The goal of this paper is to provide exact and terminating algorithms for the formal analysis of deterministic continuous-time control systems with affine input and polynomial state dynamics (in short, polynomial systems). We consider the…

We show that any semi-algebraic sweeping process admits piecewise absolutely continuous solutions, and any such bounded trajectory must have finite length. Analogous results hold more generally for sweeping processes definable in o-minimal…

Laminar set systems consist of non-crossing subsets of a universe with set inclusion essentially corresponding to the descendant relationship of a tree, the so-called laminar tree. Laminar set systems lie at the core of many graph…

To preserve previously learned representations, continual learning systems must strike a balance between plasticity, the ability to acquire new knowledge, and stability. This stability-plasticity dilemma affects how representations can be…

In classical set theory, there are many equivalent ways to introduce ordinals. In a constructive setting, however, the different notions split apart, with different advantages and disadvantages for each. We consider three different notions…

Formal Concept Analysis makes the fundamental observation that any finite lattice $(L, \leq)$ is determined up to isomorphism by the restriction of the relation ${\leq} \subseteq L \times L$ to the set $J(L) \times M(L)$, where $J(L)$ is…

Zero-Shot Learning (ZSL) is typically achieved by resorting to a class semantic embedding space to transfer the knowledge from the seen classes to unseen ones. Capturing the common semantic characteristics between the visual modality and…

We investigate the computational power of periodically iterated morphisms, also known as D0L systems with periodic control, PD0L systems for short. These systems give rise to a class of one-sided infinite sequences, called PD0L words. We…

We study the quasi-order of topological embeddability on definable functions between Polish zero-dimensional spaces. We first study the descriptive complexity of this quasi-order restricted to the space of continuous functions. Our main…

This paper addresses the problem of stabilization for infinite-dimensional systems. In particular, we design nonlinear stabilizers for both linear and nonlinear abstract systems. We focus on two classes of systems: the first class comprises…

This paper studies subsets of one-sided shift spaces on a finite alphabet. Such subsets arise in symbolic dynamics, in fractal constructions, and in number theory. We study a family of decimation operations, which extract subsequences of…

Using Conley theory we show that local attractors remain (past) attractors under small non-autonomous perturbations. In particular, the attractors of the perturbed systems will have positive invariant neighborhoods and converge upper…

Symbolic systems operate over precise identities: variables denote specific objects, pointers target precise memory locations, and database keys refer to singular records. Neural embeddings generalize by compressing away semantic detail,…

In continuous first-order logic, the union of definable sets is definable but generally the intersection is not. This means that in any continuous theory, the collection of $\varnothing$-definable sets in one variable forms a…

Inspired by a recent novel work of Good and Meddaugh, we establish fundamental connections between shadowing, finite order shifts, and ultrametric complete spaces. We develop a theory of shifts of finite type for infinite alphabets. We call…

The stable set associated to a given set S of nonerasing endomorphisms or substitutions is the set of all right infinite words that can be indefinitely desubstituted over S. This notion generalizes the notion of sets of fixed points of…

In this paper we further explore the L-shadowing property defined in [17] for dynamical systems on compact spaces. We prove that structurally stable diffeomorphisms and some pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms of the two-dimensional sphere…
