Have been doing mathematics as a hobby for several years. Completed my MSc in Mathematics with the Open University in Oct 2012 which is my first degree in this area.
Now taking a break and looking for a PhD topic, possibly starting in 2014. My interests are still rather dispersed covering complex analysis, differential geometry, PDE, conformal field theory

Solve $x=y\frac{dy}{dx}-\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^{2}$ Check out this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clairaut's_equation |

Solve $x=y\frac{dy}{dx}-\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^{2}$ yes, that is precisely how it works. I have to admit I have not carried out the complete calculation, but this is the general outcome of this method; generally the explicit solution will be rarely possible |

Understanding an integration In this case we are dealing with a singular function and the singularity is placed exactly at the end of the interval, therefore we cannot simply throw it away as it makes finite difference to the value of the integral. Therefore, I took a complementary approach showing that adding a small neighbourhood does not alter the value much, because the contribution from the regular part of the integrand is negligible |

Prove that $\left (\frac{a^2 + b^2 +c^2}{a+b+c} \right) ^ {(a+b+c)} > a^a b^b c^c$ wasn't me but I guess because the linked page is no longer available |
