Given a finite metric, one can construct its tight span, a geometric object representing the metric. The dimension of a tight span encodes, among other things, the size of the space of explanatory trees for that metric; for instance, if the…
Consider the semialgebraic structure over the real field. More generally, let an ominimal structure be over a real closed field. We show that a definable metric space X with a definable metric d is embedded into a Euclidean space so that…
We prove that a countably compact space is monotonically retractable if and only if it has a full retractional skeleton. In particular, a compact space is monotonically retractable if and only if it is Corson. This gives an answer to a…
We study two complexity notions of groups - a computable Scott sentence and the index set of a group. Finding the exact complexity of one of them usually involves finding the complexity of the other, but this is not the case sometimes. J.…
We define unbounded twisted complexes and bicomplexes generalising the notion of a (bounded) twisted complex over a DG category [BK90]. These need to be considered relative to another DG category $B$ admitting countable direct sums and…
We identify a strong structural obstruction to Uniform Separation in constructive arithmetic. The mechanism is independent of semantic content; it emerges whenever two distinct evaluator predicates are sustained in parallel and inference…
We say a structure $M$ in a first-order language is indivisible if for every coloring of its universe in two colors, there is a monochromatic substructure $M'$ of $M$ such that $M'$ is isomorphic to $M$. Additionally, we say that $M$ is…
We study several extensions of linear-time and computation-tree temporal logics with quantifiers that allow for counting how often certain properties hold. For most of these extensions, the model-checking problem is undecidable, but we show…
For modules over a finite-dimensional algebra, there is a canonical one-to-one correspondence between the projective indecomposable modules and the simple modules. In this purely expository note, we take a straight-line path from the…
Stackability for finitely presented groups consists of a dynamical system that iteratively moves paths into a maximal tree in the Cayley graph. Combining with formal language theoretic restrictions yields auto- or algorithmic stackability,…
We show that there is a compact topological space carrying a measure which is not a weak* limit of finitely supported measures but is in the sequential closure of the set of such measures. We construct compact spaces with measures of…
We define an extension of predicate logic, called Binding Logic, where variables can be bound in terms and in propositions. We introduce a notion of model for this logic and prove a soundness and completeness theorem for it. This theorem is…
In this paper, we prove the number of countable models of a countable supersimple theory is either 1 or infinite. This result is an extension of Lachlan's theorem on a superstable theory.
\emph{Scalable spaces} are simply connected compact manifolds or finite complexes whose real cohomology algebra embeds in their algebra of (flat) differential forms. This is a rational homotopy invariant property and all scalable spaces are…
Argumentation frameworks, consisting of arguments and an attack relation representing conflicts, are fundamental for formally studying reasoning under conflicting information. We use methods from mathematical logic, specifically…
Proper classes of extensions of real field was defined and topological properties of these extensions were studied. These extensions can be connected, in this case such set is not closed under binary operations (addition and…
Model counting ($\#\text{SAT}$) is a fundamental yet $\#\text{P}$-complete problem central to probabilistic reasoning. In this work, we address \textit{incremental model counting}, where sequences of structurally similar formulas must be…
The intractability of any problem and the randomness of its solutions have an obvious intuitive connection. However, the challenge till now has been that there is no practical way to firmly establish if the solution to a problem is actually…
Let $A$ be a set of natural numbers. A set $B$, a set of natural numbers, is said to be an additive complement of the set $A$ if all sufficiently large natural numbers can be represented in the form $x+y$, where $x\in A$ and $y\in B$. This…
A Multiplicative-Exponential Linear Logic (MELL) proof-structure can be expanded into a set of resource proof-structures: its Taylor expansion. We introduce a new criterion characterizing (and deciding in the finite case) those sets of…
