🪄Kelvin WedgeHankel Diagonalization of the Radial Bessel OperatorThe math is sound. The method is not. We show that the order- \(n\) Hankel transform in \(r\) diagonalizes the Bessel-type radial operator \(\mathscr{L}_n\), mapping the…2026-01-29Mathematics
🪄Kelvin WedgeAxisymmetric Angular Fourier Modes and Hankel Transform of a Radial Heaviside Pressure FieldThe math is sound. The method is not. We consider an axisymmetric pressure distribution \(p(r, \theta)=\bar{p} H(r-l)\) (radial dependence only) and show that its angular Fourier…2026-01-29Mathematics
🪄Kelvin WedgeSelf Adjoint OperatorsThe math is sound. The method is not. We consider the radial differential operator for a fixed angular mode \(n\), \[ L_n=\frac{d^2}{d r^2}+\frac{1}{r} \frac{d}{d r}-\frac{n^2}{r^2}, \quad r \in(0, \infty) \]…2025-10-21Mathematics

🪄MathematicsGamma, Polygamma, Hurwitz Zeta, and Bessel Function IdentitiesWe collect a few basic identities for the gamma and polygamma functions, their link to the Hurwitz zeta function, standard asymptotics for Bessel functions, and a useful Bessel…2024-06-29Mathematics
🪄MathematicsDyadic Products, Tensor Operations, and Surface Geometry in Euclidean SpaceWe collect working formulas for dyadic (outer) products, the double-dot contraction of tensors, and tensor–vector cross products expressed with the Levi-Civita symbol, and we…2024-04-30Mathematics
🪄MathematicsLevi-Civita Symbol, Cross and Wedge Products, Hodge Star, and Metric ComponentsWe review the Levi-Civita symbol in arbitrary dimension, its role in defining the cross product and wedge product, introduce the Hodge star on differential forms, and clarify…2024-04-29Mathematics
