Let $f$ be a distribution (generalised function) on the real line. If there is a continuous function $F$ with real limits at infinity such that $F'=f$ (distributional derivative) then the distributional integral of $f$ is defined as…
The $|\Delta I|=1/2$ rule in non-leptonic decays of hyperons can be naturally understood by postulating a priori mixed physical hadrons, along with the isospin invariance of the responsible transition operator. It is shown that this…
For time-inconsistent stochastic controls in discrete time and finite horizon, an open problem in Bj\"ork and Murgoci (Finance Stoch, 2014) is the existence of an equilibrium control. A nonrandomized Borel measurable Markov equilibrium…
We consider a class of monotone systems in which the control signal multiplies the state. Among other applications, such bilinear systems can be used to model the evolutionary dynamics of HIV in the presence of combination drug therapy. For…
The entropy $h(T_\alpha)$ of $\alpha$-continued fraction transformations is known to be locally monotone outside a closed, totally disconnected set $\EE$. We will exploit the explicit description of the fractal structure of $\EE$ to…
An optimal control problem with a time-parameter is considered. The functional to be optimized includes the maximum over time-horizon reached by a function of the state variable, and so an $L^\infty$-term. In addition to the classical…
An ill-defined integral equation for modeling the mass-spectrum of mesons is regulated with an additional but unphysical parameter. This parameter dependance is removed by renormalization. Illustrative graphical examples are given.
In this note we establish several inequalities and monotonicity properties for the free energy of directed polymers under certain stochastic orders: the usual stochastic order, the Laplace transform order and the convex order. For the…
In this paper we consider a broad class of infinite horizon discrete-time optimal control models that involve a nonnegative cost function and an affine mapping in their dynamic programming equation. They include as special cases classical…
Cyclic monotone independence is an algebraic notion of noncommutative independence, introduced in the study of multi-matrix random matrix models with small rank. Its algebraic form turns out to be surprisingly close to monotone…
We obtain sharp bounds for the monotonic rearrangement operator from "dyadic-type" classes to "continuous". In particular, for the $\mathrm{BMO}$ space and Muckenhoupt classes. The idea is to connect the problem with a simple geometric…
A widely used stochastic plate equation is the classical plate equation perturbed by a term of It\^o's integral. However, it is known that this equation is not exactly controllable even if the controls are effective everywhere in both the…
Let's fix a reasonable subsystem $T$ of arithmetic; why are natural extensions of $T$ pre-well-ordered by consistency strength? In previous work, an approach to this question was proposed. The goal of this work was to classify the recursive…
A number of recent works have sought to generalize the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of probability-preserving transformations to the setting of Markov operators acting on the integrable functions on a probability space $(X,\mu)$. These have…
Controlling the monotonicity and growth of Leray--Lions' operators including the $p$-Laplacian plays a fundamental role in the theory of existence and regularity of solutions to second order nonlinear PDE. We collect, correct, and supply…
The desired shifts of the boundaries of spectral allowed zones of periodical systems are demonstrated. In particular, the phenomenon of merging neighbor allowed zones is exhibited and its simple explanation is given. It is also shown how to…
Stochastic control problems in finance often involve complex controls at discrete times. As a result numerically solving such problems, for example using methods based on partial differential or integro-differential equations, inevitably…
We build a combinatorial invariant, called the spectral monodromy from the spectrum of a non-selfadjoint h -pseudodifferential operator with two degrees of freedom in the semi-classical limit. We treat small non-selfadjoint perturbation of…
We define and study an $ \omega $-ary operation on the class of the ordinals, which is strictly monotone in many significant cases (by an elementary argument, there is no fully strictly monotone infinitary operation on ordinals). We compare…
The paper is concerned with a scalar balance law, where the source term depends on a control function $\alpha(t)$. Given a control $\alpha\in \mathbf{L}^\infty\bigl([0,T]\bigr)$, it is proved that, for generic initial data $\bar u \in…
