We first learnt sin x as a geometric object, so can we make geometric sense of the Taylor series of the sine function? For a long time, I thought it was just my dream, but actually, it is not!
This proof only uses very elementary methods, and depending on your definition of calculus, doesn't actually use calculus. The most we are using is a limiting process, and definitely no differentiation or integration here.
This proof is very beautiful - not only that it unveils the geometric meaning of each term in the series very beautifully, but also understandable by a normal high-school student with a little bit of patience. I am very surprised that it has not appeared on RU-vid before, and even if it does exist on the internet, it is far too unpopular, and so I have to bring this up!
Obviously this is not my proof. See the sources below.

Update: proof of donation: ru-vid.comUgkxMsm-mzZc9a-gD8cmiygHPBC62vcf1pdM I might change the title to "Without calculus..." because... how else do you combine "differentiation and integration" so that the title is snappier? The only thing that held me back from making this video a fundraiser is the fear of political comments, or any comment that seeks to create conflict, so please do me a favour by not making those comments. Anyway, donate if you can; if not, like, comment and share this video so that this gets more people’s attention. This video is a lot slower than my usual videos, but it might be better for understanding. If somehow you think this is too slow, you can always speed it up. The hope is that you don’t need any university-level maths to understand this video. NOTE: In the last part, k is supposed to be fixed, so each bracket do go to 1 when n tends to infinity.

Great illustration! Also, e^x is hidden in there, as the total length of the spiral (including the horizontal segment from the origin to (1, 0)). This shows an intimate connection between the exponential and the sine/cosine, which typically isn't apparent without invoking the complex numbers.

Don't know about a geometric intuition on why e^x, for real x, appears here (I just let e^x be defined by its Taylor polynomial). One nice intuition that this diagram proof lends itself to is Euler's identity. As long as you're comfortable with the Taylor polynomial definitions, and the idea of a counterclockwise 90 degree turn being equivalent geometrically to a multiplication by i, then transposing this diagram onto the complex plane proves Euler's identity.

@yakov9ify 2 года назад

While the Pascal part is quite beautiful I think it abstracts away a little too much from the geometrical intuition. We can simply note that the 'rate' of unwrapping of involute n+1 is proportional to the distance from the point along the involute n. Thus suggests that the distance of involute n+1 at the unwrap point is the integral of the previous involutes distance from the point of interest. Thus a recursive arguments makes the nth involutes have a distance function x^n/n!

@mathemaniac 2 года назад

Wow this is a much, much more natural explanation of x^n/n! :) The reason I went with the Pascal's triangle is that the paper I'm following, and the aim of the video, is to present this argument with no differentiation / integration involved.

@yakov9ify 2 года назад

@@mathemaniac And I think it achieves that purpose wonderfully, I just always feel like with videos like yours and 3blue1brown's, the individual details are very enlightening but the overall picture gets a lil bit too muddied because of the amount of steps involved, so I prefer shorter proofs personally. That being said I do think there is a value to reaching these facts and theorems without the prerequisites of calculus and so I still am very happy these videos exist.

@bobtivnan 2 года назад

I'm having trouble visualizing rate of unwrapping here. Rate w.r.t. to what quantity? Are you saying that the length of the (n+1)th involute section can be viewed as a dx and the distance from the nth involute section would k•dx? If so, what is the significance of k in the integration scheme? How would the recursion argument work? So many questions.

@yakov9ify 2 года назад

@@bobtivnan take a point Q_1 on the 1st involute (i.e the circle segment) and parametrize by the angle from the point of interest P. As you change that angle consider the point Q_2 on the second involute which is also on the tangent line to the circle at point Q_1. Now consider how the length of the curve between Q_2 and P changes as you vary theta. At any specific theta the rate of travel of Q_2 along this curve is proportional to the distance along the circle between P and Q_1. Thus the total length of the second involute is equal to the integral of the distance along the curve from P to Q_1. But that is precisely the integral of theta from 0 to x which is x^2/2.

@bobtivnan 2 года назад

@@yakov9ify Thanks! I think I got it. The bounded region between the tangent segment, the nth and (n+1)th involutes is essentially a sector in the limit as theta->inf. Label the arc as the differential ds and use the arc length formula ds=r* d(theta). Integrate from 0 to x to get the arc length of the 2nd involute. I had to convince myself that the sum of all d(theta) = x (the central angle and arc length on the circle), but it must since from geometry the sum of all exterior angles (which are the d(thetas)) sum to x. I think it's wonderful that we can analyze this with and without calculus.

@notqueuebad4206 2 года назад

Very interesting way to develop the Taylor series! I remember studying Chebyshev polynomials a few months ago, motivated primarily via generating function. Since this involved regular polygons (i.e., partitioning the circle into equal segments) and my approach was combinatorial, just like in the video, I noticed the coefficients in the polynomials of the second kind start to resemble Pascal's triangle. There's even a natural duality that appears to be demonstrated in the expressions: rewriting the polynomials as polynomials in 2x rather than x makes the binomial coefficients clearer, and in the video lambda has a coefficient of 2. I also happened to develop the Chebyshev polynomials out of stereographic projections rather than the standard (cos x, sin x) parametrization, which I find interesting for the fact that all of this can be done before you've written out the series for sine and cosine.

@PetruRatiu 2 года назад

A very satisfying proof, which I hadn't heard of before, thanks! The only small issue I see is that there's a skipped step to recursively prove the involute length formula (If I'm not mistaken, after the initial circle they're all cardioids). Somewhere around 11:00 there should be a note showing that the angles are preserved even if the lengths are not.

@mathemaniac 2 года назад

Yes, I deliberately glossed over this part because I don't want to make this longer than it should be - so essentially once you have proved that the angles between the different segments in the first involute is still x/n, or rather, pi - x/n, then you're good to go. (Like in the 0th involute, the angles between different segments are pi - x/n) This is because, as said in the video, we will return to exactly the same situation, just rotated, and the lengths of the little segments will change, so once you proved the angle for the first involute, then you have proved that for every involute.

@rossjennings4755 2 года назад

This sounds like a bit of a laundry list, but I think the graph Laplacian actually has a really neat "geometric" interpretation that might be worthy of a video from someone. Basically, to make head or tail of it, you have to think of it as a linear transformation, rather than as a matrix, which is how it's often presented. The vectors that it operates on are functions defined on the vertices of the graph. To get the value of the transformed function at a vertex, do this: for each adjacent vertex, subtract the value of the initial function at that vertex from its value at the vertex of interest, then add up all the differences. So if the value of the initial function was equal to the average of the values at adjacent vertices, you get zero. This corresponds really well to a bunch of systems, one of the simplest being a bunch of reservoirs of water (vertices) connected by pipes (edges). If the initial function gives the amount of water in each reservoir, then applying the graph Laplacian gives the rate at which water is flowing into or out of each reservoir (up to a constant factor). To get the amount of water in each reservoir at any later time, you can do a matrix exponential, and to do that, you need to think about the eigenvectors. The constant function is always an eigenvector with eigenvalue zero, and the others are "wave" patterns that decay away without changing shape, at a rate determined by the corresponding eigenvalue.

@bobtivnan 2 года назад

So, can we generalize this for other functions? Instead of of sin(x) and cos(x) as parameterizations that happen to form a circle could we use involutes to describe other parametric curves like say ? By the way, Euler's formula is beautifully hidden in here if we use the complex plane (follow up video?).

@angeldude101 2 года назад

Not just the complex plane. With just a small tweak, making all the involutes go outwards rather than spiraling inwards yields the unit hyperbola, and if you made all of them point in the same direction and plotted the total length against the starting angle, you'd get the exponential function. The only thing that an imaginary factor in the exponent does is dictate what direction you should fold the involutes. There's even a number system that causes every involute after the first one (the one with the lambda^1 factor, which the video called the zeroth) to self-destruct. Since this did seem like a geometric representation of the power series, you could probably do it with any function that has one.

@orstorzsok6708 2 года назад

I was thinking on the same but I came to the point that if you would like to do it with some other function (let it be e.g.: 'e ad x' or 1/x) then how would any involute generated...? From what... or of what...

@orstorzsok6708 2 года назад

@@angeldude101 Could you please send me a graphical illustration for that...? You can chose your preferred function...

@bobtivnan 2 года назад

My thinking is that we can represent a Maclaurin series for any n-times differentiable function in a similar way. e^x is the most obvious case since the arc lenths of each involute shown here is exactly the value of each term in its series. As someone pointed out, we would need to rotate each involute by 90⁰ clockwise on each iteration so they stack up vertically. But this idea can be extended to other functions as well...

@bobtivnan 2 года назад

The missing pieces are the coefficients. Actually, the factorial parts are already there, so we just need to scale each involute by the nth derivative at x=0. Then stack them up as described before. Not sure what purpose it serves other than a new way to view Taylor series.

i only understood a fraction of this vid bc im in grade 11, so idk the pascals triangle notation and how it turned into what it did turned into what it did, or the math you did afterwards, but for everything else i understood it bc you explained everything so clearly and amazingly, and at an amazing pace, so when i slowed down, i could think about it and understand it. thank you so much for this vid, this is amazing. this is why im continuing math in uni, these things are amazing

If you want to choose r objects out of n objects, then you can do the following: 1. You choose the first object and then choose r - 1 objects out of the remaining n - 1 objects. 2. Or you don't choose the first object and then choose r objects out of the remaining n - 1 objects. Defining nCr as the number of ways to choose r objects out of n objects and following the above logic, you get: nCr = (n-1)C(r-1) + (n-1)Cr Now, look at the Pascal's triangle in Wikipedia, and you would see you are adding two numbers to get a number in the next row. You're basically following the above formula.

@natevanderw 2 года назад

I love your videos! I am currently having my students in complex analysis watch your previous video! Very helpful for them! I am thinking of assigning this video to my students for calculus 2 now who are about to learn Taylor series, but I am not sure if this will fly above their head a bit. I really like how you made this video and now I wonder if something analogous can be done in this regard to f(x) in general when it is not sin or cos? Probably not but this is very such a beautiful derivation!

@mathemaniac 2 года назад

I highly doubt this can be generalised to all smooth functions - but indeed, this is a beautiful derivation!
