Smooth infinitesimal analysis

Smooth infinitesimal analysis is a modern reformulation of the calculus in terms of infinitesimals. Based on the ideas of F. W. Lawvere and employing the methods of category theory, it views all functions as being continuous and incapable of being expressed in terms of discrete entities. As a theory, it is a subset of synthetic differential geometry. The nilsquare or nilpotent infinitesimals are numbers ε where ε² = 0 is true, but ε = 0 need not be true at the same time.

Epsilon delta limit (Example 3): Infinite limit at a point

This is the continuation of the epsilon-delta series! You can find Examples 1 and 2 on blackpenredpen's channel. Here I use an epsilon-delta argument to calculate an infinite limit, and at the same time I'm showing you how to calculate a right-hand-side limit. Enjoy!

Infinitesimal Calculus with Finite Fields | Famous Math Problems 22d | N J Wildberger

Is it possible to do Calculus over finite fields? Yes! And can infinitesimal analysis still play a part? Yes! This video will show you how, by working out explicitly some remarkable geometry formed by the semi-cubical parabola over the explicit finite field F_7. It is helpful to realize

Calculus for Beginners full course | Calculus for Machine learning

Calculus, originally called infinitesimal calculus or "the calculus of infinitesimals", is the mathematical study of continuous change, in the same way that geometry is the study of shape and algebra is the study of generalizations of arithmetic operations. This course is for those who wan

Robert Bryant: Limits, Bubbles, and Singularities: The fundamental ideas of Karen Uhlenbeck

Abstract: Ever since the Greeks, the challenges of understanding limits and infinities have fascinated us, ultimately leading to the development of calculus and much of modern mathematics. When does a limit exist and in what sense? How do we capture these notions in geometric and intuitive

Approximate cross validation for large data and high dimensions - Tamara Broderick, MIT

The error or variability of statistical and machine learning algorithms is often assessed by repeatedly re-fitting a model with different weighted versions of the observed data. The ubiquitous tools of cross-validation (CV) and the bootstrap are examples of this technique. These methods a

T. Ozuch - Noncollapsed degeneration and desingularization of Einstein 4-manifolds (vt)

We study the noncollapsed singularity formation of Einstein 4-manifolds. We prove that any smooth Einstein 4-manifold close to a singular one in a mere Gromov-Hausdorff (GH) sense is the result of a gluing-perturbation procedure that we develop. This sheds light on the structure of the mod
