Vector algebra

Let $\mathbf{a} , \mathbf{b}, \mathbf{c}$ be three non coplanar vector. If $\displaystyle{\mathbf{a}' = \frac{\mathbf{b} \times \mathbf{c}}{\left [ \mathbf{a,b, c} \right ]} \; , \; \mathbf{b}' = \frac{\mathbf{c} \times \mathbf{a}}{\left [ \mathbf{a,b, c} \right ]} \; , \; \mathbf{c}' = \frac ...

An infinite product

Let $\mathcal{F}_n$ denote the $n$ -th Fibonacci number and $\mathcal{L}_n$ the $n$ – th Lucas. Prove that


$$\prod_{n=1}^{\infty} \left ( 1 + \frac{1}{\mathcal{F}_{2^n +1} \mathcal{L}_{2^n+1}} \right ) = \frac{3}{\varphi^2}$$

Re: Contour integral

It follows from Taylor's theorem that $f(z)=\sum \limits_{n=0}^{\infty} c_n z^n$ and that the convergence is uniform. Thus,

\begin{align*} \frac{1}{2\pi i }\oint \limits_{|z|=1} \frac{\overline{f(z)}}{z-\alpha} \,\mathrm{d}z &=\frac{1}{2\pi i }\oint \limits_{|z|=1} \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac ...

Re: Rank of product of matrices

It holds that

$${\rm nul} (T_1 T_2) \leq {\rm nul} (T_1) + {\rm nul} (T_2)$$

where $T_1, \; T_2$ are the corresponding linear transformations.

Proof: The proof of the lemma is based on the rank - nullity theorem.


Based upon the above lemma we have that

\begin{align*}
{\rm rank} \left ( T_1 ...

Re: On permutation

The sum of $D(\sigma)$ over the even permutations minus the one over the odd permutations is the determinant of the matrix $A$ with entries $a_{i,j}=\vert i-j\vert$ and this determinant is known to be

$$\det A = (-1)^{n-1} (n-1) 2^{n-2}$$
