what does "semi-stable" elliptic curve mean? How does it differ or same from elliptic curve? As a photographer, I find it really interesting about Fermat's Last Theorem that something as abstract as number theory problem could have visual structure. Beautiful!
@@cepatwaras The property of being "semi-stable" applies to elliptic curves defined over number fields or non-archimedean local fields. It means roughly that after reducing your curve modulo p (so that you have a curve over a finite field), the resulting curve is non-singular or has at worst an ordinary double point. This is probably not a very helpful explanation but see Silverman's book _Arithmetic of Elliptic Curves_. Much more general versions of "stable" and "semi-stable" exist for curves, their models, and their reductions in the language of scheme theory (see Qing Liu's _Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic Curves_). It's these ideas that are paramount in Wiles' proof where one considered the Tate module of the Jacobian of a curve which induces a Galois representation, and semi-stability plays a crucial role here.

At the two points (gamma, delta) or (alpha, delta), the slope of the tangent lines satisfy the property dx/dy=0, so I just implicit differentiate the equation to find dx/dy=(2y-1)/(3x^2-1), and set y=1/2.
My take on part 2 (using calculus): We can differintiate both sides as such: dy/dx (2y - 1) = 3x^2 - 1. Dividing 2y - 1 both sides, we have dy/dx = (3x^2 - 1)/(2y - 1). Since y value on the graph has an undefined slope (vertical), we just set the denominator of dy/dx equal to 0: 2y - 1 = 0. Thus, we have y = 1/2.

Hi love ur vids, I had a request. Could you plz make some videos on the STEP Exam. It is the Cambridge entrance exam for High School students and the questions in it are absolutely brutal. There are 3 papers in total and they increase in difficulty from STEP 1 being the easiest and STEP 3 is the hardest. I think you will really enjoy some of the questions since in my opinion, having looked at both the JEE advance maths questions and STEP 3, I would say that a lot of the STEP 3 are actually even harder than Jee so plz give it a go. But if you want the really hard ones then do STEP 3. STEP 2 AND 1 are still hard but not as hard. Also, if you want the hardest ones, even from STEP 3, then there is a mark scheme which has all the answers of the questions from the past years and towards the end of that, you can go to STEP 3 and they tell you which questions were done well or poorly. Hence which were hardest and which were easiest.

Hey blackpenredpen! Can u solve the following integral: ∫(x³ - 4x² + 3x + 6)/√(x² + 3x + 5) dx evaluated from 0 to 4. I challenge you to solve this without using any of the hyperbolic functions or their inverses... use the logarithm instead... By the way, great video as always!! I am a huge fan of yours!

(there are some circular reasoning that I'm not energized enough to resolve) since the three numbers already exist on the same horizontal line y=0.5, replace y with 0.5 in the original equation and move everything to one side gives x^3-x+0.25=0. replace the 0 with a new y gives a cubic equation that has the correct roots. the equation of the circle can be written as y=sqrt( (b-a)^2/4+(x-(b+a)/2)^2 )+0.5 which can be simplified to sqrt( - (x-a) (x-b) )+0.5 sub it into the "y" of the original problem can probably yield the correct answer. however, the amount of calculation already feels like this is the wrong path. however, by continuing the next step, the roots actually cancel out nicely to 0 = x^{3}+x^{2}-(1+a+b)x+(ab+0.25). then I got stuck since I don't know the cubic roots formula. so maybe this is indeed the wrong path. try again and define the circle as a function of y(right half) might work, but i really need to be doing my homework by now.
Because you are finding the distance from beta to alpha. To do this you minus alpha from beta. Then divide by two for radius. Like if you had 2 and -1. The distance would be 2-(-1)= 3 . Alpha + beta / 2 finds the arithmetic average between the two points with corresponds to a number on the x axis which is the distance from the y axis.
for part 3 you can say that if (a,b) is on the curve then (a, 1-b) is on the curve and the distance to the line y=1/2 from each is abs(b-1/2) without writing any equations. Once I wrote it it is probably not faster than what you did.

I did the Oxford maths entrance exam in 1993, and scored 98% on the pure paper. The funny thing was that loads of other people got very similar marks. They’d just made the paper a little too easy / similar to previous years.

The margins can be quite small at this level for a bunch of pretty well prepared candidates.

Can you guys solve this, this is from peterson related rates problem one ship is sailing south at a rate of 5 knots, and another ship is sailing east at a rate of 10 knots. at 2 P.

If the quadratic equation can be solved use the formula, namely the formula abc. can cubic equations also be solved using formulas ?, if you can use what formulas?
I'm just guessing at this point (only 2.38 into the video) but y=delta is a line of symmetry and on the lhs we have y^2-y=y*(y-1) so there is a symmetry mid way between y=0 and y=1. (because if you think about it (swapping y and y-1 would leave the equation unchanged)) (lol not only was i right but answered the next question as well.)
For gamma since the curve is symmetric across the value of gamma, I plug in b for x. Then I solve for both y's. The average of those y's is gamma. And you get gamma=1/2.
My take on part 2 with some calculus: Let g : (-1,1) -> R^2 be a one to-one differentiable path with the image of g completely within the given curve, furthermore suppose that g' is never zero, and suppose g(0)=(x_0,δ) where x_0 is one of α,β,γ. Note: since F(x,y)=x^3-x-y^2+y is continuously differentiable and ∇F(x,y)=(3x^2-1, -2y+1), we have that the conditions for the implicit function theorem (for extraction of one of the variables as a function of the second) hold everywhere except for the points where y=1/2, x=±√1/3, in particular those points are not on the curve, and so such a path does indeed exist for any point on the curve that we choose. Now after using a paragraph to justify the existence of g, we know by geometric arguments that at the point g(0) we have that g'(0)=(0,y'(0)) for some nonzero y'(0), but writing g(t)=(x(t),y(t)) and differentiating the curve's equation (which holds for the image of g): (2y(t)-1)y'(t)=(3x(t)^2-1)x'(t) and in particular (2y(0)-1)y'(0)=0 and since y'(0) is nonzero, we have y(0)=1/2, so δ=1/2
Why is my math soooo rigorous even in high school? Like soooo many epsilon delta proofs (we use alpha and beta instead of epsilon and delta xD) and many techniches for reasoning, not to mention the EXTREMELY mind bending geometry, our math curriculum is originally french, so maybe that's why.
Isn't it much easier for proofing the symmetry to replace y with 1/2 - (y - 1/2)? Simplify to 1 - y. f(x, y) := y^2 - y = x^3 - x. Then f(x, 1 - y) is (1 - y)^2 - (1 - y) = x^2 - x => 1 - 2y + y^2 - 1 + y x^2 - x => y^2 - y = x^3 - x
He's using (ay + b)^2 = (a^2)(y^2) + 2aby + b^2 in reverse, picking values of a and b that will end up as (y^2 - y) plus some constant. So a^2 must be 1 and 2ab must be -1. Choose a = 1 and b = -1/2 to satisfy this, so b^2 is 1/4. Then observe that (y - 1/2)^2 = (y^2 - y + 1/4) according to the formula I gave in the beginning, so that's what you want to achieve on the right-hand side.
I think I have a cleaner explanation of why the curve is symmetric about the line. For any point (X,Y) on the curve we know Y^2 - Y = X^2 - X. Now consider the point (X,Y') which is (X,Y)'s reflection about the line y = 1/2. We have (Y + Y')/2 = 1/2 since the midpoint must be on the line, so Y' = 1 - Y. Therefore Y'^2 - Y' = (1 - Y)^2 - (1- Y) = 1 - 2Y + Y^2 - 1 + Y = Y^2 - Y = X^2 - X. So the point (X,Y') also lies on the curve and hence the curve is symmetric about y = 1/2.
Assumes you don’t have a level further maths knowledge and also you have to clearly show where the idea of the sum of roots and how it relates to polynomials come from
hmmm strictly speaking you didn't "show" that it interesects at two more points, you just assumed it. I mean it's pretty obvious but you made simply no argument for it.

set y = 0. x intecpt values∈{ -1,0,1} . due to the restrictions, the values are 1,-1.
set x = 0. y intercept values∈{ 0,1}
y is a parabola, since parabola's vortex is midway between the y-intercepts, the vortex of the graph is symmetric on the line y=0.5
since parabolas are symmetric on two sides of the vortex and the other side is independent of y, the graph is symmetric on the line y=0.5. (there are some circular reasoning that I'm not energized enough to resolve)
since the three numbers already exist on the same horizontal line y=0.5, replace y with 0.5 in the original equation and move everything to one side gives x^3-x+0.25=0. replace the 0 with a new y gives a cubic equation that has the correct roots.
the equation of the circle can be written as y=sqrt( (b-a)^2/4+(x-(b+a)/2)^2 )+0.5 which can be simplified to sqrt( - (x-a) (x-b) )+0.5
sub it into the "y" of the original problem can probably yield the correct answer. however, the amount of calculation already feels like this is the wrong path.
however, by continuing the next step, the roots actually cancel out nicely to 0 = x^{3}+x^{2}-(1+a+b)x+(ab+0.25). then I got stuck since I don't know the cubic roots formula. so maybe this is indeed the wrong path.

Because you are finding the distance from beta to alpha. To do this you minus alpha from beta. Then divide by two for radius. Like if you had 2 and -1. The distance would be 2-(-1)= 3 . Alpha + beta / 2 finds the arithmetic average between the two points with corresponds to a number on the x axis which is the distance from the y axis.

Note: since F(x,y)=x^3-x-y^2+y is continuously differentiable and ∇F(x,y)=(3x^2-1, -2y+1), we have that the conditions for the implicit function theorem (for extraction of one of the variables as a function of the second) hold everywhere except for the points where y=1/2, x=±√1/3, in particular those points are not on the curve, and so such a path does indeed exist for any point on the curve that we choose.
Now after using a paragraph to justify the existence of g, we know by geometric arguments that at the point g(0) we have that g'(0)=(0,y'(0)) for some nonzero y'(0), but writing g(t)=(x(t),y(t)) and differentiating the curve's equation (which holds for the image of g):
(2y(t)-1)y'(t)=(3x(t)^2-1)x'(t)
and in particular
(2y(0)-1)y'(0)=0
and since y'(0) is nonzero, we have y(0)=1/2, so δ=1/2
Shouldn't the last answer be in terms of delta?
Why is my math soooo rigorous even in high school? Like soooo many epsilon delta proofs (we use alpha and beta instead of epsilon and delta xD) and many techniches for reasoning, not to mention the EXTREMELY mind bending geometry, our math curriculum is originally french, so maybe that's why.

Isn't it much easier for proofing the symmetry to replace y with 1/2 - (y - 1/2)? Simplify to 1 - y. f(x, y) := y^2 - y = x^3 - x. Then f(x, 1 - y) is (1 - y)^2 - (1 - y) = x^2 - x => 1 - 2y + y^2 - 1 + y x^2 - x => y^2 - y = x^3 - x
Why not use a change of variables in part 2 and reason about symmetry about y=0 instead?

Why do you choose add 1/4 ? Please explaind me i don't understand that
He's using (ay + b)^2 = (a^2)(y^2) + 2aby + b^2 in reverse, picking values of a and b that will end up as (y^2 - y) plus some constant. So a^2 must be 1 and 2ab must be -1. Choose a = 1 and b = -1/2 to satisfy this, so b^2 is 1/4. Then observe that (y - 1/2)^2 = (y^2 - y + 1/4) according to the formula I gave in the beginning, so that's what you want to achieve on the right-hand side.
hello, 1^x=-2 is solvable?
Parts 1 2 and 3 were a lot easier than I first expected, you just have to think about it a bit. I am very surprised
Can you please do IIT JEE Advanced 2020 paper analysis. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hey why dont u try some IIT JEE ADVANCED Qs....it will fun to see u solve them
Cambridge offer holder here, and I couldn't solve this! Only got as far as part ii
I think I have a cleaner explanation of why the curve is symmetric about the line. For any point (X,Y) on the curve we know Y^2 - Y = X^2 - X. Now consider the point (X,Y') which is (X,Y)'s reflection about the line y = 1/2. We have (Y + Y')/2 = 1/2 since the midpoint must be on the line, so Y' = 1 - Y. Therefore Y'^2 - Y' = (1 - Y)^2 - (1- Y) = 1 - 2Y + Y^2 - 1 + Y = Y^2 - Y = X^2 - X. So the point (X,Y') also lies on the curve and hence the curve is symmetric about y = 1/2.
Can you solve this:
log_6^x=log_3^4x
I really need it, thanks!!!
For part 5 can't you just use sum of roots?
Assumes you don’t have a level further maths knowledge and also you have to clearly show where the idea of the sum of roots and how it relates to polynomials come from
hmmm strictly speaking you didn't "show" that it interesects at two more points, you just assumed it. I mean it's pretty obvious but you made simply no argument for it.
They gave that to you using the coordinates.
I Think You Should Attempt JEE Advanced Maths Section and GATE Maths That Would Be Fun As JEE ADVANCED Is For High School Student
Even this is for high school students
I love you

Evaluate integral from zero to infinity xdx/ 1+e^x challenging question
you should have used ξ we accually use it more often in greece and it would have made your life harder
