True or false statements

Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}$ such that $n \geq 2$. Let $\mathcal{S}_n$ be the permutation group on $n$ letters and $\mathcal{A}_n$ be the alternating group. We also denote $\mathbb{C}^*$ the group of non zero complex numbers under multiplication. Which of the following are correct statements? For every in...

On the evaluation of the Fresnel integral

We are aware of the Fresnel integral \begin{equation} \int_0^\infty \sin x^2 \, {\rm d}x = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{\frac{\pi}{2}} \end{equation} The most common proof goes with complex analysis. Try to provide a proof with Real Analysis. There are at least $2$ proofs. The one is more elegant than the othe...

Irreducible number

Denote by $\bar{\alpha}=0.\alpha \alpha \alpha \dots $. Find all $\alpha>0$ such that

$$\frac{1}{\alpha} = 0.\bar{a}$$

On a prime summation

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$ -th prime number. Evaluate the sum

$$\mathcal{S} = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{ \log p_n}{p_n^2 -1}$$

Re: Limit of an integral

Since $\lim \limits_{x \rightarrow +\infty} f(x) =0$ the result follows immediately by making the change of variables $u=nx$ . :)

On an inequality of a product function

Let

$$f(x) = \sin x \sin (2x) \sin (4x) \cdots \sin (2^n x)$$

Prove that

$$\left| {f(x)} \right| \le \frac{2}{{\sqrt 3 }}\left| {f(\frac{\pi }{3})} \right|$$

Re: Inequality

Thank you Papapetros Vaggelis. My solution is as follows. Since $\frac{1}{x} \; , \; \frac{1}{y} \; , \; \frac{1}{z} >0$ then the numbers \[\sqrt{\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y}} \; , \; \sqrt{\frac{1}{x} +\frac{1}{z}} \; , \; \sqrt{\frac{1}{y} + \frac{1}{z}}\] could be sides of a triangle. The area of th...

Inequality

Let $x, y,z >0$ satisfying $x+y+z=1$. Prove that

\[\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{y} + \frac{1}{z} \geq \sqrt{\frac{3}{xyz}}\]
