We introduce the notion of a combinatorial inverse system in non-commutative variables. We present two important examples, some conjectures and results. These conjectures and results were suggested and supported by computer investigations.

The goal of this paper is to formalize the notion of The Compositional Integral in The Complex Plane. We prove a convergence theorem guaranteeing its existence. We prove an analogue of Cauchy's Integral Theorem--and suggest an approach at…

We prove a common extension of Bang's and Kadets' lemmas for contact pairs, in the spirit of the Colourful Carath\'eodory Theorem. We also formulate a generalized version of the affine plank problem and prove it under special assumptions.…

We extend standard k.p theory to take into account periodic perturbations which are rapidly oscillating with a wavelength of a few lattice constants. Our general formalism allows us to explicitly consider the Bragg reflections due to the…

Generalized numberings are an extension of Ershov's notion of numbering, based on partial combinatory algebra (pca) instead of the natural numbers. We study various algebraic properties of generalized numberings, relating properties of the…

The problem of bi-equivariant extension of continuous maps of binary $G$-spaces is considered. The concept of a structural map of distributive binary $G$-spaces is introduced, and a theorem on the bi-equivariant extension of structural maps…

We extend to a scheme-theoretic context the notion of a combinatorial differential form, due to A.Kock in the framework of synthetic differential geometry. We show that group-valued combinatorial forms on a scheme may be identified, under…

We present a hierarchical Bayesian learning approach to infer jointly sparse parameter vectors from multiple measurement vectors. Our model uses separate conditionally Gaussian priors for each parameter vector and common gamma-distributed…

We derive maps relating currents and their divergences in non-abelian U(N) noncommutative gauge theory with the corresponding expressions in the ordinary (commutative) description. For the U(1) theory, in the slowly-varying-field…

We generalize the van Kampen theorem for unions of non-connected spaces, due to R. Brown and A. R. Salleh, to the context where families of subspaces of a space B are replaced by a locally sectionable map to B.

We present a number of combinatorial characterizations of K-matrices. This extends a theorem of Fiedler and Ptak on linear-algebraic characterizations of K-matrices to the setting of oriented matroids. Our proof is elementary and simplifies…

We study the statistical properties of piecewise expanding maps in the general setting of metric measure spaces. We provide sufficient conditions for exponential mixing of such systems with explicit estimates on the constants. We also…

This paper will describe how combinatorial interpretations can help us understand the algebraic structure of two aspects of perturbative quantum field theory, namely analytic Dyson-Schwinger equations and periods of scalar Feynman graphs.…

We prove several results from different areas of extremal combinatorics, including complete or partial solutions to a number of open problems. These results, coming mainly from extremal graph theory and Ramsey theory, have been collected…

Current literature on posterior approximation for Bayesian inference offers many alternative methods. Does our chosen approximation scheme work well on the observed data? The best existing generic diagnostic tools treating this kind of…

Based on Beurling's theory of balayage, we develop the theory of non-uniform sampling in the context of the theory of frames for the settings of the Short Time Fourier Transform and pseudo-differential operators. There is sufficient…

A multivariate Gauss-Lucas theorem is proved, sharpening and generalizing previous results on this topic. The theorem is stated in terms of a seemingly new notion of convexity. Applications to multivariate stable polynomials are given.

This paper develops a new empirical Bayesian inference algorithm for solving a linear inverse problem given multiple measurement vectors (MMV) of under-sampled and noisy observable data. Specifically, by exploiting the joint sparsity across…

An introduction is given to the Littlewood-Richardson rule, and various combinatorial constructions related to it. We present a proof based on tableau switching, dual equivalence, and coplactic operations. We conclude with a section…

The aim of these notes is to present a self contained account of discrete weak KAM theory. Put aside the intrinsic elegance of this theory, it is also a toy model for classical weak KAM theory, where many technical difficulties disappear,…
