In this paper, based on results of exact learning and test theory, we study arbitrary infinite binary information systems each of which consists of an infinite set of elements and an infinite set of two-valued functions (attributes) defined…
We study the complexity of constraint satisfaction problems for templates $\Gamma$ that are first-order definable in $(\Bbb Z; succ)$, the integers with the successor relation. Assuming a widely believed conjecture from finite domain…
The theory of optimal choice sets offers a well-established solution framework in social choice and game theory. In social choice theory, decision-making is typically modeled as a maximization problem. However, when preferences are cyclic…
We consider string matching with variable length gaps. Given a string $T$ and a pattern $P$ consisting of strings separated by variable length gaps (arbitrary strings of length in a specified range), the problem is to find all ending…
An additive system for the nonnegative integers is a family (A_i)_{i\in I} of sets of nonnegative integers with 0 \in A_i for all i \in I such that every nonnegative integer can be written uniquely in the form \sum_{i\in I} a_i with a_i \in…
Feldman and Karlin conjectured that the number of isolated fixed points for deterministic models of viability selection and recombination among n possible haplotypes has an upper bound of 2^n - 1. Here a proof is provided. The upper bound…
We consider the integrable family of symmetric boundary-driven interacting particle systems that arise from the non-compact XXX Heisenberg model in one dimension with open boundaries. In contrast to the well-known symmetric exclusion…
Quantitative loop invariants are an essential element in the verification of probabilistic programs. Recently, multivariate Lagrange interpolation has been applied to synthesizing polynomial invariants. In this paper, we propose an…
The fixed-template constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be seen as the problem of deciding whether a given primitive positive first-order sentence is true in a fixed structure (also called model). We study a class of problems that…
In this paper, we study the static cell probe complexity of non-adaptive data structures that maintain a subset of $n$ points from a universe consisting of $m=n^{1+\Omega(1)}$ points. A data structure is defined to be non-adaptive when the…
Odifreddi asked whether every non-irreducible many-one degree must contain an infinite antichain of one-one degrees. Positive answers are known for computably enumerable many-one degrees (Degtev) and, more recently, for many-one degrees…
We study a spatial model of random permutations on trees with a time parameter $T>0$, a special case of which is the random stirring process. The model on trees was first analysed by Bj\"ornberg and Ueltschi[BU16], who established the…
The following problem is considered. A Turing machine $M$, that accepts a string of fixed length $t$ as input, runs for a time not exceeding a fixed value $n$ and is guaranteed to produce a binary output, is given. It's required to find a…
A numeral system is an infinite sequence of different closed normal $\lambda$-terms intended to code the integers in $\lambda$-calculus. H. Barendregt has shown that if we can represent, for a numeral system, the functions : Successor,…
This paper offers a comprehensive treatment of the question as to whether a binary relation can be consistent (transitive) without being decisive (complete), or decisive without being consistent, or simultaneously inconsistent or…
In this document, some structured operator approximation theoretical methods for system identification of nearly eventually periodic systems, are presented. Let $\mathbb{C}^{n\times m}$ denote the algebra of $n\times m$ complex matrices.…
The PCP Theorem is one of the most stunning results in computational complexity theory, a culmination of a series of results regarding proof checking it exposes some deep structure of computational problems. As a surprising side-effect, it…
We consider the following statistical problem: based on an i.i.d.sample of size n of integer valued random variables with common law m, is it possible to test whether or not the support of m is finite as n goes to infinity? This question is…
Reasoning about array data structures is a key requirement for many applications in hardware and software verification, especially in combination with machine integers. The Satisfiability Modulo Theories (SMT) theory of extensional arrays…
Cai and Hemachandra used iterative constant-setting to prove that Few $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P (and thus that FewP $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P). In this paper, we note that there is a tension between the nondeterministic ambiguity of the class one…
