1. ### Axiomatic set theory ZFC is inconsistent thus mathematics ends in contradiction

Axiomatic set theory ZFC is inconsistent, thus mathematics ends in contradiction: http://gamahucherpress.yellowgum.com/wp-content/uploads/MATHEMATICS.pdf Axiomatic set theory ZFC was in part developed to rid mathematics of its paradoxes, such as Russell's paradox. The axiom in ZFC developed...
2. ### My Graphing Calculator Gave Me Inconsistent Answers

I made up the function y = x^4 - 3x and looked for it's minimum. My graphing calculator said the minimum was at x = 0.90855953 (and I know this is rounded, not exact). I set the derivative = 0, solved that equation for x, and got 0.908560294 (and I know this is rounded, not exact). The two...
3. ### Show the scheme is inconsistent

Scheme for u_t = u_{xx}: u_j^{n+1}= (1-2\alpha - 2\beta)u_j^n + \alpha(u_{j+1}^n + u_{j-1}^n) + \beta(u_{j+2}^n + u_{j-2}^n) Denote \mu = \Delta t/(\Delta x)^2. Show that when \mu is a constant, that the scheme is inconsistent unless \alpha + 4\beta = \mu Show that the scheme is four-order...
4. ### Influence of inconsistent initial values on time integration

Hello everybody, I was wondering whether someone has more information on the influence of inconsistant initial conditions on solving a system of ODE's with periodic solutions using a time marching method like a 4th order Runge-Kutta scheme. The phenomenon I am studying is described by a system...
