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.

    A Harmonic Function is Zero on an open portion of the boundary, help

    A harmonic function in a region is zero on an open portion of the boundary, and its normal derivative is also zero on the same part, and it is continuously differentiable on the boundary. I have to show that the function is zero everywhere, but I have no idea how. I have tried this for hours...

    A zero knowledge system for voting?

    My memory on this is a bit foggy, but a couple of years ago one my math professors had a digression about a system of voting where no one would be able to know what anyone else voted. It involved the graph of a polynomial, and the kicker was that this system couldn't be implemented in society...

    Understanding Countable Sets in Measure Zero Definition

    Homework Statement While studying a book "analysis on manifolds" by munkres, I see a definition of measure zero. That is, Let A be a subset of R^{n}. We say A has measure zero in R^{n} if for every ε>0, there is a covering Q_{1},Q_{2},... of A by countably many rectangles...

    Energy of photon never becomes zero

    as we know that light consist packets of energy called photons And mass of a body when moving with the speed of light increases so, the mass of photon increases when it moves with light and when mass increases its energy is also increasing it means that when light travels it never stops and...

    Individual Protons Are Zero Mass Particles. Is Zero Mass Defined By This?

    Individual Photons Are Zero Mass Particles. Is Zero Mass Defined By This? Is zero mass as we know declaired because photons are theorisized to be true "weightless" and massless, or could it be a case that we do not have sensitive enough instrements and limited in our detection? Or on the other...

    Eigenvector for A = [0 0; 1 -3] Not Working

    A = [0 0] [1 -3] (2 x 2 matrix, bad formatting) I need to find the eigenvector for lambda1 and lambda2. I figured out lambda1 = 0 and lambda2 = -3. For lambda1 the eigenvector works fine, but for lambda2 I get it as v = (0,0), which is not possible. Any ideas?
