Let's say that we have an objective function $f(\mathbf x,\mathbf y)$ which has the parameters $\mathbf x=[x_1\ldots x_n]$ and $\mathbf y=[y_1\ldots y_n]$. Here, $\mathbf y$ is a blackbox variable which is calculated from a simulation of a network $\mathcal N$ by taking $\mathbf x$ as input. $f$ is an objective functio...
Definition:Pointwise Addition of Mappings Definition Let $G^S$ be the set of all mappings from $S$ to $G$. Then pointwise addition on $G^S$ is the binary operation $\circ: G^S \times G^S \to G^S$ (the $\circ$ is the same as for $G$) defined by: $\forall f,g \in G^S: \forall s \in S: \left({f \circ g}\right) \left({s}\r...

TL;DR: Unless you assume people are unreasonably bad at judging car color, or that blue cars are unreasonably rare, the large number of people in your example means the probability that the car is blue is basically 100%.

Suppose we have a real function $ f: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ that is two times differentiable and we draw its graph $\{(x,f(x)), x \in \mathbb{R} \} $.

Given that you already accept that the duality gap along the central path is $m/t$, then the inequality you're struggling with is really rather simple.

In a paper by Joos and Zeh, Z Phys B 59 (1985) 223, they say:This 'coming into being of classical properties' appears related to what Heisenberg may have meant by his famous remark [7]: 'Die "Bahn" entsteht erst dadurch, dass wir sie beobachten.'Google Translate says this means something ... @EmilioPisanty Tough call. ...
CS-92-56 Title Applying Database Dependency Theory to Software Engineering Authors D. Raymond and F.W. Tompa Abstract We describe the use of database dependency theory for investigating software designs. Dependency theory cap- tures some of the essential constraints implicit in a sys- tem, and focuses attention on its ...
Hello, I've never ventured into char before but cfr suggested that I ask in here about a better name for the quiz package that I am getting ready to submit to ctan (tex.stackexchange.com/questions/393309/…). Is something like latex2quiz too audacious? Also, is anyone able to answer my questions about submitting to ctan...
$$x = c_1\cos (t) + c_2\sin (t) $$ is a two-parameter family of solutions of the second-order DE $$x'' + x = 0. $$ Find a solution of the second-order IVP consisting of this differential equation and the given initial conditions: $$x\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \frac{1}{2} $$ and $$x'\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = 0 $$ I...
Definition:Differential/Functional Definition Let $J \sqbrk y$ be a differentiable functional. Let $h$ be an increment of the independent variable $y$. Then the term linear with respect to $h$ is called the differential of the functional $J$, and is denoted by $\delta J \sqbrk {y; h}$. Notes For a differentiable functi...
Suppose I made a tag and it is used by many people everyday, so will it increase my reputation? And also, suppose no one uses it even once for a long time, i.e. 6 months, then? Maybe it could be called book-errata? I cannot give many examples of discussions from math.SE offhand but at least one example from here Find l...
This is something of a partial idea, a work in progress. Let's say there is some factor of production $M$ allocated across $p$ different firms. The $p$-volume bounded by this budget constraint is: V = \frac{M^{p}}{p!} $$ p-volume bounded by budget constraint M Let's say total output $N$ is proportional to the volume $V...
Suppose we have $75$ boxes that are labeled from $1$ to $75$ and that in each box there is at least one ball, but there are not more than $125$ balls total. I'm trying to find the largest number $n \in \left\{1,\, \ldots,\, 75 \right\}$ such that this statement is true: There is a collection of neighbouring boxes that ...
I am trying to plot a function $ {\bf x}(t) = a(t)\hat{v} + {\bf b}(t) $$ {\bf x}(t) = r(t)\hat{v} + {\bf b}(t) $, with unit vector $ \hat{v} $ and vector $ {\bf b}(t) $ given in spherical coordinates. For simplicity, assume that $ \hat{v} = (\sin\theta\cos\phi, \sin\theta\sin\phi, \cos\theta) $, and $ {\bf b}(t) = [t,...
Consider a tensor $T\in\mathbb{R}^{N\times N\times N\times M}$ and two vectors $x,y\in\mathbb{R}^N$. I want to compute the $N\times M$ vector defined by $X_{ij}=\operatorname{tr}(x^\top T_{:,:,i,j}y)=\operatorname{tr}_{12}(yx^\top T)$ efficiently. I tried this in two different ways: TCtable[x_, T_, y_] := ParallelTable...
I'm a bit confuse with all theses notions. Let $E$ a normed vector space of infinite dimension (also Banach, but it's probably not important). The theorem of Eberlin Smulian theorem says that : all bounded sequence that has a subsequence that converge weakly $\iff$ it's reflexive. (In fact it just says implication, but...
