We study in this paper the continuous and discrete Euler-Lagrange equations arising from a quadratic lagrangian. Those equations may be thought as numerical schemes and may be solved through a matrix based framework. When the lagrangian is…

In [1], an operator was introduced which acts parallel to the Riemann-Liouville differintegral on a transformation of the space of real analytic functions and commutes with itself. This paper aims to extend the technique - and its defining…
We create a sequence version of calculus. First, we define equivalence, some fundamental operations, differential, and integral for sequences. Then, we propose sequence versions of identity function, power function, exponential function,…
The theory of differential equations has an arithmetic analogue in which derivatives of functions are replaced by Fermat quotients of numbers. Many classical differential equations (Riccati, Weierstrass, Painlev\'{e}, etc.) were previously…
In this short note, we provide a calculation of the Euler characteristic of a finite homotopy colimit of finite cell complexes, which depends only on the Euler characteristics of each space and resembles Mobius inversion. Versions of the…

Euler's inequality $R\geq 2r$ can be investigated in a novel way by using implicit loci in GeoGebra. Some unavoidable side effects of the implicit locus computation introduce unexpected algebraic curves. By using a mixture of symbolic and…
