Set-Membership Filter (SMF) has been extensively studied for state estimation in the presence of bounded noises with unknown statistics. Since it was first introduced in the 1960s, the studies on SMF have used the set-based description as…
We introduce two families of transcendental numbers which we call finite factorial (FF) and partially finite factorial (PFF) numbers respectively, with the former one being subfamily of the latter one. These numbers arise naturally from…
This paper examines in a new way some known facts about numerical semigroups especially when the number of minimal generators (that is the embedding dimension) is at most three and at least two minimal generators are coprime. For such…
Sylvester's criterion characterizes positive definite (PD) and positive semidefinite (PSD) matrices without the need of eigendecomposition. It states that a symmetric matrix is PD if and only if all of its leading principal minors are…
Non-malleable codes, introduced by Dziembowski, Pietrzak and Wichs (ICS 2010), encode messages $s$ in a manner so that tampering the codeword causes the decoder to either output $s$ or a message that is independent of $s$. While this is an…
We answer a question from Raghavan and Stepr{\=a}ns' paper on weakly tight families by showing that $\mathfrak{s} = {\mathfrak{s}}_{\omega, \omega}$. Then we use this to construct a completely separable maximal almost disjoint family under…
We develop a family of stabilized backward differentiation formula (sBDF) schemes of orders one through four for semilinear parabolic equations. The proposed methods are designed to achieve three properties that are rarely available…
We show that (with one possible exception) there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski dense.…
The existence of a full strong exceptional sequence in the derived category of a smooth quadric hypersurface was proved by Kapranov. In this paper, we present a skew generalization of this result. Namely, we show that if $S$ is a standard…
In this paper, we introduce a weakening of the Freiman isomorphisms between subsets of non necessarily abelian groups. Inspired by the breakthrough result of Kravitz, [14], on cyclic groups, as a first application, we prove that any subset…
We continue the project of the study of reverse mathematics principles inspired by cardinal invariants. In this article in particular we focus on principles encapsulating the existence of large families of objects that are in some sense…
Given integers $m$ and $f$, let $S_n(m,f)$ consist of all integers $e$ such that every $n$-vertex graph with $e$ edges contains an $m$-vertex induced subgraph with $f$ edges, and let $\sigma(m,f)=\limsup_{n\rightarrow\infty}…
In this article, we present a geometric theoretical analysis of semidefinite feasibility problems (SDFPs). This is done by decomposing a SDFP into smaller problems, in a way that preserves most feasibility properties of the original…
This paper extends the treatment of system equivalent flux density (SEFD) in Sutinjo, A. T. et al. (2021) (Paper I) to interferometric phased array telescopes. The objective is to develop an SEFD formula involving only the most fundamental…
The complex Lie superalgebras $\mathfrak{g}$ of type $D(2,1;a)$ - also denoted by $\mathfrak{osp}(4,2;a) $ - are usually considered for "non-singular" values of the parameter $a$, for which they are simple. In this paper we introduce five…
For a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ and a sequence $x \in \mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{N}}$, Kamae and Zamboni defined the maximal pattern complexity function $p^*_x(n)$ as a natural generalization of usual word complexity. They defined a…
We present a new probabilistic model to address semi-nonnegative matrix factorization (SNMF), called Skellam-SNMF. It is a hierarchical generative model consisting of prior components, Skellam-distributed hidden variables and observed data.…
We study maximal independent families (m.i.f.) in the projective hierarchy. We show that (a) the existence of a $\boldsymbol{\Sigma}^1_2$ m.i.f. is equivalent to the existence of a $\boldsymbol{\Pi}^1_1$ m.i.f., (b) in the Cohen model,…
We parametrize the set of irreducible characters of the Sylow $p$-subgroups of the Chevalley groups $\mathrm{D}_6(q)$ and $\mathrm{E}_6(q)$, for an arbitrary power $q$ of any prime $p$. In particular, we establish that the parametrization…
In nonadaptive combinatorial group testing (CGT), it is desirable to identify a small set of up to $d$ defectives from a large population of $n$ items with as few tests (i.e. large rate) and efficient identifying algorithm as possible. In…
