Dirichlet form

In potential theory (the study of harmonic function) and functional analysis, Dirichlet forms generalize the Laplacian (the mathematical operator on scalar fields). Dirichlet forms can be defined on any measure space, without the need for mentioning partial derivatives. This allows mathematicians to study the Laplace equation and heat equation on spaces that are not manifolds, for example, fractals. The benefit on these spaces is that one can do this without needing a gradient operator, and in particular, one can even weakly define a "Laplacian" in this manner if starting with the Dirichlet form.

Dirichlet Eta Function - Integral Representation

Today, we use an integral to derive one of the integral representations for the Dirichlet eta function. This representation is very similar to the Riemann zeta function, which explains why their respective infinite series definition is quite similar (with the eta function being an alte rna

(ML 7.8) Dirichlet-Categorical model (part 2)

The Dirichlet distribution is a conjugate prior for the Categorical distribution (i.e. a PMF a finite set). We derive the posterior distribution and the (posterior) predictive distribution under this model.

Representation theory: Dirichlet's theorem

In this talk we see how to use characters of finite abelian groups to prove Dirichlet's theorem that there are infinitely many primes in certain arithmetic progressions. We first recall Euler's proof that there are infinitely many primes, which is the simplest case of Dirichlet's proof. T
