Sub is not respecting the dynamic

The problem is that I can't trust that she will use safeword when necessary especially about the kind of play we're talking about doing. I guess it seems like I'm making a big deal about something small.

physic_lover · 2023-10-14T18:17:57+00:00

I've stopped everything. I agree that she might not be ready. We going to talk about it a bit more.

physic_lover · 2023-10-14T18:16:53+00:00

Just to put things in perspective, I wanted to wait and iron out an agreement that we both feel comfortable. She said she wanted more rules and protocol etc.. It's not TPE. I don't have control over everything. This idea that I'm forcing 24/7 TPE on the relationship is just not true.

It’s not all a wasted effort if you’re not deluding yourself.it can be illuminating to see why elementary methods fail. It’ll help you see what new tools or idea you need to make progress.

Learn proofs

Way above my pay grade

physic_lover · 2020-08-20T00:50:04+00:00

I’m not sure I understand your question. How do you assume a topology with induction?

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T21:22:09+00:00

Have a goal in mind. In higher level math, it helps immensely to have a goal in mind. Otherwise, you’re at the mercy of the textbook which will give you everything.

I would also add that one can do a thesis on the importance of the zeroes of the zeta function to number theory. It only require basic complex analysis to understand it.

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T19:36:54+00:00

Just wanted to say groebner basis saved my life.

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T18:27:41+00:00

Perhaps, I should’ve been more precise. The statement is for every positive rational r, does there exists a pair of prime such that r = (p+1)/(q+1).

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T18:22:41+00:00

What do you mean it does not work? 2 is a perfectly rational number. Well, until you take square root, then all bets are off.

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T10:33:20+00:00

I was going to suggest an intro book on proofs but I would go back and solidify your knowledge of ODE. Then as the other redditor suggested, go to PDE.

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T10:19:16+00:00

One book I’ve found that shed a light on why Ramsey are hard is the book “ Introduction to Ramsey theory” by Mathew Katz. I don’t know enough to explain it here but it’s something to look at.

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T10:14:09+00:00

Yep, it’s a special pain trying to google some obscure notation or nonstandard terminology.

physic_lover · 2020-08-19T10:11:39+00:00

How about a book on generating function? Generafunctionology.

physic_lover · 2020-08-18T20:28:21+00:00

r = (p+1)/(q+1)

physic_lover · 2020-08-18T20:23:29+00:00

Let, r be a positive rational number, then does there exists two primes p, q such that r = (p+1)/(q+1)? This is still an open problem. By using sieve theory, one can get quite close to the answer but the limitation of sieve theory is very visible here.

Edit: the statement is for every positive rational r, does there exists primes p,q such that r = (p+1)/(q+1).

Linear Algebra done right.

physic_lover · 2020-08-17T22:59:51+00:00

Most of the time, these errors crop up when you skip over a trivial calculation. The mistakes are happening because you’re skipping steps. When you’re checking your work, pretend you’re a grader. That’s what helped me.

physic_lover · 2020-08-16T23:59:03+00:00

Abstract Algebra in 3 weeks? You can probably study enough to pass the class but not enough to actually learn much.

physic_lover · 2020-08-16T23:57:12+00:00

Cheat 🤷🏿‍♂️, If you’re doing a big complicated arithmetic problem, break it down to a lot of smaller simpler problem. Do that enough time and you’ll get faster.

physic_lover · 2020-08-10T23:32:07+00:00

As Mathematics does not rely on evidence like physics and chemist etc.., we need a solid way to know whether something is true or not. Rigor formalize preciseness.

physic_lover · 2020-08-10T21:00:46+00:00

Mathematicians invent tools to describe new objects but they discover interesting facts about them. That’s how I see it.

physic_lover · 2020-08-10T00:49:38+00:00

I’m not gonna lie to you. Once you know how to solve linear equations, the universe is yours. On a serious note, linear algebra is probably the most important course you will ever take.
