my knol stats and trivia update

By now too many of my knols were rated to waste time on a complete table of all rated knols. Most of them were rated only once though. Perhaps I'll waste time :-) on a table of those which were rated at least twice. Surprisingly, most of the scores are 5.0 (the top), With mostly one vote per knol it is a very fragile and not too meaningful statistics. They rarely are. I was pleased that some my non-mathematical knols got a positive response, even if minimal. It's a bit ironic that my most rated knols are mostly the ones which are not meritorious but logistic. My most popular and most rated knol is the index of my mathematical knols. It was rated 5 times (top rating each time, I think--Google irritates me by not providing the score explicitly and perfectly; instead, I see five gold stars; they look like solid gold, but are they?). I need to run now, more later (perhaps).

I'm back. I have three knols rated 1 (the lowest score), each time by one reader. One knol is about patents. Why would anyone react so strongly to such an innocent topic. Is this person somehow in the patenting business? Perhaps a patent office employee? Who knows. My another bottom rated knol is about the separation of the marriage notion and law+government. I advocate for years that it is not any business of the governmental and law agencies. A total blindness of law and government w.r. to the notion of marriage would empty many unnecessary problems and complications. And recently I "published" a list WhoWheWha (in progress) of people who had significant contributions to the human life quality. I wrote in a huge font that this knol is IN PROGRESS, that I have covered more or less only a few initial letters, for mathematicians only, plus a few musicians, plus two pure philosophers. Very soon I got rating 1. Most likely because I value philosophers and philosophy very little. I don't know. This is just a table with names, birth and death dates, and speciality--like mathematics, physics, music, biology... I want to add writers, movie directors, painters... Even politicians, including the pathological ones. This table takes awfully lot of time and effort though. At this moment it features 154 entries, 11 of them musical, 2 in philosophy, some in physics, astronomy. Only one in biology, Darwin, but I want to add Mendel.

Someone's knol gets in one week more pageviews than all 60++ of my knols over months.

Recently my knols are sprinkled with mostly single ratings, mostly the top one. One knol got rating while it has still only 3 pageviews. Another within hours since being "published"--Total logarithmic series, it has so far zero recorded pageviews, hey!

OK, time for the trivia table:

I'm tired, it's well after midnight, I need to stop this now.

emails and mathematical topics

Will I or will I not get flu?

Suddenly I got emails about mathematical topics from two of my friends. I have induced AP to program baroque numbers, which he was doing on and off, now on again. He uses the so-called genetic approach which is like simulated annealing + one additional kind of moves, where from two vertices one gets a new one (it simulates sexual reproduction). He has a better software, better computer, everything better than me but the results. Somehow it's not easy to communicate on long distance, in an irregular way, and it's hard for me to pass to him my experience. Actually, I am rusty these days myself, and will have to start almost from scratch (almost) if at all.

As the luck has it, around the same time I get an email from JBrz, who is excited about abc again. He and JBro have published a nice paper anbout abc years ago, about the integer and polynomial versions. So, they are serious, while I had only an amatourish interest in the topic, and only in the classical, integer version. But JBrz is all about the polynomial version these days. I am a social being, so I will try to join him.

I have a thousand of topics for knols (instead of working on one topic only), and now I have a thousand and two. And so it goes.

Recently I have finished ("published") my first knol about logarithmic and exponential functions, log and exp--a constructive and an axiomatic approaches. It has scored its first six views. The logarithmic knol is partially based on two knols about Integration of monotone functions and The ground level properties of integral.

A table of my rated knols

It looks like two people who know me (? or only one of them knows me?) have sprinkled my mathematical knols with one or two 5s (top score) recently. One of them likes topology. Another number theory. A third one metric spaces? Let me waste some time to make another table:
