N個のベクトルすべてに直交しないベクトルを見つけられますか?
任意の有限個の非零ベクトルに対して、それらすべてに直交しないベクトルが必ず存在するという定理を、代数的・幾何学的観点から解説する。特に、次元とベクトルの本数の関係に依存しない一般的な証明を、線形代数の基本概念を用いて示す。

A blog post discusses a mathematical identity where pentagonal numbers can be expressed in terms of triangular numbers. It highlights that while examples don't typically prove theorems, in this case the identity Pn = T(2n−1) − T(n−1) holds, showing that three examples can suffice for proving certain relationships.
John D. Cook describes how a sequence of his blog posts often follows a hidden thread, beginning with a post about the mathematical approximation exp(−x²) ≈ (1 + cos(sin(x) + x))/2, which some commenters incorrectly attributed solely to a first-order Taylor expansion.
The nth pentagonal number Pn follows the formula Pn = (3n² − n)/2 for positive integer n. For non-positive integer n, the same formula defines a generalized pentagonal number.
Partial fraction decomposition is commonly introduced in calculus as a technique for integrating rational functions by breaking P(x)/Q(x) into simpler terms. However, the post suggests that this method has applications beyond integration that are often overlooked in a typical calculus class.
