| | In this section, we consider a diffusion operator $latex L=\sum_{i,j=1}^n \sigma_{ij} (x) \frac{\partial^2}{ \partial x_i \partial x_j} +\sum_{i=1}^n b_i (x)\frac{\partial}{\partial x_i}, $ where $latex b_i$ and $latex \sigma_{ij}$ are continuous functions on $latex \mathbb{R}^n$ and for every $latex x \in \mathbb{R}^n$, the matrix $latex (\sigma_{ij}(x))_{1\le i,j\le n}$ is a symmetric and non negative matrix.

| We continue our exploration of what numbers are, and where mathematicians keep finding weird ones. In the first three parts we extended the natural numbers in two ways: algebraically and analytically. Those approaches gave overlapping but distinct sets of numbers. This week we combine them to get the complex numbers, and see some hints of why the complex numbers are so useful-and so frustrating.
