Fear
Probably one of my greatest fear is that one day, I will not be able to understand what in going on in a mathematical proof no matter how hard I try.
Phew...last night was probably the most frustrating night of all. No matter how hard I tried, I still couldn't get around certain fine points of the proof of the theorem. I'll state it down here:
Let L be a solvable subalgebra of gl(V) where V is a finite dimensional vector space. Then there exists a common nonzero eigenvector in V for all linear transforms in L.
The fact that the writer skips a lot of steps and expects me to fill in the technical details doesn't help either.
Let me let out a scream.
