  1. Uncountable vs Countable Infinity - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    My friend and I were discussing infinity and stuff about it and ran into some disagreements regarding countable and uncountable infinity. As far as I understand, the list of all natural numbers is

  2. Basis for infinite dimensional vector space definition

    Feb 4, 2023 · In some of these infinite-dimensional vector spaces, when they're normed, there may be Schauder Bases , where we have infinite sums, which require a notion of convergence.

  3. I have learned that 1/0 is infinity, why isn't it minus infinity?

    An infinite number? Kind of, because I can keep going around infinitely. However, I never actually give away that sweet. This is why people say that 1 / 0 "tends to" infinity - we can't really use infinity as a …

  4. Can a set be infinite and bounded? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 7, 2014 · 'every infinite and bounded part of $\mathbb {R^n}$ admit at least one accumulation point' because for me a set is either bounded so finite or infinite so unbounded. I don't really understand …

  5. probability - How to solve dice problem using infinite series and ...

    Nov 17, 2024 · How to solve dice problem using infinite series and combinations? Ask Question Asked 1 year, 2 months ago Modified 1 year, 2 months ago

  6. calculus - Infinite limits - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Obviously it depends on the definition of "exists". Some authors explicitly work over the extended real line with ±∞ ± ∞ adjoined, so that such infinite limits do explicitly "exist" as first-class values. But …

  7. linear algebra - Proof that two bases of a vector space have the same ...

    16 Once you have the necessary facts about infinite sets, the argument is very much like that used in the finite-dimensional case.

  8. abstract algebra - Examples of infinite groups such that all their ...

    Nov 28, 2018 · I am in need of examples of infinite groups such that all their respective elements are of finite order.

  9. Why does an infinite limit not exist? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    The term "infinite limit" is actually an oxymoron, like "jumbo shrimp" or "unbiased opinion". True limits are finite. However, it is okay to write down "lim f (x) = infinity" or "lim g (x) = -infinity", if the given …

  10. How was Zeno's paradox solved using the limits of infinite series?

    +1 that's a great answer. Especially for the last point: I agree that Zeno's paradox is basically an example of how there can be infinitely many intervals in a finite period of time. I didn't know that there …
