The non-scientific event of a soccer match is analysed on a strictly scientific level. The analysis is based on the recently introduced concept of a team fitness (Eur. Phys. J. B 67, 445, 2009) and requires the use of finite-size scaling. A…
We introduce the split principles and show that they bear tight connections to large cardinal properties such as inaccessibility, weak compactness, subtlety, almost ineffability and ineffability, as well as classical combinatorial objects…
Using the proof-program (Curry-Howard) correspondence, we give a new method to obtain models of ZF and relative consistency results in set theory. We show the relative consistency of ZF + DC + there exists a sequence of subsets of R the…
We begin with the existence of groups with trivial duals for cardinals aleph_n (n in omega). Then we derive results about strongly aleph_n-free abelian groups of cardinality aleph_n (n in omega) with prescribed free, countable endomorphism…
The rich-club concept has been introduced in order to characterize the presence of a cohort of nodes with a large number of links (rich nodes) that tend to be well connected between each other, creating a tight group (club). Rich-clubness…
We study the consistency and consistency strength of various configurations concerning the cardinal characteristics $\mathfrak{s}_\theta,\mathfrak{p}_\theta,\mathfrak{g}_\theta,\mathfrak{r}_\theta,\mathfrak{t}_\theta$ at uncountable regular…
The distinguishing number of a graph was introduced by Albertson and Collins as a measure of the amount of symmetry contained in the graph. Tymoczko extended this definition to faithful group actions on sets; taking the set to be the vertex…
This paper addresses one of the fundamental open questions in the realm of existential rules: the conjecture on the finite controllability of bounded derivation depth rule sets (bdd $\Rightarrow$ fc). We take a step toward a positive…
We prove that the statement "for every infinite cardinal nu, every graph with list chromatic nu has coloring number at most beth_omega (nu)" proved by Kojman [6] using the RGCH theorem [11] implies the RGCG theorem via a short forcing…
H.Furstenberg and E.Glasner proved that for an arbitrary $k\in\mathbb{N}$, any piecewise syndetic set of integers contains a $k$-term arithmetic progression and the collection of such progressions is itself piecewise syndetic in…
We show that if $\gamma \in \omega \cup \{\aleph_{0}\}$ and $\mathcal{A}$ is a counterexample to the analytic Vaught conjecture having exactly $\gamma$ many models of Scott rank $\omega_{1}$, then there exists a club $C \subseteq…
The stable core, an inner model of the form $\langle L[S],\in, S\rangle$ for a simply definable predicate $S$, was introduced by the first author in [Fri12], where he showed that $V$ is a class forcing extension of its stable core. We study…
This paper is on developing some computer-assisted proof methods involving non-classical inequalities for Shannon entropy. Two areas of the applications of information inequalities are studied: Secret sharing schemes and hat guessing games.…
We introduce a stronger version of an $\omega_1$-guessing model, which we call an indestructibly $\omega_1$-guessing model. The principle IGMP states that there are stationarily many indestructibly $\omega_1$-guessing models. This…
This article presents a Bayesian implementation of a cumulative probit model to forecast the outcomes of the UEFA Champions League matches. The argument of the normal CDF involves a cut-off point, a home vs away playing effect and the…
We apply geometric group theory to study and interpret known concepts from Western music. We show that chords, the circle of fifths, scales and certain aspects of the first species of counterpoint are encoded in the Cayley graph of the…
Modelling football outcomes has gained increasing attention, in large part due to the potential for making substantial profits. Despite the strong connection existing between football models and the bookmakers' betting odds, no authors have…
In this article we review results of computer simulation of glasses carried out using first principles approaches, notably density functional theory. We start with a brief introduction to this method and compare the pros and cons of this…
We present the clustering of galaxy clusters as a useful addition to the common set of cosmological observables. The clustering of clusters probes the large-scale structure of the Universe, extending galaxy clustering analysis to the…
We revisit the application of Shelah's Revised GCH Theorem \cite{SheRGCH} to diamond. We also formulate a generalization of the theorem and prove a small fragment of it. Finally we consider another application of the theorem, to covering…
