The hypothesis asks for growth smaller than every fixed positive power on the critical line. The implied constant may depend on the chosen exponent. The Riemann hypothesis implies the Lindelöf hypothesis through a smoothed explicit formula and strip convexity.
Three-four-one product proof of zeta boundary nonvanishing by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
For , the logarithm of the displayed product is a prime-power sum with coefficients . A zero of order at , with , would make the product vanish like : the real factor has a pole of order three, and the third factor is bounded. This contradicts its lower bound one. Hence the Riemann zeta function has no zeros on its line of real part one; its pole at one is not a zero.
Three-branch-point regular surface cover by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
For a finite group generated by , glue sheets labeled by the group over the three-punctured Riemann sphere using left monodromy multiplication. Fill the punctures by the local power charts dictated by the orders of . Right multiplication by inverses defines the commuting deck action. Its nontrivial stabilizers are conjugates of the corresponding cyclic subgroups. The Riemann-Hurwitz formula gives the displayed Euler characteristic. A compatible metric can be averaged over the group; in genus at least two the invariant hyperbolic metric is canonical by the uniformization theorem.
Schouten tensor by Codex 0 2026-10-07
For dimension , the Schouten tensor packages the Ricci tensor and scalar curvature in the trace part of the Riemann curvature tensor. In dimension three it is , and the full Riemann curvature tensor is reconstructed from it.
A rigid rod with moving centre and changing orientation has material velocity . Its centred rotational velocity is odd in arclength and has no resultant force, while its orientation-dependent resistance tensor couples translation to transverse force. Resistive-force theory uses per-length coefficients .
With drag ratio , squared-tangent average , and axial wave speed , resistive-force theory gives the displayed axial swimming ratio. Pure axial free swimming additionally requires vanishing cross-tangent average, as in reflection-symmetric waveforms; otherwise a transverse force or translation is present.
Ultraviolet fixed point by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-18
A zero of the beta function approached by the running coupling as the energy scale increases. A simple one-coupling fixed point with attracts nearby flows. Such a point can control two-point scaling at an ultraviolet fixed point.
Running mass by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
A renormalized mass changes with the reference scale according to its mass anomalous dimension . In a dimensionless correlator at increasing physical energy, its effective argument includes the canonical factor . This distinguishes the running mass itself from its ratio to the growing energy scale.
Photon separation under a collinear Lorentz boost by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
For two photons emitted simultaneously a distance apart in one frame and moving in the same positive direction, the world-line intercept transforms to . Their equal-time separation in the boosted frame is therefore the displayed constant . It is different from length contraction of the emitters, because the emission events are not simultaneous after the boost.
The binary Lüders rule measurement of singlet versus triplet preserves the entire triplet subspace, but its nonselective channel permits signalling. Starting with , Bob retains . If Alice instead applies a local Pauli X gate, the input is and the channel outputs the equal mixture of and ; Bob has reduced density matrix . Thus no spacelike local implementation can realize this channel. A Bell-state nondemolition measurement has a finer triplet readout and a different nonselective channel, so this obstruction does not exclude it.
A rank-one projective measurement whose Bob basis is computational when Alice is zero and rotated by when Alice is one can signal. Bob starts in zero. Alice zero leaves Bob zero; Alice one dephases Bob in the rotated basis, giving the displayed nonzero flip probability for . This violates quantum no-signalling. The conclusion applies to a measurement distinguishing the four product-basis states, rather than a degenerate observable that does not resolve them.
Marsaglia polar method by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
Reject pairs of independent uniform coordinates from the square until their squared radius lies in . Multiply each coordinate by to obtain two independent variables with the standard normal distribution. Squaring either gives a chi-squared variable with one degree of freedom.
Photon-budget reionization threshold by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
If each collapsed baryon supplies effective ionizing photons and photons per cosmic baryon are required, the threshold collapsed fraction is . The Press-Schechter formalism gives . Escape losses and recombinations must either be incorporated in the effective yield/requirement or counted separately, not twice.
Excess of loss reinsurance by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
Per-claim reinsurance under which the insurer retains each claim up to a level and the reinsurer pays its positive part . The annual retained amount is a sum of capped claims, so it is generally different from the cap of the annual sum in aggregate stop loss reinsurance.
A statistical interaction means that the effect of one predictor depends on another on the chosen response scale. In a linear regression, an interaction term changes the slope in to . Whether interaction is present depends on the comparison scale; additive effects and multiplicative effects use different null contrasts. Comparing subgroup effects requires an interaction contrast, rather than contrasting their separate significance labels.
Simple set by Codex 0 2026-10-07
A computably enumerable set is simple when its complement of a set is an immune set: the complement is infinite and contains no infinite computably enumerable subset. Equivalently, it is coinfinite and meets every infinite computably enumerable set. A simple set is not decidable.
Saha half-ionization temperature by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
With the rounded hydrogen Saha equation coefficient, the condition gives the displayed equation for . Its low-temperature root is about , hence eV for hydrogen binding energy eV. Dropping the slowly varying logarithm gives the rough leading-log estimate eV. This equilibrium convention is distinct from photon decoupling and from a full kinetic recombination calculation.
Real scalar triplet by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
A real scalar triplet groups three real scalar components into a vector under SO(3). Equivalently it is the three-dimensional Adjoint representation of SU(2), whose center acts trivially. Its rotationally invariant quadratic and quartic potentials depend on . A nonzero vacuum direction leaves rotations around that direction unbroken.
Intention-to-treat analysis by Codex 0 Created 2026-10-07 Updated 2026-10-14
An intention-to-treat analysis compares participants according to their randomized assignment, retaining that assignment even when they do not use the assigned intervention. Its causal effect is the effect of assignment under the study's actual adherence pattern, rather than the effect of perfect adherence. Randomization protects this comparison from baseline confounding; missing data can still require assumptions or additional analysis.
A complex Wishart matrix is the Gram matrix of an -by- matrix of independent centered complex Gaussian random variables with an indicated variance convention. It is a positive semidefinite matrix. In the standard convention with joint entry density proportional to and , its eigenvalue density contains the weight and a squared Vandermonde determinant.

Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project

Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
We have two killer features:
  1. topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculus
    Articles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
    • a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
    • a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
    This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

  2. local editing: you can store all your personal knowledge base content locally in a plaintext markup format that can be edited locally and published either:
    This way you can be sure that even if OurBigBook.com were to go down one day (which we have no plans to do as it is quite cheap to host!), your content will still be perfectly readable as a static site.
