Theorems in analysis

Whitney extension theorem

In mathematics, in particular in mathematical analysis, the Whitney extension theorem is a partial converse to Taylor's theorem. Roughly speaking, the theorem asserts that if A is a closed subset of a Euclidean space, then it is possible to extend a given function of A in such a way as to have prescribed derivatives at the points of A. It is a result of Hassler Whitney. (Wikipedia).

Field Theory - (optional) Primitive Element Theorem - Lecture 15

For finite extensions L \supset F we show that there exists an element \gamma in L such that F(\gamma) = L. This is called the primitive element theorem.

Basis Extension

Extend a linearly independent set to a basis In this video, I show how to concretely extend any linearly independent subset of a vector space to a basis of that vector space. We know we can do that in theory (using the replacement theorem), but this video shows how to do it in concrete si

FIT2.1. Field Extensions

Field Theory: Let F be a subfield of the field K. We consider K as a vector space over F and define the degree of K over F as the dimension. We give a degree formula for successive extensions, and consider extensions in terms of bases. EDIT: Typo - around 3:15, it should be cube root(2

Linear Extension Theorem

In this video, I prove one of the cornerstones of linear algebra: The Linear Extension Theorem, which intuitively says that, in order to define a linear transformation T, you only need to know the values of T on a basis. In other words, if you only know T on a couple of vectors, you can ac

Basic/Primitive Extensions and Minimal Polynomials - Field Theory - Lecture 02

A "basic" or "primitive" extension of a field F is a new field F(alpha) where alpha in K an extension of F. We give some basic properties of extensions. Most importantly introduce the concept of minimal polynomials. @MatthewSalomone has some good videos on this already which might be mor

FIT2.3.3. Algebraic Extensions

Field Theory: We define an algebraic extension of a field F and show that successive algebraic extensions are also algebraic. This gives a useful criterion for checking algberaic elements. We finish with algebraic closures.

Degrees in Towers - Field Theory - Lecture 05

Let L contain K which contains F where all extensions are finite. In this video we prove [L:F] = [L:K][K:F]. This is a super useful formula.

Dimension and Isomorphism

In this video, I show that two vector spaces are isomorphic if and only if they have the same dimension. This is an important fact in linear algebra. The proof is very cute and uses the linear extension theorem which I talked about in another video. Enjoy! Linear Extension Theorem https:/

Pascal Auscher: On representation for solutions of boundary value problems for elliptic systems (2)

In order to extend the first order approach to BVP with Lp data in the sense of Kenig-Pipher, we need to extend our semigroups to Lp setting. Unfortunately, our semigroups are seldom bounded on all of Lp. They turn out to be bounded on some abstract Hardy spaces associated to a first order
