... Как придать точный смысл утверждению, что поверхности двумерны, а пространство трехмерно? ... Один из них использует индукцию: пространство трехмерно, потому что стены комнат двумерны (Пуанкаре). ... Эти подходы эквивалентны и тесно связаны с теоремой Брауэра о неподвижной точке. Мы обсудим различные варианты теоремы Брауэра и ее следствия, такие, например, как "теорема о еже" (ежа нельзя причесать) и теорема о том, что n-мерное пространство R n действительно n-мерно. ...

... Documentation . ... I've added in a few more things to the documentation mainly in the area of error handling. ... Thanks to Steven Schoch <schoch@sheba.arc.nasa.gov> we now have a version of telnet and telnetd that can (as long as you enable it with a new server and client option) enable a user to telnet to the telnetd and not be asked for a password if they send a certificate that is signed by a trusted CA (which you naturally configure yourself) for those users in the new /etc/ssl.users file. ...

Static Fourier spectrometers are often used for spectral measurements of the ionosphere emissions. There are two main advantages of Fourier spectrometers (FS) - large geometric factor and high spectral resolution; these parameters are two orders better than for grating spectral instruments. ... In scanning Fourier spectrometer optical and electric modulation of signal is used to avoid this problem, for static Fourier spectrometer there are no such ways. ...
