📐 Chromatic Polynomial Properties

For any graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges: $P(G, k) = k^n - mk^{n-1} + \\ldots$ is a polynomial. For edge $e$: $P(G, k) = P(G-e, k) - P(G/e, k)$.

💡 Proposition I.48 (Converse of Pythagorean Theorem)

If in a triangle the square on one of the sides be equal to the squares on the remaining two sides of the triangle, the angle contained by the remaining two sides of the triangle is right.

📖 Definition VII.15 (Multiply)

A number is said to multiply a number when that which is multiplied is added to itself as many times as there are units in the other, and thus some number is produced.

📐 Fermat

If $p$ is prime and $\\gcd(a, p) = 1$, then $a^{p-1} \\equiv 1 \\pmod{p}$.

Proof: Consider the residues $a, 2a, 3a, \\ldots, (p-1)a \\pmod{p}$. These are a permutation of $1, 2, \\ldots, p-1$ since $\\gcd(a,p)=1$ prevents any two from being congruent.

Multiplying all together: $a \\cdot 2a \\cdot 3a \\cdots (p-1)a \\equiv 1 \\cdot 2 \\cdot 3 \\cdots (p-1) \\pmod{p}$

This giv...

📖 Gini Index

$G = \\sum_{k=1}^{K}\\hat{p}_{mk}(1 - \\hat{p}_{mk})$ measures node purity. $G$ is small when node is pure (contains mostly observations from one class).

📐 Dual Space Dimension

If $V$ is finite-dimensional, then $\\dim(V^*) = \\dim(V)$.

Proof: Let $\\{v_1, \\ldots, v_n\\}$ be a basis for $V$. Define $f_i: V \\to F$ by:

$$f_i(v_j) = \\delta_{ij} = \\begin{cases} 1 & i = j \\\\ 0 & i \\neq j \\end{cases}$$

**Claim:** $\\{f_1, \\ldots, f_n\\}$ is a basis for $V^*$.

**Spanning:** For any $f \\in V^*$, let $c_i = f(v_i)$. Then for any $v ...
