### when can I say that $UV^T$ is a permutation matrix? [on hold]

suppose we have two p.s.d matrices A and B: so we can diagonalize them like this: A= $UΛU^T$ and $B=VΣV^T$ 1: on what condition for $A$ and $B$ I can say that $UV^T$ is a permutation matrix? 2: how ...

### Pre-Order induced by continuous functions

I'm an newbie in category theory, but I want use it to solve a pre-order question I encountered in my research: Let $X$ be a convex&compact subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$. $f,g: X \rightarrow [0,1]$ ...

### Why the definition of continuity is not reversed? [closed]

I am wondering why continuity is not defined in the reverse order. Take the definition of continuity in topology for example, its definition is defined as: mapping of a topological space $(X, T_X)$ ...

### What is the number of equitriangulations of the n-cube?

I wonder if this question has been considered before and if anything is known. My search attempts have failed so far. Let's consider the n-dimesnional cube, $[0,1]^n$, and let's call a simplex with ...

### The definition of $W_0^{1,\infty}$

I know how to define $W_0^{1,p}(\Omega)$, $\Omega\subset R^N$ open bounded smooth boundary, for any $1\leq p<\infty$. However, for definition of $W_0^{1,\infty}(\Omega)$, I always confused. ...
