User:Z = z² + c

T E R M I N A T E D

I did not realize (until now) these edits: [1][2]. As much as I would like to contribute, these will clearly continue and defeats the point of further contributions. This is NOT "drama" or "attention-seeking": now leaving for solid sure for other people's well-being forever...

Feel free to go through: special:contributions/F=q(E+v^B) + special:contributions/z = z² + c and delete/revert EVERYTHING!!! Please do not talk about this or my previous account, not one letter, not on any page: "terminated" actually means it and I will not respond. Thanks. Farewell (again)...

Editors

Admins

for their continual encouraged support during and after the incident. =) Other editors can and will assume it was only for

lying disruption,
the incident never happened,
it was all for "vain sympathy and attention seeking",

fact is that it was not - up to their entitled opinions.

First content ever on previous page

Physics and (applied) Mathematics are awesome.

Mathematical ascii: Names I wanted but failed...

E×H^T<+|0|−>↑↓∫∫dz×Φ^√dΣ<∞>

+xTZ-=y(E+H^T)

lets render these in LaTeX:

$E\times H\wedge T\langle +|0|-\rangle \uparrow \downarrow \iint \mathrm {d} z\times \Phi \wedge {\sqrt {}}\mathrm {d} \Sigma \langle \infty \rangle$

$+xTZ-=y\left(E+H\wedge T\right)$

Background

Currently an undergraduate in mathematical physics, 2nd/3rd year transition (mid 2012).

Interests: INTENSE interest in physics and maths. Intend to become a researcher in mathematical physics after graduation and pHD. Maybe even develop my own theory someday, incorporating general relativity, quantum mechanics and field theory, and chaos theory into a grand framework describing all waves, particles, and fields for all spacetime using generalized dynamics (i.e. generalized coordinates, momenta, Lagrangians, action principle etc)... Although it appears to be VERY UNLIKLEY - I will NEVER give up!!!... =)

I will contribute to WP as silently as possible, given the incident.

Favourite equations

I am a formula freak. Who says its sad to have favourite equations? Following are a variety of my favourite fundamental eqations.

Favourite equations

Lorentz force

Including Monopoles (Wb) (new elementary particle!)

${\begin{aligned}{\frac {\mathrm {d} \mathbf {p} }{\mathrm {d} t}}&=q_{e}\left(\mathbf {E} +\mathbf {v} \times \mathbf {B} \right)\\&+{\frac {q_{m}}{\mu _{0}}}\left(\mathbf {B} -\mathbf {v} \times \mathbf {E} /c^{2}\right)\\\end{aligned}}$

General uncertainty principle

$\sigma (A)\sigma (B)={\frac {1}{2}}|\langle [{\hat {A}},{\hat {B}}]\rangle |$

Practice/recommendations on WP

Unfortunately I am very fussy on notation... It is important to get it right since maths is a language. Here are my recommendations/preferences for maths notation/fonts in compliance with WP (as far as I can tell) and sufficiently common within the physics/maths literature (obviously variations are enormous).

Maths notation
HTML, LaTeX, etc...
Use html and LaTeX together, not {{template:math}} Use html for simple inline symbols, not LaTeX. Use LaTeX for displayed formulae, with an indent (one colon : ), number them if needed using {{template:NumBlk}}. No spaces for indents, which leaves a horrible dotted line box. Use colour boxes using {{template:equation box 1}} for main equations (subject of whole article).
Vectors, matrices, tensors...
Matrices and tensors can be written in bold capital, sans serif, double underarrow/double underscore/whatever, the list could go on and on depending on the author's preference. I am not saying sans serif should become dominant in WP, and that all sources use sans serif, again it’s only an alternative font for editors to use in the odd cases when different fonts are used. Obviously we can't use sans serif all the way through an article (unless LaTeX is not used). Given that we should use the same notation styles in the literature, this should not be done anyway, so people can and should just use the defualt fonts in the LeTeX rendering. I would suggest that in Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Mathematics#Notational conventions we write something along these lines, if there is much request for usage of sans serif. Vectors: capital or lowercase, plus underline (perhaps for tuples) ${\underline {x}}=(x_{1},x_{2}\cdots ),\quad {\underline {Z}}=(Z_{1},Z_{2}\cdots )$ , or arrow/bold (for "geometric/physical" vectors/vector fields associated with a direction): ${\vec {r}}=x{\hat {e}}_{x}+y{\hat {e}}_{y}+z{\hat {e}}_{z},\quad \mathbf {F} =F_{1}\mathbf {e} _{1}+F_{2}\mathbf {e} _{2}+F_{3}\mathbf {e} _{3}$ , of course either case is usual and interchangeable. However sources also use lowercase sans serif for row/column vectors: ${\mathsf {q}}={\begin{pmatrix}q_{1}\\q_{2}\\\vdots \\q_{n}\\\end{pmatrix}}\quad {\mathsf {q}}^{\mathrm {T} }={\begin{pmatrix}q_{1}&q_{2}&\cdots &q_{n}\\\end{pmatrix}}$ so I don't know if people would use this in conjunction with sans serif matrices... Matrices/dyadics/2nd order tensors: capital and bold $\mathbf {A} ={\begin{pmatrix}A_{11}&A_{12}&\cdots &A_{1m}\\A_{21}&A_{22}&\cdots &A_{2m}\\\vdots &\vdots &\ddots &\vdots \\A_{n1}&A_{n2}&\cdots &A_{nm}\\\end{pmatrix}}$ or bold/non-bold sans serif ${\mathsf {A}}={\begin{pmatrix}A_{11}&A_{12}&\cdots &A_{1m}\\A_{21}&A_{22}&\cdots &A_{2m}\\\vdots &\vdots &\ddots &\vdots \\A_{n1}&A_{n2}&\cdots &A_{nm}\\\end{pmatrix}},\quad {\mathsf {B}}^{\mathrm {T} },{\boldsymbol {\mathsf {M}}}$ (presumably the former may be preferable). The exceptions to these are if the context simply uses italics as though they were scalars (see the Dirac matrices $\gamma ^{\mu }$ in the Dirac equation or Pauli matrices $\sigma _{i}$ ). Tensors in general: use bold sans serif, as in ${\boldsymbol {\mathsf {T}}}=T^{ij}\mathbf {e} _{i}\otimes \mathbf {e} _{j}$ rather than just bold or bold-italic $\mathbf {T} ,{\boldsymbol {T}}$ , and not blackboard bold... as currently used in the Navier–Stokes equations: $\rho \left({\frac {\partial \mathbf {v} }{\partial t}}+\mathbf {v} \cdot \nabla \mathbf {v} \right)=-\nabla p+\nabla \cdot \mathbb {T} +\mathbf {f} ,$ which could be written: $\rho \left({\frac {\partial \mathbf {v} }{\partial t}}+\mathbf {v} \cdot \nabla \mathbf {v} \right)=-\nabla p+\nabla \cdot {\boldsymbol {\mathsf {T}}}+\mathbf {f} ,$ Standard sets: (real, complex numbers etc) use blackboard bold as usual: $\mathbb {R} ,\mathbb {C}$ , rather than ordinary bold $\mathbf {R} ,\mathbf {C}$ as sometimes used, which would be reserved for vectors/matrices. In this way, ambiguity is prevented, since The lower case "l" (ell) for (say) a vector will not be in sans serif, but usual serif (and preferably curly) ${\boldsymbol {\ell }},\mathbf {l}$ , or even ${\vec {\ell }},{\vec {l}},{\underline {\ell }},{\underline {l}}$ . The identity operator/matrix written as $\mathbf {I} ,{\mathsf {I}}$ next to other letters should not be confused for a vertical bar $\|$ such as $\mathbf {Ix} ,{\mathsf {I}}\mathbf {x}$ , also $\|\mathbf {Ix} \|,\|{\mathsf {I}}\mathbf {x} \|$ . For statements like: ${\mathsf {I}}\cdot \mathbf {v} =\mathbf {v} ,\quad {\boldsymbol {\mathsf {I}}}\cdot \mathbf {v} =\mathbf {v}$ in tensors in curvilinear coordinates, it should be clear that " ${\mathsf {I}}$ is the identity map" is not a "misplaced bar" (or whatever): $\|,\ \\|$ ... Tensor equations (without resort to indices) can be written ${\boldsymbol {\mathsf {G}}}=8\pi {\boldsymbol {\mathsf {T}}},\quad \mathbf {L} ={\boldsymbol {\mathsf {I}}}\cdot {\boldsymbol {\omega }}$ rather than $\mathbf {G} =8\pi \mathbf {T} ,{\boldsymbol {G}}=8\pi {\boldsymbol {T}},\quad \mathbf {L} =\mathbf {I} \cdot {\boldsymbol {\omega }},{\boldsymbol {L}}={\boldsymbol {I}}\cdot {\boldsymbol {\omega }}$ where the first may be confused for a vector equation, the second is less obvious for which quantities are vectors or tensors for someone who doesn't know. (The equations should obviously be clarified in the context anyway, but the notation may appear inconsistent for some, and it would be more obvious and followable for the reader if bold serif was for vectors, bold sans serif for tenors). Anyway that's how I propose to use sans serif with everything else, if used at all... I will not use it myself, unless this becomes accepted (so to speak, even then only very occasionally).

Outside of WP

Wouldn't it be awesome if the Russian Cyrillic, Arabic and perhaps even the Japanese alphabets could be used in algebra, just like Greek? I do this in my own scrap calculations, but not in actual practice (except for Japanese) ... =(
