Analo-operator theory proof:
For a bounded Teoplitz operator $T(W)$ with "kernel" $W \in L^2(S^1,\mathbb{R})$ we have $|T| = \operatorname{sup}\operatorname{Spec}T$ . Since $W = \text{const.}\in L^2(S^1,\mathbb{R})$ trivially we see $|T| = 4$ , the largest eigenvalue.

Geometric proof:
Notice that $\underset{{\bf x}\in\mathbb{R}^2}{\operatorname{sup}}\frac{|T{\bf x}|}{|{\bf x}|} = \operatorname{sup}\frac{R}{r}$ , where $R$ is the distance from the origin to the ellipse $E_R = \{{\bf x}\mid 4x^2+ y^2 = R^2\}$ and $r$ is that to the circle $C_r = \{{\bf x}\mid x^2 + y^2 = r^2\}$ . Now since we get $\frac{|T{\bf x}|}{|{\bf x}|} = 1$ for ${\bf x} = (0,y)$ , we know that $E_R$ and $C_r$ intersect tangentially (at two points), and can hence be parameterized by the same variable $t$ , via e.g. rational parameterization. Since $R(t)$ and $r(t)$ have the same quadratic scaling through this parameterization, for each $t$ we see that $\underset{{\bf x}\in\mathbb{R}^2}{\operatorname{sup}}\frac{|T{\bf x}|}{|{\bf x}|} = 4$ , the ratio of the major axis $R_x$ of the ellipse $E_R$ to the radius $r$ of the circle $C_r$ .

$||T|| \geq 2$ because you can look at vector $[1, 0]$

Fun new paradox: Suppose we have two points in a topological space, A and B, and a well ordered set I, beginning with A and ending with B, such that every element has a path leading it to its successor.
If the cardinality of I is sufficiently large, glueing the paths together into a path from A to B becomes impossible, but they're path connected nonetheless.

"gluing every interval to its successor" doesn't really describe a path connected topology.
For example, the intervals 1..2..3.. are connected to each other, but then comes $\omega$ which doesn't have a predecessor, so it isn't connected in any way to the previous ones.
Well-ordered doesn't imply "every item has a previous one".

In general if $T\in B(\mathcal{H})$ on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is Toeplitz then $|T| \leq |\operatorname{Spec}T(W)|$ , where $W$ is the Wiener-Hopf symbol (math)/kernel (physics) of $T$ and the norm $|\cdot|$ here is the (virtual) Lebesgue measure. Equality is saturated by diagonalizable $T$ , i.e. if $X = L^2(S^1,\mathbb{C})$ with a $L^1$ kernel $W$ : Fourier transform leads to $T$ being Toeplitz and unitary.
See Bottcher's book for a proof.

When you get far enough. The beginning is quite dry, as you'll be fucking with preimages, unions and intersections, but then you get some insight on why some things you've already encountered in analysis hold (without having to rely on stupid shit like infimum and supremum), which is quite nice. After that, you will get to the purer stuff like compactifications and Tychonoff's theorem etc., and then you will either see it as interesting or a re-emergence of autism. That is when you will know whether you want to go further that path.

You should probably have taken analysis first.
I really think it's important to have topology if you want to go to grad school, it's foundational to pretty much anything.

Point-set topology is a requirement for about 60% of everything, from Riemannian geometry to harmonic analysis and homological algebra. You absolutely should go study it.
But it's easy to pick up later. 90% definitions you use elsewhere, 10% Jordan's closed curve.

How can I think of a projection with center L, a line?

So for example, in P^3 taking a projection with center the line being the z-axis (ie x=y=0) sends a point to its first two coordinates. So if we have a variety in P^3, how does this translate geometrically through this projection?

I understand projections with center being a point by a line tracing through a variety into a hyperplane, but I'm not seeing how the higher dimensional analogues work

>Given the polynomial is irreducible over the field Z5, find all zeros of p(x) in the field obtained by adjoining a zero of p(x) to F. There are 3 zeros.

>p(x) = x^3 + x^2 + 1

I feel like there's some trick here that I'm missing. All I can think to do (and I've gone pretty far down that road) is to explicitly calculate the polynomial for some arbitrary element of the extension field, which is this ghastly set of coefficients that doesn't give me any insight at all. I can (tediously) check that the zeros listed in the back of the book are in fact zeros this way. But all I can think in terms of strategy is to test out each possibility -- and there are 75 of them!)

this is a simple extension field, and I do understand why the added element is a zero.

Nope. This is simply the fact that a function f: X -> Y sends every element in X to precisely one element in Y. If you had a = b but not f(a) = f(b), then f would send a to at least 2 elements in Y, and thus f would not be a function.

that's not what injective means
what you just said literally is equivalent to "if a = b then f(a) = f(b)" which is obviously true for any function
a function is injective if we have "if f(a) = f(b), then a = b" or equivalently, "if a is not equal to b, then f(a) is not equal to f(b)".
usually the former is easier to prove but the latter is easier to understand.

No. Grabbing or exposing body parts at work is not just gross; it also derails and blocks our professional advancement and therefore our access to power in the society. Sadly, women at work are too often seen as primarily personal and sexual beings who should be satisfied with social popularity and possibly sexual gratification instead of seeking actual professional success. Our complaints about men who sabotage our careers are dismissed as “personal” disagreements...

> is the Stone-Cech compactification used for anything at all?
Well surprisingly, it can occur "naturally". I have just seen this used yesterday. If you take $R = \prod_{i \in I} F_i$ an infinite product of fields , then the prime ideals of R correspond naturally to the ultrafilters on your index set: if you have an ultrafilter U, then R maps to the ultraproduct of the F_i wrt U (which is a field by Los' theorem), hence the kernel gives a prime ideal; conversely, if you have a prime ideal $\mathfrak p$ of R and a subset S of I, then the "sequence" $x = (x_i)$ with $x_i = 1$ for i in S and 0 otherwise is an idempotent of R (ie. x^2 = x) and therefore either x or 1-x maps to 0 in $R/\mathfrak p$ . Hence, you can define an ultrafilter U by decreeing that S is in U iff the sequence x defined as above maps to 0 mod p.
Hence, set-theoretically it is the Stone-Cech compactification.
If, in addition you make some topological assumptions on the fields (I don't remember right now), then the set of prime ideals can be endowed with a topology that is homeo to the bone fide Stone-Cech compactification.

Yeah. Just keep in mind that math is very much a cumulatively learned subject, if you don't understand a topic and go on anyway you're going to get the wrecked. I think this is why so many people are terrible at math, they never got fractions or basic algebra or whatever down and their learning essentially stopped there. You can definitely get your math skills up to par before summer, you just have to make sure you're disciplined and take as much time as you need to really understand stuff, even if its elementary.

Have no idea about Coq, but GAP is pretty good for calculations with groups. Can do pretty much everything and has huge libraries for finite groups. It is also reasonably well equipped to do representation theory of finite groups.

In my opinion it beats MAGMA, because its open source and has thus less bugs/incorrect data, although it lacks some of MAGMAs functionality if you need some very specific things, like homological algebra stuffs etc.

SAGE is also not bad at providing a nice all around computational toolset, but it is not as focused as GAP. I think you can access some of GAP's shit with SAGE, so that is a plus I guess.

Sounds like you want to take math as a hobby. If you won't even pursue a related, perhaps applied field such as engineering, then it's better to not pay for college at all. When you pay for a college or university you are NOT paying for the lectures —you might even be able to audit the lectures for free unless they're up their own ass or something—, but rather to certificate your expertise in a given field of knowledge. You're paying for the grading, your title and maybe some small services if the institution offers them. Your idea of "learning the basics" for the love of it is noble, but the way you propose to execute it amounts to a big waste of money that'll only benefit the shoddy college you're planning to attend.
Given that you can access the Internet you pretty much have no excuses to avoid self-studying: readily available books, notes, recorded lectures and community forums given that you know how to search for them.

Real and complexanalysis (unless you already did proper proofs in calc) and abstract algebra.
or you can just take topology directly, it has little prerequesites. if you are into arithmetric geometry, start with elementary number theory.

honestly, studying stuff to understand mochizuki (who is probably wrong on abc) instead of doing stuff you actually enjoy sounds like a horrible plan.

mathlet here, any help with this question? It seems to me it would depend on what the function was right? even though the integrals use all the same values.

Answer each question about the surface area S on a surface given by a positive function z= f(x,y) over a region R in the xy-plane. Explain each answer.

(a) Is it possible for S to equal the area of R?

(b) Can S be greater than the area of R?

(c) Can S be less than the area of R?

Yes, yes, no.

It's the 2D version of whether the length of the curve defined by y=f(x) over [a,b] can be equal to, greater than, or less than b-a.

Essentially, you're comparing the integral of 1/cos(a) (where a is the angle between the line/surface and the horizontal) to the integral of 1, both over the same region. And 1/cos(a)>=1.

It is about as hard as any other mathematical program, such as Mathematica, MAGMA, etc. If you have a basic understaning of any other classical programming language, you should be fine. There is plenty of documentation, about how to use GAP and all its functions, with lots of examples. See
https://www.gap-system.org/Doc/manuals.html

All in all I'd say it is very similar to python.

This is basically asking if the vertical projection of the surface has more or less surface area.

(a) Any constant function will do. Even easier is z=0.

(b) While almost every other continuous function will do, I think a more general way to do it that doesn't involving hand-waving is to take a small open subset inside R and create a partition-of-unity-type function on z=0.

(c) While intuitively this is correct, it's not entirely obvious. I think the proof can be handled in a couple stages:

(1) Consider any P be any plane in 3D space, and let R' be any bounded subset and R its projection onto the xy plane. Then Area(R')cos(t)=Area(R) where t is the angle the plane P makes with the xy plane. In particular, the area in the xy plane is smaller or equal to the area in the plane P.

(2) Any (almost everywhere) continuous function (or Riemann integrable) can be subdivided into small enough rectangles, such that for any epsilon, the discrepancy between the surface area and the sum of the area of the rectangles is less than epsilon.

(3) Take any bounded region S of the surface and let R be the vertical projection. The area of the sum of the rectangles covering S is bounded below by Area(R) by (1)

(4) Since epsilon was arbitrary, you can conclude that Area(S) is bigger or equal to Area(R).

To "get good" at any sort of mathematics you need to actually DO mathematics, not just read them passively. I know you don't literally mean to just read the book, but this is an important thing to note, nonetheless. The following quote from Paul Halmos encapsulates my point well:

>The only way to learn mathematics is to do mathematics. That tenet is the foundation of the do-it-yourself, Socratic, or Texas method, the method in which the teacher plays the role of an omniscient but largely uncommunicative referee between the learner and the facts. (...)

>The right way to read mathematics is first to read the definitions of the concepts and the statements of the theorems, and then, putting the book aside, to try to discover the appropriate proofs. If the theorems are not trivial, the attempt might fail, but it is likely to be instructive just the same. To the passive reader a routine computation and a miracle of ingenuity come with equal ease, and later, when he must depend on himself, he will find that they went just as easily as they came. The active reader, who has found out what does not work, is in a much better position to understand the reason for the success of the author's method, and, later, to find answers that are not in books.

As for the "notation" you speak of, it's just a pretty standard way to write, as generically as possible, a number as the product of its prime factors. for instance, instead of $a = t_1^{g_1} t_2^{g_2} \ldots t_v^{g_v}$ we could've written $24=2^3\cdot3$ , but this is merely one particular case: here, $a=24$ and $v=2$ . A good book if you want to study this, in particular, is David Burton's Elementary Number Theory.

I'm not sure if you're just meme-ing or what, but you're probably familiar with matrices, which for a noncommutative algebra. All of quantum mechanics is based on (possibly) noncommutative operators. Without them you would not have Heisenberg uncertainty, for instance.

As far as I am aware (keep in mind I am a geometer not an algebraist) rings without unit are mostly useful as a technical trick when working with augmented rings (which are widespread in algebra and geometry, c.f. deformation theory in algebraic geometry which studies augmented commutative algebras or stacky generalizations thereof). Simply: given a map R -> k of k-algebras the kernel will be a nonunital algebra. You might also frequently run into them in the theory of Hochschild homology, etc.
