Networks Hold the Key to a Decades-Old Problem About Waves

Mathematicians are still trying to understand fundamental properties of the Fourier transform, one of their most ubiquitous and powerful tools. A new result marks an exciting advance toward that goal.

Blocked by person refusing to believe a #Mathematics #textbook and #proofs because of a random #Wikipedia article that doesn't cite any Maths textbooks, and in fact has proofs in it that actually contradict the conclusion! (the series 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, 0.0001,... never reaches zero, even as the series approaches infinity - it's a hyperbola with an asymptote of 0 - which you think would be self-evident, and yet here we are) Welcome to the #disinformation age! 😡

Theorem of the Day (February 3, 2026) : Stirling’s Approximation
Source : Theorem of the Day / Robin Whitty

Comprehensive presentation of the "Theorem of the Day", starting with a statement of this theorem.

Stirling’s Approximation : For positive integers n, the value of the factorial function n! is given asymptotically by 
n! ≈ √(τn) n^n e^(−n), 
where τ = 2π.

“Students learn new concepts best when instruction is clear, structured and supported with examples, practice, feedback and review over time. This approach is not “old-fashioned.” It reflects how the brain builds knowledge and stores it for long-term use. Knowledge frees up thinking. Fluency makes problem-solving possible.”
