I am Indian citizen male residing in Saudi Arabia with my family.  I applied for UK visitor visa to attend a 3-day long technical training course.  The length of the visit was for 16 days, because I planned to sightsee after attending the training.   I have already visited the UK before twice. This time, I was going to the UK alone, and my family was to remain in Saudi Arabia. My family is financially dependent on me.  This visit was financially supported/sponsored by my employer, and a supporting letter was included with the application.   Given the above details, I got rejected due to not providing provenance of funds, as follows:     I had secured a personal loan in August 2016 from a bank in Saudi Arabia. My salary is deposited in the same bank account.  I had attached my account bank statements with the application. However, I did not mention the loan in the application. Also, I had not attached a separate statement from the bank about the loan, which appears as a credit on the account statement.  Is it wise to reapply?    I have approached the bank, but it refuses to provide a statement regarding the loan.   What should I do to increase the chance of succeeding with a second application? Should I attach any additional supporting document?  Is there an option for lodging complaint. Is it advisable?
I have applied recently for a general visitor visa to the UK to spend 10 days during Christmas with my British unmarried partner and it has been turned down.   The Entry Clearance Officer stated on his refusal notice the following:     I note that you have never previously travelled to the UK or any country with similar immigration requirements and you therefore do not have a history of travel and compliance to consider.      You have submitted an employment letter to confirm your occupation in KSA but I am required to also assess your personal, domestic and economic circumstances in determining whether you are genuine visitor travelling to the UK for the period and purpose you state.      You claim an income of SAR ........ per month which equal ........ GBP and from the evidence submitted this appears to be your sole source of income.   I note that this monthly income is reflected on your bank statements. However, the bank statement you have presented show a recent large deposit that are in excess of your stated income and inconsistent with the account history. You haven't provided evidence toward the origin of this recent deposit and in the absence of reasonable evidence I am not satisfied that these bank statements accurately reflect your personal circumstances.      In view of the above, I am not satisfied you have demonstrated that your circumstances are as you claim and therefore I am not satisfied that you're travelling to the UK for the period and purpose you stated. 41(i)and(ii).   Its true that I have deposited that sum of money right before I apply and it was a commission I received from work earlier this month.   So, could you please give me your advice on the above as I am planning to apply again soon. and how to avoid my application being refused again?
What is the fundamental group of $(\mathbb{C} \setminus {\{0\}})~/~\{e,a\}$, where $e$ is the identity homeomorphism and $az = -\bar{z}$?  Clearly this is homeomorphic to the half cylinder , which is homotopy equivalent to the half circle.  But what is the fundamental group of the half circle?

Proving that the function is differentiable and $f'(0)=0$ Consider a function $f (x) $ such that $f (x)=\begin {cases} x^2 &amp;  \text {x=irrational}     \\ 0   &amp;\text {x=rational} \end {cases}$ Then prove that $f $ is differentiable  at $x=0$ and $f'(0)=0$ $$\text {Attempt} $$ .                  .  Now I consider two sequences $x_n=\frac {\sqrt{2}}{n},y_n=\frac {1}{n} $ one irrational one rational both going to $0$ as $n\to \infty $. But now the problem is how to consider LHD,RHD.Do we have to consider irrational case then rational case and if both limits go to same value then say that function is differentiable.I can easily see the graph on graphical calculator and verify the result but I am more interested in analytical method.

Do the electric and magnetic components of an electromagnetic wave really generate each other? Frequently when EM waves are taught, it is said that the change in electric field causes a change in the magnetic field, which then causes a change in the electric field, and so on and so forth.   But from my understanding of basic electromagnetics, it is not necessarily a changing electric field that creates a change in magnetic field, but instead an accelerating charge. and it is this charge that creates both the electric and magnetic field. Again, from my understanding, a changing magnetic field is not generated by a changing electric field, but instead just happens to always be present perpendicular to a changing electric field due to the laws of electromagnetism.   Am I wrong? Or is the "mutual generation" concept between the electric and magnetic components of an EM wave an actual thing? Most efficient way to append arrays in C#?

Shader nodes are missing? Show that $d_b(x,y)=\frac{d(x,y)}{1+d(x,y)}$ is a metric. where $(X,d)$ is a metric and $x,y \in X$.  I know we need to show:   non-negativity: $d(x,y)\geq$ 0 $d(x,y)=0$ if and only if $x=y$ symmetry: $d(x,y)=d(y,x)$ $d(x,z)\leq d(x,y) + d(y,z)$   I think we need to consider the derivative of $f(t)=\frac{t}{1+t}$ however I am not sure what to do next. Why is $A^TA$ invertible if $A$ has independent columns? How can I understand that $A^TA$ is invertible if $A$ has independent columns? I found a similar , phrased the other way around, so I tried to use the theorem  $$ rank(A^TA) \le min(rank(A^T),rank(A)) $$  Given $rank(A) = rank(A^T) = n$ and $A^TA$ produces an $n\times n$ matrix, I can't seem to prove that $rank(A^TA)$ is actually $n$.  I also tried to look at the question another way with the matrices  $$ A^TA = \begin{bmatrix}a_1^T \\ a_2^T \\ \ldots \\ a_n^T \end{bmatrix}   \begin{bmatrix}a_1 a_2 \ldots a_n \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}A^Ta_1 A^Ta^2 \ldots A^Ta_n\end{bmatrix} $$  But I still can't seem to show that $A^TA$ is invertible. So, how should I get a better understanding of why $A^TA$ is invertible if $A$ has independent columns?

He can't afford a house there, now. This thing really troubled me when he said it in Avengers: Age of Ultron. I mean, I really became sympathetic, despite it being intended for fun.  What's the salary Captain America collects from (fallen) S.H.I.E.L.D. and/or Tony's Avengers organization? Can't they gift him a house in Brooklyn? I mean, he is one of Earth's mightiest heroes who help saved the world lots of times.
