For an algebraically closed field $K$ of characteristic zero and a non-singular matrix $A\in \mbox{GL}_n(K)$, a semi-invariant polynomial of $A$ is defined to be a polynomial $p(x)=p(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ with coefficients in $K$ such that…

Let X denote a simply connected compact Riemannian symmetric space, U the universal covering of the identity component of the group of automorphisms of X, and LU the loop group of U. In this paper we prove the existence (and conjecture the…

Let $M$ be a smooth compact oriented connected manifold, and ${\rm Homeo}_0(M,\mu)$ the group of homeomorphisms of $M$ supported away from $\partial M,$ which preserve a Borel probability measure $\mu$ induced by a volume form on $M$, and…

The theory of quasi-arithmetic means is a powerful tool in the study of covariance functions across space-time. In the present study we use quasi-arithmetic functionals to make inferences about the permissibility of averages of functions…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group acting on a countable set $X$ by permutations. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the action to have a quasi-invariant mean with a given cocycle. This can be viewed as a combinatorial analogue…

A new measure of information in quantum mechanics is proposed which takes into account that for quantum systems the only feature known before an experiment is performed are the probabilities for various events to occur. The sum of the…

The halfspace depth of a $d$-dimensional point $x$ with respect to a finite (or probability) Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is defined as the infimum of the $\mu$-masses of all closed halfspaces containing $x$. A natural question is…

Let $\{X_i\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of independent copies of a random vector $X$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We revisit the question to determine the asymptotic shape of the random polytope $K_N={\rm conv}\{X_1,\ldots ,X_N\}$ where $N>n$. We…

We derive the invariant measure on the manifold of multimode quantum Gaussian states, induced by the Haar measure on the group of Gaussian unitary transformations. To this end, by introducing a bipartition of the system in two disjoint…

We consider the invariant measure of homogeneous random walks in the quarter-plane. In particular, we consider measures that can be expressed as a finite linear combination of geometric terms and present conditions on the structure of these…

In the finite dimensional case, mean-type mappings, their invariant means, relations between the uniqueness of invariant means and convergence of orbits of the mapping, are considered. In particular it is shown, that the uniqueness of an…

We consider coherent sublinear expectations on a measurable space, without assuming the existence of a dominating probability measure. By considering a decomposition of the space in terms of the supports of the measures representing our…

An extension of the Born rule, the {\it quantum typicality rule}, has recently been proposed [B. Galvan: Found. Phys. 37, 1540-1562 (2007)]. Roughly speaking, this rule states that if the wave function of a particle is split into…

We show that recurrence conditions do not yield invariant Borel probability measures in the descriptive set-theoretic milieu, in the strong sense that if a Borel action of a locally compact Polish group on a standard Borel space satisfies…

Let $\nu$ be a rotation invariant Borel probability measure on the complex plane having moments of all orders. Given a positive integer $q$, it is proved that the space of $\nu$-square integrable $q$-analytic functions is the closure of…

We define inductively a sequence of purely algebraic invariants - namely, classes in the Quillen cohomology of the Pi-algebra \pi_* X - for distinguishing between different homotopy types of spaces. Another sequence of such cohomology…

Due to the absence of an external, classical time variable, the probabilistic predictions of covariant quantum theory are ambiguous when multiple measurements are considered. Here, we introduce an information theoretic framework to the…

Every permutation invariant Borel subset of the space of countable structures is definable in $\La_{\omega_1\omega}$ by a theorem of Lopez-Escobar. We prove variants of this theorem relative to fixed relations and fixed non-permutation…

There exist several different proposals for a measure in Quantum Gravity theories. Although sometimes being labelled as non covariant, the measure derived in [7] for GR has the particularity that, in the extremal, the volume divergences…

We give examples of (i) a simple theory with a formula (with parameters) which does not fork over the empty set but has mu measure 0 for every automorphism invariant Keisler measure mu, and (ii) a definable group G in a simple theory such…
