| Thomas Walker wrote: Your equation: SUM(n=2, inf) SUM(m=2, inf) 1 / n^m = 1 Solving for the inner geometric series gives a telescoping sum of the form, SUM (n=2,inf) [ 1/(n-1) - 1/n ] Since all the terms after the first cancel each other, the series simplifies to the first term which is 1. You can also relate your equation to the Riemann zeta function by SUM(n=2, inf) ( zeta(n) - 1 ) = 1 and to the prime numbers in general through, SUM(m=2)^inf ( -1 + MUL (n=1)^inf SUM(k=0)^inf ( 1 / (p_n)^(km) ) ) ) = 1 where (p_n)^x = the n'th prime raised to power x |

| It is a very interesting equation, seeing how it has been derived and proved from Binomial theorem.

| Dear Researcher, Thank you. Can we think of an application in Signal Processing for this matrix.

Walkers equatino clearly has to do with hiking. Yesterday, I went on a hike into potential wilderness areas to take pics, get info, blah blah. (At least we picked the one day in the last 3 weeks when it didn't rain - at least during the day). To pick the right day, use walker's equation. |
