In a convolution semigroup over a locally compact group, measurability of the translation by a fixed element implies continuity. In other words, the measurable centre coincides with the topological centre.

Every function on a finite set defines an equivalence relation and, therefore, a partition called the kernel of the function. Automata such that every possible partition is the kernel of a word are called totally compatible. A…

In this short note, we study C((t)) in the language of valued rings. We show that a definable subset of C((t))n (or in monster model, Mn) is definably compact iff it is closed and unbounded. Then we give some comments on definable groups…

We consider a hard core (HC) model with a countable set $\mathbb{Z}$ of spin values on the Cayley tree. This model is defined by a countable set of parameters $\lambda_{i}>0, i \in \mathbb{Z}\setminus\{0\}$. For all possible values of…

We study positive definiteness of kernels $K(x,y)$ on two-point homogeneous spaces. As opposed to the classical case, which has been developed and studied in the existing literature, we allow the kernel to have an (integrable) singularity…

The notion of weak measurement provides a formalism for extracting information from a quantum system in the limit of vanishing disturbance to its state. Here we extend this formalism to the measurement of sequences of observables. When…

Nonlinear Doebner-Goldin [Phys. Rev. A 54, 3764 (1996)] gauge transformations (NGT) defined in terms of a wave function $\psi(x)$ do not form a group. To get a group property one has to consider transformations that act differently on…

In the field of pattern mining, a negative sequential pattern is specified by means of a sequence consisting of events to occur and of other events, called negative events, to be absent. For instance, containment of the pattern $\langle a\…

Let $G$ be a group. A subset $D$ of $G$ is a determining set of $G$, if every automorphism of $G$ is uniquely determined by its action on $D$. The determining number of $G$, denoted by $\alpha(G)$, is the cardinality of a smallest…

Starting with the correspondence between positive definite kernels on the one hand and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) on the other, we turn to a detailed analysis of associated measures and Gaussian processes. Point of departure:…

We study positive definite kernels pulled back along a finite family of self-maps under a subinvariance inequality for the associated branching operator. Iteration produces an increasing kernel tower with defect kernels. Under diagonal…

We examine the selective screenability property in topological groups. In the metrizable case we also give characterizations in terms of the Haver property and finitary Haver property respectively relative to left-invariant metrics. We…

In this paper the metric on the set of mixing actions of a countable infinite group is introduced so that the corresponding space is complete and separable. Keywords and phrases. Monotilable group, measure preserving transformations, mixing…

The paper studies strictly positive definite kernels on compact Riemannian manifolds. We state new conditions to ensure strict positive definiteness for general kernels and kernels with certain convolutional structure. We also state…

In this paper we characterize the projective modules over an arbitrary quantale, and then we apply such a characterization in order to define the K_0 group of a quantale. Then we study congruences of quantales and quantale modules by means…

A pointwise definable model is one in which every object is definable without parameters. In a model of set theory, this property strengthens V=HOD, but is not first-order expressible. Nevertheless, if ZFC is consistent, then there are…

We consider the sequence of powers of a positive definite function on a discrete group. Taking inspiration from random walks on compact quantum groups, we give several examples of situations where a cut-off phenomenon occurs for this…

We study functions f : (a,b) ---> R on open intervals in R with respect to various kinds of positive and negative definiteness conditions. We say that f is positive definite if the kernel f((x + y)/2) is positive definite. We call f…

The Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) has emerged as a fundamental concept in the study of wide Neural Networks. In particular, it is known that the positivity of the NTK is directly related to the memorization capacity of sufficiently wide…

Let $T$ be a theory which is t-minimal, meaning that with respect to some definable topology, a unary definable set $D \subseteq M$ has non-empty interior iff it is infinite. If $K$ is a definable field in $T$, then $K$ is finite or "large"…
