If the Continuum Hypothesis is false, it implies the existence of cardinalities between the integers and the real numbers. In studying these "cardinal characteristics of the continuum", it was discovered that many of the associated…
The main formal structures of Generalized Quantum Theory are summarized. Recent progress has sharpened some of the concepts, in particular the notion of an observable, the action of an observable on states (putting more emphasis on the role…
We develop a topological approach to prove the generalized Lax conjecture using the fact that determinants of sufficiently big symmetric linear pencils are able to express the rigidly convex sets of RZ polynomials of any degree $d$.…
We generalize the classical notion of adjoint of a linear operator and the Aron-Schottenloher notion of adjoint of a homogeneous polynomial. The general notion is shown to enjoy several properties enjoyed by the classical ones, nevertheless…
We give a variational proof of the existence and uniqueness of a convex cap with the given upper boundary. The proof uses the concavity of the total scalar curvature functional on the space of generalized convex caps. As a byproduct, we…
In this paper I present an (\in, =)-sentence, AC**, with only 5 quantifiers, that logically implies the axiom of choice, AC. Furthermore, using a weak fragment of ZF set theory, I prove that AC implies AC**. Up to now 6 quantifiers were the…
We prove the Schr\"oder case, i.e. the case $\langle \cdot,e_{n-d}h_d \rangle$, of the conjecture of Haglund, Remmel and Wilson (Haglund et al. 2018) for $\Delta_{h_m}\Delta_{e_{n-k-1}}'e_n$ in terms of decorated partially labelled Dyck…
This tutorial deal with the Axiom of Choice and some of its applications to topics related to Computer Science. We will see that the Axiom of Choice is equivalent to some well-known proof principles like Zorn's Lemma or Tuckey's Maximality…
We introduce a notion of proper morphism for schematic finite spaces and prove the analogue of Grothendieck's finiteness theorem for it by means of the classic result for schemes and general descent arguments. This result also generalizes…
We present gradual type theory, a logic and type theory for call-by-name gradual typing. We define the central constructions of gradual typing (the dynamic type, type casts and type error) in a novel way, by universal properties relative to…
A generalized constitutive relation error is proposed in an analogous form to Fenchel-Young inequality on the basis of the key idea of Legendre-Fenchel duality theory. The generalized constitutive relation error is linked with the global…
Cirquent calculus is a novel proof theory permitting component-sharing between logical expressions. Using it, the predecessor article "Elementary-base cirquent calculus I: Parallel and choice connectives" built the sound and complete…
A generalized canonical form of multi-time dynamical theories is proposed. This form is a starting point for a modified canonical quantization procedure of theories based on a quantum version of the action principle. As an example, the…
We present a conjecture generalizing the Cauchy formula for Macdonald polynomials. This conjecture encodes the mixed Hodge polynomials of the character varieties of representations of the fundamental group of a Riemann surface of genus g to…
In this paper a mathematically precise global (i.e. not the usual local) approach is presented to the variational principles of general relativistic classical field theories. Problems of the classic (usual) approaches are also discussed in…
The validity of the so-called "typicality" argument for a generalised microcanonical ensemble proposed recently is examined.
We state a new generic absoluteness principle, and use Shelah's memory iteration technique to show that it is consistent with the large continuum.
The aim of this paper is to generalize the hyperplane section theorem of Gurjar to arbitrary (local) analytic varieties even if the intersection with of hyperplanes is not necessarily isolated. In case of formal varieties, we generalize the…
Taking a representation-theoretic viewpoint, we construct a continuous associahedron motivated by the realization of the generalized associahedron in the physical setting. We show that our associahedron shares important properties with the…
We extend our approach to abstract syntax (with binding constructions) through modules and linearity. First we give a new general definition of arity, yielding the companion notion of signature. Then we obtain a modularity result as…
