In learning Mathematics, prioritize understanding the definitions first using examples if needed. Then, understand what the theorems are saying. Finally, understand the proofs on why a theorem should be true (analogous to the three pass approach)
-
The Ansatz Technique pertains to solving a problem using an educated guess or assumption about the solution which may later be verified to be part of the solution.
-
Problem Solving is applicable to all of mathematics.

Let
be a set of real numbers. The geometric mean is defined as follows: -
Brouwer’s Fixed Point Theorem - If
is a continuous function from the domain to itself, then there exists at least one value for which . -
Kakutani’s Fixed Point Theorem - A correspondence
has a fixed point if four conditions are satisfied is a non-empty, compact, and convex subset of is non-empty for all is convex for all has a closed graph.

A Bipartite Network Projection is an operation for simplifying a Bipartite Graph.
Let
be bipartitions of the bipartite graph. Then, its projection on * is defined as a graph whose nodes are the same as the vertices of , and two nodes are connected if and only if they are linked to the same node in . A similar projection on
can also be defined. -
