We extend the fundamental theorem of linear algebra for matrix spaces to tensor spaces. Using the new relationship, we characterize the least-squares (M) solutions to a multilineax system and establish the relationship between the minimum-norm (N) leastsquares (M)solution of a multilinear system and the weighted Moore-Penrose inverse of its coefficient tensor. We also investigate a class of even-order tensors induced by matrices and obtain some interesting properties.展开更多

Sir Professor Andrew Wiles’s proof employed very advanced mathematical tools and methods that were not at all available in the known World during Fermat’s days. Given that Fermat claimed to have had the “truly marvellous” proof, this fact that the proof only came after 358 years of repeated failures by many notable mathematicians and that the proof came from mathematical tools and methods which are far ahead of Fermat’s time, has led many to doubt that Fermat actually did possess the “truly marvellous” proof which he claimed to have had. In this short reading, via elementary arithmetic methods, we demonstrate conclusively that Fermat’s Last Theorem actually yields to our efforts to prove it.展开更多

I have no objection to the probabilities specified by quantum theory, nor to the inequality itself as characterized in the formulation of Clauser, Horne, Shimony, and Holt. Designed to assess consequences of Einstein’s principle of local realism, the inequality pertains to a linear combination of four polarization products <em>on the same pair of photons</em> arising in a gedankenexperiment. My assessment displays that in this context, the summands of the relevant CHSH quantity<em> s</em>(<span style="white-space:nowrap;"><em>λ</em></span>) inhere four symmetric functional relations which have long been neglected in analytic considerations. Its expectation E[<em style="white-space:normal;">s</em><span style="white-space:normal;">(</span><em>λ</em><span style="white-space:normal;">)</span>] is not the sum of four “marginal” expectations from a joint distribution, as quantum theory explicitly avoids such a specification.

I exhibit slices of the 4-dimensional polytope of joint<em> P</em><sub>++</sub> probabilities actually motivated by quantum theory at the four stipulated angle settings, as it passes through 3-dimensional space. Bell’s inequality is satisfied everywhere within the convex hull of extreme distributions cohering with quantum theoretic specifications, even while in keeping with local realism.

When one actively embeds the restrictions into Aspect’s estimation procedure, it yields an estimate of 1.7667, although this is not and cannot be definitive. While my analysis supports the subjectivist construction of probability as clarifying issues relevant to the interpretation of quantum theory, the error resolved herein is purely mathematical. It pertains to the reconsideration of Bell violation irrespective of one’s attitude toward the meaning of probability.展开更多

Accessible to popular readership and requiring no knowledge of quantum physics at all, his exposition describes the curious behaviour of a machine that is designed to parody the empirical results of quantum experiments monitoring the spins of a pair of electrons under various conditions. The mysteries are said to unfold from contradictory results produced by a signal process that is proposed to explain them. I find that these results derive from a mathematical error of neglect, coupled with a confusion of two distinct types of experiments under consideration. One of these, a gedankenexperiment, provides the context in which the fabled defiance of Bell’s inequality is thought to emerge. The errors are corrected by the recognition of functional relations embedded within the experimental conditions that have been long unnoticed. A Monte Carlo simulation of results in accord with the actual abstemious claims of quantum theory supports probability values that Mermin decries as unwarranted. However, the distribution it suggests is not definitive, in accord with the expressed agnostic position of quantum theory regarding measurements that cannot be executed. Bounding quantum probabilities are computed for the results of the gedankenexperiment relevant to Bell’s inequality which inspired the parable. The problem is embedded in a 3 × 3 design of Stern-Gerlach magnet orientations at two observation stations. Computational resolution on the basis of Bruno de Finetti’s fundamental theorem of probability requires the evaluation of a battery of three paired linear programming problems. Though technicalities are ornate, the message is clear. There are no mysteries of quantum mechanics that derive from mistaken understandings of Bell’s inequality… for anyone.展开更多

For ...A rigidity theorem for oriented complete submanifolds with parallel mean curvature in a complete and simply connected Riemannian (n + p)-dimensional manifold N^n+p with negative sectional curvature is proved. For given positive integers n(≥ 2), p and for a constant H satisfying H 〉 1 there exists a negative number τ(n,p, H) ∈ (-1, 0) with the property that if the sectional curvature of N is pinched in [-1, τ-(n,p, H)], and if the squared length of the second fundamental form is in a certain interval, then N^n+p is isometric to the hyperbolic space H^n+P(-1). As a consequence, this submanifold M is congruent to S^n(1√H^2 - 1) or the Veronese surface in S^4(1/√H^2-1).展开更多

Two theories in the past, the population dynamics and thermodynamics of master equations, separately defined two important concepts in mathematical terms: thefitness in the former and the (non- adiabatic) entropy production in the latter. Both of them play important roles in the evolution of the cell population dynamics. The switching sustains the variations among the subpopulation growth, thus sustains continuous natural selection. As a form of Price's equation, the fitness increases with (i) natural selection through variations and (ii) a positive covariance between the per capita growth and switching, which represents a Lamarchian-like behavior. A negative covariance balances the natural selection in a fitness steady state —— "the red queen" scenario. At the same time the growth keeps the proportions of subpopulations away from the "intrinsic" switching equilibrium of individual cells, thus leads to a continuous entropy production. A covariance, between the per capita growth rate and the "chemical potential" of subpopulation, counteracts the entropy production. Analytical results are obtained for the limiting cases of growth dominating switching and vice versa.展开更多

Firstly, we investigate the volume comparison theorem of complete bounded λ-hypersurfaces with |A|≤α and get some applications of the volume comparison theorem. Secondly, we consider the relation among λ, extrinsic radius k, intrinsic diameter d, and dimension n of the complete λ-hypersurface,and we obtain some estimates for the intrinsic diameter and the extrinsic radius. At last, we get some topological properties of the bounded λ-hypersurface with some natural and general restrictions.展开更多
