Could you sketch a proof starting from some definition of the operation product of integers as "repeated addition" without using the distributive property, which would imply that we already have another binary operation besides
36.
by mnl 6y ago
Precisely, you're not repeating p(x) q(x)-times, you've used that p(x) is a linear combination of monomials and then the distributive property of Z[x]. Now, you could argue that this is exactly a way to "add repeatedly",

A polynomial is a polynomial, a decimal representation of a real number is a decimal representation of a real number, and your representation of complex numbers has funny properties once you begin exponentiating that. I'd like to see h

Without the distributive property you have two magmas in general for the same set that don't see each other. I'm not sure what your point is. When you have two binary operations you need some sort of distributive property to build

Repeated addition that ain't... It boggles my mind that you've been studying Galois theory yet somehow try to reduce the algebraic structures associated to two binary operations to playing with one of them.

by mnl 6y ago
Yes, they are two binary operations and depending on the sets you consider and which properties you impose for those operations you have different algebraic structures. (This used to be taught at school before "modern mathematics"

Oxygen, for instance, comes from supernovae too, so following this implied line of reasoning also would water. I don't think the question was about nucleosynthesis and certainly supernovae don't eject salts, they form much later a

Probably, but then HN commenters could reduce this tendency of stating that whole scientific disciplines don't know what they're doing/are full of deluded morons. Particularly when it comes to physics. At some point you have

Well, maybe the thing is you just don't know anything about it. Current dark matter concepts are 40 years old, not over a hundred (again, Wikipedia is not a substitute for an education). And we have detected indeed a very common kind o

I fail to understand how your particular case works. Not having a horse in the race but just a piece of paper you don't care about doesn't help you to make a point, which is what exactly?

Me neither. Coming up with a film like Mank in 2020 is nothing short of miraculous. (Yes, it's a film, it's not a documentary, it can tweak facts if it needs to). While I was watching it in awe, gleeful at the I don't have t

Sorry about the acronyms, they seem to seep through. That's right, it's chromodynamics, a conventional term after the whimsical naming of the symmetry of the strong interaction.

That's the Hossenfelder take on the scientific method for you: whereby you make the experiments to confirm the theory. Which is fantastic because if science had ever worked that way you would be done with all experiments as the sensibl
