The outside of universe is a higher dimension which contains lots of universe?

Logic book? there is this kinda stuff? thanks

Give u a tip .

R , r are the radius of two circles , scribing the triangle. one is outside , one is inside , I dont know what those are called in English.

Thanks , I am studying the proof   , I used to do maths like Geometry , Calculus .  I havent really gotten used to  Abstract maths.

Maybe

Can I use induction , assuming S can be the intersection of n open sets , then consider n+1 ?

Oh , I think I have a better idea , since every open sets can be a intersection of a collection of countable open set. right?

Prove that every closed set in R^1 is the intersection of a countable collection of open sets.


I know that

but I don't exactly know how to do it.

I turned it into  the number divided by has 3,4,5 remainder 1 .

Wow , it's strange , that I got 420k-161 by extended Euclidean algorithm for Chinese remainder theorem.

the first number is 2 ? I think it has many answers ..

A is dense in X if for any point x in X, any neighborhood of x contains at least one point from A.
Then the set of Rational and the set of irrational are dense in R^1 ,right? So any neighborhood of x in R^1 contain both rational and irrational .


But how to prove that the set of Rational and the set of  irrational are dense in R^1 ?

#42 Re: Help Me ! » Check top » 2007-05-19 02:17:27

but I haven't learned about that , not yet . Then how should I solve that problem? Is finding an algorithm a correct way to do it?

#43 Re: Help Me ! » Check top » 2007-05-18 16:30:29

If I am trying to prove than something exist in something , Can I design an algorithm to prove?

Santa = Satan

This one , I dont think just a coincidence...lol

#48 Re: Help Me ! » Question » 2007-05-16 02:15:10

Here is the question
Show that if G is a finite group of even order , then G has an odd number of elements of order 2. Note that e is the only element of order 1.

If I regard G as 


The proof will be very easy , but I am not sure whether I can do it this way.

Yea , I got it .  b=a^-1 (ab) , when couldnt I think of that.
