Asymmetric systematic errors arise when there is a non-linear dependence of a result on a nuisance parameter. Their combination is traditionally done by adding positive and negative deviations separately in quadrature. There is no sound…
Using resummation in perturbation theories at finite temperature or in non-equilibrium is unavoidable to obtain consistent results. Resummation, however, is often in conflict with renormalization. In this talk we give two possible solutions…
Detection of symmetry is vital to problem solving. Most of the problems of computer vision and computer graphics and machine intelligence in general, can be reduced to symmetry detection problem. Unstructured search problem can also be…
More precise unification predictions require going beyond the lowest order, including 2-loop running of the couplings and a correct treatment of threshold effects. Here we revised two different approaches to deal with light thresholds,…
Symmetry is an important factor in solving many constraint satisfaction problems. One common type of symmetry is when we have symmetric values. In a recent series of papers, we have studied methods to break value symmetries. Our results…
Nominal unification calculates substitutions that make terms involving binders equal modulo alpha-equivalence. Although nominal unification can be seen as equivalent to Miller's higher-order pattern unification, it has properties, such as…
A left-unilateral matrix equation is an algebraic equation of the form $$ a_0+a_1 x+a_2 x^2+... +a_n x^n=0 $$ where the coefficients $a_r$ and the unknown $x$ are square matrices of the same order and all coefficients are on the left…
Symmetries and isomorphisms play similar conceptual roles when we consider how models represent physical situations, but they are formally distinct, as two models related by symmetries are not typically isomorphic. I offer a rigorous…
Assembly planning is a fundamental problem in robotics and automation, which involves designing a sequence of motions to bring the separate constituent parts of a product into their final placement in the product. Assembly planning is…

We investigate the solutions of the second-order difference equation $u_{n+2}=(au_n)/(1+bu_nu_{n+1})$ using a group of transformations (Lie symmetries) that leaves the solutions invariant.
Methods for the reduction of the complexity of computational problems are presented, as well as their connections to renormalization, scaling, and irreversible statistical mechanics. Several statistically stationary cases are analyzed; for…
Lists, multisets, and sets are well-known data structures whose usefulness is widely recognized in various areas of Computer Science. These data structures have been analyzed from an axiomatic point of view with a parametric approach in (*)…
The so-called method of phase synchronization has been advocated in a number of papers as a way of decoupling a system of linear second-order differential equations by a linear transformation of coordinates and velocities. This is a rather…
In this paper, we investigate a problem dual to the unification problem, namely the Common Term (CT) problem for string rewriting systems. Our main motivation was in computing fixed points in systems, such as loop invariants in programming…
It is known that many equations of interest in Mathematical Physics display solutions which are only asymptotically invariant under transformations (e.g. scaling and/or translations) which are not symmetries of the considered equation. In…
Finding integer solutions to norm form equations is a classical Diophantine problem. Using the units of the associated coefficient ring, we can produce sequences of solutions to these equations. It is known that these solutions can be…
The paper addresses the quantization of minisuperspace cosmological models by studying a possible solution to the problem of time and time asymmetries in quantum cosmology. Since General Relativity does not have a privileged time variable…
