A comprehensive review of the literature on crossover design is needed to highlight its evolution, applications, and methodological advancements across various fields. Given its widespread use in clinical trials and other research domains,…
The Rutherford scattering experiment, conceived by Ernest Rutherford and carried out by Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, provided the first direct evidence of a compact atomic nucleus, fundamentally altering the understanding of atomic…
We begin with personal notes describing the atmosphere of "Bogoliubov renormalization group" birth. Then we expose the history of RG discovery in the QFT and of the RG method devising in the mid-fifties. The third part is devoted to…
Since the introduction of the Marchenko method in geophysics, many variants have been developed. Using a compact unified notation, we review redatuming by multidimensional deconvolution and by double focusing, virtual seismology, double…
In this note research and publications by Zdzis{\l}aw Pawlak and his collaborators from 1970s and 1981 are recalled. Focus is placed on the sources of inspiration which one can identify on the basis of those publications. Finally,…
World-line quantum Monte Carlo methods are reviewed with an emphasis on breakthroughs made in recent years. In particular, three algorithms -- the loop algorithm, the worm algorithm, and the directed-loop algorithm -- for updating…
In 1864 W.S.B. Woolhouse formulated the Cotton-Spinning problem. This problem boils down to the following. A piecer works at a spinning mule and walks back and forth to repair broken threads. The question is how far the piecer is expected…
This paper reports on a theoretical analysis of the rich variety of spatio-temporal patterns observed recently in inclined layer convection at medium Prandtl number when varying the inclination angle $\gamma$ and the Rayleigh number $R$.…
Random walks and Lorentz processes serve as fundamental models for Brownian motion. The study of random walks is a favorite object of probability theory, whereas that of Lorentz processes belongs to the theory of hyperbolic dynamical…
Interest in Brownian motion was shared by different communities: this phenomenon was first observed by the botanist Robert Brown in 1827, then theorised by physicists in the 1900s, and eventually modelled by mathematicians from the 1920s,…
We investigate generalized versions of the Iteratively Regularized Landweber Method, initially introduced in [Appl. Math. Optim., 38(1):45-68, 1998], to address linear and nonlinear ill-posed problems. Our approach is inspired by the…
The coalescing Brownian flow on $\mathbb{R}$ is a process which was introduced by Arratia [Coalescing Brownian motions on the line (1979) Univ. Wisconsin, Madison] and T\'{o}th and Werner [Probab. Theory Related Fields 111 (1998) 375-452],…
We study the most elementary model of electron motion introduced by R.Feynman in 1965. It is a game, in which a checker moves on a checkerboard by simple rules, and we count the turnings. The model is also known as one-dimensional quantum…
Shape theory was founded by K.~Borsuk 50 years ago. In essence, this is spectral homotopy theory; it occupies an important place in geometric topology. The article presents the basic concepts and the most important, in our opinion, results…
In this note, while giving an overview of the state of art of the well known Hadamard conjecture, which is more than a century old and now it has been established by using the methods given in the two papers by Mohan et al [6,7].
This paper reviews the large spectrum of methods for generating robot motion proposed over the 50 years of robotics research culminating in recent developments. It crosses the boundaries of methodologies, typically not surveyed together,…
The book "Continuous-Time Markov Chains" by W. J. Anderson collects a large part of the development in the past thirty years. It is now a popular reference for the researchers on this subject or related fields. Unfortunately, due to a…
These are author's recollections of informal discussions on foundations of quantum mechanics, which happened in his presence in 1970-80s
This entry reviews Rudolf Carnap's philosophical views on the quantum mechanics of his time. It also offers some thoughts on how Carnap might have reacted to some recent developments in the foundations of quantum mechanics.
The waterfall model, one of the earliest software development methodologies, has played a foundational role in shaping contemporary software engineering practices. This paper provides a historical and critical overview of the model, tracing…
