Hello everybody

In a course on numerical calculation in seismology (with jupyter notebook but I tried to adapt them in Maple), we use the Lagrangian interpolation:

First, have done the calculation and get the right answer. But I had to do it manually in Maple (see document below for the question and my solution. The question is describe more explicitly. What I want to do is to make Maple do it automatically and taking into account that there is the restriction i<>j. Then when the lagrangian is calculated, it will be easy to calculate u bar.

Thank you in advance for your help.

In the following Solution_3.3_page_103.mw, after equation (15), I would like to use the clickable functionality to obtain the equations A, B, C, and D. I had to manually use copy-paste to obtain those equations. Because when I used the equation manipulator to square both sides, it started to be a mess.  After that, I was able to continue for (16) and the rest to obtain finally the speed of the muon neutrino.

P.S. If you see something wrong in the calculation, I am always interested to correct them.

Thank you in advance.

>(solve(0 < M^2 - 4*m^2, M) assuming (0 < M, 0 < m))

>with(plots):

>inequal(0 < M^2 - 4*m^2, M > 2*m, m = 1 .. 5)

I know that it won't work:

Error, (in plots:-inequal) invalid input: Plot:-Inequality expects its 2nd argument, r1, to be of type name = range(And(realcons, Not(infinity))), but received 2*m < M

I even try

>inequal(0 < M^2 - 4*m^2, m = 1 .. 5, 2*m < M)

But is it possible to do it another way. Could it be an added functionality.

Of course, if I write values like this:

>inequal(0 < M^2 - 4*m^2, m = 1 .. 5, M = 2 .. 10)

I get a plot, a triangle.

Here are the inputs and output:

Why is it not possible to simplify the meter and the second (which are units).  If I do "simplify(pmin), the unit MeV becomes J and that is not what I want.  Simply said, is Maplesoft planning to include particle physics where c = h = 1 in the future version of the package "Physics"?

Until that happens, does someone knows how to give the answer in MeV/c.  The preceding problem was asking the mass of a particle in MeV/c^2.

Thank you in advance for your trouble.

Hello everyone,

I need to expand this:

>abs(u+v)^2+abs(u-v)^2

so I have as a final expressioin

>|u|^2+|v|^2=1

This is the property that has to be true so the probability is one.

>assume(u::complex, v::complex);  does not work and the simple commande

>expand() neither.  Any idea?
