Expressions are not functions. Confusing the two concepts or failing to define the function that is computed by an expression weakens the rigour of interval arithmetic. We give such a definition and continue with the required re-statements…

A cap of spherical radius $\alpha$ on a unit $d$-sphere $S$ is the set of points within spherical distance $\alpha$ from a given point on the sphere. Let $\mathcal F$ be a finite set of caps lying on $S$. We prove that if no hyperplane…

Rationals are known to form interesting and computationally rich structures, such as Farey sequences and infinite trees. Little attention is being paid to more general, systematic exposition of the basic properties of fractions as a set.…

This review is devoted to the Multiple Point Principle (MPP), according to which several vacuum states with the same energy density exist in Nature. The MPP is implemented to the Standard Model (SM), Family replicated gauge group model…

Let $P$ be a positive rational number. Call a function $f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ to have $\textit{finite gaps property mod}$ $P$ if the following holds: for any positive irrational $\alpha$ and positive integer $M$, when the…

Relational Databases are universally conceived as an advance over their predecessors Network and Hierarchical models. Superior in every querying respect, they turned out to be surprisingly incomplete when modeling transitive dependencies.…

We initiate the study of a new parameterization of graph problems. In a multiple interval representation of a graph, each vertex is associated to at least one interval of the real line, with an edge between two vertices if and only if an…

Given an imaginary quadratic number field $K$ with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$, we are interested in the asymptotic \emph{distance to nearest neighbour} (or \emph{gap}) statistic of complex Farey fractions $\frac{p}{q}$, with $p,q \in…

We prove an explicit analogue of Legendre's conjecture for almost primes. Namely, for every integer $n \geq 1$, the interval $(n^2,(n+1)^2)$ contains an integer having at most $3$ prime factors, counted with multiplicity. This improves the…

Let $\omega$ be a factor of Doubling sequence $D_\infty=x_1x_2\cdots$, then it occurs in the sequence infinitely many times. Let $\omega_p$ be the $p$-th occurrence of $\omega$ and $G_p(\omega)$ be the gap between $\omega_p$ and…

In this paper, we extend recent results about the distribution of even and odd gaps of a numerical semigroup. We find that, for any numerical semigroup, the distribution can be computed in terms of the numbers of or the sums of odd and even…

In this paper we prove a basic theorem which says that if f : F_p^n -> [0,1] has the property that ||f^||_(1/3) is not too ``large''(actually, it also holds for quasinorms 1/2-\delta in place of 1/3), and E(f) = p^{-n} sum_m f(m) is not too…

We show that the total entropy production in stochastic processes with odd-parity variables (under time reversal) is separated into three parts, only two of which satisfy the integral fluctuation theorems in general. One is the usual excess…

For a fixed positive integer $d$ and a small real $p>0$, sample a $p$-random subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}^d$, and let $S:=\langle A \rangle$ be the generalized numerical semigroup generated by $A$. We show that with high…

Non-linear renewal theory is extended to include random walks perturbed by both a slowly changing sequence and a stationary one. Main results include a version of the Key Renewal Theorem, a derivation of the limiting distribution of the…

A 1971 conjecture of Graham (later repeated by Erd\H{o}s and Graham) asserts that every set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p \setminus \{0\}$ has an ordering whose partial sums are all distinct. We prove this conjecture for sets of size $|A|…

We develop a novel sampling theorem for functions defined on the three-dimensional rotation group SO(3) by connecting the rotation group to the three-torus through a periodic extension. Our sampling theorem requires $4L^3$ samples to…

In Gapped String Indexing, the goal is to compactly represent a string $S$ of length $n$ such that for any query consisting of two strings $P_1$ and $P_2$, called patterns, and an integer interval $[\alpha, \beta]$, called gap range, we can…

It is known that every homeomorphism of the plane has a fixed point in a non-separating, invariant subcontinuum. Easy examples show that a branched covering map of the plane can be periodic point free. In this paper we show that any…

We consider the restriction of interval exchange transformations to algebraic number fields, which leads to maps on lattices. We characterize renormalizability arithmetically, and study its relationships with a geometrical quantity that we…
