In this exploratory article, we draw attention to the common formal ground among various estimators such as the belief functions of evidence theory and their relatives, approximation quality of rough set theory, and contextual probability.…
There are several compactification procedures in topology, but there is only one standard discretization, namely, replacing the original topology with the discrete topology. We give a notion of discretization which is dual (in categorical…
In the first part, we further advance the study of category theory in a strong balanced factorization category C [Pisani, 2008], a finitely complete category endowed with two reciprocally stable factorization systems such that X \to 1 is in…
Uniformly star superparacompactness, which is a topological property between compactness and completeness, can be characterized using finite-component covers and a measure of strong local compactness. Using these finite-component covers and…
In analogy with the classical theory of filters, for finitely complete categories, we provide the concepts of filter, G-neighborhood (short for \Grothendieck-neighborhood") and cover-neighborhood of a point, with the aim of studying…
Let $M$ be a smooth connected orientable closed surface and $f_0\in C^\infty(M)$ a function having only critical points of the $A_\mu$-types, $\mu\in\mathbb N$. Let ${\mathcal F}={\mathcal F}(f_0)$ be the set of functions $f\in C^\infty(M)$…
We generalize the dual notions of "expansion" and "collapse" so they can be applied to arbitrary metric spaces. We also expand the theory to allow for infinitely many such moves. Those tools are then employed to prove a variety of…
Many branches of theoretical and applied mathematics require a quantifiable notion of complexity. One such circumstance is a topological dynamical system - which involves a continuous self-map on a metric space. There are many notions of…
The combination of higher-order theories and fuzzy logic can be useful in decision-making tasks that involve reasoning across abstract functions and predicates, where exact matches are often rare or unnecessary. Developing efficient…
The concept of complementability is extended from bounded operators to densely defined operators on Hilbert spaces. By introducing appropriate projections and decomposition techniques, a framework is developed for analyzing…
We introduce the notion of compactifiable classes -- these are classes of metrizable compact spaces that can be up to homeomorphic copies ``disjointly combined'' into one metrizable compact space. This is witnessed by so-called compact…
Denote by $M_n$ the set of $n\times n$ complex matrices. Let $f: M_n \rightarrow [0,\infty)$ be a continuous map such that $f(\mu UAU^*)= f(A)$ for any complex unit $\mu$, $A \in M_n$ and unitary $U \in M_n$, $f(X)=0$ if and only if $X=0$…
We introduce multi-split continuous functions between topological spaces, a weaker form of continuity that generalizes split continuity while being stable under compositions. We will define the associated star multifunction and…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of $e^\star_{[\gamma,\gamma']}$-open sets in topological spaces and examine their properties in detail. Additionally, we propose a new class of functions, termed $(e^\star_{[\gamma,\gamma']},\…
We classify affine operators on a unitary or Euclidean space U up to topological conjugacy. An affine operator is a map f: U-->U of the form f(x)=Ax+b, in which A: U-->U is a linear operator and b in U. Two affine operators f and g are said…
We will generalize the concept of aggregation function for mathematical structures as a certain function between quantales. In fact, these functions turn to be exactly the lax morphism of quantales. This provides a global framework for the…
The class of Hausdorff spaces that are continuous images of compact orderable spaces is studied by analyzing the relationship between the elements of this class and compact orderable spaces in a back-and-forth fashion. Structure results for…
In this paper we introduce and study a new topologo-algebraic structure called a (di)topological unosemigroup. This is a topological semigroup endowed with continuous unary operations of left and right units (which have certain continuous…
In this paper we continue our research of functions on the boundary of their domain and obtain some results on cluster sets of functions between topological spaces. In particular, we prove that for a metrizable topological space $X$, a…
Let $\mathbbm{P}^{1,an}$ be the Berkovich projective line over a complete, algebraically closed, non-Archimedean field. Let $\phi$ be a degree $\geq 2$ rational map with potential good reduction, acting on $\mathbbm{P}^{1,an}$. In this…
