Hi folks, the subject line says it.
I'm currently using geogebra as a note book in which to write "memory cards" in latex.
You know the sort of thing: when you learn a new formula and want to keep it in virtual "card" form.
I love Sticky Notes, but I can't get latex on to them.
does anyone...
i was reading a Murray Gell Mann interview and he mentioned that Heisenberg became a crank in his later years.
I've tried very hard but I cannot find what Heisenberg was working on. My motivation is, there may be some bits of genius among that pile of crackpottery.
I came to these forums with the question how do I understand math intuitively. I joined and started this topic https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=614527. I wanted to be able apply the methods quickly, without any calculation, so I could gain some further understanding. I read a few...

Weak Duality Theorem. If x ε ℝn is feasible for P and x ε ℝm is feasible for D, then
cTx ≤ yTAx ≤ bTy.
Thus, if P is unbounded, then D is necessarily infeasible, and if D is unbounded, then P is necessarily infeasible. Moreover, if cTx = bTy with x feasible for P and y...
Hi there,
does anyone know a software or program that i can use to quickly sketch / draw and write as if i was writing in pencil ?
For instance, paint is of no use, because it can't be edited. Photoshop is kind of hard to simply make straight or curvy lines without too much trouble.
So...
So we're converting these currents from phasor to time domain with ω=4.
I understand I1, but not how the lecturer got I2, is this an error with the notes?
We have these phasors:
Which are converted to this time domain (respectively):
Any help is much appreciated.
I want to make my own math notes in the same style as this. Anyone know the program that is used?
It is the easiest to read font I have ever read in my life!

Hello everyone.
I'm trying to do a homework in digital integrated electronics class and feel like I can finish it only if I had a good set of notes.

We are currently going over Kinetics in my AP Chemistry class but I am struggling with kinetics, our book is not very clear and tackles on several ideas at once making it hard to understand. My teacher is also not very helpful, sadly. I have been searching for some notes on Kinetics but have not...
You must have worked with some (books, lecture notes or internet materials) which make you master new topics. Could you suggest your choice to all? I want to follow others' track to study. If you got a nice material, you can generously upload and share the links of the lecture notes and...
So I'm starting to review Calculus and I was wondering what you guys do for taking notes from textbooks since I don't normally take notes and I would only read the text when necessary. I am debating taking the following options:

Hi! I'm new to college so i have a few questions.
What specific things do you pay attention to when in a mathematics heavy course?
Have you tried using tablets or laptops to take notes?
For those of you that have used tablets do you have a recommendation for a specific tablet and programs?
One day I borrowed a book published by Springer (For learning Mechanics). I find it very difficult to follow. Later, I discover that it is in fact Lecture Notes. I am only a yr 1 physics student, but I want to explore as many area in physics as I can.
My question is, are Lecture Notes such as...
Hi all , How can I find lecture notes on ArXiv ? I was looking for lecture notes on Yang-mills theories treated in the language of differential geometry but didn't succeed till now . Can some one recommend me some good resource for it?
For fun, I wrote some notes on integration which should provide a good solid introduction to the subject. They are not analysis notes but more of a first introduction to integration.
Any (constructive) comments or suggestions are always welcome.

I have made some study notes on probability. Please have a look and see if there are recommendations. I'm forced to follow the syllabus in Hong Kong so I had to add some boring and nonsense stuff inside (unfortunately).
Hello,
I am currently writing a paper for submission to the PRL. I wish to put in a note after the names of the first two authors, stating "These authors have contributed equally to this work". I would like to solicit the help of the Physics Forums community in knowing how to do this. In some...

Let's see if anyone can identify the author of some 1980's lecture notes on introductory linear algebra.
I bought this bound set of lecture notes in a used book store. The title stamped on the binding is "Linear Algebra . Thomas". These are images of 8 by 11 1/2 inch typewritten pages...

i'm taking the first semester of intro chem (major-level) and i was wondering if anyone knows of good online notes to supplement what i learn in class? thanks so much :)
I was wondering if there is any compelling reason to read the assigned book instead of lecture notes either from the actually professor of the course you are taking or from another another source online as opposed to the book if they seem to cover the same material.
Currently, I in my 3 "real...
Hi.
I'm reading these notes:

I would like to know if anyone who had a good introductory GR course would mind sending me the scanned lectures notes if this person has them.
I think textbooks have too many words and I prefer to study lecture notes.
I am sorry if this was not the correct place for my post.
Didn't know what section to really post this, but exam time approaches. And we all know what that means. That's right, procrastinate by doing the most mundane things just to avoid studying! Last year was adding lyrics and album art to every song on my iPod. Took about a good 8 days. This time I...
I just finished the first week of the term. It was very loaded I must say. I also ended my introductory courses and I'm now taking upper level undergraduate physics courses.
