The standard axiomatization of quantum mechanics (QM) is not fully explicit about the role of the time-parameter. Especially, the time reference within the probability algorithm (the Born Rule, BR) is unclear. Using a plausible principle…

We first consider a question raised by Alexander Eremenko and show that if $\Omega $ is an arbitrary connected open cone in ${\mathbb R}^d$, then any two positive harmonic functions in $\Omega $ that vanish on $\partial \Omega $ must be…

In an earlier paper, "Omega-inconsistency in Goedel's formal system: a constructive proof of the Entscheidungsproblem" (math/0206302), I argued that a constructive interpretation of Goedel's reasoning establishes any formal system of…

We study rational numbers with purely periodic R\'enyi $\beta$-expansions. For bases $\beta$ satisfying $\beta^2=a\beta+b$ with $b$ dividing $a$, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for $\gamma(\beta)=1$, i.e., that all rational…

A longstanding open problem is whether there exists a non syntactical model of the untyped lambda-calculus whose theory is exactly the least lambda-theory (l-beta). In this paper we investigate the more general question of whether the…

We consider the boundary value problem $-\Delta_p u_\lambda -\Delta_q u_\lambda =\lambda g(x) u_\lambda^{-\beta}$ in $\Omega$ , $u_\lambda=0$ on $\partial \Omega$ with $u_\lambda>0$ in $\Omega.$ We assume $\Omega$ is a bounded open set in…

In the unit ball B(0,1), let $u$ and $\Omega$ (a domain in $\R$) solve the following overdetermined problem: $$\Delta u =\chi_\Omega\quad \hbox{in} B(0,1), \qquad 0 \in \partial \Omega, \qquad u=|\nabla u |=0 \quad \hbox{in} B(0,1)\setminus…

We go further in the investigation of the Robin problem $(P_{\alpha})$: $-\Delta u=a(x)u^{q}$ in $\Omega$, $u\geq0$ in $\Omega$, $\partial_{\nu}u=\alpha u$ on $\partial \Omega$; on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{N}$, with $a$…

The confluence of untyped lambda-calculus with unconditional rewriting has already been studied in various directions. In this paper, we investigate the confluence of lambda-calculus with conditional rewriting and provide general results in…

Euler showed that if an odd perfect number exists, it must be of the form $N = p^\alpha q_{1}^{2\beta_{1}}$ $\ldots$ $q_{k}^{2\beta_{k}}$, where $p, q_{1}, \ldots, q_k$ are distinct odd primes, $\alpha$, $\beta_{i} \geq 1$, for $1 \leq i…

We prove that, for each non null countable ordinal alpha, there exist some Sigma^0_alpha-complete omega-powers, and some Pi^0_alpha-complete omega-powers, extending previous works on the topological complexity of omega-powers. We prove…

We sketch a tentative proof of P-completeness for the $\beta$-convertibility problem on untyped planar (a.k.a. ordered or non-commutative) $\lambda$-terms.

The formal system $\lambda\delta$ is a typed lambda calculus derived from $\Lambda_\infty$, aiming to support the foundations of Mathematics that require an underlying theory of expressions (for example the Minimal Type Theory). The system…

If we apply an extension of the Deduction meta-Theorem to Goedel's meta-reasoning of "undecidability", we can conclude that Goedel's formal system of Arithmetic is not omega-consistent. If we then take the standard interpretation…

In this paper we obtain a precise formula for the $1$-level density of $L$-functions attached to non-Galois cubic Dedekind zeta functions. We find a secondary term which is unique to this context, in the sense that no lower-order term of…

Let p_1, ..., p_N \in R^D be unknown vectors and let Omega \subseteq {1,...,N}^{\times 2}. Assume that the inner products p_i^T p_j are fixed for all (i,j) \in Omega. Do these inner product constraints (up to simultaneous rotation of all…

In this paper we consider a type system with a universal type $\omega$ where any term (whether open or closed, $\beta$-normalising or not) has type $\omega$. We provide this type system with a realisability semantics where an atomic type is…

We show that adding recursion does not increase the total functions definable in the typed $\lambda\beta\eta$-calculus or the partial functions definable in the $\lambda\Omega$-calculus. As a consequence, adding recursion does not increase…

The infinitary lambda calculi pioneered by Kennaway et al. extend the basic lambda calculus by metric completion to infinite terms and reductions. Depending on the chosen metric, the resulting infinitary calculi exhibit different notions of…

We will examine a particular mathematical derivation in a paper by P. Falkensteiner and H. Grosse (F&G) [1]. In [1] a quantity "delta(A)" is defined. This quantity is generated when the normal ordered generalized charge operator undergoes a…
