  1. What is infinity divided by infinity? - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Aug 11, 2012 · I know that $\\infty/\\infty$ is not generally defined. However, if we have 2 equal infinities divided by each other, would it be 1? if we have an infinity divided by another half-as-big infinity, for

  2. I have learned that 1/0 is infinity, why isn't it minus infinity?

    An infinite number? Kind of, because I can keep going around infinitely. However, I never actually give away that sweet. This is why people say that 1 / 0 "tends to" infinity - we can't really use infinity as a …

  3. How can Cyclic groups be infinite - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Oct 4, 2020 · I am a little confused about how a cyclic group can be infinite. To provide an example, look at $\\langle 1\\rangle$ under the binary operation of addition. You can never make any negative …

  4. Koch snowflake paradox: finite area, but infinite perimeter

    Mar 8, 2018 · The Koch snowflake has finite area, but infinite perimeter, right? So if we make this snowflake have some thickness (like a cake or something), then it appears that you can fill it with …

  5. linear algebra - What can be said about the dual space of an infinite ...

    The dual space of an infinite-dimensional vector space is always strictly larger than the original space, so no to both questions. This was discussed on MO but I can't find the thread.

  6. What does it mean 'Infinite dimensional normed spaces'?

    Nov 7, 2022 · I see what you mean, so does a normed-space being infinite means that it maps a vector space to a continous interval? If this is the case how do we have a finite normed-space?

  7. How was Zeno's paradox solved using the limits of infinite series?

    You could just as easily argue that the sum of the distance is infinite so the distance will be infinitely far away. Both statements are paradoxes. But the concept of the limit of an infinite series being finite …

  8. Infinite Series $\\sum 1/(n(n+1))$ - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    Write out a few terms of the series. You should see a pattern! But first consider the finite series: $$\sum\limits_ {n=1}^ {m}\left (\frac {1} {n}-\frac {1} {n+1 ...

  9. Is there a shape with infinite area but finite perimeter?

    Dec 1, 2014 · But the circumference also defines the subset with infinite area that lays "outside" (which is a conventional concept). That other "outside shape" would be an example of a finite-perimeter …

  10. how to prove uncountable infinite pigeonhole principle?

    Nov 15, 2024 · 1 Can it be proven using the pigeonhole principle that if set A is an uncountable family of finite sets, it contains an uncountable subfamily all of whose elements have cardinality n? The idea is …
