... The main periodicity in the Sun 's activity is the 11-year cycle called the solar cycle. ... During the cycle, changes occur in the Sun's internal magnetic field and in the surface disturbance level. ... At the beginning of a cycle the solar magnetic field resembles a dipole which axis is aligned with Sun's rotation axis. ... The sunspot number - and Sun's activity - is at maximum in the middle of a cycle, when the Sun's internal magnetic field is most chaotic. ... Space Physics Text Book of Oulu ...

... A (real) function of $n$ (real) variables is said to be skew-symmetric , if it changes sign whenever any two variables are interchanged: f(x_1,...,x_i,...,x_j,...,x_n) = -f(x_1,...,x_j,...,x_i,...x_n). A skew-symmetric function $f(x_1,...,x_n)$ is decomposable , if there exist functions of one variable $f_1$, ..., $f_n$ such that f(x_1,...,x_n) = \det\Vert f_i(x_j)\Vert_{i,j=1}^n. Problem 1. Find a criterion that a given skew-symmetric function $f(x_1,...,x_n)$ be decomposable. ...
