Conjugate the collocation matrix by the diagonal matrix with entries $(-1{)}^i$. The resulting negative-off-diagonal matrix has a nonnegative inverse, as a convergent Neumann series shows. The absolute inverse row sums are therefore the entries of its inverse applied to the all-ones vector. They solve $4u_i-u_{i-1}-u_{i+1}=6$ with $u_0=u_{n+1}=0$, whose solution is displayed. The maximum occurs at the central row or central two rows and equals the inverse operator norm on ${\ell }^{\infty }$. Consequently the associated spline interpolation operator has norm at most three independently of dimension.

Cover the sphere by complements of its two poles. Each open set is contractible, and their intersection deformation retracts to the equatorial sphere. The Poincaré lemma and homotopy invariance of de Rham cohomology make the two neighboring groups in the Mayer--Vietoris sequence for de Rham cohomology zero, so its connecting map is an isomorphism. Its inverse takes a top-degree form to the difference of its local primitives on the equator, up to the connecting-map sign convention.

Lorentz generators produce infinitesimal Lorentz transformations. In four dimensions they split into three rotation and three boost generators. Their action on supercharges uses the appropriate spinor representation, while their action on translations is the mixed Poincare algebra commutator. Signs in component formulas must agree with whether the generators act on states, operator columns or dual rows.

Suppose the mapped increments $K_{s,t}$ have real-centred enclosing radii bounded by a nondecreasing modulus $\omega (t-s)\to 0$. Nested closures define the unique growing real point ${\xi }_s$. For $v\in K_{t,t+h}$, its preimage $z=g_{K_{s,t}}^{-1}(v)$ belongs to $K_{s,t+h}$. The uniform displacement estimate for a mapping-out function gives $|v-z|\le C\omega (t-s)$, while $|z-{\xi }_s|\le 2\omega (t-s+h)$. Letting $h\downarrow 0$ with $h\le t-s$ proves the displayed estimate. It proves uniform continuity of the Loewner transform on each bounded time interval without evaluating a conformal map on a rough boundary.

For Euclidean vectors $x_i$ of length at least one, their labeled subset sums can be partitioned into pairwise distance-at-least-one blocks, with $\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{n}{r}\right)-\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{n}{r-1}\right)$ blocks of size $n-2r+1$. To extend a separated block by a vector $x$, choose its member $y$ minimizing inner product with $x$. The translated block together with $y$ remains separated, since $(z+x-y)\cdot x\ge \Vert x{\Vert }^2$. The untransformed block with $y$ removed remains separated too. Block sizes change from $\ell$ to $\ell +1,\ell -1$, the same recurrence as a symmetric chain decomposition of a Boolean lattice. There are exactly $\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{n}{\lfloor n/2\rfloor }\right)$ nonempty blocks.

For real coefficients of absolute value at least one, an open interval of length four contains at most the sum of the two largest binomial coefficients of signed sums. The corresponding subset family has no three-element inclusion chain. Its Lubell mass is therefore at most two, giving the bound by allocating mass to the two largest levels. Unit coefficients attain it at a center midway between the two chosen sum levels.

For a unit-jump population chain with one-step probabilities $\alpha k/n$ and $\beta k^2/n^2$, its equilibrium density is $u_0=\alpha /\beta$. Speed time by $n$ and center and scale the population as $(k-n{u}_0)/\sqrt{n}$. The accelerated conditional drift is $-\alpha x-\beta x^2/\sqrt{n}$, and the second moment is $2{\alpha }^2/\beta +3\alpha x/\sqrt{n}+\beta x^2/n$. Their compact-set limits give the displayed Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. If $2{\alpha }^2<\beta$, the invalid-probability threshold stays a fixed positive density distance above equilibrium. Before that threshold, the generator of $x^2$ is at most one because its drift contribution is nonpositive. The stopped Lyapunov function bound proves compact containment and makes the probability of hitting that threshold on a fixed accelerated horizon tend to zero. This supplies the global hypotheses of the diffusion approximation theorem.

Assume all equilibrium means are strictly positive. Let $A$ be the drift Jacobian at a stable mean-field equilibrium, $S=\mathrm{diag}({\mu }_i)$, and $B={\sum }_r{a}_r{\nu }_r{\nu }_r^{\mathsf{T}}$ the reaction noise matrix. For normalized fluctuations, put $M=-S^{-1}AS$, $D=S^{-1}B{S}^{-1}$, and ${\eta }_{ij}=\mathrm{Cov}(X_i,X_j)/({\mu }_i{\mu }_j)$. Stationarity of the linear-noise covariance gives the displayed Continuous Lyapunov equation. It applies to driven reaction networks without requiring thermal equilibrium. A mode with zero restoring eigenvalue and nonzero noise has no stationary covariance.

A reaction's stoichiometric vector outer product multiplied by its reaction propensity function is its contribution to the infinitesimal state-increment covariance. Summing over channels gives $B$. Its normalized form $D$ divides by the two strictly positive mean copy numbers. The Fokker-Planck equation writes the associated second-derivative term with $B/2$; the covariance evolution and normalized stationary Lyapunov equation instead use $B$ and $D$ themselves. A simultaneous unit loss of two species contributes positive cross noise even when their long-time stationary covariance is negative.

For $dX=\sigma (X)dB+b(X)dt$, $X_0=0$, and ${\sigma }^2+b^2\le A(1+X^2)$, the Doob L2 maximal inequality and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality imply, for $t\le 1$, $F(t)\le 8A{\int }_0^t(1+F(s))ds$, where $F(t)=\mathbb{E}{\sup }_{s\le t}|X_s{|}^2$. The Gronwall inequality yields $F(t)\le e^{8At}-1$. Apply the calculation first to stopped paths; truncating locally Lipschitz functions and using this uniform bound gives exit probabilities at most $(e^{8A}-1)/n^2$, proving nonexplosion on the unit time interval.

Add independent rate-$\mu$ resets to zero to a linear birth process with immigration. The resulting irreducible continuous-time Markov chain is nonexplosive by domination of births and finiteness of Poisson reset counts. When $\mu =\lambda$, an excursion from one reaches $n$ with probability $2/(n+1)$, so its jump chain is recurrent with infinite expected jump count. The elapsed return-cycle time instead has meanThus the continuous-time chain is positive recurrent while its jump chain is null recurrent. Its stationary probabilities are ${\pi }_0=1/2$ and ${\pi }_n=1/[(n+1)(n+2)]$ for $n\ge 1$.

For a compact Kähler manifold of complex dimension $n$, wedging with the $(n-k)$th power of its Kähler class is the displayed isomorphism for $0\le k\le n$. The Hard Lefschetz isomorphism on Dolbeault cohomology and Hodge decomposition theorem for compact Kähler manifolds give the result by summing the bidegrees. In particular, $L:H^k\to H^{k+2}$ is injective when $k<n$: if $L\alpha =0$, then $L^{n-k}\alpha =0$. Hence $b_k\le b_{k+2}$ below the middle dimension.

For an isogeny of elliptic curves $\varphi :E\to E^{\prime }$ over a number field $K$, this finite subgroup of $H^1(K,E[\varphi ])$ consists of Galois cohomology classes whose restriction at every place comes from $E^{\prime }(K_v)/\varphi E(K_v)$. It fits intowhere the last group is the kernel of the induced map on Tate–Shafarevich groups. Thus local computations bound the rational-point quotient without necessarily determining it. For multiplication by $n$, this recovers the Selmer group of an elliptic curve.

Four independent complex Dirac solutions in four dimensions span each spinor fibre, because a connection-parallel solution is determined by its value at one point. Their integrability operator must therefore vanish on the whole fibre. Independence of the six Clifford bivectors then gives the displayed constant-curvature tensor and $R_{ab}=-12s{c}^2{g}_{ab}$. When $c>0$, the Ricci tensor is automatically nondegenerate.

Every Lie algebra automorphism $S$ obeys ${\mathrm{ad}}_{SX}=S{\mathrm{ad}}_X{S}^{-1}$. The cyclic property of the trace therefore makes the Killing form invariant under $S$. For a matrix Lie group, $S={\mathrm{Ad}}_g$ is conjugation by $g$, proving the displayed identity even when the group is disconnected. This directly proves gauge invariance of Killing-form contractions of adjoint fields.

For the general linear Lie algebra of all $n\times n$ matrices over a field of characteristic zero, write ${\mathrm{ad}}_X=L_X-R_X$ on the matrix space. The traces of $L_X{L}_Y$ and $R_X{R}_Y$ are $n\mathrm{tr}(XY)$, whereas both mixed traces are $\mathrm{tr}X\mathrm{tr}Y$. Expanding gives the displayed Killing form. Its radical is the scalar matrices because $\kappa (X,Y)=0$ for every $Y$ forces $nX-\mathrm{tr}(X)I=0$. Thus the full general linear algebra is not semisimple, even though its traceless summand is semisimple for $n\ge 2$.

The de Rham cohomology class of a Kähler form is a Kähler class. Such classes form the Kähler cone. They have positive integral on every complex curve, and their top self-intersection is positive.

The cup product on the second integral cohomology of a complex K3 surface is an even unimodular lattice of signature $(3,19)$. Here $U$ is the hyperbolic plane and $E_8(-1)$ is the negative-definite form of the E8 lattice. In the M-theory K3 duality, this lattice matches the heterotic electric charge lattice. The self-dual harmonic two-forms of a Ricci flat K3 metric span its positive three-plane.

Locally, a unit-volume Ricci flat metric on a K3 surface determines a positive three-plane in its real second cohomology, with the K3 intersection lattice fixed. The corresponding Grassmannian has dimension $3\cdot 19=57$. Allowing the volume gives one further positive real parameter; large diffeomorphisms identify lattice-equivalent descriptions. This is the same continuous moduli count as the three-torus Narain moduli space plus its coupling.

A primitive effective nef class of square zero on a complex K3 surface defines a basepoint-free pencil with connected genus-one fibres. Its general fibre is a smooth elliptic curve. A section is a smooth rational curve $\Gamma$ with $E\cdot \Gamma =1$ and ${\Gamma }^2=-2$.
