1 AnswerMathematics10 years agoShow that the sequence of functions {x_n(t)=t^n} 0<=t<=0 satisfies all the hypothesis of the Ascoli Arzela Thm?
except the fact that the sequence is equicontinuous. Show that the conclusion of the Ascoli-Arzela theorem for this sequence does not hold.
basically we need to show that this sequence is bounded and doesn't have a uniformly convergent subsequence since it is not equicontinuous but is bounded.
the theorem can be seen at the link

1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoInterpret the statement "most numbers are not squares" by analyzing the square counting function?
square counting function S(x):= the number of squares less than or equal to x.
State and prove an analogue to the Prime Number Theorem: when x is large the number of primes less than x is approximately equal to x/ln(x) In other words
lim as x-->infinity of pi(x)/(x/ln(x))=1
2 AnswersMathematics1 decade agoQuestions on Euler's phi function.?
1. Find all solutions of the equation phi(m) = 100. Be sure to explain your work. (Hint:
Part of the exercise below may be helpful.)
if m=101 and it is prime then phi(101)=100 also m=202 phi(202)= phi(101)*phi(2)=100*1=100
i dont think there are other numbers. but how would i explain this.
2.Show that if m > 2, then phi (m) is even. Do you think the equation phi (m) = n has a
solution for every positive even integer n? Support your claim. How do u prove this?
