I'm craving a toasted sesame bagel with cream cheese right now after practice. I really wish Easy Chair was a more convenient stop between the pool and lab... or just in general, I don't like having to navigate major roads and intersections just to get to a bagel.

I've said it before, countless times, and I will say it again, countless more, for ever and ever because words simply can not convey the feelings I am trying to describe ( Read more... )

well, I don't know if making use of the Gronwall-Bellman inequality really makes up for losing a house to someone who offers the same amount, just in cash, but it did make me rather proud. Gronwall-Bellman isn't quite as fun to say as Lipschitz but it's just a tool, not a condition that needs to be proven so it makes it a lot easier to stomach. ( Read more... )

I would like to take this moment to express my frustration with the homework I'm working on. The first problem is all about proving Lipschitz conditions on various expressions. Loosely stated a function f(t,x) is Lipschitz in x if its partial derivative with respect to x is bounded. The actual definition is a bit more defined than that and there ( Read more... )
