Write for the request count on day . Both fits are Poisson regression models with independent
In model 1,
where the variables are indicator variables for winter, weekend, bank holiday, and low or medium pollution; non-winter weekdays that are not bank holidays and have high pollution form the baseline. Model 2 imposes
retaining only winter and weekend effects.
The models are nested, and the likelihood-ratio test statistic is the decrease in residual deviance,
There are three restrictions. By Wilks theorem, under this statistic is asymptotically a chi-squared distribution with three degrees of freedom. Since
we reject model 2 at the level in favour of model 1.
Let a memoryless source have probabilities , and let a uniquely decodable -ary code have word lengths and mean length . The Shannon source coding theorem states

For the lower bound, the Kraft inequality gives . Set . The Gibbs inequality, or nonnegativity of relative entropy, gives
Therefore .
For achievability choose . Then , so the converse part of the Kraft theorem supplies a prefix code with these lengths, and
Hence the entropy is the optimal mean code length up to less than one code symbol.
Write the density and pressure as and , and let the small fluid velocity be the gradient of an acoustic velocity potential, . The linear homentropic acoustic equations are

For a nonzero mode, cancellation of and multiplication by yield the frequency equation for spherically symmetric vibration of a gas-filled elastic shell:
The spectrum is discrete and contains infinitely many positive solutions. Indeed, for sufficiently large , runs from to on , forcing at least one root there. These high modes are predominantly standing acoustic modes of the gas, while the lowest mode is predominantly the shell's radial breathing mode; the coupling shifts both families.
At the rigid surface, the no-slip boundary condition and no penetration give
At the horizontal free surface, the kinematic boundary condition and the stress boundary condition are
Here surface tension is absent and the inviscid air exerts no tangential traction.
The incompressible Stokes equation is
Use the Cartesian streamfunction convention , and set
Then

The two momentum equations read
Equality of mixed derivatives gives , so the boundary conditions imply
Integrating for the pressure and imposing the normal-stress condition at determines
The complete instantaneous velocity and pressure fields are therefore
Indeed, with the viscous stress tensor , these expressions satisfy both traction conditions. Evaluating the vertical velocity at the material surface gives the pressure-driven thinning of a uniform Stokes layer:
Thus
Use the Minkowski metric and define the electromagnetic field tensor by
As a rank-two Lorentz tensor, it transforms under a Lorentz transformation as
Two independent quadratic electromagnetic field invariants are
With , , and , the components are
Direct contraction gives
where the sign of changes if the opposite spacetime orientation is chosen. Since both are complete tensor contractions, and are Lorentz scalars.
For a constant uniform field, the relativistic Lorentz force is a constant-coefficient linear ordinary differential equation. Its solution is the matrix exponential
Now implies that the field is a null electromagnetic field:
The stated axes allow us to choose
Put . On the coordinates, the mixed tensor divided by is
The particle starts with four-velocity , so the exponential terminates after its quadratic term and gives
Integrating with the particle initially at the origin gives the relativistic trajectory in a constant null crossed field
Eliminating yields
If the original positive direction is opposite to , both the sign of and the displayed signed coefficient reverse.
Choose any basis of two independent local solutions and collect their coefficients into a column immediately to the right of the th cell boundary. The Floquet matrix is the one-period matrix defined by
Equivalently, it advances the Cauchy data by one period. The Wronskian of two solutions of the stationary Schrödinger equation is constant between the delta functions, and the derivative jump at each delta function also has determinant one. Consequently
For a real potential the Floquet matrix in the real Cauchy-data basis is real, so its trace is real in every basis. Its Floquet multipliers satisfy
By Bloch theorem, an energy is in the interior of an allowed energy band when are distinct unit-modulus numbers. Since is real, this is equivalent to
For the attractive delta-comb Kronig-Penney model, integrating the Schrödinger equation across a lattice point gives

In first-order nondegenerate perturbation theory, the component is omitted from the state correction, while and . It follows that
