Theorems in algebraic number theory

Minkowski's bound

In algebraic number theory, Minkowski's bound gives an upper bound of the norm of ideals to be checked in order to determine the class number of a number field K. It is named for the mathematician Hermann Minkowski. (Wikipedia).

Upper Bound

Upper and Lower Bound In this video, I define what it means for a set to be bounded above and bounded below. This will be useful in our definition of inf and sup. Check out my Real Numbers Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJb1qAQIrmmCZggpJZvUXnUzaw7fHCtoh

Convergent sequences are bounded

Convergent Sequences are Bounded In this video, I show that if a sequence is convergent, then it must be bounded, that is some part of it doesn't go to infinity. This is an important result that is used over and over again in analysis. Enjoy! Other examples of limits can be seen in the

A. Song - What is the (essential) minimal volume? 3

I will discuss the notion of minimal volume and some of its variants. The minimal volume of a manifold is defined as the infimum of the volume over all metrics with sectional curvature between -1 and 1. Such an invariant is closely related to "collapsing theory", a far reaching set of resu

Proof: Convergent Sequence is Bounded | Real Analysis

Any convergent sequence must be bounded. We'll prove this basic result about convergent sequences in today's lesson. We use the definition of the limit of a sequence, a useful equivalence involving absolute value inequalities, and then considering a maximum and minimum will help us find an

[ANT06] Real and imaginary embeddings

When we try to draw a real quadratic extension of Z in the complex plane, it collapses onto the real line - we don't get a lattice any more. We're going to prise it apart by drawing it on the real line in two different ways at once. We'll be able to recover a genuine notion of geometry, an

Michael Damron (Georgia Tech) -- Critical first-passage percolation in two dimensions

In 2d first-passage percolation (FPP), we place nonnegative i.i.d. weights (t_e) on the edges of Z^2 and study the induced weighted graph pseudometric T = T(x,y). If we denote by p = P(t_e = 0), then there is a transition in the large-scale behavior of the model as p varies from 0 to 1. Wh
