Collatz Inequality and Singleton Expansion
I've blogged about this gem from Lothar Collatz (1910-1990) before, but it deserves to be repeated. Especially since it now provides an elegant example of singleton expansion.
For $|x|,|y| \le 4$
$$ ||||x| - 1| - 1| - |||y| - 1| - 1|| < \frac{1}{3} $$
Compare today's code code with this.
x = -4:1/64:4;
v = abs(abs(abs(x)-1)-1);
z = abs(v - v') < 1/3;
spy(z)
