We use the theory of Kolyvagin systems to prove (most of) a refined class number formula conjectured by Darmon. We show that for every odd prime $p$, each side of Darmon's conjectured formula (indexed by positive integers $n$) is "almost" a…

Unexpectedness is a central concept in Simplicity Theory, a theory of cognition relating various inferential processes to the computation of Kolmogorov complexities, rather than probabilities. Its predictive power has been confirmed by…

The present work develops a construction of a CD category of partial kernels from a particular type of Markov category called a partializable Markov category. These are a generalization of earlier models of categories of partial morphisms…

TThe problem is to identify a probability associated with a set of natural numbers, given an infinite data sequence of elements from the set. If the given sequence is drawn i.i.d. and the probability mass function involved (the target)…

Given two events $A$ and $B$, Bayes' law is based on the argument that the probability of $A$ given $B$ is proportional to the probability of $B$ given $A$. When probabilities are interpreted in the Bayesian sense, Bayes' law constitutes a…

The definition of the conditional probability is very important in the theory of the probability. This definition is based on the fact, that random events can be simultaneously measurable. This paper deal with the problem of conditioning…

In prefix coding over an infinite alphabet, methods that consider specific distributions generally consider those that decline more quickly than a power law (e.g., Golomb coding). Particular power-law distributions, however, model many…

In this paper, the improvement about the generalized Kolmogorov-type three series theorem, in the case of NQD random variables, is obtained by different method. Furthermore, the generalized Kolmogorov-type three series theorem is…

In this paper, we find necessary and sufficient conditions so that copula-based conditional distributions of a response variable with respect to covariates, are ordered with respect to the simple stochastic order introduced by Lehmann.…

In this article we discuss the formal structure of a generalized information theory based on the extension of the probability calculus of Kolmogorov to a (possibly) non-commutative setting. By studying this framework, we argue that quantum…

Most of the standard proofs of the Bell theorem are based on the Kolmogorov axioms of probability theory. We show that these proofs contain mathematical steps that cannot be reconciled with the Kolmogorov axioms. Specifically we demonstrate…

In the mentioned paper we presented results of the estimation of Kolmogorov complexity of sequences of random numbers generated in a famous Bell's experiment, aimed to study the security of QKD. We focused on series of time differences…

A new approach for estimating the Decoding Error-Probability (DEP) of LT codes with dense rows is derived by using the conditional Kovalenko's rank distribution. The estimate by the proposed approach is very close to the DEP approximated by…

Generalization of the Lambalgen's theorem is studied with the notion of Hippocratic (blind) randomness without assuming computability of conditional probabilities. In [Bauwence 2014], a counter-example for the generalization of Lambalgen's…

For a finite word $w$ we define and study the Kolmogorov structure function $h_w$ for nondeterministic automatic complexity. We prove upper bounds on $h_w$ that appear to be quite sharp, based on numerical evidence.
