In this note, we provide critical commentary on two articles that cast doubt on the validity and implications of Birnbaum's theorem: Evans (2013) and Mayo (2014). In our view, the proof is correct and the consequences of the theorem are…
Let $g_0$ be a smooth Riemannian metric on a closed manifold $M^n$ of dimension $n\geq 3$. We study the existence of a smooth metric $g$ conformal to $g_0$ whose Schouten tensor $A_g$ satisfies the differential inclusion…
In this paper we present new, short and elementary proofs of the famous projection and section theorems that are used in Stochastic Calculus.
We strengthen a result of Hanke-Schick about the strong Novikov conjecture for low degree cohomology by showing that their non-vanishing result for the maximal group C*-algebra holds for many other exotic group C*-algebras, in particular…
This work derives the elements of classical Einstein Cartan theory (EC) from classical general relativity (GR) in two ways. (I) Derive discrete versions of torsion (translational holonomy) and the spin torsion field equation of EC from one…
In this and companion papers, we show that quantum field theories with gauge symmetries permit a broader class of classical dynamics than typically assumed. In this article, we show that the quantization of electromagnetism permits the…
The objective of this second part of the work is to present heuristic derivations of the three classical tests of general relativity. These derivations are based on the Einstein equivalence principle and use Newtonian physics as a…
While many observations support the validity of Einstein's general relativity as the theory of gravity, there are yet many that suggest the presence of new physics. In order to explain the high-redshift supernovae Ia observations together…
We give a detailed and unified survey of equivariant $KK$-theory over locally compact, second countable, locally Hausdorff groupoids. We indicate precisely how the "classical" proofs relating to the Kasparov product can be used almost…
In this paper, we briefly review the Hamiltonian formulation of classical systems that are constrained to submanifolds so that, within this context, the true meaning of classical gauge theories becomes clear. Please note that this paper is…
In this new version, we correct some typos. For the readers' convenience, we also added some footnotes and more details for certain lemmas and theorems.
We study how to extend Sanov theorem to the quantum setting. Although a quantum version of the Sanov theorem was proposed in Bjelakovic et al (Commun. Math. Phys., 260, p.659 (2005)), the classical case of their statement is not the same as…
The Campbell-Magaard theorem is widely seen as a way of embedding Einstein's 4D theory of general relativity in a 5D theory of the Kaluza-Klein type. We give a brief history of theorem, present a short account of it, and show that it…
Quantum mechanics under the Copenhagen interpretation is one of the most experimentally well verified formalisms. However, it is known that the interpretation makes explicit reference to external observation or "measurement." One says that…
The Kochen-Specker Theorem is widely interpreted to imply that non-contextual hidden variable theories that agree with the predictions of Copenhagen quantum mechanics are impossible. The import of the theorem for a novel observer…
The Three Gap Theorem, also known as the Steinhaus Conjecture, is a classical result on the combinatorics of the fractional part function, and has since been generalized in many ways. In this paper, we pose a new problem related to these…
This paper is devoted to Markov's extremal problems of the form $M_{n,k}=\sup_{p\in\PP_n\setminus\{0\}}{{\|p^{(k)}\|}_X}/{{\|p\|}_X}$ $(1\le k\le n)$, where $\PP_n$ is the set of all algebraic polynomials of degree at most $n$ and $X$ is a…
A problem from thermodynamic formalism for countable symbolic Markov chains is considered. It concerns asymptotic behavior of the equilibrium measures corresponding to increasing sequences of finite sub-matrices of an infinite nonnegative…
We survey most of the known results concerning the Eisenbud-Green-Harris Conjecture. Our presentation includes new proofs of several theorems, as well as a unified treatment of many results which are otherwise scattered in the literature.…
Recently, in Axioms 10(2): 119 (2021), a nonclassical first-order theory T of sets and functions has been introduced as the collection of axioms we have to accept if we want a foundational theory for (all of) mathematics that is not weaker…
