Investigate the stability of the PECE method where P=Predictor : y_(n+1) = y_n + hf(y_n) C=Corrector: y_(n+1) = y_n + h [(1-θ) f(y_n) + θ f(y_(n+1))], (0<θ<1) and E is the evaluation step. => substituting the predictor into corrector gives:y_(n+1) = y_n + h [(1-θ) f(y_n) + θf( y_n+ h f y_n...

Fint the modified equation when the implicit Euler method is applied to y'= f(y). If f(y)=λy, where λ is negative. what is the effect on the amplication factor? => y ' = λ * y dy / dx = λ * y dy / y = λ dx ln y = λ* x + C y = Ae^( λ* x ), the constant factor does not depend on λ. i...

I have a model (autoregressive model) described as follows: Y(n)=Y(n-1)*c This model in math, is it considered non-linear? In DSP (digital signal processing), it is called autoregressive. Why in math, this model is not studied? Or, what is the name of the topic discussing this model? (i want to...

For the equation dy/dt =y(1-ky), where k is a constant,find the fixed points and investigate their stability. what are the fixed points of the modified Euler Scheme applied to this equation and what is their stability? => dy / dt = y ( 1 - ky ) dy / dt = y - ky^2 dy / dt - y = - ky^2 Let v...

Fint the modified equation when the implicit Euler method is applied to y'= f(y). If f(y)=λy, where λ is negative. what is the effect on the amplication factor? => y ' = lambda * y dy / dx = lambda * y dy / y = lambda dx ln y = lambda * x + C y = [ C / lambda ]e^( lambda * x ) This is what...

Hello, I have been searching around for a topic of math that I am not familiar with. I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direction. This has to do with Compound growth and decay when the two are combined. This occurs in trading(ie stocks,options,futures,etc.) And I am hoping I can...

For example, if your advisor specializes in gravity, but has a subfield specialty (like Horava-Lifschitz gravity) and most of their papers for the last several years are about that subspecialty, does that mean your thesis research will be about that, or could it be about any gravitational thing?

I'm currently an undergraduate student and I'm taking BS Mathematics. We're going to start our research this semester. I'm kinda interested in researching about Math and Economics so if you know any good sites for papers/articles about this field, feel free to post it here. Thanks guys! :)

I am wondering if there is such a subject as I am about to mention, I think it may be somewhere along the lines of computational fluid dynamics. Molecular/atomistic modeling of the components of a fluid to determine the flow properties of that fluid. This is a topic that would bridge the gaps...

In your opinion, what is the hardest topic in math? I don't really know many high high levels of math, maybe differential topology, or K theory, idk, what is it in your opinion? Oh, and don't say "some people think Calculus is hard" or other stuff like that, think of a high level math topic.

Hi all, I'm planning on doing a one-on-one tutorial my math department next semester. However, I don't know what topic I want to study, so I'm looking for some suggestions. Note that I'm interested in high energy physics (string theory, etc.) and theoretical condensed matter. I will be...

I am self teaching myself some of the math that will be needed for university physics. I have just finished Calculus 1 and most of 2. I have been told I should learn ordinary and partial differential equations, vector calculus and linear algebra. In what order should I learn these topics?

I am a high schooler, I have studied a fair amount of calculus probably up to about calc i level, I then skipped some stuff and did the vector calculus chapters in my calc book because it seemed interesting, I did grasp all the concepts, but I'll admit my integration techniques were not yet calc...

When you take a high school (A-Level) physics course at school, what are the first couple of topics you learn? I want to begin with the most straight forward basic stuff. I've looked around but can't seem to find a high school syllabus.

I wanted to ask from my intuition of Newton's First law that body in motion remains in motion. Assume we kick a ball on earth, we does our force of kicking stops. I mean ultimately it comes to a stop due to resistance and gravity. Now, assume it is in space with no gravity or air. When we kick...

I have seen some definition like, It is a quantity that is coming from the time translational invariance. or a quantity that should be conserved in some process. But I am not able to understand what exactly energy is? In STR mass even can convert into energy, that also make me so confused...

Hey everyone, Its been quite awhile since I've posted on here, good to be back. So I have a really simple question; what topic should I begin to study in my free time when school starts? I don't plan on spending mass amounts of time on it as I have my other classes to worry about, but...

If we are to answer multiply questions on a single topic, do the step is vital. For example question#5, do we have to get answer for question 5(a) before we are able to do question b(b). Does it mean the first one is the easiest?Thank you.

Hi people, I am new to the forum so I don't know whether I am posting this in the right topic. The things is, I am looking for examples where interesting data which can be found with day to day mundane stuff. For example: Finding the distance of a star using parallax. Parallax is something...

If you wish to skip the back story, skip to the last paragraph. The honors college at my university (Arizona State) requires undergraduates to complete a thesis if they wish to graduate from the honors college. I've been extremely excited about presenting a worthwhile thesis as a physics...
