Continuous mapping theorem

In probability theory, the continuous mapping theorem states that continuous functions preserve limits even if their arguments are sequences of random variables. A continuous function, in Heine’s definition, is such a function that maps convergent sequences into convergent sequences: if xn → x then g(xn) → g(x). The continuous mapping theorem states that this will also be true if we replace the deterministic sequence {xn} with a sequence of random variables {Xn}, and replace the standard notion of convergence of real numbers “→” with one of the types of convergence of random variables. This theorem was first proved by Henry Mann and Abraham Wald in 1943, and it is therefore sometimes called the Mann–Wald theorem. Meanwhile, Denis Sargan refers to it as the general transformation theorem. (Wikipedia).

Pre-Calculus - Where is a function continuous

This video covers how you can tell if a function is continuous or not using an informal definition for continuity. Later in the video, we look at a function that is not continuous for all values, but is continuous for certain intervals. For more videos visit http://www.mysecretmathtutor.

Tverberg’s theorem states that any (d+1)(r-1)+1 points in R^d can be partitioned into r subsets whose convex hulls have a point in common. There is a topological version of it, which is often compared with an LS-version of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem. I will talk about a generalization of the

Title: Borsuk–Ulam theorems for maps into higher-dimensional codomains Abstract: I will describe Borsuk-Ulam theorems for maps of spheres into higher-dimensional codomains. Given a continuous map from a sphere to Euclidean space, we say the map is odd if it respects the standard antipodal

The Borsuk-Ulam Theorem | Nathan Dalaklis

Mappings and functions that work on topological spaces other than the real line can be counterintuitive, and in cases like with the sphere, we have things like the Borsuk-Ulam Theorem which can assert the truth of things that would appear, without proof, to be outright lies. In this video,
