Would you like to chime in on [[Talk:Power_factor#Negative_Power_Factor.3F]]? There is an issue on as to whether power factors can be described as being negative values. Basically it is the sine value in the 2nd and 4th quadrants. I studied them in school during electrical training. We were taught that they were either 'leading' or 'lagging' depending on which quadrant they were in. I always assumed it was an absolute sine value with lead or lag specified. Since digital meters started being used then things may have changed. Meters are programmed to read out +/- because that is probably easier than lead/lag.

ambiguity

We say that F is a Ti-field if any such system, of degrees d1, ..., dm has a common non-zero solution whenever[...etc...]

Does this mean "[...]if there is any system of degrees that has a common non-zero solution whenever[...etc...]", or does it mean "[...]if it is the case that _any_ such system, no matter which one, has a common non-zero solution whenever[...etc...]"? A reasonable person might read it either way. In the first case, changing "any" to "some" would resolve the ambiguity; in the second case, changing "any" to "every" would do it. "Any" is sometimes a hazardous word. I've changed it to "every" in the article. Michael Hardy (talk) 20:18, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Ramification group may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Turán's method

In Turán's method, you've got

Then later you say the first result applies to sums where for all ν. Then you say for any range of ν length N, there is some ν with |sν| ≥ something. So you're using the letter ν as the _exponent_ in the expression that defines the sum sν, in which the subscript on z is n rather than ν. And at the same time, you've got ν as the subscript on z when you take about the range of values of ν.

That is at best an unclear way to say something. Could you clarify? Michael Hardy (talk) 15:35, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It should have been sums sν where for all n etc. Thank you for pointing that out -- fixed now. Spectral sequence (talk) 17:19, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
