We address the problem of complementing higher-order patterns without repetitions of existential variables. Differently from the first-order case, the complement of a pattern cannot, in general, be described by a pattern, or even by a…
This investigation explores using the beta function formalism to calculate analytic solutions for the observable parameters in rolling scalar field cosmologies. The beta function in this case is the derivative of the scalar $\phi$ with…
The loop equations for the $\beta$-ensembles are conventionally solved in terms of a $1/N$ expansion. We observe that it is also possible to fix $N$ and expand in inverse powers of $\beta$. At leading order, for the one-point function…
Using the superspace formalism, we compute for the two-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric non-linear $\sigma$-model, the order $(\alpha^{\prime})^{2}$ $(R_{mnpq})^2$ (three-loop) correction to the central charge via the operator product…
In this paper we present a semantics for a linear algebraic lambda-calculus based on realizability. This semantics characterizes a notion of unitarity in the system, answering a long standing issue. We derive from the semantics a set of…
Let $K$ be a compact metric space. A real-valued function on $K$ is said to be of Baire class one (Baire-1) if it is the pointwise limit of a sequence of continuous functions. In this paper, we study two well known ordinal indices of…
We present a call-by-need $\lambda$-calculus that enables strong reduction (that is, reduction inside the body of abstractions) and guarantees that arguments are only evaluated if needed and at most once. This calculus uses explicit…
In this paper we study the $\Gamma$-limit, as $p\to 1$, of the functional $$ J_{p}(u)=\frac{\displaystyle\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^p + \beta\int_{ \partial \Omega} |u|^p}{\displaystyle \int_\Omega |u|^p}, $$ where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded…
Given $\beta\in(1,2)$, a $\beta$-expansion of a real $x$ is a power series in base $\beta$ with coefficients 0 and 1 whose sum equals $x$. The aim of this note is to study certain problems related to the universality and combinatorics of…
Given a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ with positive measure and a finite set $A=\{a^1, a^2, \dots, a^d\}$, we say that the set ${\mathcal E}(A)={\{e^{2 \pi i x \cdot a^j}\}}_{a^j \in A}$ is a complete exponential system if for…
Let $S$ be a complete star-omega semiring and $\Sigma$ be an alphabet. For a weighted $\omega$-restricted one-counter automaton $\mathcal{C}$ with set of states $\{1, \dots, n\}$, $n \geq 1$, we show that there exists a mixed algebraic…
This is a conitunation of [1] and [2]. We prove that if function $f$ belongs to the class $\Lambda_{\omega} \overset{\text{def}}{=} \{f: \omega_{f}(\delta)\leq \text{const} \omega(\delta)\} $ for an arbitrary modulus of continuity $\omega$,…
A new computational method that uses polynomial equations and dynamical systems to evaluate logical propositions is introduced and applied to Goedel's incompleteness theorems. The truth value of a logical formula subject to a set of axioms…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, smooth domain. Supposing that $\alpha(p) + \beta(p) = p$, $\forall\, p \in \left(\frac{N}{s},\infty\right)$ and $\displaystyle\lim_{p \to \infty} \alpha(p)/{p} = \theta \in (0,1)$, we consider two systems for the…
Let Omega(n) be the volume of the unit ball in R^n. We formulate as an infinite product the gamma function ratio gamma(x+1/2)/gamma(x),x>0, which allows us to reproduce and /or produce a variety of formulas and inequalities, some of them…
The algebraic lambda calculus and the linear algebraic lambda calculus are two extensions of the classical lambda calculus with linear combinations of terms. They arise independently in distinct contexts: the former is a fragment of the…
In the course of proving a tenability result about the probabilities of conditionals, van Fraassen (1976) introduced a semantics for conditionals based on omega-sequences of worlds, which amounts to a particularly simple special case of…
In this note, as a particular case of a more general result, we obtain the following theorem: Let $\Omega\subseteq {\bf R}^n$ be a non-empty bounded open set and let $f:\overline {\Omega}\to {\bf R}^n$ be a continuous function which is…
An irrational number $\theta$ is called Diophantine if there exist $c>0$ and $\tau < \infty$ such that $\left| \theta - \frac{p}{q} \right| \ge \frac{c}{q^\tau}$ holds for every $(p,q) \in \mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{N}$. In this paper, we…
We study Milner's encoding of the call-by-value $\lambda$-calculus into the $\pi$-calculus. We show that, by tuning the encoding to two subcalculi of the $\pi$-calculus (Internal $\pi$ and Asynchronous Local $\pi$), the equivalence on…
