First massive type IIA long supermultiplet 2026-10-06
Level matching combines two chiral massive sectors, each with 128 NS and 128 R states. The NS-NS and R-R combinations give bosons, and the mixed sectors give the same fermion count. Their total matches a massive uncharged long multiplet with 32 real supercharges and sixteen fermionic creation operators.
First massive level of a chiral RNS sector Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-14
After the GSO projection, the first positive shifted level is one: and . In a closed-string mass convention it corresponds to . The transverse oscillator basis has 128 NS states and 128 R states. They form the bosonic and fermionic pieces of a massive supersymmetry multiplet.
Negative-energy gravitational collision Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-07
Two point masses released from rest at separation have negative mechanical energy but collide in time . Their separation approaches zero along a regular trajectory before collision. The energy sign alone therefore does not supply a positive lower separation bound.
Twin-prime upper bound using Bombieri–Vinogradov Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-14
Apply the Selberg upper-bound sieve to the numbers with prime. For odd squarefree integers , the local count is and the density is . With sieve level , the normalizing sum is by the truncated Euler-product lower bound. The Selberg least-common-multiple weights have absolute values at most . The weighted arithmetic-progression error bound and Bombieri–Vinogradov theorem make their total error . Consequently the number of twin prime pairs with smaller member at most is .
A trigonometric polynomial is real on the unit circle precisely when its finite coefficients have the displayed symmetry. To prove necessity, conjugate its values on the circle, use , and compare coefficients. Multiplying a coefficient difference by gives an ordinary polynomial vanishing at infinitely many points, so it is zero. Symmetry also gives for every nonzero complex .
If and is nonnegative on the unit circle, a root of a polynomial there has even multiplicity of a root. Indeed is a real analytic nonnegative function, whose first nonzero term in its Taylor series at a zero must have even order. The map has a simple zero, and multiplication by is nonvanishing, so the order equals the polynomial multiplicity.
Fejér–Riesz theorem 2026-10-06
A trigonometric polynomial nonnegative on the unit circle has a polynomial modulus-square factor of polynomial degree at most its trigonometric order. For a nonzero trigonometric polynomial of actual order , conjugate symmetry of trigonometric polynomial coefficients yields reciprocal-conjugate root pairing for . Even multiplicity of unit-circle roots of a nonnegative trigonometric polynomial permits pairing all roots of a polynomial. Select representatives and useIt follows that with . Evaluating away from the roots of a polynomial gives . Thus works. Constant and zero trigonometric polynomials have constant or zero factors. Different selections of roots of a polynomial and constant phases can give different factors.
Gram matrix representation of a trigonometric polynomial Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-14
Under the displayed diagonal-sum convention, set on the unit circle. A Hermitian matrix then givesConsequently proves nonnegativity. Conversely the Fejér–Riesz theorem produces the rank-one spectral-factor Gram matrix. This gives a semidefinite programming representation of nonnegative trigonometric polynomials. The reversed convention instead uses the unconjugated monomial vector.
Back substitution Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-31
An upper triangular matrix system with nonzero diagonal is solved from the last row upward. Once are known, use . The nonzero diagonal guarantees a unique solution; this is the final solve after a QR factorization.
Apparent horizon Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-14
An apparent horizon is the outer boundary of the future-trapped region on a chosen spatial slice, under the usual regularity conditions. Its location depends on the slice; it is not the globally defined event horizon. At a regular boundary the outward null expansion vanishes while the inward null expansion is negative. Its area cannot be substituted into every version of the Penrose inequality without the appropriate area and initial-data hypotheses.
Free transport equation Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-07
Particles keep their velocity and move along straight trajectories. The method of characteristics gives . The shear preserves Lebesgue measure and every Lp norm. Compact initial support remains compact at each finite time, but need not remain in one compact set for all times.
Pure-target lower bound on trace distance Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-07
For a density operator and pure state , the diagonal absolute-sum bound for the trace norm in a basis containing gives . The quantum fidelity is unsquared. Block-diagonal states with respect to the target and its complement attain equality.
Excess prime-factor multiplicity 2026-10-06
The nonnegative arithmetic function counts the repeated occurrences beyond the first of each prime factor. Its expectation under uniform sampling from is bounded by , independently of .
Torsion group 2026-10-06
A group is a torsion group when every element is a torsion element, meaning that each element has finite order. The orders need not have a common finite bound. A torsion group has no nontrivial torsion-free group as a subgroup; in particular it cannot contain a nonabelian free group. Infinite finitely generated groups of this kind can be constructed using a torsion group construction by p-power relators.
Bounded set in a topological vector space 2026-10-06
A subset of a topological vector space is bounded when every neighborhood of zero absorbs it: for all sufficiently large positive . In a locally convex space defined by seminorms , this is equivalent to for every . In particular, a bounded subset of the Schwartz space has a uniform bound for every Schwartz seminorm; it need not have uniformly bounded supports.
Sequential continuity criterion in a metrizable vector space Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-14
A linear map from a metrizable space carrying a vector-space topology is continuous if it takes every null sequence to a null sequence. If continuity fails, choose a point in each shrinking basic neighborhood whose image stays outside a fixed neighborhood of zero. These points converge to zero but their images do not. For a Fréchet space described by increasing seminorms , a discontinuous functional admits and .
Closed point 2026-10-06
A point of a topological space is closed when its singleton is a closed set. In a T1 space every point is closed. The closed points of an affine scheme are its maximal ideals; the closure of the point corresponding to is .
Separation axiom Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-14
A separation axiom is a condition on a topological space expressing how points or closed subsets can be distinguished by open sets. The Kolmogorov space condition distinguishes distinct points by some open set; the T1 space condition makes every point closed; the stronger Hausdorff space condition gives disjoint neighbourhoods to distinct points.
G-delta set Created 2026-10-06 Updated 2026-10-07
A G-delta set is a countable intersection of open subsets of a topological space. In a complete metric space these are precisely the topologically complete subspaces, by the G-delta criterion for topological completeness.
Undo a short evolution of two orthogonal locally indistinguishable states. Orthogonality is preserved exactly. A Lieb-Robinson bound localizes every backward-evolved observable within an expanded region and bounds its norm error. After normalizing the approximate observable, the initial expectation difference is at most . Polynomial volume growth in the system diameter controls the localization prefactor and yields preservation for sufficiently small linear-time coefficient.
