A proof of Bell's theorem without inequalities is presented in which distant local setups do not need to be aligned, since the required perfect correlations are achieved for any local rotation of the local setups.
We present a self-contained elementary and detailed exposition of Mertens' own proof of his theorem on the divergence of the series of the reciprocals of the primes and compare it with the modern proofs. His proof contains explicit…
This article presents a clear proof of the Riemann Mapping Theorem via Riemann's method, uncompromised by any appeals to topological intuition.
A proof is given of Rosenthal's \(\ell_1\) theorem.
Wedderburn's theorem on the structure of finite dimensional semisimple algebras is proved by using minimal prerequisites.
We present a proof of the sufficiency of Rado's condition for the partition regularity of linear Diophantine equations that avoids any use of van der Waerden's theorem. The proof is based on fundamental properties that are common knowledge…
We give a proof of Fermat's little theorem which does not use nor arithmetic(Euclidean algorithm) neither algebra (group theory), but it rather employs the field of the formal power series Q((x)). The note is an example of a mathematical…
Unlike some other formal systems, the proof system Metamath has no built-in concept of "decimal number" in the sense that arbitrary digit strings are not recognized by the system without prior definition. We present a system of theorems and…
We give a new simpler proof of a theorem of Jayne and Rogers.
The Bertrand theorem concluded that; the Kepler potential, and the isotropic harmonic oscillator potential are the only systems under which all the orbits are closed. It was never stressed enough in the physical or mathematical literature…
The import of Bell's Theorem is elucidated. The theorem's proof is illustrated both heuristically and in mathematical detail in a pedagogical fashion. In the same fashion, it is shown that the proof is correct mathematically, but it doesn't…
Bohr atomic model is based on the assumption that electrons on allowed quantized orbits do not radiate. Its main results include the values of the radii of circular quantized orbits and of the hydrogen atom energy levels. Quantum mechanical…
We give a new elementary proof of Landau's Prime Ideal Theorem. The proof is an extension of Richter's proof of the Prime Number Theorem. The main result contains other results related to the equidistribution of the prime ideal counting…
If the continued fractions of two irrational numbers have a common complete quotient, then these two numbers are in the same orbit under the action of $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$. The converse is Serret's well-known theorem, but we give a…
Myriad articles are devoted to Mertens's theorem. In yet another, we merely wish to draw attention to a proof by Hardy, which uses a Tauberian theorem of Landau that "leads to the conclusion in a direct and elegant manner". Hardy's proof is…
This is an exposition, in 12 pages including all prerequisites and a generalization, of Karamata's little known elementary proof of the Landau-Ingham Tauberian theorem, a result in real analysis from which the Prime Number Theorem follows…
Bell's theorem is a fundamental result in quantum mechanics: it discriminates between quantum mechanics and all theories where probabilities in measurement results arise from the ignorance of pre-existing local properties. We give an…
This paper presents an alternative proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra that has several distinct advantages. The proof is based on simple ideas involving continuity and differentiation. Visual software demonstrations can be used to…
Two well known facts from elementary number theory are proven by using Bergman spaces.
We present an elementary proof concerning reciprocal transmittances and reflectances. The proof is direct, simple, and valid for the diverse objects that can be absorptive and induce diffraction and scattering, as long as the objects…
