| | | | | Equations of the form $latex x^3 = y^2 + k$ are called Mordell equations. In this post we're going to prove that the equation $latex x^3 = y^2 -7$ has no integer solutions, using (with one exception) nothing more complicated than congruences. Theorem: There are no integer solutions to the equation $latex x^3 = y^2... | |

| | | | | Here's a fun thing: if you want to generate a random finite $latex T_0$ space, instead select a random subset from $latex \mathbb{S}^n$, the $latex n$-fold power of the Sierpinski space $latex \mathbb{S}$, since every $latex T_0$ space embeds into some (arbitrary) product of copies of the Sierpinski space. (Recall that $latex \mathbb{S}$ has underlying... | |

| | | | | 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... | |
