Number Decision Diagrams (NDD) provide a natural finite symbolic representation for regular set of integer vectors encoded as strings of digit vectors (least or most significant digit first). The convex hull of the set of vectors…
We propose a new type of quantum computer which is used to prove a spectral representation for a class F of computable sets. When S in F codes the theorems of a formal system, the quantum computer produces through measurement all theorems…
Traditionally, formal languages are defined as sets of words. More recently, the alternative coalgebraic or coinductive representation as infinite tries, i.e., prefix trees branching over the alphabet, has been used to obtain compact and…
We explore a general method based on trees of elementary submodels in order to present highly simplified proofs to numerous results in infinite combinatorics. While countable elementary submodels have been employed in such settings already,…
We study some essential arithmetic properties of a new tree-based number representation, {\em hereditarily binary numbers}, defined by applying recursively run-length encoding of bijective base-2 digits. Our representation expresses giant…
A graph $G$ is defined encapsulating the number theoretic notion of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. We then provide a graph theoretic approach to the fundamental results on the coprimality of two natural numbers, through the use of…
The directions of an infinite graph $G$ are a tangle-like description of its ends: they are choice functions that choose compatibly for all finite vertex sets $X\subseteq V(G)$ a component of $G-X$. Although every direction is induced by a…
We consider a construction of the fundamental spin representations of the simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{so}(n)$ in terms of binary arithmetic of fixed width integers. This gives the spin matrices as a Lie subalgebra of a…
We address the problem of representing dynamic graphs using $k^2$-trees. The $k^2$-tree data structure is one of the succinct data structures proposed for representing static graphs, and binary relations in general. It relies on compact…
We present a performant and rigorous algorithm for certifying that a matrix is close to being a projection onto an irreducible subspace of a given group representation. This addresses a problem arising when one seeks solutions to…
Compact representations of objects is a common concept in computer science. Automated planning can be viewed as a case of this concept: a planning instance is a compact implicit representation of a graph and the problem is to find a path (a…
Real numbers do not admit an extensional procedure for observing discrete information, such as the first digit of its decimal expansion, because every extensional, computable map from the reals to the integers is constant, as is well known.…
e use Prolog as a flexible meta-language to provide executable specifications of some fundamental mathematical objects and their transformations. In the process, isomorphisms are unraveled between natural numbers and combinatorial objects…
An algorithm for irreducible decomposition of representations of finite groups over fields of characteristic zero is described. The algorithm uses the fact that the decomposition induces a partition of the invariant inner product into a…
We consider the question of which nonconvex sets can be represented exactly as the feasible sets of mixed-integer convex optimization problems. We state the first complete characterization for the case when the number of possible integer…
We present a form of algebraic reasoning for computational objects which are expressed as graphs. Edges describe the flow of data between primitive operations which are represented by vertices. These graphs have an interface made of…
We present an explicit bijection between finite-decimal real numbers and natural numbers ($\mathbb{N} = \{1, 2, 3, ...\}$) using a systematic 4-tuple parametrization with closed-form mathematical formulas for enumeration. Our enumeration…
We propose a new constructive model of the real continuum based on the notion of fractal definability. Rather than assuming the continuum as a completed uncountable totality, we view it as the cumulative result of a vast space of stratified…
Classical set theory constructs the continuum via the power set P(N), thereby postulating an uncountable totality. However, constructive and computability-based approaches reveal that no formal system with countable syntax can generate all…
We introduce the continued logarithm representation of real numbers and prove results on the occurrence and frequency of digits with respect to this representation
