality consequence of the Hodge index theorem by

If is nonzero numerically with and for ample , then implies , with equality only when is proportional to . To see this, use the Hodge index theorem for algebraic surfaces to split off the positive direction and diagonalize the remaining negative definite form. Orthogonality to a nonzero isotropic vector then leaves a negative semidefinite form whose radical is precisely that vector's span.
The Hochschild cohomological dimension of an associative algebra over a field is . Equivalently, vanishes above that dimension for every bimodule . A bound by one implies and hence formal rigidity from vanishing second Hochschild cohomology.
Write for insertion of a degree- cochain into a degree- one. With the unsigned Hochschild cup product and the left graded Leibniz rule, take . It descends to Hochschild cohomology and gives a Gerstenhaber algebra. The alternative insertion bracket differs by the displayed degree sign and obeys the corresponding right rule. Degree-one brackets are commutators of derivations in either convention.
For the polynomial ring in characteristic zero, antisymmetrization identifies with . The map on a wedge of derivations is . The Hochschild cup product becomes the exterior product, and the left Gerstenhaber bracket becomes the left Schouten-Nijenhuis bracket. This assertion requires a smoothness hypothesis when generalized beyond polynomial rings.
For a planar hit-and-run sampler, let be the chord length and the fraction of directions with positive chord length. With zero-length chords redrawn, the probability density function isfor almost every in the body. Interior points have . The two signed representations of a direction contribute the factor two in the polar-coordinate calculation. If the body has diameter , a version of this density is bounded below by . This is a global Doeblin condition after normalization by the body's area.
The planar Hill equations describe small displacements about a circular Kepler orbit in a frame rotating at angular frequency . With radial and along the orbit, their unforced solution isDirect differentiation gives and .
The terms describe epicyclic motion with tangential amplitude twice the radial amplitude. The constant radial offset causes an accumulating along-track displacement through Keplerian shear, while is an initial along-track offset. This separation makes the solution useful for comparing nearly neighbouring orbits and for identifying which motion requires additional encounter forcing.
If a fixed graph has chromatic number , every extremal -free graph on vertices has minimum degree of a graph . Use a high-minimum-degree multipartite stability subgraph : replacing any vertex by one adjacent to all but one class of preserves -freeness. Any supposed new copy of can replace the new vertex by an unused common neighbour in the omitted class. Extremality therefore gives the lower bound on every degree of a vertex; the Erdős-Stone theorem gives the upper bound on the average degree of a vertex.
For generators normalized by , a constant adjoint vacuum expectation value gives this matrix. A generator commuting with corresponds to a massless gauge boson.
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.
