Aug 30, 2010 at 15:28 comment added Deane Yang I agree with Pietro. For one thing, the overly abstract and contrived formulation makes it sound more like a homework problem than something that arose in research.
Aug 30, 2010 at 14:46 comment added José Figueroa-O'Farrill Pietro: sorry for assuming you had downvoted -- your comment appeared almost simultaneously with the downvotes. I would tend to give the benefit of the doubt in these cases, but perhaps you are right. I have not used the wiki reference desk, but perhaps MU might be a good site for that question.
Aug 30, 2010 at 14:41 comment added Pietro Majer Hi José, I agree with you in principle, though my feeling in writing the comment was that this particular question could really have more chance of getting an answer in other sites devoted to elementary maths (no answer had been posted while I was wirting the comment). Btw, I didn't vote down the question, nor your answer.
Aug 30, 2010 at 14:20 comment added José Figueroa-O'Farrill Pietro: I think that you have been too quick at downvoting this question and its answers. I can imagine research mathematicians in some areas wanting a quick answer on something elementary in a different area. Maybe this ought to be dicussed in meta...
Aug 30, 2010 at 14:16 comment added Pietro Majer It seems this is not the right place for your question, as this site is mainly devoted to research matter. Try other sites as en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Mathematics or other quoted in the FAQ section, where you may have more chances.
