| | The function $latex f(x) = x \log x$ occurs in various places across math/statistics/machine learning (e.g. in the definition of entropy), and I thought I'd put a list of properties of the function here that I've found useful. Here is a plot of the function: $latex f$ is defined on $latex (0, \infty)$. The only...

| | In this post I would like to prove the following identity, motivated by this tweet. $latex \displaystyle n! \prod_{k=0}^n \frac{1}{x+k} = \frac{1}{x\binom{x+n}{n}} = \sum_{k=0}^n \frac{(-1)^k \binom{n}{k}}{x+k}$ The first of these equalities is straightforward by the definition of binomial coefficients. To prove the second, we make use of partial fractions. We write the expansion $latex \displaystyle...

| | Suppose you want to have a graph $latex G = (V,E)$ with chromatic number $latex \chi(G)$ equaling some value $latex k$, such that $latex G$ is minimal with this property. So you end up with a $latex k$-(vertex-)critical graph. It is easy to construct critical graphs by starting with some easy-to-verify example like $latex C_5$...
