I wish to show that $\sum_{k=1}^{\infty} kx^{k-1}$ converges uniformly on $[a,b]$ for any $-1<a<b<1$.Clearly this series is the derivative of the geometric series , so my thought is to use the...

$M \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ is a rotation of set $\{ x^2 + z^2 = 4x-3, 1

$M \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ is a surface created by rotation of set$\{ x^2 + z^2 = 4x-3, \ 1<x<2, \ -1<z<1 \}$ by $\pi$ around axis OZ.Find $\int_M \max(x,y,z) d \lambda_2$.I know that $x^2 +...

Proving the Lp norm is a norm.

I want to prove the $L_p$ norm on continuous functions is in fact a norm. I have proven definitiveness and homogeneity but am struggling with the triangle inequality. I am using the fact that if the...

If $f \in C^2((a, b)) \cap C^1([a, b])$, then $f$ is convex on $[a, b]$ if...

I'm trying to solve one of the questions from An Introduction to Functional Analysis by James C. Robinson:Show that if $f : [a, b] \to \mathbb{R}$ is $C^2$ on $(a, b)$ and $f$ is $C^1$ on $[a, b]$,...

Weierstrass function is a Hölder function

The Weierstrass function is an example of a real-valued function that is continuous everywhere but differentiable nowhere. The function was firstly described in 1872. Its original definition is as...

Papa Rudin Theorem $7.15$.

There is the definition of $(D\mu)(x)$:There is the theorem:If $\mu$ is a Borel measure on $R^k$ and $\mu \ \bot \ m$, then $$(D\mu)(x) = \infty \ a.e. [\mu]. $$ (Denote this equality by $(1)$.)There...

Minimum of $\frac{x^3}{x-6}$ for $x>6$ without using derivative? [closed]

Edit with the hope of saving this post from closure (25/April)When looking for the minimum of a function, calculus is the default choice (with good reason), but it is a relatively new idea in...

Lebesgue decomposition of increasing function on an unbounded interval?

The Lebesgue decomposition theorem for functions of bounded variation states: If $f : I \to \mathbb{R}$ is a right-continuous function of bounded variation on an interval $I$ then $f$ has a...

A question on proving an inequality involving a sequence of real numbers

Let $a_n$ be a sequence of real numbers such that $1=a_1 \le a_2 \le a_3 \le \cdots \le a_n.$Additionally, we have that $a_{i+1}-a_i \le \sqrt{a_i},$ for all $1 \le i <n.$Then prove that...

Bound of derivatives of test function

Let $f$ be a smooth function of compact support on $\mathbb R$.Let$$a_n=\sup_{x\in\mathbb R}|f^{(n)}(x)|.$$How does the sequence $a_n$ grow as $n\to\infty$? Is it bounded by $c^n$ for some $c>0$?

Evaluating a rational function integral in a quick way

In an recent test I was asked to evaluate the integral$$ \int_0^1 \frac{\sqrt[3]{x^2(1-x)}}{(1+x)^3} \text{d}x$$in 8 minutes, but I didn't have a clue what to do with it.After the test, I tried the...

Is it possible to find a closed form for $x! (a-x)!$?

I wonder if there is a closed form for $x! (a-x)!$? or lets focus on $\Gamma(x) \Gamma(a-x)$ instead of the factorial.$$B(x,y)= \frac{\Gamma(x)\Gamma(y)}{\Gamma(x+y)}$$so $\Gamma(x) \Gamma(a-x)=...

A Generalisation of Holomorphness

A holomorphic function is a function for which there exists a derivation in $\Bbb{C}$. If you consider it as a real function $\Bbb{R}^2\to\Bbb{R}^2$, its jacobian is a scaled rotation matrix.In this...
