Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to compute probability related to a problem I am tackling for work, and I think I have a handle on how to do it with smaller numbers, but no idea how to approach it for larger numbers. (And I need to explain the answers to a judge in simple terms). So here is...

I know this post is in the topology thread of this forum, for group theory, this seemed like the reasonable choice to post it in. I realize group theory is of great importance in physics and I'm trying to eventually understand Emmy Noether's theorem.

This is, perhaps, more a question of philosophy of math rather than math itself.
While it may be trivial to most people fluent in math, it was a bit surprising for me to learn recently that the set of algebraic numbers is countable. However, I quickly realized why that is: Each algebraic number...
Is it purely coincidental that the internal symmetry related flavor quantum numbers(like isospin and weak isospin) and the spacetime symmetry related spin quantum number have SU(2) as underlying group?
They refer to seemingly unrelated things but it is remarkable how ubiquitous SU(2) is.
Do we use imaginary numbers just in the intermediary steps of a predictive theory? For example, in QM, in order to make predictions in the real world, you square the wave function. The wave function might have have all the information, but in order to predict something you must operate on it to...

I am very unsure of how to solve this question.

Definition/Summary
A perfect number is a number which is the sum of its proper divisors (half the sum of its total divisors). Even perfect numbers are a Mersenne prime times a power of two; odd perfect numbers are not known to exist.

Let \mathbb{R} be the set of all real numbers. We can extend \mathbb{R} by adjoining two elements +\infty and -\infty. This forms the extended real number system. In notation:

The extended real numbers are...
Why are perfect numbers important?
What is the best way of introducing these numbers to a first course on number theory?
I could not find any application apart from the relation to Mersenne primes. Are there any other applications of perfect numbers?

We know that i^3 is -i .
But I am getting confused, because I thought that i can be written as √(-1) and i^3 = √(-1) × √(-1) × √(-1) = √(-1 × -1 × -1) = √( (-1)^2 × -1) = √(1× -1) = √(-1) = i

Hey again! (Rock)(Wasntme)
I want to show that there are infinitely many composite numbers $n$,for which stands:
$$a^{n-1} \equiv 1 \pmod n$$
So,it must be: $n \mid a^{n-1}-1$
But how can I show that there are infinitely many such $n$ ?? (Thinking)
