humbling and beautiful

well, i have not written for quite a long time, actually was very very busy and yes the result was fruitful. very good results for the material i was trying to model.

but today just out curiosity, i tried to go beyond what was needed and encountered some beautiful but really complex mathematical functions after a very long time. how many times do you come across a situation when you have to find the inverse fourier transform of a function that has a compound inverted summation in the denominator.
the description looks crazy right, but the function has a beautiful meaning. abstract and applied math can be very humbling at times. this branch of science has always fascinated me. things can't get better, do you ever tend to love something when you cant solve it in the final step, math can get you to like it.

i still remember taking discrete math (i am a civil engineering student) during 3rd year at roorkee, well actually i dont want to share my experiances on that class, forget it.
