| | If $latex Y$ is a $latex \sigma(X)$-measurable random variable then there exists a Borel-measurable function $latex f \colon \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that $latex Y = f(X)$. The standard proof of this fact leaves several questions unanswered. This note explains what goes wrong when attempting a "direct" proof. It also explains how the standard proof...

| | [AI summary] The text discusses the representation of functions as vectors and their applications in various domains such as signal processing, geometry, and physics. It explains how functions can be treated as vectors in a vector space, leading to the concept of eigenfunctions and eigenvalues, which are crucial for understanding and manipulating signals and geometries. The text also covers different types of Laplacians, including the standard Laplacian, higher-dimensional Laplacians, and the Laplace-Beltrami operator, and their applications in fields like image compression, computer graphics, and quantum mechanics. The discussion includes spherical harmonics, which are used in representing functions on spheres, and their applications in game engines and glo...

| | In the early 1930s, Pascual Jordan attempted to formalise the algebraic properties of Hermitian matrices. In particular: Hermitian matrices form a real vector space: we can add and subtract Hermitian matrices, and multiply them by real scalars. That is to say, if $latex \lambda, \mu \in \mathbb{R}$ and $latex A, B$ are Hermitian matrices, then...
