We study when the integration maps of vector measures can be computed as pointwise limits of their finite rank Radon-Nikod\'ym derivatives. We will show that this can sometimes be done, but there are also principal cases in which this…
For a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\bbR,$ we show that $L^{\infty}(\mu)$ is invariant under the group of translation operators $T_t(f)(x) = {$f(x-t)$}\ (t \in \bbR)$ if and only if $\mu$ is equivalent to Lebesgue measure $m$. We also give…
A histogram estimate of the Radon-Nikodym derivative of a probability measure with respect to a dominating measure is developed for binary sequences in $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$. A necessary and sufficient condition for the consistency of the…
We propose another interpretation of well-known derivatives computations from regular expressions, due to Brzozowski, Antimirov or Lombardy and Sakarovitch, in order to abstract the underlying data structures (e.g. sets or linear…
We construct a new kind of measures, called projection families, which generalize the classical notion of vector and operator-valued measures. The maximal class of reasonable functions admits an integral with respect to a projection family,…
The Macdonald symmetric functions are used to define measures on the set of all partitions of all integers. Probabilistic algorithms are given for growing partitions according to these measures. The case of Hall-Littlewood polynomials is…
Submodular set functions are undoubtedly among the most important building blocks of combinatorial optimization. Somewhat surprisingly, continuous counterparts of such functions have also appeared in an analytic line of research where they…
Often topological classes of one-dimensional dynamical systems are finite codimension smooth manifolds. We describe a method to prove this sort of statement that we believe can be applied in many settings. In this work we will implement it…
We present some general theorems about operator algebras that are algebras of functions on sets, including theories of local algebras, residually finite dimensional operator algebras and algebras that can be represented as the scalar…
In this brief research note I present a generalized version of the Savage-Dickey Density Ratio for representation of the Bayes factor (or marginal likelihood ratio) of nested statistical models; the new version takes the form of a…
We show connections between a special type of addition formulas and a theorem of Stieltjes and Rogers. We use different techniques to derive the desirable addition formulas. We apply our approach to derive special addition theorems for…
We study in this paper real-valued functions on the space of all sub-$\sigma$-algebras of a probability measure space, and introduce the notion of Kudo-continuity, which is an a priori strengthening of continuity with respect to strong…
Let $(X, \sigma_X), (Y, \sigma_Y)$ be one-sided subshifts with the specification property and $\pi:X\rightarrow Y$ a factor map. Let $\mu$ be a unique invariant Gibbs measure for a sequence of continuous functions $\F=\{\log…
We study Sorkin's proposal of a generalization of quantum mechanics and find that the theories proposed derive their probabilities from $k$-th order polynomials in additive measures, in the same way that quantum mechanics uses a probability…
We discuss the classes $\fC$, $\fM$, and $\fS$ of analytic functions that can be realized as the Liv\v{s}ic characteristic functions of a symmetric densely defined operator $\dot A$ with deficiency indices $(1,1)$, the Weyl-Titchmarsh…
Let $\mu$ be a finitely supported probability measure on the group of automorphisms of $\mathbb{A}^2_\mathbb{C}$. If the group generated by the support of $\mu$ is non-elementary and contains only loxodromic elements, we show the existence…
Some classical mass transportation problems are investigated in a finitely additive setting. Let $\Omega=\prod_{i=1}^n\Omega_i$ and $\mathcal{A}=\otimes_{i=1}^n\mathcal{A}_i$, where $(\Omega_i,\mathcal{A}_i,\mu_i)$ is a ($\sigma$-additive)…
Two approximations, derived from continuous expansions of Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives into series involving integer order derivatives, are studied. Using those series, one can formally transform any problem that contains…
The present article is devoted to one class of generalizations of the Salem functions. To construct such functions by systems of functional equations, the generalized shift operator is used.
We study the relation between additivity and deduction theorems in the algebraic semantics of congruential modal logic. Additivity of the modal operator is well-known to imply the local deduction-detachment theorem. Our main theme is that…
