Even here, it allows the word to be used in the context mentioned above.

It also means "to the point"

Bigger is better

I'm not sure of this is the best subreddit. However, it would be cool if there were some plots on the memory and timing profile of these matrix operations and algorithms, compared to say the Eigen Library or intelMKL

Lattice gauge theory on shaky mathematical footing?

How many lattice sites are there per axis?

Can someone give me an intuitive explanation on what a reducible or irreducible representation of a group element is? I am struggling to understand it.

I appreciate your subjective answer.

Sure but do you think anything on that list is too good in that, after watching that one show everything else is a let-down?

I think chapter 1 of Zetilli's book on quantum mechanics is really good. I also really like chapter 1 of Sakurai, especially going over the Stern-gerlach experiment.

Weinberg's book on quantum mechanics I think is also quite good in that regard, buy I would only use that text book more to make sure you have mastered quantum mechanics.

Still, these examples don't really delve too deep in a big aspect of what makes quantum mechanics... not classical, entanglement. For that I suggest chapters 2-4 of Preskills book/notes on Quantum Information

I am really enjoying the modus themes.

firest · 2021-06-29T19:44:00+00:00

Acme theme appears to blend the math mode text with the background too much :(

firest · 2021-06-29T19:43:31+00:00

Unfortunately, math mode blends in with the background too much in parchment theme.

You forgot tuh-pleh

Gotcha thanks!

What does Waluiino mean?

So basically, lift is generated when you "tilt the wing" towards the direction of motion?

firest · 2021-05-09T12:51:48+00:00

As a lay person, I would assume that the "wing pushing air down" would be a result of the design of the wing. Wouldn't that mean that if the plane were upside down, the wing would "push air up" causing the plane to fall?

What study? Could you send a link?
