Methods for choosing from a set of options are often based on a strict partial order on these options, or on a set of such partial orders. I here provide a very general axiomatic characterisation for choice functions of this form. It…
We propose a necessary and sufficient condition for a real-valued function on the real line to be a characteristic function of a probability measures. The statement is given in terms of harmonic functions and completely monotonic functions.
We extend the hyperplane arrangement framework for neural network expressivity from the braid to discriminantal arrangements. Compatible piecewise linear functions are characterized by circuit relations and admit a matroidal description via…
The classical property of associativity is very often considered in aggregation function theory and fuzzy logic. In this paper we provide axiomatizations of various classes of preassociative functions, where preassociativity is a…
The paper studies complementary choice functions, i.e. monotonic and consistent choice functions. Such choice functions were introduced and used in the work \cite{RY} for investigation of matchings with complementary contracts. Three…
We study realizable values of the length function for unital possibly nonassociative algebras of a given dimension. To do this we apply the method of characteristic sequences and establish sufficient conditions of realisability for a given…
We study a function, which is a weighted sum of the squares of the distances of an arbitrary point to the sidelines of a triangle. The given weights, considered as barycentric coordinates, determine a point $M$. We prove that the function…
Barycentric averaging is a principled way of summarizing populations of measures. Existing algorithms for estimating barycenters typically parametrize them as weighted sums of Diracs and optimize their weights and/or locations. However,…
In this paper we provide visual characterization of associative quasitrivial nondecreasing operations on finite chains. We also provide a characterization of bisymmetric quasitrivial nondecreasing binary operations on finite chains.…
A method of estimating sums of multiplicative functions braided with Dirichlet characters is demonstrated, leading to a taxonomy of the characters for which such sums are large.
Given a strictly positive measure, we characterize inner semicontinuous solid convex-valued mappings for which continuous functions which are selections almost everywhere are selections. This class contains continuous mappings as well as…
Some binary quadratic operads are endowed with anticyclic structures and their characteristic functions as anticyclic operads are determined, or conjectured in one case.
In this paper, we define a subclass of sense-preserving harmonic functions associated with a class of analytic functions satisfying a differential inequality. We then establish a close relation between both subclasses. Further, we obtain…
An analysis of the characteristic function of Gaussian quadratic forms is presented in [1] to study the performance of multichannel communication systems. This technical report reviews this analysis, obtaining alternative expressions to…
We give an elementary characterization of rational functions among meromorphic functions in the complex plane.
We present a survey of some of our recent results on Bayesian nonparametric inference for a multitude of stochastic processes. The common feature is that the prior distribution in the cases considered is on suitable sets of piecewise…
A characterization of multiplicative (and additive) arithmetical functions is given. Using this characterization, we show that the group of multiplicative arithmetical functions is isomorphic to the group of additive arithmetical functions.
We study the distributional behavior of additive arithmetic functions evaluated at integers drawn from the harmonic distribution. Our main result shows that a broad family of such functions converges in law to conditioned Dickman-type…
This article investigates correlational properties of two-dimensional chaotic maps on the unit circle. We give analytical forms of higher-order covariances. We derive the characteristic function of their simultaneous and lagged ergodic…
We give complete, finite quasiequational axiomatisations for algebras of unary partial functions under the operations of composition, domain, antidomain, range and intersection. This completes the extensive programme of classifying algebras…
