| | | | | The numbers are usually studied in layers of increasing subtlety and intricacy. We start with the natural, or counting, numbers $latex {\mathbb{N} = \{ 1, 2, 3, \dots \}}&fg=000000$. Then come the whole numbers or integers, $latex {\mathbb{Z} = \{ \dots, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, \dots \}}&fg=000000$. All the ratios of these (avoiding division... | |

| | | | | This post is mainly devoted to a probabilistic proof of a famous theorem due to Schoenberg on radial positive definite functions. Let us begin with a general notion: we say that \( {K:\mathbb{R}^d\times\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}} \) is a positive definite kernel when \[ \forall n\geq1, \forall x_1,\ldots,x_n\in\mathbb{R}^d, \forall c\in\mathbb{C}^n, \quad\sum_{i=1}^n\sum_{j=1}^nc_iK(x_i,x_j)\bar{c}_j\geq0. \] When \( {K} \) is symmetric, i.e. \( {K(x,y)=K(y,x)} \) for... | |

| | | | | The Classification of Finite Simple Groups proves in particular that the collection of orders of finite simple groups has asymptotic density 0. What can we prove if we're not willing to work that hard? | |

| | | The function $latex f(x) = x \log x$ occurs in various places across math/statistics/machine learning (e.g. in the definition of entropy), and I thought I'd put a list of properties of the function here that I've found useful. Here is a plot of the function: $latex f$ is defined on $latex (0, \infty)$. The only... | ||
