### Are hyperreal numbers isomorphic to formal power series?

I wonder whether hyperreal numbers isomorphic with formal Laurent series? It seems that any hyperreal number can be represented in the form of Laurent series over $\omega$. For instance, ...

### A question on the twistor space of a manifold

Let $M$ be either (a) self-dual conformal 4-manifold, or (b) hypercomplex $4n$-manifold. In either case one can construct the twistor space $Z$ (in the case (b) $Z=\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^1\times M$ as a ...

### What is a one-parameter Newton's method?

The Newton's method that I know is defined as follows: $$x_{n+1}=x_n-\frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)}$$ However, I've recently encountered a paper that talks about a one-parameter family of Newton's method ...

### Isomorphic subcategories of directed graphs and presets

For the purposes of this post, a digraph (directed graph) has neither loops nor multiple parallel edges, and a preset is an ordered pair consisting of a set $S$ and a preorder (viz., a reflexive and ...

### optimal strategies for 2-player zero-sum games of perfect information

I asked essentially this on math.SE slightly more than 3 days ago, and it hasn't received any answer there. Do finite-state 2-player zero-sum games of perfect information with only win-draw-loss ...

### Conversion between condtional expection conditioned on $\sigma$-algebra and on r.v

Let $(\Omega, \mathcal F, P)$ be a probability space, and let $\mathcal G \subseteq \mathcal F$ be a sub-$\sigma$-algebra of $\mathcal F$ and $X : \Omega \to \mathbb R$ a random variable. Then the ...
Given an integer $k$ suppose one wants the group to be polynomial in size in $k$ but the expansion to be exponential in size in $k$. I am not sure I am asking a precise question. Kindly add in ...
