The document discusses zeta functions and their connection to number theory and algebraic geometry. It defines the Riemann zeta function and shows how it can be rewritten as an infinite product over prime numbers. This generalization is extended to Dedekind domains and used to define zeta functions for curves over finite fields. Properties of these curve zeta functions are explored, including a formula relating their coefficients to the number of points on the curves over finite fields.

On maximal and variational Fourier restrictionVjekoslavKovac1
Workshop talk slides, Follow-up workshop to trimester program "Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations", Hausdorff Institute, Bonn, May 2019.
Understanding the "Chain Rule" for Derivatives by Deriving Your Own VersionJames Smith
Because the Chain Rule can confuse students as much as it helps them solve real problems, we put ourselves in the shoes of the mathematicians who derived it, so that students may understand the motivation for the rule; its limitations; and why textbooks present it in its customary form. We begin by finding the derivative of sin2x without using the Chain Rule. That exercise, having shown that even a comparatively simple compound function can be bothersome to differentiate using the definition of the derivative as a limit, provides the motivation for developing our own formula for the derivative of the general compound function g[f(x)]. In the course of that development, we see why the function f must be continuous at any value of x to which the formula is applied. We finish by comparing our formula to that which is commonly given.

Based on the readings and content for this course.docx
Based on the readings and content for this course, which topic did you find most useful or interesting? How will you use it later in life? What makes it valuable?
Ans:
Well, there are many small but significant things in real life, that I understand, are related to maths.
For example the screen size of a TV or a laptop. When we say 14 inch laptop we mean the diagonal of the screen is approximately 14 inches.
This is a direct application of Pythagorean Theorem.
And depending on the shape of the room determines the formula for area that I use. For example, if our room was a perfect square (which none of them are) I would utilize the formula a = s^2, since our rooms our rectangle, the formula we more commonly use is a = lw.
Again I understand the amount of money we spend on gas can be modeled by a mathematical function.
When we throw a ball up, the time taken for it to come down can be modeled by a quadratic equation.
There are so many things.
I won't pick up any particular thing.
But after this course, I am able to look at many things in a more analytical way.
I can understand the mathematical logic behind them.
So all these are valuable to me
Do you always use the property of distribution when multiplying monomials and polynomials.docx
Do you always use the property of distribution when multiplying monomials and polynomials? Explain why or why not. In what situations would distribution become important? Provide an example for the class to practice with.
Ans:
The property of distribution is one important tool in solving the polynomial multiplications.
For example:
3x*(x+5) = 3x*x + 3x*5 = 3x^2 +15x
But this property is used only when one of the bracketed terms contains two or more terms of different order.
For example in the above case, the bracket consists of two different order terms, x and 5.
Let’s take another case:
3x*(x+2x)
This can be solved in two ways.
3x(x+2x) = 3x*x + 3x*2x = 3x^2 +6x^2 = 9x^2
Or we can say:
3x(x+2x) = 3x*3x = 9x^2
So in the 1st method we used the distribute property.
But in the 2nd case we did not.
So it depends on the particular problem and looking at the different terms we can decide whether or not to use distributive property.
Explain how to factor the following trinomials forms.docx
Explain how to factor the following trinomials forms: x2 + bx + c and ax2 + bx + c. Is there more than one way to factor this? Show your answer using both words and mathematical notation
Ans:
Actually I am not very sure how to answer this.
For me x2 + bx + c and ax2 + bx + c are not different from each other.
The 1st one is a special case of the second expression where a=1.
To factor the expression ax^2 + bx + c we first need to factor the middle term bx cleverly.
Now it's to be understood that not all trinomials can be factored. But some of them can be.
Basically, we have to write b in the form b= p+q so that p*q= a*c. This is the only trick.

Transformations of functions by exponential of linear and quadratic combinations in d/dx and x are studied, including translation, Gaussian, dilatation in space and phase space, partial Fourier transforms, change of x into exponential of x, etc..., A new look of the Fourier transform in its differential representation is highlighted, showing its great convenience over the integral representation.

Theorem
Let q = pn, and let ¯Fq be the algebraic closure of Fq. Let Fqn be the
unique subfield of ¯Fq of degree n over Fq. Let f ∈ Fq be absolutely
irreducible, and Cf its coordinate ring. Then the sets
{M ∈ Max(Cf ) : [Cf /M : Fq] = d} and Zf (Fqn ) are finite. Let
Nn = |Zf (Fqn )| and bd = |{M ∈ Max(Cf ) : [Cf /M : Fq] = d}|. Then
Nn = d|n dbd .

47. Riemann Hypothesis for Curves
We can write our zeta function of our curve as a function of s by writing
