A cyclic order may be thought of informally as a way to seat people around a table, perhaps for a game of chance or for dinner. Given a set of agents such as $\{A,B,C\}$, we can formalize this by defining a cyclic order as a permutation or…
A sequence is called $C$-finite if it satisfies a linear recurrence with constant coefficients. We study sequences which satisfy a linear recurrence with $C$-finite coefficients. Recently, it was shown that such $C^2$-finite sequences…
The space rotation invariance hypothesis is examined. The basic space-time properties and the physical object description from this point of view are considered. An $\omega$-invariance as an approximation of the space rotation invariance…
We define recurrence matrices and study a few properties (links with automatic sequences, branch groups etc.) of them.
Machines whose main purpose is to permute and sort data are studied. The sets of permutations that can arise are analysed by means of finite automata and avoided pattern techniques. Conditions are given for these sets being enumerated by…
In a totally ordered set the notion of sorting a finite sequence is defined through a suitable permutation of the sequence's indices. In this paper we prove a simple formula that explicitly describes how the elements of a sequence are…
We describe an approximate rational arithmetic with round-off errors (both absolute and relative) controlled by the user. The rounding procedure is based on the continued fraction expansion of real numbers. Results of computer experiments…
We consider a mechanical system consisting of an infinite rod (a straight line) and a ball (a massless point) on the plane. The rod rotates uniformly around one of its points. The ball is reflected elastically when colliding with the rod…
Many applications require robustness, or ideally invariance, of neural networks to certain transformations of input data. Most commonly, this requirement is addressed by training data augmentation, using adversarial training, or defining…
A consecutive pattern in a permutation $\pi$ is another permutation $\sigma$ determined by the relative order of a subsequence of contiguous entries of $\pi$. Traditional notions such as descents, runs and peaks can be viewed as particular…
Looking at some monoids and (semi)rings (natural numbers, integers and p-adic integers), and more generally, residually finite algebras (in a strong sense), we prove the equivalence of two ways for a function on such an algebra to behave…
Iterative regularization is a classic idea in regularization theory, that has recently become popular in machine learning. On the one hand, it allows to design efficient algorithms controlling at the same time numerical and statistical…
Recurrence is a fundamental characteristic of dynamical systems with complicated behavior. Understanding the inner structure of recurrence is challenging, especially if the system has many degrees of freedom and is subject to noise. We…
A new method to represent and approximate rotation matrices is introduced. The method represents approximations of a rotation matrix $Q$ with linearithmic complexity, i.e. with $\frac{1}{2}n\lg(n)$ rotations over pairs of coordinates,…
We study the classical dynamics of spinning particles using scattering amplitudes and eikonal exponentiation. We show that observables are determined by a simple algorithm. A wealth of complexity arises in perturbation theory as positions,…
Understanding neutrino oscillations in matter requires a non-trivial diagonalization of the Hamiltonian. As the exact solution is very complicated, many approximation schemes have been pursued. Here we show that one scheme, systematically…
Number sequences defined by a linear recursion relation are studied by means of generating functions. Indices of the terms in the recursion relation have arbitrary differenses. In addition to formulas for the nth term an algorithm is…
Any nonsingular function of spin j matrices always reduces to a matrix polynomial of order 2j. The challenge is to find a convenient form for the coefficients of the matrix polynomial. The theory of biorthogonal systems is a useful…
Long-term data-driven studies have become indispensable in many areas of science. Often, the data formats, structures and semantics of data change over time, the data sets evolve. Therefore, studies over several decades in particular have…
To render a sequence testable, namely capable of identifying and detecting errors, it is necessary to apply a transformation that increases its length by introducing statistical dependence among symbols, as commonly exemplified by the…
