linear independence of $\sin(k \pi / m)$

I have tried searching the literature for a result like the following, but have not found anything. For a positive integer $m$, is it known that $$\{ \sin (k \pi / m): 1 \leq k \leq m/2, (k,m)=1 \}$$ ...

What is the shatter coefficient / VC - dimension of some hypothesis set?

Let $H:=\{h:\mathbb{N}_0^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}| h(x_1,\cdots,x_n) = \mathbb{1}_0(\sum_{i\in I}{x_i}-\sum_{j \notin I}{x_j}) \text{ for some } I \subset \{1,\cdots,n\}\}$ where $\mathbb{1}$ is the ...

Representation Theorem for levy process

The answer given by The Bridge, Martingale representation theorem for Levy processes was useful for me. Thank you. But I have a question, can this theorem be given for $X_t$ being not just $R^n$ ...

Constructible sheaves on general stratified spaces

I am not an expert in the field, so my question might be rather standard. Let $X$ be a compact metric space. Assume that $X=\cup_{i=1}^NS_i$ is a finite disjoint union of locally closed topological ...

Interpolation inequality for fractional Sobolev spaces

In Theorem 5.2 of the book Robert A. Adams and John J. F. Fournier, MR 2424078 Sobolev spaces, ISBN: 0-12-044143-8. is stated that, for any integers $0 \leq j \leq m$ and $u \in W^{m,p}(\Omega)$ (...

Reference - Generalized Hodge conjecture for triangulated motives

GHC for triangulated motives: The Hodge conjecture holds and an object $\rm M \in Dmg$ is effective if and only if its Hodge realization is effective. I would like to know some references on GHC ...

Splitting the Tits algebras of a anisotropic group

Assume we are given an anisotropic algebraic group $G$ over a field $k$, having non trivial Tits algebras (i am interested in the $E_7$ adjoint cases). Question: Is it possible that there exists a ...

approaches to Apollonius circle problems

I've been looking for solutions to finding the set of circles tangent to two other circles. one circle can be inverted to a line, but two circles can be mapped to a line and a circle or equivalently ...

An upper bound for the number of prime numbers in non-linear progressions

Let $f(x)$ be a non-linear polynomial over $\mathbb{Z}$. Consider the following sum $\pi_f(x):= \#\{y: y< x \text{ and } f(y) \text{ is prime} \}$. Can we get an upper bound for $\pi_f(x)$?

Is a C*-algebra with an isomorphic predual a von Neumann algebra?

It is well-known that a C*-algebra $A$ is a von Neumann algebra if and only if it has an isometric predual, that is, if and only if there exists a Banach space $X$ such that $A$ is isometrically ...

Is there a schema category for hyperstructures?

I am completely fascinated by Niels Baas' notion of hyperstructures, chiefly because I can see how such gadgets could be used in modeling both biological and social systems, or other evolutionary ...

Does every smooth manifold admit a metric with bounded geometry and uniform growth?

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold, $g_M$ a Riemannian metric, and consider for $x\in M$ the volume growth function, $gr_x$ that maps $r>0$ to the volume $vol_{g_M}(B(x,r))$. My interest is to see ...
Reasons for $\alpha>-\frac{1}{2}$ constraint in texts regarding Gegenbauer polynomials $C^{(\alpha)}_k(x)$
In texts regarding the Gegenbauer polynomials $C^{(\alpha)}_k(x)$, I often see the constraint $\alpha>-\frac{1}{2}$ alongside definitions and identities. I understand that the orthogonality ...
