Talk:Bell series

message: The uniqueness theorem is a triviality. I would like to see some interesting applications of Bell series. They seem to be pretty boring objects. Why ? If your arithmetic function is integer valued (and most "interesting" arithmetic functions have integer values), then its Bell series must be either rational or have a natural boundary at its radius of convergence (this is a fairly deep theorem, conjectured by Polya, and proved by Carleson I think) ... In other words the Bell series is either "too trivial" to be studied, or in the other direction, too complicated to get anything useful out of it . This is at least how I see it. Reactions ?

Talk:Seven Lakes Drive

message: *987E designation is state-maintained and begins at the Johnsontown north junction (not the south junction).
*981G runs from NY 17 to start of state-maintenance (987E) and is village-maintained. (Listed by NYSDOT as having a lenght of 0.36 mi).
*South Entrance Road in Bear Mountain State Park is town-maintained 
See Rockalnd Legislative District 1 map.
**Distance from Johnsontown Road south junction to Orange-Rockland county line, 6.25 miles - checks with NYSDOT (6.22). By contrast, the north junction is 5.95 miles.
**0.36 miles from NY 17 places the end of 981G somewhere between Waldron Terrace and Washington Avenue, about midway between the two. This leaves a gap of about 200 yards between the east end of 981G and the west (south) end of 987E. The NYSDOT traffic counts mention "east end of 987E" at the eastern terminus of 981G...how is that possible, both in terms of distance and direction ("east end")?
**Not sure what it all means... Maybe the gap is locally maintained? --TMF Let's Go Mets - Stats 03:19, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bernstein inequalities (probability theory)

message: Isn't it more accurate to say that the proofs are based on Markov's inequality rather than Chebyshev's? I haven't read seen the proofs for Benstein's inequalities but the proofs of the closely related Chernoff and Azuma-Hoeffding inequalities are all based on Markov's inequality.

replies: text: "Markov inequality" is a misnomer (although often used). Chebyshev was the supervisor of Markov, and he applied the inequality to X, X2, and other functions of X. Sasha (talk) 15:58, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

text: when I wrote this, I think I checked Bernstein's paper vs. Hoeffding's, and Hoeffding's result was indeed contained in that of Bernstein (ie my claim is that H's result is contained in B's paper, not that it follows from the simplest case stated in the lead of our article). This was long ago, and now I do not have either paper at hand, but I will try to check again and provide better references (preferably, secondary ones). Sasha (talk) 15:58, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

text: It could well depend on what is meant by Hoeffding's inequality. Hoeffding's paper contains several general results that are more complicated but stronger than what is typically called Hoeffding's inequality: see paper cited in Hoeffding's inequality. Melcombe (talk) 22:45, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Bessel polynomials

message: The definition favored by mathematicians ... y_n(x)=...
Another definition, ... the reverse Bessel polynomials ... \theta_n(x)=...
Then later:
The Bessel polynomial may also be defined using Bessel functions ... where ... yn(x) is the reverse polynomial
Please use the same notation for ordinary vs reverse throughout.
* Wolfram uses y for ordinary "y_3(x) = 15x^3+15x^2+6x+1"
* OEIS uses "y_3(x) = 15*x^3 + 15*x^2 + 6*x + 1" for ordinary
* Krall and Frink 1948 says "the Bessel polynomial  yn(x)" and lists an ordinary polynomial as increasing powers: "yn(x) = 1 + 6x + 15x^2 + 15x^3"
* Bessel Polynomials by E. Grosswald says "we shall adopt in general the original normalization of Krall and Frink" but then "the reverse polynomial yn(Z)"
* Berg-Vignat 2005 says "θn are sometimes called the reverse Bessel polynomials and yn (u) ... the ordinary Bessel polynomials."
* Campos and Calderón 2011 says "the Bessel polynomial yn (x). ... reverse Bessel polynomials θn (x)"
So it seems like most are in agreement that y is the ordinary and theta the reverse and Grosswald is the only exception?  — Omegatron (talk) 02:38, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Beta prime distribution

message: The comment about Beta Prime and F appears to be incorrect.  Although it makes sense that these are related the statement that if b is beta prime, then b*alpha/beta is F can't make sense, since if alpha = beta then you just get b and F distribution is not invariant when you multiply d1 and d2 by constants.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.244.153.18 (talk) 11:31, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Beta Prime and F 

message: Dear main authors: as you probably know, the beta-prime distribution is the same as the F-distribution, if one replaces in the latter: d_1/2 \rightarrow \alpha, d_2/2 \rightarrow \beta, d_1 x/d_2 \rightarrow x. That means that part of the text in the F-distribution-article can be copied and pasted into this article. That's what I did for the CDF and the kurtosis. Regards: Herbmuell (talk) 17:59, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cumulative distribution function and excess kurtosis 

message: The sidebox of the article states that the mean and variance of the distributions are
\mu = \frac{\alpha}{\beta-1} \text{ if } \beta>1
and
v = \frac{\alpha(\alpha+\beta-1)}{(\beta-2)(\beta-1)^2} \text{ if } \beta>2
However, solving the system of equations for \alpha and \beta shows the alternate parameterization should be
\alpha = \mu (\beta - 1)
and
\beta = \frac{\mu (\mu + 1)}{v} + 2
So the given \beta solution in the text is incorrect  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.208.46.92 (talk) 23:57, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Constable Burton Hall

message: Hi  These are pretty useful links (as I'm sure you're aware) for a concise reference on buildings. Therefore, this template was created to have them on historic sites in their infobox for quick and clear access. Considering that Grade II* & Grade I buildings are considered notable (regardless of other reasons for notability on this article on which point, to be honest, I am not well versed in other notability concepts), it would make sense to contain the coach house and stables here alongside the main house. The park is also important and, as you will be aware, Grade anything parks & gardens are much higher calibre than grade anything buildings.
The article could do with fleshing out, but that doesn't warrant removing the scope of the listings imho. Plus, the article was marked as needing an infobox, and all over Wikipedia I have been adding them in this style (see Burghley, Hengrave, Chatsworth, Adlington, etc.), and so it makes sense for it to remain somewhat uniform on that front. 
I had some other reasons but I only just woke up and so not at full functioning yet. :)

Talk:Substitution tiling

message: The diagrams of substitution tilings should highlight the presence of the initial prototile in the interior of the expanded tiling.  Without this, the substitution tiling might not tile the entire plane.   For instance, if the second substitution tiling mapped the prototile to its placement in the lower left of the expanded tiling, then the system would only tile the first quadrant of the plane.–Dan Hoeytalk 13:39, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Bicommutant

message: Something in layman's terms would be nice.  Why is this important?
:I've added some material which partly explains the importance of the bicommutant, although I admit it's not particularly accessible to the layman. Looking at the material, I can't see any way of making it more accessible. Apart from anything else, I'm not sure this article would be of interest to someone not already familiar with the technical concepts used, and I can't envisage any way of rewriting it without those concepts.
:If, however, you are layman with an interest in this article, it'd help to know where your interests lie, what particular part of the article is difficult, and what you already know; I don't think it's possible to rewrite the article so that everyone would understand it, but if there's some area of, say, engineering or physics, or even some unrelated area of maths, where these ideas would be useful, then I might be able to put it into more familiar language for those people.

Take the following graph: {AB, AC, BA, BC, CA, CB, DE, DF, ED, EF, FE, FD, AD, DA}. Every vertex has in-degree and out-degree at least 2. However, every path from A to F must go through AD, so there aren't two independent paths from A to F. In fact, removing AD leaves a graph which is not strongly connected.

Talk:List of reported UFO sightings/Archive 1

message: Nobody commented on my suggestions on this page so I took the liberty to do some remodeling. 
I wiped out the first paragraph and replaced it with a simple summary of the lists contents. References to conspiracies and folklore are best handled under Unidentified flying object.
I composed a pattern for the list items: year, incident name, brief description. Description should note at least the type of the incident: UFO flap, mass sighting of UFO, sighting of aliens, or abduction, etc.
I also removed two external links. The links are below.
* Beehive - James Howard case
* Davis-Monthan AFB case
As an important note, the 1997 Mexico event described in Unidentified flying object under Notable sightings and events seems to be missing from this page.
Because the objects which caused the transits of intramercurial planets which were reported in the 18th and 19th century have not been identified, events of this kind are also a type of UFO (=unidentified flying object)

Talk:Cornel Chiriac

message: * While writing this ':ru:Child in Time' stub for Russian Viki, I came across these lines by Ian Gillan, which I find quite extraordinary:
:Through the medium of Radio Free Europe this song and many others reached the ears and hearts of like minded people behind the 'Iron Curtain' and as I found out many years later, it was of a great comfort to them when they understood that there were some peace loving friends out there somewhere. 
I've no doubt whatsoever that by 'Radio Free Europe' he did actually mean one person, Cornel Chiriak whose Metronom has had a cult following not only in Romania but in the southern regions of the USSR as well and indeed served as the only reliable source of new music for us. The article itself is good (and for me in many ways an eye-opener) but still I feel like something more has to be said about the historical meaning of the work of this charismatic figure who's had vast knowledge of music and the most fascinating way of presenting it.
