Google and eigenvalues Dr Peyam 2022-12-07 | Google and eigenvalues. We describe the Pagerank algorithm, which was one of the algorithms used by Google for their search engine. For this, we rank the websites using an importance vector vector and write the system as a Markov chain, using matrices. Then we diagonalize the matrix using linear algebra, more precisely eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Finally, by taking limits of the matrix, we can determine which website reigns supreme. This probably has applications in data science and neural networks as well.Matrix Limits and Markov Chains: youtu.be/G0V3UzifI_0Diagonalization: youtu.be/EblrLncv7a0Subscribe to my channel: youtube.com/drpeyamTikTok: tiktok.com/@drpeyamInstagram: instagram.com/peyamstagramTwitter: twitter.com/drpeyamTeespring merch: teespring.com/stores/dr-peyam

Half integral of x Dr Peyam 2022-02-11 | Defining the half integral, which is halfway between a function and its integral. Done by analogy with half derivatives, by finding formulas for the derivatives of power functions. It uses the factorial which is then generalized to the gamma function with Gaussian integrals. I also mention trig functions and applications to broken processes. This is a delight for any calculus student or anyone who is interested in fractional derivatives.0:00 Introduction0:30 Analogy2:58 Gamma Function5:00 Half integral of x9:37 Properties and ApplicationsHalf Derivative: youtu.be/gaAhCTDc6oAYT channel: youtube.com/drpeyamTikTok channel: tiktok.com/@drpeyamInstagram: instagram.com/peyamstagramTwitter: twitter.com/drpeyamTeespring merch: teespring.com/stores/dr-peyam
Zeros of polynomial vs derivative Dr Peyam 2022-02-07 | We will see how the zeros of the derivative of a polynomial are related to the zeros of the original polynomial. This is called the Gauss Lucas Theorem for zeros of derivatives, which is an elegant result from complex analysis that relates it with the convex hull of the original roots. I also mention Marden's theorem, which is a special case of a triangle, and which has to do with the Steiner inellipse and foci.

How many tangents to this ellipse? (no calculus) Dr Peyam 2022-01-12 | How many tangent lines are there to two intersecting ellipses? Intuitively there should be four, but why? Here a solution that uses no calculus whatsoever, just pure algebra, suitable for high school and algebra 2 students. It's a very nice application of the quadratic equation, followed by systems of equations.

all solutions to x^2022=1 Dr Peyam 2022-01-07 | Solve all 2022 roots of unity. I solve the root equation x^2022 = 1, to start off the new year. I do this the algebraic way by using difference of squares and nth roots, and the complex numbers way by using complex exponentials and euler identity and de moivre's formula. Then I plot the solutions on the unit circleSupport me on Patreon: patreon.com/drpeyamYT channel: youtube.com/drpeyamTikTok: tiktok.com/@drpeyamInstagram: instagram.com/peyamstagramTwitter: twitter.com/drpeyamTeespring merch: teespring.com/stores/dr-peyam
Two complex solutions in x^2021=x^2020+1 Dr Peyam 2021-12-31 | Finding roots of an equation with 2021 and 2020. Solve some roots of x^2021 = x^2020 + 1 using modular arithmetic, difference of cubes, and some complex numbers. See how this equation is related to the unit circle in the complex plane and to Euler's formula. It even involves quadratic equations from 2021 and radicals and might be related to an important math paper.
