| | The Riemann zeta function $latex \zeta(s)$ can be expressed as $latex \zeta(s) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n^s}$, for complex numbers s whose real part is greater than 1. By analytic continuation, $latex \zeta(s)$ can be extended to all complex numbers except where $latex s = 1$. The power sum $latex S_a(M)$ is given by $latex S_a(M) =...

| | 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...

| | The ``probabilistic method'' is the art of applying probabilistic thinking to non-probabilistic problems. Applications of the probabilistic method often feel like magic. Here is my favorite example: Theorem (Erdös, 1965). Call a set $latex {X}&fg=000000$ sum-free if for all $latex {a, b \in X}&fg=000000$, we have $latex {a + b \not\in X}&fg=000000$. For any finite...
