Starting from the working hypothesis that both physics and the corresponding mathematics have to be described by means of discrete concepts on the Planck-scale, one of the many problems one has to face in this enterprise is to find the…
We introduce appropriate definitions of dimensions in order to characterize the fractal properties of complex networks. We compute these dimensions in a hierarchically structured network of particular interest. In spite of the nontrivial…
We present two approaches, one homological and the other simplicial, for the investigation of dimension quotients of groups. The theory is illustrated, in particular, with a conceptual discussion of the fourth and fifth dimension quotients.
To represent positive integers by regular patterns on a plane or in three-dimensional space may be traced back to the Pythagoreans. The aim of the present article is to explore the possibility of extending the representation framework for…
There are various notions of dimension in fractal geometry to characterise (random and non-random) subsets of $\mathbb R^d$. In this expository text, we discuss their analogues for infinite subsets of $\mathbb Z^d$ and, more generally, for…
Conceptual Scaling is a useful standard tool in Formal Concept Analysis and beyond. Its mathematical theory, as elaborated in the last chapter of the FCA monograph, still has room for improvement. As it stands, even some of the basic…
In this paper we build off of Takahashi and White's $\mathcal{P}_C$-projective dimension and $\mathcal{I}_C$-injective dimension to define these dimensions for when $C$ is a semidaulizing complex. We develop the framework for these…
We consider the statistics of the number of nodal domains aka nodal counts for eigenfunctions of separable wave equations in arbitrary dimension. We give an explicit expression for the limiting distribution of normalised nodal counts and…
The zeta-dimension of a set A of positive integers is the infimum s such that the sum of the reciprocals of the s-th powers of the elements of A is finite. Zeta-dimension serves as a fractal dimension on the positive integers that extends…
Intuitively, the filter dimension of an algebra or a module measures how `close' standard filtrations of the algebra or the module are. In particular, for a simple algebra it also measures the growth of how `fast' one can prove that the…
The divisor function $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of the divisors of the positive integer $n$. For a prime $p$ and $m \in \mathbb{N}$, the $p$-adic valuation of $m$ is the highest power of $p$ which divides $m$. Formulas for…
The so-called spectral dimension is a scale-dependent number associated with both geometries and field theories that has recently attracted much attention, driven largely though not exclusively by investigations of causal dynamical…
Magnitude is a real-valued invariant of metric spaces, analogous to the Euler characteristic of topological spaces and the cardinality of sets. The definition of magnitude is a special case of a general categorical definition that clarifies…
The cognitive framework of conceptual spaces [3] provides geometric means for representing knowledge. A conceptual space is a high-dimensional space whose dimensions are partitioned into so-called domains. Within each domain, the Euclidean…
The dimension of a bipartition matrix (BPM) is the sum of the dimensions of its indecomposable factors. The dimension of an indecomposable BPM is the sum of its row, column, and entry dimensions. To compute these dimensions, we apply four…
This paper introduces a new notion of dimensionality of probabilistic models from an information-theoretic view point. We call it the "descriptive dimension"(Ddim). We show that Ddim coincides with the number of independent parameters for…
A rigorous mathematical theory of dimensional analysis, systematically accounting for the use of physical quantities in science and engineering, perhaps surprisingly, was not developed until relatively recently. We claim that this has…
Length density is a recently introduced factorization invariant, assigned to each element $n$ of a cancellative commutative atomic semigroup $S$, that measures how far the set of factorization lengths of $n$ is from being a full interval.…
In this paper, we study properties of Weil height functions associated with numerically trivial divisors. It helps us to define the fractional limit of $h_E$ with respect to $h_D$ on $U$, with $D$ ample: \[ \Flim_D(E,U) :=…
We study dimensions of the faces of the cone of nonnegative polynomials and the cone of sums of squares; we show that there are dimensional differences between corresponding faces of these cones. These dimensional gaps occur in all cases…
