Riemann Definition and 619 Threads

So the question is Evaluate (x-2)dx as the integral goes from -2 to 2 using the definition of a definite integral, choosing your sample points to be the right endpoints of the subintervals… Ok, so i understand how to do this problem if it gave me an actual number of interval like n=6 but it...

Suppose we are given two projection operators H' and H'' such that H' + H'' = 1, i.e. that any vector can be written as V = V' + V'' = (H' + H'') V. I'm trying to prove the formula $$R(X',Y'')Z' \cdot V'' = (Z' \cdot (\nabla'_{X'}B') + \left<X'\cdot B', Z' \cdot B'\right>)(Y'', V'') + (V''...

The Riemann hypothesis states, whenever the Riemann zeta function hits 0, the real part of the input must be 0.5. Does any input with real part being 0.5 make the function hit 0? Also, assuming the hypothesis is true, would it suffice to prove that if the input's real part is not 0.5, then the...

The Euler-Maclaurin summation formula and the Riemann zeta function The Euler-Maclaurin summation formula states that if $f(x)$ has $(2p+1)$ continuous derivatives on the interval $[m,n]$ (where $m$ and $n$ are natural numbers), then $$ \sum_{k=m}^{n-1} f(k) = \int_{m}^{n} f(x) \ dx -...

Hello all, In Carroll's there is a brief mention of how to get an idea about the curvature tensor using two infinitesimal vectors. Exercise 7 in Chapter 3 asks to compute the components of Riemann tensor by using the series expression for the parallel propagator. Can anyone please provide a...

Suppose we have one polynom ##P(r_1, r_2, \ldots, r_n) = 0## in n complex variables. This defines a n-1 dimensional complex algebraic surface. Suppose that for each variable we have ##r_i = e^{ip_i}## with complex p. In the case n=1 of one variable r this results in the complex logarithm...

Assume that a function f:[a,b]\to\mathbb{R} is differentiable in all points of its domain, and that the derivative f':[a,b]\to\mathbb{R} is bounded. Is the derivative necessarily Riemann integrable? This what I know: Fact 1: Assume that a function is differentiable at all points of its domain...

Here is another integral representation of $\zeta(s)$ that is valid for all complex values of $s$. It's similar to the first one, but a bit harder to derive.$ \displaystyle \zeta(s) = 2 \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\sin (s \arctan t)}{(1+t^{2})^{s/2} (e^{2 \pi t} - 1)} \ dt + \frac{1}{2} +...

Show that $\displaystyle \zeta(s) = \frac{2^{s-1}}{1-2^{1-s}} \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{\cos (s \arctan t)}{(1+t^{2})^{s/2} \cosh \left( \frac{\pi t}{2} \right)} \ dt $The cool thing about this representation is that it is valid for all complex values of $s$ excluding $s=1$. This integral is...

I'll preface this by saying that this just isn't getting through to me. I know the material, but my brain feels like it doesn't, for lack of a better word, "fit." Looking back at Riemann surfaces in complex analysis after familiarizing myself with some differential geometry really makes them...

I want to be able to formulate x^{n} coordinate system. x^{n} =(x^{1}, x^{2}, x^{3}, x^{4}) How do you do this when the Riemann Manifold is not rectangular or spherical? Also how do you differentiate with respect to "s" in that case. \frac{dx^n}{ds}

I saw this in one of the episodes of Numb3rs - (a T.V. show that describes how math can be used to solve crimes) It basically said that if Riemann hypothesis is true then it could break all the internet security. I want to know how. I couldn't understand Riemann hypothesis from Wikipedia and...

I quote a question from Yahoo! Answers I have given a link to the topic there so the OP can see my response.

hello Can you perhaps explain what does the Riemann curvature scalar R measure? or is just an abstract entity ? What does the Ricci tensor measure ? I just want to grasp this and understand what they do. cheers, typo: What DO they measure in the title.

hi Riemann tensor has a definition that independent of coordinate and dimension of manifold where you work with it. see for example Geometry,Topology and physics By Nakahara Ch.7 In that book you can see a relation for Riemann tensor and that is usual relation according to Christoffel...

When we map the algebraic function, w(z), to a Riemann surface we essentially create a new "Riemann" coordinate system over a surface that is called the "algebraic function's Riemann surface". This mapping allows one to create single-valued functions, f(z,w), of the coordinate points over...

hello For the same Friedmann metric, Landau (Classical theory of fields) finds a value for the Riemann curvature scalar which is given in section 107 : R = 6/a3( a + d2(a)/dt2) whereas in MTW , in box 14.5 , equation 6 , its value is : R = 6(a-1 d2(a)/dt2 + a-2 (1 + (d(a)/dt)2 ) ) The...

So the beginning of Rudin's Real and Complex Analysis states that the Riemann integral on an interval [a,b] can be approximated by sums of the form \Sigma\stackrel{i=1}{n}f(ti)m(Ei) where the Ei are disjoint intervals whose union is the whole interval. At least when I learned it, the Riemann...

I don't mean to sound ignorant, but when reading up on complex analysis in the broad sense, I don't really see the point of introducing Riemann surfaces. It's a way of making multivalued functions single valued, but so what? I don't see the utility of such an idea, which isn't to argue there is...
