Talk:Hamburger moment problem

message: I don't think that the second characterisation can be right: consider a distribution whose mean is zero so that \Delta_1^{(1)}=-\mu_2^2.
According to The Moment Problem, which looks authoritative, this characterisation is actually the solution to the Stieltjes moment problem, and the wikipedia article on that is only a stub.
So I propose to move this condition to the Stiltjes problem page.
Meanwhile, again according to The Moment Problem the solution to the Hamburger moment problem is that the sequence \mu_n should be positive definite.  It is not completely obvious to me that that is equivalent to this characterisation 1, it feels stronger.  Can anyone confirm or otherwise?

thread_title: Can't be right

message: i think the statement "the solutions of the Hamburger moment problem is parametrized by the self-adjoint extensions of the operator T" is correct and should be retained. so a necessary and sufficient condition that the solution is unique is that the deficiency index of T-bar, the closure of the operator T, be (0,0), which is quite nice.

Talk:History of Virginia Beach, Virginia

message: I added two citations about the Greekfest riots, and rewrote the line they refer to read "Students and community leaders claimed..."  I think I've made a rather shaky assertion based on a really small number of quoted individuals, so in the spirit of honesty, here are are the quotes I'm referring to in the articles I cited:
from "All's Quiet on Virginia's Eastern Front; 2 Years After Greekfest Violence, a Typical Labor Day Weekend Comes to Virginia Beach":  Black students, who used to flock annually to Virginia Beach for an informal street party, came in smaller numbers. Greekfest, as the bash was called, just isn't the same, they said.
City officials "ruined it," said Eric Sharpe, 23, a graduate of William Paterson College in New Jersey. "A lot of people aren't going to come down here and pay that kind of money when they can't even enjoy themselves."
From "All Sides See Greekfest as Holiday Non-Event":  Some officials and students interviewed suggested that Greekfest ran its course and disintegrated when it became too big and too structured. "The students never wanted a major event," said Mary Redd, of the Hampton Roads area Urban League. "They wanted a place to chill out."
if anyone has a better way of handling the issue, I wholeheartedly encourage them to do so. Some jerk on the Internet (talk) 22:09, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

message: This section doesn't do justice to the fact that police were indiscriminately beating and harassing everyone they came in contact with, including news reporters and journalists.

I've also noted on the Police Riot talk page that this event be added, due to the police actually being a major cause of the full scale riot that broke out due to their actions. 2600:8805:2007:6300:3169:6C25:59A4:72C (talk) 19:12, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

message: I go to school at Tech and learned this information from someone who worked on the project: The first attempt at putting together the supercomputer used consumer-grade parts and couldn't return correct answers because of cosmic rays flipping bits in its RAM. Unfortunately, the only documentation I can find of this is on the Apple profiles page documenting the upgrade to server-grade components  that included error-correction in the memory controller:
Error correction is vitally important for the kinds of “grand-challenge” computational science problems handled by System X. With these problems, says Dr. Varadarajan, “nobody knows what the data is supposed to look like. Without a way to correct for errors, scientists have to repeat a run five or six times. And, even then, all of their results may only point roughly in the same direction. Their machines are telling them nothing useful.”
This shortcoming of the original system potentially explains the otherwise mysteriously small amount of information online (and oddly worded official descriptions) regarding the original System X. Quietly upgrading to different components and pretending the thing worked the whole time seems like academic dishonesty to me, but I've tried to document only the bits of the situation that are verifiable and will write all original research on another forum. -covracer (talk) 02:52, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

message: I came here looking to refresh my memory (from a statistics course 30 years ago), but did not find this article to be helpful. The article almost immediately dives into mathematical formulas. Statistics is perceived as important to a larger group than the mathematically-inclined, so this article needs to target an audience of diverse mathematical backgrounds (just as statistics classes vary widely, from descriptive to rigorous). 
The article "Variance" was very helpful. It begins with a "Background" section that uses the standard rolling dice example, to first provide an intuitive understanding, before diving into formulas. That allows those seeking a general understanding to get what they need then exit when the going gets cryptic.
