The signs of homogeneous linear forms $x\mapsto x^T\beta$ on ${\mathbb{R}}^p$ have VC dimension at most $p$. The Sauer-Shelah growth bound therefore gives

The map $x\mapsto (x_i{x}_j{)}_{i\le j}$ embeds homogeneous quadratic forms in a linear function space of dimension $d(d+1)/2$.

The indicators of closed Euclidean balls in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ have VC dimension at most $d+2$. Indeed,wherebelongs to the span of $\Vert x{\Vert }_2^2,x_1,\dots ,x_d,1$.

For a complex field $\psi$, the canonical Hamiltonian evolution conventionis accompanied by its complex conjugate equation.

Several monochromatic arithmetic progressions are color-focused when they have different colors and extend by one further term to the same point. Such focused families give an elementary induction proof of the length-three case of the Van der Waerden theorem.

For all positive integers $k,m$, some $n$ has the following property: every $k$-coloring of $[n]$ contains $a,d>0$ for whichis monochromatic. Thus the common difference has the same color as the progression.

A Bogoliubov transformation is a canonical transformation of mode operators mixing creation operators and annihilation operators. It diagonalizes quadratic Hamiltonians or relates different vacuum descriptions. Bosonic and fermionic canonical bracket constraints differ. A nonzero creation-mixing coefficient makes its vacuum contain particles relative to the original mode decomposition.

Expected utility maximization chooses an admissible random payoff $X$ to maximize $\mathbb{E}[U(X)]$.

Every finite-dimensional continuous complex representation of $S^1$ is unitary and decomposes into one-dimensional weight spaces. Its continuous one-dimensional characters are $z\mapsto z^m$ for $m\in \mathbb{Z}$.

For a compact group with normalized Haar measure, averaging any positive-definite Hermitian form,produces an invariant positive-definite Hermitian form.

Average a positive-definite Hermitian form over a finite group and choose an orthonormal basis for the averaged form. In that basis every representing matrix is unitary.

The multiplicative group of integers modulo $n$ consists of the residue classes coprime to $n$. It has order $\phi (n)$.

If ${\mathcal{O}}_K=\mathbb{Z}[\theta ]$ and the minimal polynomial of $\theta$ factors modulo a rational prime $p$ asthenand the prime ideal $(p,g_i(\theta ))$ has norm $p^{\mathrm{deg}{g}_i}$.

This gives an explicit instance of unique factorization of ideals in a number field.

For three independent points from any rotationally symmetric planar distribution with nonzero radii, the origin lies in their triangle exactly when their three angles do not all lie in one semicircle. Three independent uniform angles have this property with probability $1/4$.

If distinct keys transform every ciphertext into equally probable plaintexts through a probability-preserving source symmetry, key equivocation never vanishes and unicity distance is infinite.

For ciphertext alphabet $\Sigma$ and source entropy $H$, each symbol has redundancy $\log |\Sigma |-H$, leading in Shannon's ideal model to $U=\log |K|/(\log |\Sigma |-H)$.

Key equivocation is the conditional entropy $H(K\mid C^n)$ remaining about a key after observing $n$ ciphertext symbols.

This theorem characterizes truth in an ultraproduct. Łoś's theorem says that a first-order formula holds in an ultraproduct exactly when it holds in a set of factors belonging to the ultrafilter.

The method of types combines two facts: there are few possible empirical distributions, and strings within each type class are equiprobable under an independent and identically distributed source. Information entropy determines how many strings share a frequency profile; relative entropy determines how unlikely that profile is under a specified source law. The connection is useful both for lossless source coding and for understanding rare observations.

The following formulas use natural logarithms, so information entropy and relative entropy are measured in nats. DefineHere $p$ is the source probability mass function and $q$ is an attainable empirical distribution. Use $0\ln 0=0$; first assume every $p(a)>0$. Base-two logarithms give the equivalent formulas with $2^{n{H}_2(q)}$ and $2^{-n{D}_2(q\Vert p)}$.

For a rational homology three-sphere $Y$, the linking form is the nonsingular pairingReversing the orientation of $Y$ negates this form.

Here the paired elements lie in the torsion subgroup of first homology.
