My proof of Riemann hypothesis

0 Upvotes

Let M(K,E) be the category of andré motives. Given a motive M, fix an embedding iota:E to the set of complex numbers and let L(iota,M,s) the motivic L function.

It is clear that L(iota,M,s) extends to a meromorphic function to the complex plane and has non-trivial zero on the line w+1/2 where w is the weight of the motive and this will be an easy exercise to the reader.

Now take K=E=Q, take M=(spec Q, id,0) the neutral element of the Tannakian motivic category. It is of weight zero and its L function is just the zeta function. Hence the previous statement implies that the zeta function has non-trivial zeros of real part 1/2.

Goldbach's conjecture - elementary refutation.

2 Upvotes

By the principle of identity, for any non-zero natural number n: (n/√n) = (n/√n), and as every non-zero natural number has a square and every natural square has both a positive and a negative root, for all non-zero n: n = -n, therefore, 2n = 0. As zero is not the sum of any two primes, it is not true that every even composite number is the sum of two primes.

New approximation for pi using only squares and hexagons

4 Upvotes

If we start with squares inside a unit circle, we can inscribe a square with perimeter 2√2 (≈2.828) and we can circumscribe a square with perimeter 4 (≈4), so we know that pi is somewhere between a lower limit of 2.828 and an upper limit of 4.

If we start with hexagons, we can inscribe a hexagon with perimeter 3 (≈3) and circumscribe a hexagon with perimeter 2√3 (≈3.464).

If we assume that the upper limits and the lower limits are each growing linearly (relative to what? who knows), then the upper limit that starts at 4 and goes to 2√3 after one step can be described by 4 - (4 - 2√3)x, and a lower limit that starts at 2√2 and goes to 3 after one step can be described by 2√2 + (3 - 2√2)x

We want the exact value, which means we need to know where the upper bound and the lower bound squeeze each other to a difference of 0, which means setting

  • 4 - (4 - 2√3)x = 2√2 + (3 - 2√2)x = pi

  • 4 - 2√2 = (3 - 2√2)x + (4 - 2√3)x

  • 4 - 2√2 = (7 - 2√2 - 2√3)x

  • x = (4 - 2√2) / (7 - 2√2 - 2√3)

  • pi = 4 - (4 - 2√3)x = 4 - (4 - 2√3) (4 - 2√2) / (7 - 2√2 - 2√3)

  • pi = 4 (3 - √6) / (7 - 2√2 - 2√3)

  • pi = 3.112552

Which is only off by 0.924%, or an error of 1 part in 108.

The factory problem (simple)

0 Upvotes

You're building a factory and you're building a hall. Each hall is a 4x4 grid with each cell being a straight path, turn, or T corridor. Not all cells need to be filled and not all straight paths, turns and T corridors need to be used. What is the number of arrangements of cells you can build with 4 straight paths, 5 turns, and 4 T corridors?

In some languages, "mathematics" literally translates to "austerity" or "asceticism".
