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…
For fractals on Riemannian manifolds, the theory of iterated function systems often does not apply well directly, as fractal sets are often defined by relations that are multivalued or non-contractive. To overcome this difficulty, we…
The a-function is a proposed quantity defined for quantum field theories which has a monotonic behaviour along renormalisation group flows, being related to the beta-functions via a gradient flow equation involving a positive definite…
It is well known that ZFC, despite its usefulness as a foundational theory for mathematics, has two unwanted features: it cannot be written down explicitly due to its infinitely many axioms, and it has a countable model due to the…
Motivated by the classical work of Halmos on functional monadic Boolean algebras we derive three basic sup-semilattice constructions, among other things the so-called powersets and powerset operators. Such constructions are extremely useful…
This paper treats the variation of sets. We attempt to formulate convergence and continuity of set-valued functions in a different way from the theories on sequences of sets and correspondence. In the final section, we also attempt to…
Bent functions as optimal combinatorial objects are difficult to characterize and construct. In the literature, bent idempotents are a special class of bent functions and few constructions have been presented, which are restricted by the…
The theory of two binary relations has the strong amalgamation property when the first relation is assumed to be coarser than the second relation, and each relation satisfies a chosen set of properties from the following list: transitivity,…
In statistical classification and machine learning, as well as in social and other sciences, a number of measures of association have been proposed for assessing and comparing individual classifiers, raters, as well as their groups. In this…
It is known that strongly involutive polyhedra are closely related to self-dual maps where the antipodal function acts as duality isomorphism. Such a family of polyhedra appears in different combinatorial, topological and geometric…
We study the problem of multiset prediction. The goal of multiset prediction is to train a predictor that maps an input to a multiset consisting of multiple items. Unlike existing problems in supervised learning, such as classification,…
We describe a new approach to the notion of general hypergeometric functions
We introduce the concept of linked systems of symmetric group divisible designs. The connection with association schemes is established, and as a consequence we obtain an upper bound on the number of symmetric group divisible designs which…
Gowers norms have been studied extensively both in the direct sense, starting with a function and understanding the associated norm, and in the inverse sense, starting with the norm and deducing properties of the function. Instead of…
Let $S$ be a semigroup. Our main results is that we describe the complex-valued solutions of the following functional equations \[g(x\sigma (y)) = g(x)g(y)+f(x)f(y),\ x,y\in S,\] \[f(x\sigma (y)) = f(x)g(y)+f(y)g(x),\ x,y\in S,\] and…
We clarify how mirror symmetry acts on 3d theories with N=2,3 or 4 supersymmetries and non-abelian Chern-Simons terms and then construct many new examples. We identify a new duality, geometric duality, that allows us to generate large…
We intimate deeper connections between the Riemann zeta and gamma functions than often reported and further derive a new formula for expressing the value of $\zeta(2n+1)$ in terms of zeta at other fractional points. This paper also…
Let $f$ be a function on a bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and $\delta$ be a positive function on $\Omega$ such that $B(x,\delta(x))\subseteq \Omega$. Let $\sigma(f)(x)$ be the average of $f$ over the ball $B(x,\delta(x))$.…
In his groundbreaking work on pair correlation, Montgomery analyzed the distribution of the differences $\gamma'-\gamma$ between ordinates $\gamma$ of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function, assuming the Riemann Hypothesis. In…
The ring of Fermat reals is an extension of the real field containing nilpotent infinitesimals, and represents an alternative to Synthetic Differential Geometry in classical logic. In the present paper, our first aim is to study this ring…
