comment norm of a linear operator
For a fixed $x$, $\|A(x)\| = \|A(\frac{x}{\|x\|})\| \|x\| \leq \|A\|\|x\|$. The first step uses linearity of the operator and the second step uses definition of the operator norm. This is not a complete proof, one has to consider some case, but the gist of the proof is just this much.

comment Finding a vector orthogonal to a subspace
What is wrong with your finding x such that Ax = 0 idea? I see it as completely correct way of going about this.

comment Is the set of all straight lines in the plane whose slope and y-intercept are integers countable?
If f is a bijective map from N to P, then even $(m, n) \mapsto (f(m), f(n))$ should be bijective from NxN to PxP.

comment Prove by using Pigeon Hole Principle
@chihiroasleaf Said differently, consider the set {3, 33, 333, 3333, ...., (3 repeated k times)}. Now, any number when divided by k can give remainders between 0 and k - 1. Now, divide each number in the given set with k and observer the remainders that they give. What happens if one of the remainders is zero and what happens if none of the remainders are zero?

comment How variance is defined?
What you propose is another way of measuring spread - it is called mean absolute deviation.

You just need Jensen's Inequality. Check out @mike 's comment here - math.stackexchange.com/questions/211633/…

@Norbert, after reading Martin's answer I see how you made that connection :-) I was going through the link you suggested several times, honestly though I wasn't smart enough to see the similarities :-).
