Given a dynamical system, a characteristic measure is a Borel probability measure invariant under all of its automorphisms. Frisch and Tamuz asked if every symbolic system supports such a measure. Motivated by this problem, we study the…

We develop a notion of sampling, called \emph{generic sampling}, for the context of global Keisler measures where the standard product is replaced by the Morley product. Choosing a point randomly in this space with respect to our…

Measurement incompatibility is one of the cornerstones of quantum theory. This phenomenon appears in many forms, of which the concept of non-joint measurability has received considerable attention in the recent years. In order to…

An analysis of quantum measurement is presented that relies on an information-theoretic description of quantum entanglement. In a consistent quantum information theory of entanglement, entropies (uncertainties) conditional on measurement…

How to understand the set of correlations admissible in nature is one outstanding open problem in the core of the foundations of quantum theory. Here we take a complementary viewpoint to the device-independent approach, and explore the…

We study properties of a generalization of the Mahler measure to elements in group rings, in terms of the Lueck-Fuglede-Kadison determinant. Our main focus is the variation of the Mahler measure when the base group is changed. In…

We give new equivalent characterizations for ideals of Borel type. Also, we prove that the regularity of a product of ideals of Borel type is bounded by the sum of the regularities of those ideals.

Following Davies, Elekes and Keleti, we study measured sets, i.e. Borel sets $B$ in $\mathbb{R}$ (or in a Polish group) for which there is a translation invariant Borel measure assigning positive and \sigma-finite measure to $B$. We…

For a family $(\mathscr{A}_x)_{x \in (0,1)}$ of integral quasiarithmetic means sattisfying certain measurability-type assumptions we search for an integral mean $K$ such that $K\big((\mathscr{A}_x(\mathbb{P}))_{x \in…

The existence of incompatible measurements is a fundamental phenomenon having no explanation in classical physics. Intuitively, one considers given measurements to be incompatible within a framework of a physical theory, if their…

A brief discussion is given of measurement within the context of a theory of "beables", e.g. theories of de Broglie, Bohm, Bell, Vink, and also "modal" theories. It is shown that even in an ideal von Neumann measurement of a beable, the…

The paper treats density measures as typical examples of finitely additive measures in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We study their structure and derive basic properties. In addition, estimates for related integrals are provided. The results are applied…

This article gives some properties of intervals in $\mathbb{R}$ and discusses some problems involving intervals for which the concept of outer measure on $\mathbb{R}$ provides a more efficient solution than an elementary approach. The outer…

It is often claimed that Bayesian methods, in particular Bayes factor methods for hypothesis testing, can deal with optional stopping. We first give an overview, using elementary probability theory, of three different mathematical meanings…

We prove a model-theoretic representation theorem for the distribution of an ergodic exchangeable $k$-uniform hypergraph: every such measure arises as the pushforward of the countably-iterated Morley product of a global Borel-definable…
