$\begingroup$ I prefer $\max\{f(x_1,\ldots,f(x_n)\}$ with curly braces and no parentheses. In this instance, the parentheses don't actually help, and the curly braces remind you that the thing whose maximum is sought is a set rather than a tuple. $\endgroup$
$\max\{x_1,x_2\} = \cases{x_1, \text{if }x_1 > x_2\\x_2, \text{otherwise}}$ You can define like that the maximum of any finitely many elements. When the parameters are an infinite set of values, then it is implied that one of them is maximal (namely that there is a greatest one, unlike the set $\{-\frac{1}{n} | n\in\mathbb{N}\}$ where there is no greatest element)
$\begingroup$ I feel like allowing $\arg\max f(x)$ to be either $\in \mathbb{R}$ or $\in \mathcal{P}(\mathbb{R})$ is a very troublesome definition.
May 11, 2020 · But let's take x = 2, then (1 - 2) ^ 2 will be (-1) ^2 which is nothing but 1 and according to op's max function, 1 should be returned. But since you gave the condition of x >= 1, we always return 0 even when x is something like 2. I think in comments what Andre Holzner said is correct.
Apr 6, 2012 · The result you need is that for a rectangle with a given perimeter the square has the largest area. So with a perimeter of 28 feet, you can form a square with sides of 7 feet and area of 49 square feet.
Get the range of the required distribution, in this case, max(X, Y) Find the CDF of this distribution as a function of the known distributions Find the PDF of the distribution by differentiating the CDF
Define $$ h(x) = \max\{f(x), g(x)\}. $$ Question: Show that $ h(x) $ is also convex. To show that $ h(x) = \max\{f(x), g(x)\} $ is convex, given that $ f(x) $ and $ g(x) $ are convex, we will proceed as follows: Proof: Let $ x_1, x_2 \geq 0 $ and $ 0 \leq \lambda \leq 1 $.

Jun 16, 2016 · I think I understand the very basic concepts of these terms, but wanted to check my understanding here. The max is the largest number in the set. The supremum is the least upper bound number in th...
