The poles inside are zero and for . At a nonzero pole,
and the residue at is its negative. At zero, the Laurent series contains only even powers because the function is even, so its residue is zero. All residues cancel and therefore
A map is differentiable at if there is a linear map such that

Since is polynomial,
Thus , the space of skew-symmetric matrices.
Define
Then , so the inverse function theorem supplies open neighborhoods , on which is a diffeomorphism. Its symmetric part is and its skew part is . Consequently
and therefore .
For any , left multiplication is a homeomorphism preserving and carrying to . Transporting the preceding chart gives a neighborhood of in homeomorphic to an open subset of .
Let
where is the golden ratio. If the union-closed family consists of one nonempty set, any element of that set has frequency one, so assume its cardinality exceeds one. Choose independent uniform members and let be their characteristic vectors of sets. Then .
Suppose for a contradiction that every element has frequency . Put , and let , the characteristic vector of a set of . The chain rule for information entropy and conditioning reduces entropy give

Fix the two prefixes and set
The two conditioned bits are independent random variables, and exactly when both are zero. The supplied binary entropy product inequality therefore gives
Averaging over the independent prefixes yields
whenever either conditional entropy is positive. Summing and using gives .
But set union keeps inside the union-closed family, so is supported on . The maximum entropy distribution on a finite set gives , a contradiction. Some element must therefore occur in at least members, proving the entropy bound for a union-closed family.
For , one writes if there is a total computable function such that

A rational map between irreducible projective varieties is an equivalence class of morphisms from nonempty open subsets of to , with representatives identified when they agree on a nonempty open subset. It is regular at if some representative is defined on a neighborhood of .
For
the coordinates vanish together exactly at and . Near the first point, the paths and have limiting images and ; near the second, the paths and have limiting images and . No continuous extension exists there. Elsewhere the coordinates do not vanish together, so the map is regular.
Define
Where all coordinates are nonzero,
and similarly is the identity. Thus is birational and is an isomorphism on .
For irreducibility of , dehomogenize at . Over this is, up to a unit,
The rational function on the right is not a cube, since its valuation at either root of is one. The cubic is therefore irreducible over ; Gauss's lemma gives irreducibility in . Since does not divide , homogenization preserves irreducibility.
Writing transforms the equation into
Its partial derivatives are , , and up to common signs. Simultaneous vanishing forces , impossible projectively, so is nonsingular. The inverse restricts on dense open subsets, proving that and are birational.
Lévy's continuity theorem states that if characteristic functions converge pointwise to a function continuous at zero, then is a characteristic function and the corresponding laws converge weakly to its law. Conversely, convergence in distribution implies pointwise convergence of characteristic functions.
Uniformly for the arguments involved,
Hence
because and the error is . The limiting characteristic function is that of . Lévy's theorem gives
A function near an equilibrium at the origin is a Lyapunov function if , for , and
The First Lyapunov theorem says these conditions imply stability. The second says that if the last inequality is strict away from the origin, then the origin is asymptotically stable.
To prove the first, fix a sufficiently small ball of radius . Positive definiteness and compactness give
Continuity at zero gives such that implies . Since cannot increase along a trajectory, that trajectory cannot meet the sphere , where . It therefore remains in the -ball for all forward time, which is stability.

The integral equation becomes
Evaluating it at the three delta functions gives
Thus
For , all three Green-function terms are proportional to . Hence
Now define , so that . If denotes the matrix multiplying , direct evaluation gives
The displayed algebraic equation is therefore exactly the condition that the finite-dimensional scattering system become singular. Its solutions are poles of the analytically continued scattering amplitude.
To see the imaginary-axis poles directly, write with . When , the equation reduces to
and its nonzero root is , or
This is the bound state of the coincident potential . When , the three centres decouple and the roots approach
with exponentially small splitting. A pole at has energy and an exponentially decaying wavefunction, so these upper imaginary-axis singularities represent bound states.
The one-particle partition function is

After locally inverting this relation to write , use the Hamilton--Jacobi generating function
and define the angle modulo . The transformation is canonical, the Hamiltonian depends only on , and
The adiabatic-invariance principle says that if an external parameter changes on a time scale much longer than the orbital period, and no separatrix is crossed, the action remains approximately constant. Its small within-cycle changes do not accumulate at leading adiabatic order.
False. Thomae’s function is Riemann integrable and discontinuous at every rational, an infinite countable set.
False. Continuous functions can converge pointwise to the non-Riemann-integrable Dirichlet function; for example enumerate the rationals and use continuous narrow bumps whose first peaks cover the first rationals while widths shrink suitably pointwise off .
False without continuity. The function equal to at one point and elsewhere is nonnegative, Riemann integrable with integral , but is not identically zero.
False. The Cantor function has derivative outside the Cantor set, hence its derivative extends to the Riemann-integrable zero function, while .
