Let be the universal covering map. Since the complex plane is a simply connected domain, the lifting criterion for a covering space gives a holomorphic lift between one-dimensional complex tori such that
For every , the difference belongs to the discrete period lattice . It depends continuously on , so it is constant. Differentiating shows that the derivative is -periodic. It is bounded on the compact closure of a fundamental parallelogram, and periodicity makes it bounded on all of . The Liouville theorem therefore makes constant, and hence
Thus every holomorphic map has an affine lift of a holomorphic map between one-dimensional complex tori. If “map of complex tori” means an identity-preserving map, choose ; then , so is the required linear map. Without that convention the statement must say affine, since a nonzero translation in a group of the torus lifts to .
The Weierstrass elliptic function of is
The subtracted term gives the Normal convergence of the Weierstrass elliptic-function series away from . Put
The Laurent coefficients of the Weierstrass elliptic function at zero give
Set and . Direct substitution shows that the principal part and constant term of
vanish at zero. Since is an elliptic function, translation gives the same cancellation at every point of the period lattice. Every apparent isolated singularity is therefore a removable singularity, so is an entire function. It is periodic and hence bounded on the translates of a compact fundamental parallelogram. The Liouville theorem gives , which proves the Weierstrass elliptic differential equation
Finally suppose that is a biholomorphic group homomorphism. Its identity-preserving lift has the form by the first part. Since the inverse map also lifts linearly,
Choose a -basis of . Multiplication by is then represented by a unimodular matrix . As a real-linear transformation of , it has determinant ; hence and . The characteristic polynomial of and the Cayley-Hamilton theorem give
This already has the required form with and . Moreover , so forces . Thus is a root of unity, of order , , , , or , completing the description of an automorphism of a one-dimensional complex torus.
The obstacle and wave pattern are stationary, so . With

Hence , so , and
Differentiating the dispersion relation with respect to the wavevector gives

The inverse function theorem states that if is continuously differentiable near and is invertible, then restricts to a bijection between neighbourhoods of and ; its local inverse is continuously differentiable, with derivative
In the normalized case and , continuity of gives a closed ball on which
For small , define . The mean value inequality makes a contraction mapping with constant . If , then
so maps the ball into itself. The contraction mapping theorem gives a unique fixed point , and the fixed-point equation is precisely . Moreover,

For the polynomial map in the question,
The derivative is invertible, so the inverse function theorem supplies some and a continuously differentiable such that
There can be no inverse on all of , because
so is not injective.
The one-dimensional Time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a wavefunction in a real potential is
Multiplying this equation by , multiplying its complex conjugate by , and subtracting gives the probability continuity equation
If and its first derivative decay sufficiently rapidly as , then the probability current vanishes at both ends. Integrating the continuity equation and using the fundamental theorem of calculus yields
This conservation of quantum probability is required by the Born rule: once a normalizable wavefunction has total probability one, its time evolution must preserve that normalization.
For the stated Gaussian wave packet, put . Since
its squared modulus is
The Gaussian integral then gives
which is independent of time, as required.
At a positive equilibrium, division by gives

so .
The multiplicative group of a finite field is cyclic. Choose a generator

and its minimal polynomial has degree .
For arbitrary , let be the splitting field of
over . Its roots form a field: the Frobenius endomorphism shows they are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and inversion. The derivative is , so there are exactly distinct roots. Thus this root field has order . Applying the preceding generator argument supplies an element whose minimal polynomial over has degree , proving that an irreducible polynomial of every positive degree exists.
No. The Darboux theorem says that every derivative has the intermediate-value property. Choose . In a deleted neighborhood of , the assumed limit puts within of . Darboux's theorem applied between and any such would require values near , which that neighborhood excludes. This contradiction shows that cannot be a derivative.
The probability generating function is
Termwise differentiation gives
The coefficients are nonnegative, and , so both derivatives are positive and nondecreasing on .
The derivative of a distribution is defined by integration by parts. Therefore
The measure, Gaussian factor, , coordinates, and derivatives all transform covariantly under rotations, so is an isotropic tensor integral. Symmetry gives .
Contracting and using away from the origin gives
Next contract and . Since

Using the product rule for directional derivatives,
Thus and . If and , then . Integrating the two directional derivatives as divergences gives only boundary fluxes, which vanish because . This is helicity conservation by tangent boundary conditions, so .
For the stated field, direct use of the cylindrical curl gives . Therefore
Assume Newton's second law, , and that each internal pair force is central, so is parallel to . Summing
cancels internal pairs and gives . Taking moments about fixed cancels the internal torques pairwise and gives
The angular momentum about the centre of mass result follows similarly: differentiating introduces no extra term because both total relative position weighted by mass and total relative momentum vanish. Thus its derivative is the external torque about .
Finally, if every mass is and , then about a fixed point
Therefore
A subset is a smooth surface if every point has a neighbourhood in parametrized by a map , where is open, is a homeomorphism onto that neighbourhood, is smooth, and has rank two everywhere. These are the embedded surface parametrization conditions.
For the given set use local angular intervals in the parametrization
It is locally one-to-one and has tangent vectors
Their cross product has magnitude
so the derivative has rank two. The angular charts cover , proving that it is a smooth surface.
The area between heights and is therefore
By hypothesis this equals for every subinterval. Since the integrand is continuous,

Thus for a constant , and
The graph lies on a circle of radius , exactly as described by constant strip-area density of a surface of revolution.
The function

It is unique in the stated class. While a solution is positive its derivative is , so continuity forces it to follow until it first reaches zero at . It cannot subsequently make a positive excursion: on any connected interval where and , integration of gives . A negative excursion similarly contradicts . Hence the solution remains zero. This is the sign-decay differential equation.
For any ,
If the normal equation holds, the last two terms reduce to , so minimizes. Conversely, at a minimizer the directional derivative in every vanishes, forcing .
Take a variation , where the differentiable function obeys
