This work is devoted to a systematic exposition of the dynamics of a rigid body, considered as a system with kinematic constraints. Having accepted the variational problem in accordance with this, we no longer need any additional postulates…
We overview the recent results on the shift of the spectrum and norm bounds for variation of spectral subspaces of a Hermitian operator under an additive Hermitian perturbation. Along with the known results, we present a new subspace…
It is shown that an arbitrary singular Lagrangian theory (with first and second class constraints up to $N$-th stage in the Hamiltonian formulation) can be reformulated as a theory with at most third-stage constraints. The corresponding…
Phenomena with a constrained sample space appear frequently in practice. This is the case e.g. with strictly positive data and with compositional data, like percentages and the like. If the natural measure of difference is not the absolute…
It is shown that the ability of the interval probability representation to capture epistemological independence is severely limited. Two events are epistemologically independent if knowledge of the first event does not alter belief (i.e.,…
In this paper we discuss how the notion of subgeometric ergodicity in Markov chain theory can be exploited to study stationarity and ergodicity of nonlinear time series models. Subgeometric ergodicity means that the transition probability…
In Euclidean space there is a trivial upper bound on the maximum length of a compound "walk" built up of variable-length jumps, and a considerably less trivial lower bound on its minimum length. The existence of this non-trivial lower bound…
Statistical mechanics describes interaction between particles of a physical system. Particle properties of the system can be modelled with a random field on a lattice and studied at different distance scales using renormalization group…
By using nonstandard analysis, we prove embeddability properties of difference sets $A-B$ of sets of integers. (A set $A$ is "embeddable" into $B$ if every finite configuration of $A$ has shifted copies in $B$.) As corollaries of our main…
Motivated by the manifold hypothesis, which states that data with a high extrinsic dimension may yet have a low intrinsic dimension, we develop refined statistical bounds for entropic optimal transport that are sensitive to the intrinsic…
Charges associated with gauge symmetries are defined on boundaries of spacetimes. But these constructions typically involve divergent quantities when considering asymptotic boundaries. Different prescriptions exist to address this problem,…
The paper is devoted to a geometrical interpretation of gauge invariance in terms of the formalism of field theory in compact space-time dimensions [arXiv:0903.3680]. In this formalism, the kinematic information of an interacting elementary…
We introduce a transformation of linear Pfaffian systems, which we call the middle Laplace transform, as a formulation of the Laplace transform from the perspective of Katz theory. While the definition of the middle Laplace transform is…
We introduce joint exclusivity (JE), a form of extremal negative dependence that extends the classical notion of mutual exclusivity. The JE structure is analytically tractable and is defined by the exclusion of the interior of the…
We analyze the density and size dependence of the relaxation time for kinetically constrained spin models (KCSM) intensively studied in the physical literature as simple models sharing some of the features of a glass transition. KCSM are…
The structure of classical electrodynamics based on the variational principle together with causality and space-time homogeneity is analyzed. It is proved that in this case the 4-potentials are defined uniquely. On the other hand, the…
It has been established under very general conditions that the ergodic properties of Markov processes are inherited by their conditional distributions given partial information. While the existing theory provides a rather complete picture…
A subshift with linear block complexity has at most countably many ergodic measures, and we continue of the study of the relation between such complexity and the invariant measures. By constructing minimal subshifts whose block complexity…
Requirement that the vacuum expectation values of Higgs fields immediately after the phase transition be large enough imposes constraints upon the parameters of the minimal supersymmetric model. In particular, one obtains the upper bound on…
We provide sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of an invariant measure of a Markov process as well as for the weak convergence of transition probabilities to the invariant measure. Our conditions are formulated in terms of generalized…
