This paper investigates an inverse source problem for general semilinear stochastic hyperbolic equations. Motivated by the challenges arising from both randomness and nonlinearity, we develop a globally convergent iterative regularization…
Reverse thinking plays a crucial role in human reasoning. Humans can reason not only from a problem to a solution but also in reverse, i.e., start from the solution and reason towards the problem. This often enhances overall reasoning…
A real number $x$ is considered normal in an integer base $b \geq 2$ if its digit expansion in this base is ``equitable'', ensuring that for each $k \geq 1$, every ordered sequence of $k$ digits from $\{0, 1, \ldots, b-1\}$ occurs in the…
We apply methods of nonstandard mathematics in order to regard analytic geometry in a very different way. For example, complex spaces are seen to be the "standard part" of certain algebraic nonstandard schemes. We construct a category of…
The debate between scientific realism and anti-realism remains at a stalemate, making reconciliation seem hopeless. Yet, important work remains: exploring a common ground, even if only to uncover deeper points of disagreement and, ideally,…
We propose a new method to define anomaly scores and apply this to particle physics collider events. Anomalies can be either rare, meaning that these events are a minority in the normal dataset, or different, meaning they have values that…
Sharpness is an almost generic assumption in continuous optimization that bounds the distance from minima by objective function suboptimality. It facilitates the acceleration of first-order methods through restarts. However, sharpness…
The focus of this book is on the analysis of regularization methods for solving \emph{nonlinear inverse problems}. Specifically, we place a strong emphasis on techniques that incorporate supervised or unsupervised data derived from prior…
The purpose of this work is to investigate root finding problems defined on (quasi-)metric spaces, and ranging in Euclidean spaces. The motivation for this line of inquiry stems from recent models in biology and phylogenetics, where…
In previous literature, backward error analysis was used to find ordinary differential equations (ODEs) approximating the gradient descent trajectory. It was found that finite step sizes implicitly regularize solutions because terms…
The affine matrix rank minimization (AMRM) problem is to find a matrix of minimum rank that satisfies a given linear system constraint. It has many applications in some important areas such as control, recommender systems, matrix completion…
While an explicit basis is common in the study of Euclidean spaces, it is usually implied in the study of inertial relativistic systems. There are some conceptual advantages to including the basis in the study of special relativistic…
This article was motivated by the discovery of a potential new foundation for mainstream mathematics. The goals are to clarify the relationships between primitives, foundations, and deductive practice; to understand how to determine what…
Rosenbrock's theorem on polynomial system matrices is a classical result in linear systems theory that relates the Smith-McMillan form of a rational matrix $G$ with the Smith forms of an irreducible polynomial system matrix $P$ giving rise…
Restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs) are energy-based models analogous to the Ising model and are widely applied in statistical machine learning. The standard inverse Ising problem with a complete dataset requires computing both data and…
We use reverse mathematics to analyze "iterated jump" versions of the following four principles: the atomic model theorem with subenumerable types (AST), the diagonally noncomputable principle (DNR), weak weak K\H{o}nig's lemma (WWKL), and…
Within the gossamer numbers which extend the real numbers to include infinitesimals and infinities we prove the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). Riemann sums are also considered in the gossamer number system, and their non-uniqueness…
Nonrenormalizable quantum field theories require counterterms; and based on the hard-core interpretation of such interactions, it is initially argued, contrary to the standard view, that counterterms suggested by renormalized perturbation…
Theorem proving serves as a major testbed for evaluating complex reasoning abilities in large language models (LLMs). However, traditional automated theorem proving (ATP) approaches rely heavily on formal proof systems that poorly align…
Inverse optimization (Inverse optimal control) is the task of imputing a cost function such that given test points (trajectories) are (nearly) optimal with respect to the discovered cost. Prior methods in inverse optimization assume that…
