    'Twisted duality' for Clifford Algebras

    Full text link
    Viewing the complex Clifford algebra C(V)C(V) of a real inner product space VV as a superalgebra, we offer several proofs of the fact that if WW is a subspace of the complexification of VV then the supercommutant of the Clifford algebra C(W)C(W) is precisely the Clifford algebra C(W⊥)C(W^{\perp}).Comment: 8 page

    A tangential approach to trigonometry

    Full text link
    We construct the complex tangent as a meromorphic function in the plane, using an approach developed by Weierstrass in his characterization of analytic functions that satisfy algebraic addition theorems

    Creator-annihilator domains and the number operator

    Full text link
    We show that for the bosonic Fock representation in infinite dimensions, the maximal common domain of all creators and annihilators properly contains the domain of the square-root of the number operator.Comment: 7 pages, no figure

    The triple-zero Painlev\'e I transcendent

    Full text link
    We offer elementary proofs for fundamental properties of the unique triple-zero solution to the first Painlev\'e equation

    Distributive Quotients

    Full text link
    We note that each lattice LL has a unique largest distributive quotient, of which every distributive quotient of LL is itself a quotient.Comment: 3 page

    Remarks on trigonometric functions after Eisenstein

    Full text link
    We modify the Whittaker-Watson account of the Eisenstein approach to the trigonometric functions, basing these functions independently on the Eisenstein function ε2\varepsilon_2

    L1\mathbf L^1 completeness for Fourier series

    Full text link
    We note that the Fubini theorem may be used to prove that an L1L^1 function is determined by its Fourier coefficients

    Implicational Completeness

    Full text link
    We present a proof of completeness for the implicational propositional calculus, based on a variant of the Lindenbaum procedure

    Conservative inclusion of N\"orlund methods

    Full text link
    We offer practical necessary and sufficient conditions in order that every sequence convergent relative to the N\"orlund summation method (N,p)(N, p) be convergent relative to the N\"orlund summation method (N,q)(N, q) without the requirement that limits be preserved

    Automorphisms of Quadratic Liouville Structures

    Full text link
    We examine the diffeomorphisms of a symplectic vector space that preserve a chosen symplectic potential. Our examination yields an explicit description of these diffeomorphisms when the chosen potential differs from the canonical potential by the differential of a homogeneous quadratic in one of three broad classes.Comment: 8 page
