Homework Statement Draw a contour map of the function showing several level curves. f(x,y) = x^3 - y Homework Equations f(x, y) = x^3 - y The Attempt at a Solution I think I should be finding the domain and range, but other than that I am not sure what else I need to do.

Homework Statement Prove that the nonempty fibers of a map form a partition of the domain. The Attempt at a Solution Ok so we have some map phi: S -->T And we want to show that its pre-image phi-1(t) = {s in S | phi(s)=t} forms a partition of the domain. Im really confused here. I assume...

Derive the circuit that implements the state table http://silvercurvemedia.com/alex/flyers/state%20table.jpg The Attempt at a Solution I know you can get your equations for the circuit from either the table itself or through a Karnaugh map, but I prefer using a karnaugh map. How exactly would...

I need a conformal mapping that would map an ellipse or a circle to a line. I need this for the http://physics.indiana.edu/~berger/p506_fall2008/p506ps6.pdf" . As far as I can understand, z^2 + 1/z^2 makes the geometry similar to that of a plane on the horizontal axis with a circle centered...

Hi, I am having some problems understanding the degree of a continuous map g:circle --> circle I have found a definition in Munkres (pg 367) that I can't really understand (I'm an engineering student with little algebraic topology) and one in Lawson (pg 181), Topology:A Geometric approach...

Recall that for an nxn matrix A, the (i,i)-minor of A is defined as M_{ij}(A)=detA(i|j), where A(j|i) stands for the matrix (n-1)x(n-1) obtained from A by removing the ith line and jth column. Also note that we can view det as a map from R^n x ... x R^n to R taking n vectors from R^n, staking...

Homework Statement This is actually a programming assignment, however it's very math involved. Given a set of points in R3 (x,y,z coordinates plus a weighted value) that are known to be coplanar, I need to draw an appropriately rotated, scaled, and colored plane intersecting the data. We...

Im reviewing material for the exam and came across this question: Let pi_1:RxR->R be the projection on the first coordinate. Let A be the subspace of RxR consisitng of all points (x,y) s.t either x>=0 or (inclusive or) y=0. let q:A->R be obtained by resticting pi_1. show that q is quotient...

I'm a bit confused as to how the text Tensor Analysis on Manifolds, by Bishop and Goldberg on page 6. The authors define the term power set as follows _________________________________________ If A is a set, we denote by PA the collection of all subsets of A, PA = {C| C is a subset of A}...

[SOLVED] The four color map?? so i guess most of you know about the four color map theorm. i read about it in a book a couple of days ago and had some idle brain time today while driving a tractor. i scribbled out some maps on the dirt on the windows and always seems to enclose one region...

[SOLVED] Show map is injective Homework Statement Going crazy over this. Let 1<p<2 and q>=2 be its conjugate exponent. I want to show that the map T: L^p(E) --> (L^q(E))*: x-->T(x) where <T(x),y> = \int_Ex(t)y(t)dt is injective. This amount to showing that if \int_Ex(t)y(t)dt=0 for all...

The question is to prove for finite dimensional T: V to W, T is injective iff there exists an S: W to V such that ST is the identity map on V. I can't quite make the connection between injectivity and the identity map. any suggestions? thanks in advance.

Apologies if this is the wrong forum, but I have a pair of thematically connected questions that I can't really fit anywhere else. Please move if this is better suited to the quantum physics forums. My first question being: The Poincare-Bendixon theorem states that chaos can only occur for...

[SOLVED] form of a linear map Homework Statement Say E is a linear space (not necessarily of finite dimension), and R is the real numbers. Say we have a (contiuous) linear form T from E x R to R. Can we say T is of such and such a form? Particularily, can we say that T=g1+g2 where g1:E-->R...

My question is the following: " For the logistic map x_{k+1} = rx_k(1-x_k) the band-merging point, where the period-1 orbit undergoes its first homoclinic bifurcation, is at r=3.678573510. Draw a trajectory to the map that illustrates the homoclinic orbit. " The period-1 orbit is at the...

Can someone explain how to create a function that will map an interval of the real line onto some other interval? Is there a general method? Can you demonstrate? (30 140) to (200, 260)? Thanks, Diffy.

At Perimeter Institute, Bianca Dittrich recently gave a survey introduction to (non-string) QG with Lee Smolin and Leonard Susskind asking questions among other. The talk video is online PIRSA 07120030 and the title was Introduction to Quantum Gravity I think of this as a kind of QG map from...

hello, I've been reading some proofs and in keep finding this same argument tyo prove that a linear map is injective viz, we suppose that t(a,c) = 0 and then we deduce that a,c = 0,0. is it the case that the only way a linear map could be non injective is if it took two elements to zero? i.e. t...

I am a believer that globalization is not only unavoidable, but also that in the long term it is good for everyone. However, we see tremendous inequities between developed and developing nations in the labor and environmental protection laws, safety laws, enforcement of these laws, and oversight...

QG has several approaches developing rapidly and it's not easy to maintain perspective. I'll update a rough outline map made earlier. We can use it to help know what papers to expect during the next couple of months and what developments to be prepared for. A. Three main sectors of...

This is not directly a homework problem, so I opted not to place this question there. From what I have read/gathered from the internet/my textbook, a quotient mapping is any surjective, continuous mapping from a space X to a space comprised of the equivalence classes of all x in X from a...

Homework Statement Decide whether each map is an isomorphism (if it is an isomorphism then prove it and if it isn’t then state a condition that it fails to satisfy). Homework Equations f : M2×2 ---- P^3 given by: a b c d --- c + (d + c)x + (b + a)x^2 + ax^3 The Attempt at...

Is there a diffrence between a map and a transform or are they the same thing? My math book uses the term map but i studyed transforms in lin alg and they seem like the same thing. please help me get this straight in my head.

Homework Statement Give a specific example of an operator T on R^4 such that, 1. dim(nullT) = dim(rangeT) and 2. dim(the intersection of nullT and rangeT) = 1 The attempt at a solution I know that dim(R^4) = dim(nullT) + dim(rangeT) = 4, so dim(nullT) = dim(rangeT) = 2. I also...

I want to prove that if all the eigenvalues of a linear transformation T : V --> V are zero, then T = 0. I think this is obvious but I'm having difficulty putting it into words. If all the eigenvalues of T are zero, then there exists a basis B for V in which [T]_B is the zero matrix. Thus...
