On motivations of continuous geometry

The development of continuous geometry as an abstract field seems to be following a trend of removing the significance of low-dimensional entities from geometry. As classical treatments of geometry ...

expected value from some points in continuous homogeneous spatial Poisson point process

Let $n$ point are distributed as per a homogeneous spatial Poisson process of rate $λ$ in a square of side $2a$, and assume that $4$ fixed points are located at $(\frac{a}{2},\frac{a}{2})$, $(-\frac{a}...

There is a natural set of numbers with dimension in [0,1]?

After reading this question, I want to know: if $\mathbb{Z}$ is $\mathbb{R}^0$ (according to Hausdorf Dimension of the integer set), and $\mathbb{R}$ is $\mathbb{R}^1$, there is a natural definition ...

Fitting a straight line and a curve (hypocyloid) with C2/C1 continuity (problem at joints)

(Kindly have a look at the link of the picture in the link) I am joining a straight line, a hypocycloid curve (in between), and a straight line again, which are joined arbitrarily. At the point of ...

Prove that a group law of the Heisenberg group is continuous.

The group law on $\mathbb{H}^n$ -Heisenberg group- is given as follows: $(s,x,y)·(s′,x′,y′)=(s+s′+ ω(x,y;x′,y′),x+x′,y+y′)$, how can I prove that this group law is continuous? Many thanks.

Least upper bound and greatest lower bound of the void set.

Let $(L,\ge)$ a partially ordered set. Suppose that for avery $S \subset L$, there exists an element $LUB(S)= a$ such that $x \ge a \iff x \ge u \quad \forall u \in S$ and, with the obvious meaning of ...
