### Practical Way to Detect a Markov Chain is Regular Given the Transition Matrix [migrated]

I understand that a Markov Chain is reducible if, given its transition matrix $P$, there exists $n$ such that every element of $P^n$ is greater than 0. However, I am wondering that if there is an ...

### Homological criterion for $A(B \cap C) = AB \cap AC$?

Is there a homological criterion for the condition $A(B \cap C) = AB \cap AC$ for ideals in a ring $R$? I mean a statement such as "the given equation holds if and only if (some $\operatorname{Tor}$, ...

### When is $X \rightarrow \text{Spec}(C(X))$ a homeomorphism?

Let $X$ be compact Hausdorff topological space. Consider the ring $C(X)$ of continuous functions $X \rightarrow \mathbb C$ (we do not consider the C* algebra structure, just consider $C(X)$ as a ring) ...

### Backpropagation KL-divergence for training “one level neural network” [on hold]

Hi I hope that some one could help me. I have a L matrix (25x1000) (I have 10000 works each work is represent by 25 bits) I map each word to one of 5 classes {vary negative,negative, ...

### Strict partition of size n [on hold]

I want to know how to calculate how many strict partitions of X are with size n. For example there are 22 partitions of number 8, and there are 6 strict partitions of 8 (partitions with distinct ...

### Analytic formula to evaluate the exact value of solid angle subtended by an ellipse at any arbitrary point lying on the vertical axis [on hold]

Question: How to evaluate the exact value of solid angle subtended by an ellipse (or elliptical plane) at any arbitrary point lying on the vertical axis passing through the center. Standard equation ...

### Relating overlapping simplicial complexes

Let $X$ be a simplicial complex and let $A,B\subset X$ be subcomplexes such that $C=A\cap B$ is a non-empty simplicial complex. Finally, let $C_{\cdot}(X)$, $C_{\cdot}(A)$, $C_{\cdot}(B)$, ...

### Is there a formula for the intersection of projectivized lines inside a projectivized vector bundle?

Let $E\rightarrow D$ be a complex rank two vector bundle over a compact complex one dimensional manifold $D$. Let $L_1, L_2 \subset E$ be rank one subbundles of E (i.e. line bundles). Let  n_1:= ...

### Integral geometry and curvature of surfaces

I'll stick to 2-surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ for simplicity. Higher dimensions generalizations welcome. In classical integral geometry, we may obtain up to a scaling factor, for example, the surface ...
Characterize all positive integers x, y, and z such that $\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{z}$. For example, $\frac{1}{x+1} + \frac{1}{x(x+1)} = \frac{1}{x}$
Two simplicial maps $f: K^{(n)}\to L$, $g: K\to L$ are called contiguous if for every simplex $\tau\in K^{(n)}$ and it carrier $\sigma$ we have that $f(\tau)\cup g(\sigma)$ is a simplex in $L$. It ...
