Cox's theorem

Cox's theorem, named after the physicist Richard Threlkeld Cox, is a derivation of the laws of probability theory from a certain set of postulates. This derivation justifies the so-called "logical" interpretation of probability, as the laws of probability derived by Cox's theorem are applicable to any proposition. Logical (also known as objective Bayesian) probability is a type of Bayesian probability. Other forms of Bayesianism, such as the subjective interpretation, are given other justifications.

A Converse to a Theorem of Gross-Zaqier-Kolyvagin - Christopher Skinner

Christopher Skinner Princeton University; Member, School of Mathematics April 4, 2013 The theorem of the title is that if the L-function L(E,s) of an elliptic curve E over the rationals vanishes to order r=0 or 1 at s=1 then the rank of the group of rational rational points of E equals r a

Cayley-Hamilton Theorem: General Case

Matrix Theory: We state and prove the Cayley-Hamilton Theorem over a general field F. That is, we show each square matrix with entries in F satisfies its characteristic polynomial. We consider the special cases of diagonal and companion matrices before giving the proof.

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 10.8 --- A weak form of Freiman's theorem

In this short video I explain how the proof of Freiman's theorem for subsets of Z differs from the proof given earlier for subsets of F_p^N. The answer is not very much: the main differences are due to the fact that cyclic groups of prime order do not have lots of subgroups, so one has to

Taylor Theorem Proof

In this video, I give a very neat and elegant proof of Taylor’s theorem, just to show you how neat math can be! It is simply based on repeated applications of the fundamental theorem of calculus. Enjoy! Note: The thumbnail is taken from https://i.redd.it/kv7lk5kn31e01.jpg
