    On parity of Euler quotients of factors of Wagstaff numbers

    For odd natural $n$ define the Euler quotient $E(n)=\frac{2^{\varphi(n)}-1 \bmod n^2}{n}$. If $n$ is prime then $E(n)$ is called Fermat quotient.$n$ is Wieferich number iff $E(n)=0$. There are only two Wiferich primes knownand it is an open problem if...

    On groups acting nicely on a contractible space

    Im looking for examples of groups $G$ satisfying the following hypothesis:
    $G$ acts cocompactly and admissibly on a contractible $CW$-complex $X$
    The cell stabilizers are of type $FP_\infty$

    Does a 1-Lipschitz function preserve mutual information between two random varia...

    Suppose we have a 1-Lipschitz function $f$ such that 1-Lipschitzness is preserved, with $D_A(f(X), f(Y)) \leq D_B(X, Y)$ for some metric spaces $A$ and $B$.
    Does this also imply that $I(f(X); f(Y)) = I(X;Y)$? It seems intuitive that this would be the case if the 1-lipschitz function is injective, but I don't know if this is true, so that the mutual information is preserved under such invertible transformation...

    Video lectures of mathematics courses available online for free

    It can be difficult to learn mathematics on your own from textbooks, and I often wish universities videotaped their mathematics courses and distributed them for free online. Fortunately, some universities do that (albeit to a very limited extent), and...
