We propose and study a novel collection of signed measures, which will be apply called Taylor measures. Stochastic versions of the new measures are also defined and studied. We illustrate, through examples, how the deterministic and…

Correlations play a pivotal role in various fields of science, particularly in quantum mechanics, yet their proper quantification remains a subject of debate. In this work, we aim to discuss the challenge of defining a reliable measure of…

We present a general method of constructing an uncountable family of regular Borel measures on certain path spaces of Lipschitz functions having fixed Lipschitz constants. We use this method to give a definition of Lebesgue measure and…

In textbooks, ideal quantum measurements are described in terms of the tested system only by the collapse postulate and Born's rule. This level of description offers a rather flexible position for the interpretation of quantum mechanics.…

Effective versions of strong measure zero sets are developed for various levels of complexity and computability. It is shown that the sets can be equivalently defined using a generalization of supermartingales called odds supermartingales,…

We study the problem of when, given a countable homogeneous structure $M$ and a space $S$ of expansions of $M$, every $\mathrm{Aut}(M)$-invariant probability measure on $S$ is exchangeable (i.e. invariant under all permutations of the…

We consider the correlations of invariant observables for the $O(N)$ and $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^{N-1}$ models at zero coupling, namely, with respect to the natural group-invariant measure. In the limit where one takes a large power of the…

We describe a quantum mechanical measurement as a variational principle including interaction between the system under measurement and the measurement apparatus. Augmenting the action with a nonlocal term (a double integration over the…

Let L be a countable language. We say that a countable infinite L-structure M admits an invariant measure when there is a probability measure on the space of L-structures with the same underlying set as M that is invariant under…

We work with the *-product introduced in [GHK25] and f-generic types to describe the minimal ideals of invariant types and to classify ergodic Keisler measures in amenable NIP theories. Moreover, we analyze the situation around the…

The Heisenberg limit provides a fundamental bound on the achievable estimation precision with a limited number of $N$ resources used (e.g., atoms, photons, etc.). Using entangled quantum states makes it possible to scale the precision with…

Suppose we are given two probability measures on the set of one-way infinite finite-alphabet sequences and consider the question when one of the measures predicts the other, that is, when conditional probabilities converge (in a certain…

Let $L$ be a countable language. We characterize, in terms of definable closure, those countable theories $\Sigma$ of $\mathcal{L}_{\omega_1, \omega}(L)$ for which there exists an $S_\infty$-invariant probability measure on the collection…

We restore part of the thermodynamic formalism for some renormalized measures that are known to be non-Gibbsian. We first point out that a recent theory due to Pfister implies that for block-transformed measures free energies and relative…

We show that in many parametrized families of self-similar measures, their projections, and their convolutions, the set of parameters for which the measure fails to be absolutely continuous is very small - of co-dimension at least one in…
