Homework Statement



\int^1_0 \int^1_y sin(x^2) dx dy

The Attempt at a Solution



This equation cannot be integrated nicely, so I tried to reverse the order of integration:

\int^1_0 \int^1_x sin(x^2) dy dx

However this only helps for the first step, since when we intregrate by y, we get:

\int^1_0 sin(x^2)-xsin(x^2) dx

I'm stuck... again! Any ideas?

Your limits in the new double integral is incorrect. If in doubt, look at the original double integral and draw a picture of the region enclosed by the limits. Then try to express the limits of the double integral in the reversed order of the same region.
 
Alright so perhaps the bounds are then: \int^1_0 \int^x_0

In which case, my integral simplifies to:

\int^1_0 x sin(x^2)

Which becomes:

-1/2 cos (x^2) | 1_0

This make sense?
 
Yep, you got it.
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
