The n-1 indicates that the calculation is being expanded from a sample of a population to the entire population. Bessel's correction(the use of n − 1 instead of n in the formula) is where n is the number of observations in a sample: it corrects the bias in the estimation of the population variance, and some (but not all) of the bias in the estimation of the population standard deviation. That is, when estimating the population variance and standard deviation from a sample when the population mean is unknown, the sample variance is a biased estimator of the population variance, and systematically underestimates it.
Pooled variance is a method for estimating variance given several different samples taken in different circumstances where the mean may vary between samples but the true variance (equivalently, precision) is assumed to remain the same. A combined variance is a method for estimating variance from several samples, given the size, mean and standard deviation of each. Mathematically, a combined variance is equal to the calculated variance of the set of the data from all samples. See links.
Yes, sigma squared (σ²) represents the variance of a population in statistics. Variance measures the dispersion of a set of values around their mean, and it is calculated as the average of the squared differences from the mean. In summary, σ² is simply the symbol used to denote variance in statistical formulas.
Yes, Mean is given by, E(X) sum of samples / no. of samples. Variance is Var.(X) = E(X^2) - [E(X)]^2. It is the 1st term which makes the variation of variance independent of mean. In other words, Variance gives a measure of how far the samples are spread out.
It is a rare to have an unknown population mean and a known population variance

It means you can take a measure of the variance of the sample and expect that result to be consistent for the entire population, and the sample is a valid representation for/of the population and does not influence that measure of the population.

i mean conclucion
The set of X1, X2, ..., XN is called X. Given that mean(X), is the sum of all X divided by N, the variance of X is mean((Xi - mean(X))2). The standard deviation of X is the square root of the variance.

It is a rare to have an unknown population mean and a known population variance
Some formulas statisticians may use are population mean, sample mean, variance, and standard deviation. They may also use linear regression line and standard error equations. Another can be the mean value of a data set, where one adds all data points given in a set and divides this number by the number of data points in the set.
The answer depends on the underlying variance (standard deviation) in the population, the size of the sample and the procedure used to select the sample.
The variance decreases with a larger sample so that the sample mean is likely to be closer to the population mean.
INFERENCES Any calculated number from a sample from the population is called a 'statistic', such as the mean or the variance.
