  • What is the best place to sell old books online?

    I'm trying to sell some old hardbacks from the 50s and 60s. I've listed them on eBay, but is having an Amazon marketplace store more worth it (I don't want to put that much time into it). Alternatively, is another website my best option?

  • help needed with connected subsets, topology please?

    Exercise 4. Let I be an open interval in R and let f : I -> R be a differentiable function.

    (1) Prove that the set T = {(x, y) in I × I : x < y} is a connected subset of R2 with the standard

    topology.

    (2) Let g : T -> R be the function defined by

    g(x, y) =(f(x) − f(y))/(x − y)

    .

    Prove that g(T) (open) is a subset of f '(I) is a subset of g(T) (closed).

    Any help on this would be much appreciated. Thanks

  • homeomorphism between unit square and unit circle?

    r:Square -> Circle has been given as r(x,y) = (x/sqrt(x^2+y^2),y/sqrt(x^2+y^2)), the radial projection from square to circle. I've proved the trivial facts that r is a bijection between the square and the circle. How do I prove r and its inverse are continuous to show r is a homeomorphism?

  • some help with contour integration?

    A couple of questions:

    1) Calculate the integral between (+/-) infinity of log(z+i)/(z^2+1) dz taking the branch along the positive real-axis and deduce the integral between 0 and infinity of log(x^2+1)/(x^2+1)dx =(pi)*log2.

    2) Calculate the integral of ((logz)^2)/(z^2+z+1) around a keyhole contour and deduce the values of the intrgral between 0 and infinity of logx/(x^2+x+1) dx and the integral between o and infinity of dx/(x^2+x+1).

    Any help much appreciated.

  • help with some contour integrals?

    1. Using Jordan's Inequality,

    show that the integral from 0 to infinity of (x^3)*sinx/(x^4+1) dx = (pi/2)*exp(-1/sqrt(2))*cos(1/sqrt(2))

    2. Prove that the integral between (+/-) infinity of

    sin(pi(x))/(x^3-1) dx = (pi/3)(sqrt(3)*exp(-sqrt(3)*pi/2)-1)

    I know an indentation is needed in the contour but would like some more help if possible.

    Thank you in advance for helping me with these, 10 points to a good answer.

  • principal parts of some laurent expansions?

    Can anyone help with 3 Laurent Expansions for me (10 points):

    1) Find the principal part of the Laurent expansion of the function 1/(cos(z)-1)^2 in the annulus 0<|z|<pi.

    2) Find the principal part of the Laurent expansion of the function 1/(sinz)^3 in the same annulus

    3) Find the principal part of the Laurent expansion of the function 1/(z^2+4) about the point 2i.

    Can you show your working please, I know you have use the series for cos and sin for 1 and 2 and some sort of geometric progression for 3 but would appreciate the details.

    Thanks for the help.

  • Multiple integrals help needed?

    Need help with the following question:

    Using polar coordinates, evaluate the following integral:

    cos(x^2+y^2) dx dy over the region x^2+y^2< (or equal to) 9, x > (or equal to) 0.

    I know that the region is the semi-circle, centre the origin with radius 3 above the x-axis and that after evaluating the jacobian dxdy becomes rdrd(theta) but how do you integrate rcos(r^2) dr.

    Much appreciation goes to any answers.
