J-invariant

In mathematics, Felix Klein's j-invariant or j function, regarded as a function of a complex variable τ, is a modular function of weight zero for SL(2, Z) defined on the upper half-plane of complex numbers. It is the unique such function which is holomorphic away from a simple pole at the cusp such that Rational functions of j are modular, and in fact give all modular functions. Classically, the j-invariant was studied as a parameterization of elliptic curves over C, but it also has surprising connections to the symmetries of the Monster group (this connection is referred to as monstrous moonshine). (Wikipedia).

Example of Invariant Subspace

Matrix Theory: Let T: R^4 to R^4 be the linear transformation that sends v to Av where A = [0 0 0 -1 \ 1 0 0 0 \ 0 1 0 -2 \ 0 0 1 0]. Find all subspaces invariant under T.

Bertrand Eynard - An overview of the topological recursion

The "topological recursion" defines a double family of "invariants" $W_{g,n}$ associated to a "spectral curve" (which we shall define). The invariants $W_{g,n}$ are meromorphic $n$-forms defined by a universal recursion relation on $|\chi|=2g-2+n$, the initial terms $W_{0,1}$

Robyn Brooks and Celia Hacker (6/24/20): Morse-based fibering of the rank invariant

Title: Morse-based fibering of the rank invariant Abstract: Given the success of single-parameter persistence in data analysis and the fact that some systems warrant analysis across multiple parameters, it is highly desirable to develop data analysis pipelines based on multi-parameter per

Math 060 101317C Linear Transformations: Isomorphisms

Lemma: Linear transformations that agree on a basis are identical. Definition: one-to-one (injective). Examples and non-examples. Lemma: T is one-to-one iff its kernel is {0}. Definition: onto (surjective). Examples and non-examples. Definition: isomorphism; isomorphic. Theorem: T

Linear Transformations: One-One

Linear Algebra: We recall the definition of one-one for functions and apply it to linear transformations. We obtain a simple rule for checking one-one in this case: either the kernel is zero or the associated matrix has a pivot in each column in row echelon form. Several examples are gi
