| | There are a number of applications of logic to ordinary mathematics, with the most coming from (I believe) model theory. One of the easiest and most striking that I know is called Ax's Theorem. Ax's Theorem: For all polynomial functions $latex f\colon \mathbb{C}^n\to \mathbb{C}^n$, if $latex f$ is injective, then $latex f$ is surjective. Very...

| | Last time, we showed how one can use symmetric tensors to conveniently represent homogeneous polynomials and Taylor series. Today, I am going to talk about how to actually implement a generic homogeneous polynomial/symmetric tensor class in C++. The goal of this implementation (for the moment) is not efficiency, but rather generality and correctness. If there...

| | In our last primer we looked at a number of interesting examples of metric spaces, that is, spaces in which we can compute distance in a reasonable way. Our goal for this post is to relax this assumption. That is, we want to study the geometric structure of space without the ability to define distance. That is not to say that some notion of distance necessarily exists under the surface somewhere, but rather that we include a whole new class of spaces for which no notion of distance makes sense.
