This paper provides a unified framework connecting dynamical systems with tools from topological data analysis and geometric topology and inspires new interactions among dynamical systems, topology, and nonlinear analysis. To this end, we…
Homeostasis is widely observed in biological systems and refers to their ability to maintain an output quantity approximately constant despite variations in external disturbances. Mathematically, homeostasis can be formulated through an…
The question whether P equals NP revolves around the discrepancy between active production and mere verification by Turing machines. In this paper, we examine the analogous problem for finite transducers and automata. Every nondeterministic…
We introduce OpSets, an executable framework for specifying and reasoning about the semantics of replicated datatypes that provide eventual consistency in a distributed system, and for mechanically verifying algorithms that implement these…
Recurrence determinism, one of the fundamental characteristics of recurrence quantification analysis, measures predictability of a trajectory of a dynamical system. It is tightly connected with the conditional probability that, given a…
This thesis investigates three biologically inspired operations: prefix-suffix duplication, bounded prefix-suffix duplication, and prefix-suffix-square completion. Duplication, a common genetic mutation, involves repeating DNA sequences and…
In this paper we study how to perform distinct sampling in the streaming model where data contain near-duplicates. The goal of distinct sampling is to return a distinct element uniformly at random from the universe of elements, given that…
Given a stream of heterogeneous graphs containing different types of nodes and edges, how can we spot anomalous ones in real-time while consuming bounded memory? This problem is motivated by and generalizes from its application in security…
In this monography, it is proposed to consider the concepts of spectra of edge cuts and edge cycles of a graph as a basic mathematical structure for solving the problem of graph isomorphism. An edge cut is defined by an edge and the…
Deep hashing has shown to be a complexity-efficient solution for the Approximate Nearest Neighbor search problem in high dimensional space. Many methods usually build the loss function from pairwise or triplet data points to capture the…
In this paper, we prove that a class of regular sequences can be viewed as projections of fixed points of uniform morphisms on a countable alphabet, and also can be generated by countable states automata. Moreover, we prove that the…
The value 1 problem is a decision problem for probabilistic automata over finite words: given a probabilistic automaton, are there words accepted with probability arbitrarily close to 1? This problem was proved undecidable recently; to…
An S-adic system is a symbolic dynamical system generated by iterating an infinite sequence of substitutions or morphisms, called a directive sequence. A finitary S-adic dynamical system is one where the directive sequence consists of…
We present a strongly exponential lower bound that applies both to the subset synchronization threshold for binary deterministic automata and to the careful synchronization threshold for binary partial automata. In the later form, the…
It is well-known that there exist infinite sequences that are the fixed point of non-uniform morphisms, but not $k$-automatic for any $k$. In this note we show that every $k$-automatic sequence is the image of a fixed point of a {\it…
Following a general program of studying limits of discrete structures, and motivated by the theory of limit objects of converge sequences of dense simple graphs, we study the limit of graph sequences such that every edge is labeled by an…
We initiate the study of the Maximal Matching problem in bounded-deletion graph streams. In this setting, a graph $G$ is revealed as an arbitrary sequence of edge insertions and deletions, where the number of insertions is unrestricted but…
We study automatic sequences and automatic systems generated by general constant length (nonprimitive) substitutions. While an automatic system is typically uncountable, the set of automatic sequences is countable, implying that most…
We study decidability of verification problems for timed automata extended with unbounded discrete data structures. More detailed, we extend timed automata with a pushdown stack. In this way, we obtain a strong model that may for instance…
Discrete visual tokenizers translate images into ordered sequences of codes, providing a natural representation for structural description of scenes. Yet existing adaptive tokenizers either require post-hoc search or select among a discrete…
