Zero Definition and 1000 Threads

Gonzalo Raúl Barrios Castro (born April 17, 1995), known by his gamertag ZeRo, is a Chilean former professional Super Smash Bros. player and streamer. He was considered the best Super Smash Bros. for Wii U player in the world throughout his career, with a record-breaking 56 consecutive tournament wins in the game from November 2014 to October 2015, including high-profile tournaments such as EVO 2015 and The Big House 5. Prior to the release of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, he was a top ranked Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Project M player. His best known characters are Diddy Kong in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, Pit in Project M, Meta Knight in Brawl, and Fox in Melee. He is the only player to have earned more than US$100,000 playing Super Smash Bros. for Wii U competitively.
Barrios retired from professional competition in July 2020 following allegations of sexting two minors in 2014, which also led to Barrios' sponsors cutting ties with him. Barrios later publicly admitted to the allegations.

    Taking the zero entry of the following

    Hello! Given: g_{ρσ} = g_{μ\nu}\Lambda^{μ}_{ρ}\Lambda^{\nu}_{σ} equation (1) It was then mentioned to take the 00 entry of equation (1): So, it went like 1= \Lambda^{ρ}_{0}g_{ρσ}\Lambda^{σ}_{0} equation (2) then equation (2) was set equal to (\Lambda^{0}_{0})^{2} -...

    Why the net field inside a conductor is zero?

    I do not really understand the big picture of gauss law. For what I know a conductor is a material where electrons can move freely, but I am reading my book and they show pictures where the protons are all right below the surface. My other question would be how can you describe the inside of a...

    Is Zero the Ideal Outcome? Exploring its Value on a Number Line

    Just something I've been chewing on. Let's create a number line: [-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3] In the number line, the values approach zero in the negative spectrum and then ascend from the positive spectrum. Yet, zero is consider the medium. Some argue that zero's purpose as a placeholder gives it no...

    Exponentiation with zero base, complex exponent?

    Is there a good general definition of 0^z, where z may be complex? The cases where z is real (and positive, negative, or zero) are straightforward, but what if z isn't real? Are there arbitrary branch cuts involved, or is there some universal definition?

    Is the Zero Vector in the Linear Subspace H?

    Lets say H = [3a+b, 4, a-5b] where a and b are any scalars. This not a vector space because Zero vector is not in H. I don't get what it means by zero vector is not in H? Can't you just multiply the vectors by zero and get a zero vector? I am confused.

    Zero Divided By Some Integer n

    I tried to prove this claim, as I require it to finish one of my proofs. By definition, if a,b are integers, with a \ne 0, we say that a divides b if there exists an integer c such that b = ca. So, n divides 0 means that there exists some integer c such that n = c*0 = 0. But this would...

    Can Gas Maintain Its State at Near Zero Kelvin Temperatures?

    Consider an adiabatic expansion of an ideal gas that work is done against friction or a piston.
