Mathematical analysis. Consider a more specific tag instead: (real-analysis), (complex-analysis), (functional-analysis), (fourier-analysis), (measure-theory), (calculus-of-variations), etc. For data analysis, use (data-analysis).

Mathematical analysis is the rigorous version of calculus. In fact, it investigates the theorems in calculus with enough care and deals with them more deeply, trying to generalize the ideas in calculus. You can consider a more specific tag instead: , , , , , , etc. For data analysis, use .

Understanding the equation $|x+1|=x^2 -1$

I want to understand the equation $$|x+1|=x^2 -1$$ $$\Leftrightarrow x^2 - |x+1| - 1 = 0$$ Case $1$: $$x+1 \geq 0 \Rightarrow x^2 - x-2 = 0$$ $$x_{1,2} = \frac{1}{2} \big( 1\pm \sqrt{1-4\cdot(-2)} \big) = \frac{1}{2}(1\pm3) \Rightarrow x_1 = 2, x_2…

How to show $f\equiv 0$?

$f(x)$ is differentiable, and for any $x\in \mathbb R$, $|f'(x)|\le \lambda |x|$, then how to show $f\equiv 0$ ? This is a question my student ask me, but I don't know how to deal it. So ask help here. Thanks for any hint or answer.

Suppose $f (x)$ is bounded and has a primitive on $[a,\,b]$, and $g\in C \big([a,\,b]\big) $. Must $f (x)\cdot g (x)$ have a primitive?

Suppose $f (x)$ is bounded and has a primitive on $[a,\,b]$, and $g\in C \big([a,\,b]\big) $. Must $f (x)\cdot g (x)$ have a primitive? Suppose it has a primitive, then it's necessary to be Riemann integrable in $[a,\,b]$.

Open or Closed set in sup norm

$ B=\big\{x= (x_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}:|x_n|<\epsilon\text{ for all }n\in \mathbb{N}\big\}$ , where $\epsilon>0$ is given in $(\ell^{\infty},||\cdot||_{\infty})$ How do I go about showing if this set is open or closed?

Is it possible that $n^{\alpha}$ is rational for all $n \in \mathbb{N}$ with $0 < \alpha <1$?

I think that is impossible, i.e., for each $\alpha \in (0,1)$, there exists $n_0 \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $n_0^{\alpha}$ is irrational. Or equivalently, there is no $\alpha \in (0,1)$ such that $n^{\alpha}$ is rational for each $n \in…

Evaluate $\lim_{x\to0+}\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}2^{-n}\frac{\sin (2^nx)}{x}$.

Suppose $\displaystyle f(x)=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}2^{-n}\sin(2^nx)$, evaluate $$ \lim_{x\to0+}\frac{f(x)-f(0)}{x}. $$ $f(x)$ converges uniformly on $\mathbb R$. But I don't know how to evaluate $$ \lim_{x\to0+}\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}2^{-n}\frac{\sin…

A homeomorphism of the unit disk that cannot be extended to the boundary of its domain

I have a problem with the following exercise: Let $D^2$ be the unit disc and S^1 be the unit circle. Show that the function $ h: {D^2\setminus{S^1}} \to {D^2\setminus{S^1}} \\ h(re^{it})= \begin{cases} 0 &\text{if}\, r=0 \\ r \cdot…

Evaluate $ \lim_{n\to+\infty}\sum_{k=1}^{n}(e^{\frac{k^2}{n^3}}-1)$.

Evaluate $$ \lim_{n\to+\infty}\sum_{k=1}^{n}(e^{\frac{k^2}{n^3}}-1). $$ Since $\sum_{k=1}^{n}(e^{\frac{k^2}{n^3}}-1)\leq n(e^{\frac{1}{n}})-n$, which implies that the limit is no more than $1$. But I met some problems in the method of enlarging…

Some estimation a series by integral

Let $a \in (0,1)$. Does there exist a constant $C>0$ or function $C(a)>0$, which may be a function of $a$ but not $k$, such that $$ \sum_{n=1}^\infty a^n n^k \leq C(a) \int_0^\infty a^x x^k dx $$ for all $k \in \mathbb N$?

Does in invertibility of Hessian matrix $H_{F(X)}$ implies $v^tH_{f(X)}v\neq 0$?

Let $U$ be an open convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $f: U\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ be a function having continuous first and second partial derivatives on $U$. Let $H_{f(X)}$ denote the Hessian of $f$ at $X\in U$. If $\det(H_{f(X)})\neq 0$ for all…

Evaluate $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}T_n\frac{x^n}{n!}$ where $T_n$ is the number of distinct partitions of $\{1,\cdots,n\}$

A partition of set $\Omega_n=\{1,\cdots,n\}$ is a family of nonempty sets $\{B_i\}$ where $\bigcup_iB_i=\Omega_n$ and $B_i\cap B_j=\emptyset\,(j\ne i)$. $\{\Omega_n\}$ is also a partition of $\Omega_n$. Evaluate…

Open interval, prove that you can derive new numbers

Prove If $I$ is an open interval, and if $x\in I$ , then there is some $d > 0$ such that $[x-d; x+d ] \in I$ I, for the life of me can't figure this one out. Despite being preceded by an easy exercise, and being seemingly intuitive, I just can't…
