A new, extended nonlinear framework of the ordinary real analysis incorporating a novel concept of {\em duality structure} and its applications into various nonlinear dynamical problems is presented. The duality structure is an asymptotic…
Previous work has shown that reasoning with real-time temporal logics is often simpler when restricted to models with bounded variability---where no more than v events may occur every V time units, for given v, V. When reasoning about…
We investigate a data-driven approach to constructing uncertainty sets for robust optimization problems, where the uncertain problem parameters are modeled as random variables whose joint probability distribution is not known. Relying only…
We introduce the first metric for evaluating disentanglement at individual hierarchy levels of a structured latent representation. Applied to object-centric generative models, this offers a systematic, unified approach to evaluating (i)…
This paper studies the structural controllability of a class of uncertain switched linear systems, where the parameters of subsystems state matrices are either unknown or zero. The structural controllability is a generalization of the…
We consider microstructure as an arbitrary contamination of the underlying latent securities price, through a Markov kernel $Q$. Special cases include additive error, rounding and combinations thereof. Our main result is that, subject to…
Let \Lambda be a finite subset of Z^d. We study the following sandpile model on \Lambda. The height at any given vertex x of \Lambda is a positive real number, and additions are uniformly distributed on some interval [a,b], which is a…
Recently, a framework for controller design of sampled-data nonlinear systems via their approximate discrete-time models has been proposed in the literature. In this paper we develop novel tools that can be used within this framework and…
This paper discusses a general and useful stability principle which, roughly speaking, says that given a uniformly continuous function defined on an arbitrary metric space, if the function is bounded on the constraint set and we slightly…
The fine-structure constant alpha approximately 1/137 is traditionally regarded as a fundamental dimensionless parameter. I argue instead that alpha is a scaled quantity that arises only where the structural scales contributed by classical…
Statistical inference for stochastic block models typically relies on the spectrum of the normalized adjacency matrix $\A^*$. In practice, the true probability matrix $\mathbf{B}$ is unknown and must be replaced by a plug-in estimator…
We show that the structured singular value of a real matrix with respect to five full complex uncertainty blocks equals its convex upper bound. This is done by formulating the equality conditions as a feasibility SDP and invoking a result…
In order to improve the fault diagnosis capability of multivariate statistical methods, this article introduces a fault isolation framework based on structured sparsity modeling. The developed method relies on the reconstruction based…
We consider nonlinear delay differential and renewal equations with infinite delay. We extend the work of Gyllenberg et al, Appl. Math. Comput. (2018) by introducing a unifying abstract framework, and derive a finite-dimensional…
Missing data and confounding are two problems researchers face in observational studies for comparative effectiveness. Williamson et al. (2012) recently proposed a unified approach to handle both issues concurrently using a multiply-robust…
In heterogeneous network systems such as ecological and social networks, structural stability depends on how connectivity changes under node removal, as different removal sequences can trigger distinct modes of systemic collapse. While…
Different types of reasoning impose different structural demands on representational systems, yet no systematic account of these demands exists across psychology, AI, and philosophy of mind. I propose a framework identifying four structural…
In this work we analyze complex scalar fields using a new framework where the object of noncommutativity $\theta^{\mu\nu}$ represents independent degrees of freedom. In a first quantized formalism, $\theta^{\mu\nu}$ and its canonical…
Deep latent variable models learn condensed representations of data that, hopefully, reflect the inner workings of the studied phenomena. Unfortunately, these latent representations are not statistically identifiable, meaning they cannot be…
