Socio-economic inequalities are manifested in different aspects of our social life. We discuss various aspects, beginning with the evolutionary and historical origins, and discussing the major issues from the social and economic point of…
We review and develop two little known results on the equality of mixed partial derivatives which can be considered the best results so far available in their respective domains. The former, due to Mikusi\'nski and his school, deals with…
In this article we establish some fixed point (known also as critical point, invariant point) theorems in quasi-metric spaces. Our results unify and further extend in some regards the fixed point theorem proposed by Dancs et al. (1983), the…
We generalize an inequality conjectured by Pohst in 1977 and recently proved by the author and independently by Battistoni and Molteni. This new inequality improves a bound for the regulator in terms of the discriminant for totally real…
Some new reverses for the generalised triangle inequality in inner product spaces and applications are given. Applications in connection to the Schwarz inequality are provided as well.
There are many formulations of problems that have been proven to be equivalent to the Riemann Hypothesis in modern mathematics. In this paper we look at the formulation of an inequality derived by Robin in 1984 that proves the Riemann…
Some reverses for the generalised triangle inequality in complex inner product spaces that improve the classical Diaz-Metcalf results and applications are given.
Impossibility results show that important fairness measures (independence, separation, sufficiency) cannot be satisfied at the same time under reasonable assumptions. This paper explores whether we can satisfy and/or improve these fairness…
We explore the fairness issue that arises in recommender systems. Biased data due to inherent stereotypes of particular groups (e.g., male students' average rating on mathematics is often higher than that on humanities, and vice versa for…
This paper critically examines arguments against independence, a measure of group fairness also known as statistical parity and as demographic parity. In recent discussions of fairness in computer science, some have maintained that…
This paper is concerned with the study of diagonal Diophantine inequalities of fractional degree $ \theta ,$ where $ \theta >2$ is real and non-integral. For fixed non-zero real numbers $ \lambda_i $ not all of the same sign we write…
Some sharp inequalities between the triangular ratio metric and the Cassinian metric are proved in the unit ball.
Khabibullin's conjecture for integral inequalities has two numeric parameters $n$ and $\alpha$ in its statement, $n$ being a positive integer and $\alpha$ being a positive real number. This conjecture is already proved in the case where…
The problem of arriving at a principled method of pricing goods and services was very satisfactorily solved for conventional goods; however, this solution is not applicable to digital goods. This paper studies pricing of a special class of…
Consider the following noncommutative arithmetic-geometric mean inequality: given positive-semidefinite matrices $\mathbf{A}_1, \dots, \mathbf{A}_n$, the following holds for each integer $m \leq n$: $$ \frac{1}{n^m}\sum_{j_1, j_2, \dots,…
In a recent post on the Seqfan list the third author proposed a conjecture concerning the summatory function of odious numbers (i.e., of numbers whose sum of binary digits is odd), and its analog for evil numbers (i.e., of numbers whose sum…
In his book `Physics and Philosophy', Heisenberg suggested that the quantum world is one of ``potentialities or possibilities'' and that the classical realm is one of ``things or facts''. After ascertaining that his categories most…
Paul Erdos claimed that mathematics is not yet ready to settle the 3x+1 conjecture. I agree, but very soon it will be! With the exponential growth of computer-generated mathematics, we (or rather our silicon brethrern) would have a shot at…
\"{O}zavsar and Cevikel(Fixed point of multiplicative contraction mappings on multiplicative metric space.arXiv:1205.5131v1 [math.GN] 23 may 2012)initiated the concept of the multiplicative metric space in such a way that the usual…
In this work, a generalization of the well known Bernoulli inequality is obtained by using the theory of discrete fractional calculus. As far as we know our approach is novel.
