| | I recently came across this theorem on John Cook's blog that I wanted to keep for myself for future reference: Theorem. Let $latex f$ be a function so that $latex f^{(n+1)}$ is continuous on $latex [a,b]$ and satisfies $latex |f^{(n+1)}(x)| \leq M$. Let $latex p$ be a polynomial of degree $latex \leq n$ that interpolates...

| | It's fairly well-known, to those who know it, that $latex \displaystyle \left(\sum_{k=1}^n k \right)^2 = \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{4} = \sum_{k=1}^n k^3 $. In other words, the square of the sum of the first n positive integers equals the sum of the cubes of the first n positive integers. It's probably less well-known that a similar relationship holds...

| I will give a proof of the measurable section theorem, also known as measurable selection. Given a complete probability space $latex {(\Omega,\mathcal F,{\mathbb P})}&fg=000000$, we denote the projection from $latex {\Omega\times{\mathbb R}}&fg=000000$ by $latex \displaystyle \setlength\arraycolsep{2pt} \begin{array}{rl} &\displaystyle\pi_\Omega\colon \Omega\times{\mathbb R}\rightarrow\Omega,\smallskip\\ &\displaystyle\pi_\Omega(\omega,t)=\omega. \end{array} &fg=000000$ By definition, if $latex {S\subseteq\Omega\times{\mathbb R}}&fg=000000$ then, for every $latex {\omega\in\pi_\Omega(S)}&fg=000000$, there...
