No, a Schrodinger reference. But Math had this kind of indeterminacy first!

Sure, Schrödingers cat, but I suppose Han made a wordplay about my explanations "blurry uncertainty" Big Grin

Is that a Heisenberg reference? :-)

I think that Han is not the kind of person of whom one could doubt that he confuses Heisenberg with Schrödinger. :-)

Actually, if f(x) and g(x) tends to 0 as x->0 and f and g are analytic at x=0 with f not identically 0, then f(x)^g(x) tends to 1, but if you remove the analytic hypothesis, then the limit could be anything, not just 0 or 1. For example f(x)=exp(-1/x^2) and g(x)=a*x^2, the limit is exp(-a).

I'm uncertain. :0
