Kac's lemma

In ergodic theory, Kac's lemma, demonstrated by mathematician Mark Kac in 1947, is a lemma stating that in a measure space the orbit of almost all the points contained in a set of such space, whose measure is , return to within an average time inversely proportional to . The lemma extends what is stated by Poincaré recurrence theorem, in which it is shown that the points return in infinite times. (Wikipedia).

Berge's lemma, an animated proof

Berge's lemma is a mathematical theorem in graph theory which states that a matching in a graph is of maximum cardinality if and only if it has no augmenting paths. But what do those terms even mean? And how do we prove Berge's lemma to be true? == CORRECTION: at 7:50, the red text should

Proof of Lemma and Lagrange's Theorem

Please Subscribe here, thank you!!! https://goo.gl/JQ8Nys Proof of Lemma and Lagrange's Theorem. This video starts by proving that any two right cosets have the same cardinality. Then we prove Lagrange's Theorem which says that if H is a subgroup of a finite group G then the order of H div

Introduction to additive combinatorics lecture 5.8 --- Freiman homomorphisms and isomorphisms.

The notion of a Freiman homomorphism and the closely related notion of a Freiman isomorphism are fundamental concepts in additive combinatorics. Here I explain what they are and prove a lemma that states that a subset A of F_p^N such that kA - kA is not too large is "k-isomorphic" to a sub

Theory of numbers: Gauss's lemma

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We describe Gauss's lemma which gives a useful criterion for whether a number n is a quadratic residue of a prime p. We work it out explicitly for n = -1, 2 and 3, and as an application prove some cases of Di

P. Scholze - p-adic K-theory of p-adic rings

The original proof of Grothendieck's purity conjecture in étale cohomology (the Thomason-Gabber theorem) relies on results on l-adic K-theory and its relation to étale cohomology when l is invertible. Using recent advances of Clausen-Mathew-Morrow and joint work with Bhatt and Morrow, our

One cannot (always) hear the shape of a drum

The question "Can One Hear the Shape of a Drum?" was asked by Marc Kac in a 1966 article in the American Mathematical Monthly. The vibrations of a drum are governed by its resonant frequencies, which are related to what mathematicians call the "eigenvalues of the Laplace operator with Diri
