We introduce the resolvent composition, a monotonicity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a set-valued operator, as well as the proximal composition, a convexity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a function.…
Motivated by the notion of K-gentle partition of unity introduced in [12] and the notion of K-Lipschitz retract studied in [17], we study a weaker notion related to the Kantorovich-Rubinstein transport distance, that we call K-random…
We adopt an operatorial method, based on creation, annihilation and number operators, to describe one or two populations mutually interacting and moving in a two--dimensional region. In particular, we discuss how the two populations,…
These notes are an exposition and synthesis of various "jet space" constructions in complex analytic geometry. They are written primarily for model-theorists interested in the results of Campana and Fujiki (whose model-theoretic…
The established technique of eliminating upper or lower parameters in a general hypergeometric series is profitably exploited to create pathways among confluent hypergeometric functions, binomial functions, Bessel functions, and exponential…
The aim of this short note is to develop a (co)homology theory for topological spaces together with the specialisation preorder. A known way to construct such a (co)homology is to define a partial order on the topological space starting…
There is a generic way to add any new feature to a system. It involves 1) identifying the basic units which build up the system and 2) introducing the new feature to each of these basic units. In the case where the system is argumentation…
Abstract argumentation offers an appealing way of representing and evaluating arguments and counterarguments. This approach can be enhanced by a probability assignment to each argument. There are various interpretations that can be ascribed…
Convection-diffusion equations provide the basis for describing heat and mass transfer phenomena as well as processes of continuum mechanics. To handle flows in porous media, the fundamental issue is to model correctly the convective…
Birational rowmotion is a discrete dynamical system on the set of all positive real-valued functions on a finite poset, which is a birational lift of combinatorial rowmotion on order ideals. It is known that combinatorial rowmotion for a…
For a finite poset $P=(X,\prec)$, let $\mathcal{L}_P$ denote the set of linear extensions of $P$. The sorting probability $\delta(P)$ is defined as \[\delta(P) \, := \, \min_{x,y\in X} \, \bigl| \mathbf{P} \, [L(x)\leq L(y) ] \ - \…
We extend de Finetti's (1937) notion of exchangeability to finite and countable sequences of variables, when a subject's beliefs about them are modelled using coherent lower previsions rather than (linear) previsions. We prove…
We introduce persistence with an emphasis on its algebraic foundations, using the representation theory of posets. Linear representations of posets arise in several areas of mathematics, including the representation theory of quivers and…
In this paper, building on a previous analysis [1] of exact diagonalization of the space-discretized evolution operator for the study of properties of non-relativistic quantum systems, we present a substantial improvement to this method. We…
Bifurcations of periodic orbits as an external parameter is varied are a characteristic feature of generic Hamiltonian systems. Meyer's classification of normal forms provides a powerful tool to understand the structure of phase space…
We apply concepts of majorization theory to derive new insights in the field of extremal dependence structures. In particular, we consider the Rearrangement Algorithm by Puccetti and Rueschendorf, where majorization arguments yield a…
A family of boundary conditions corresponding to exclusion processes is introduced. This family is a generalization of the boundary conditions corresponding to the simple exclusion process, the drop-push model, and the one-parameter…
We introduce proper display calculi for intuitionistic, bi-intuitionistic and classical linear logics with exponentials, which are sound, complete, conservative, and enjoy cut-elimination and subformula property. Based on the same design,…
We explore the enumeration of some natural classes of graded posets, including all graded posets, (2+2)- and (3+1)-avoiding graded posets, (2+2)-avoiding graded posets, and (3+1)-avoiding graded posets. We obtain enumerative and structural…
We establish the existence of an involution on tabloids that is analogous to Schutzenberger's evacuation map on standard Young tableaux. We find that the number of its fixed points is given by evaluating a certain Green's polynomial at $q =…
