We investigate computability in the lattice of equivalence relations on the natural numbers. We mostly investigate whether the subsets of appropriately defined subrecursive equivalence relations -for example the set of all polynomial-time…
The existence of various physical phenomena stems from the concept called asymptotic emergence, that is, they seem to be exclusively reserved for certain limiting theories. Important examples are spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) and…
We briefly review the various contexts within which one might address the issue of ``why'' the dimensionless constants of Nature have the particular values that they are observed to have. Both the general historical trend, in physics, of…
We consider the coincidence problem for the square lattice that is translated by an arbitrary vector. General results are obtained about the set of coincidence isometries and the coincidence site lattices of a shifted square lattice by…
In previous papers we define certain Lagrangian shadows of ample divisors in algebraic varieties. In the present brief note an existence condition is discussed for these Lagrangian shadows.
The switch process alternates independently between 1 and -1, with the first switch to 1 occurring at the origin. The expected value function of this process is defined uniquely by the distribution of switching times. The relation between…
A complete characterization of near subnormality for bilateral weighted shifts is obtained. As an application of the main results, many new answers to the Hilbert space problem 160 are presented at the end of the paper.
We discuss natural transformations in the context of Lie groupoids, and their infinitesimal counterpart. Our main result is an integration procedure that provides smooth natural transformations between Lie groupoid morphisms.
In this short note we discuss ordinary differential equations which linearize upon one (or more) differentiations. Although the subject is fairly elementary, equations of this type arise naturally in the context of integrable systems.
Our goal in this paper is to identify certain naturally occurring colimits of schemes and algebraic spaces. To do so, we use (and prove) some new Tannaka duality theorems for maps of algebraic spaces.
This work focuses on recurrence and ergodicity of switching diffusions consisting of continuous and discrete components, in which the discrete component takes values in a countably infinite set and the rates of switching at current time…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce an algebraic cohomology and formal deformation theory of left alternative algebras. Connections to some other algebraic structures are given also.
In this paper we provide sufficient conditions in order to show that the set image of a continuous and shift-commuting map defined on a shift space over an arbitrary discrete alphabet is also a shift space; additionally, if such a map is…
We formulate and prove a chain level descent property of symplectic cohomology for involutive covers by compact subsets that take into account the natural algebraic structures that are present. The notion of an involutive cover is reviewed.…
We introduce a notion of uniformly continuous orbit equivalence as a subequivalence relation of continuous orbit equivalence of one-sided topological Markov shifts. It is described in terms of gauge actions on the associated Cuntz-Krieger…
We study two problems related to flow equivalence of shift spaces. The first problem, the classification of $S$-gap shifts up to flow equivalence, is partially solved with the establishment of a new invariant for the sofic $S$-gap shifts…
The question posed in the title is answered in terms of a simple pictorial argument that is manifestly symmetric between the two functions that are Legendre transform of each other.
The problem of exponentiating derivations of quasi *-algebras is considered in view of applying it to the determination of the time evolution of a physical system. The particular case where observables constitute a proper CQ*-algebra is…
This article examines the decoherence of a macroscopic body using a simple model of the environment and following the evolution of the pure state for the whole system. We found that decoherence occurs for very general initial conditions and…
Nonrelativistic scalar field theories can exhibit a natural cascading hierarchy of scales, protected by a hierarchy of polynomial shift symmetries. Using a simple model, we argue that a high-energy cross-over to such nonrelativistic…
