We define a symmetric monoidal category modelling fuzzy concepts and fuzzy conceptual reasoning within G\"ardenfors' framework of conceptual (convex) spaces. We propose log-concave functions as models of fuzzy concepts, showing that these…

The goal of this paper is to study convex lattice sets by the discrete Legendre transform. The definition of the polar of convex lattice sets in $\mathbb{Z}^n$ is provided. It is worth mentioning that the polar of convex lattice sets have…

The data of a physical experiment can be represented as a presheaf of probability distributions. A striking feature of quantum theory is that those probability distributions obtained in quantum mechanical experiments do not always admit a…

A new generalisation of the notion of space, called "vectoid", is suggested in this work. Basic definitions, examples and properties are presented, as well as a construction of direct product of vectoids. Proofs of more complicated…

In decision-making problems under uncertainty, probabilistic constraints are a valuable tool to express safety of decisions. They result from taking the probability measure of a given set of random inequalities depending on the decision…

Convex rank tests are partitions of the symmetric group which have desirable geometric properties. The statistical tests defined by such partitions involve counting all permutations in the equivalence classes. Each class consists of the…

Deciding whether the union of two convex polyhedra is itself a convex polyhedron is a basic problem in polyhedral computations; having important applications in the field of constrained control and in the synthesis, analysis, verification…

A coarse space $X$, endowed with a linear order compatible with the coarse structure of $X$, is called linearly ordered. We prove that every linearly ordered coarse space $X$ is locally convex and the asymptotic dimension of $X$ is either…

In this paper, we analyze the definition Andr\'e proposed for near-vector spaces to make it more transparent. We also study the class of near-vector spaces over division rings and give a characterization of regularity that gives a new…

The classical theory of regularity of embeddings of compact convex sets was developed in the 1970s, exclusively in the real case, and even there it does not appear to have been stated in its simplest form. We begin by revisiting this…

The usual notion of set-convexity, valid in the classical Euclidean context, metamorphoses into several distinct convexity types in the more general Riemannian setting. By studying this phenomenon in reverse, we characterize complete…

We provide a Lawvere-style definition for partial theories, extending the classical notion of equational theory by allowing partially defined operations. As in the classical case, our definition is syntactic: we use an appropriate class of…

We present a generalization of the notion of neighborliness to non-polyhedral convex cones. Although a definition of neighborliness is available in the non-polyhedral case in the literature, it is fairly restrictive as it requires all the…

The first steps towards linearisation of partial orders and equivalence relations are described. The definitions of partial orders and equivalence relations (on sets) are formulated in a way that is standard in category theory and that…

Convergence spaces are a generalization of topological spaces. The category of convergence spaces is well-suited for Algebraic Topology, one of the reasons is the existence of exponential objects provided by continuous convergence. In this…
