As far as I know Rudin focuses on Fourier analysis on locally compact Abelian groups. There's been plenty of attention paid to doing Fourier analysis on other objects, especially compact Lie groups or symmetric spaces. Of course there

I don't think there's any interesting difference with different bases. Usually the base you represent stuff in is a relatively small number (because using very large bases is already wildly inefficient). I think it only usually ma

I don't think it's accurate to say the courts were in opposition to the PS government. PiS appointed lots of their own judges in their years in power who often decided along lines that PiS wanted. The biggest example of course bei

I don't think it's reasonable to assume all EU governments (or even all Polish governments) will act the same as PiS do/did.

I think calling something a Germanic language is a bit different to calling it a German language. I completely agree with your point about a "Germanic language" but I disagree about "a German language".

Not exclusively. It has elements from Hebrew and Aramaic (of course) as well as from various Slavic languages. A big chunk of it derives from High German but not all.

On 64 bit computers you've been able to use 128 bit unsigned ints as a gcc extension for a long time now and the bit twiddling stuff works exactly as you'd expect. The relevant types are __int128 / unsigned __int128. Clang ha

I don't think this extra claim about polynomials which are a product of a complex linear term and a polynomial with real coefficients is true. Let a be distributed uniformly in (-1,1) and let b be distributed uniformly in the unit disk

This reasoning doesn't quite work. If you're multiplying a polynomial P by a linear factor L = (x-a) with a being a nonreal complex number then at least one of these statements is true 1. P does not have real coefficients 2. PL do

As far as your point in parentheses goes, I think wikipedia is either wrong or confusingly written (allowing complex factorisations of real polynomials makes what they're written consistent, but is a bit silly). See theorem (20) on pag

A polynomial of order n has n roots (real and complex). A random polynomial has roughly log(n) of those be real and n - log(n) be nonreal. For large n, log(n) is tiny compared to n, so it's very surprising that over half the time the l

Its the same because the uniform distribution over (-x,x) can be obtained by taking a random variable uniformly distributed over (-1,1) and multiplying it by x. This doesn't change anything for the question about roots because the root
