The present article surveys surreal numbers with an informal approach, from their very first definition to their structure of universal real closed analytic and exponential field. Then we proceed to give an overview of the recent…

Several authors have conjectured that Conway's field of surreal numbers, equipped with the exponential function of Kruskal and Gonshor, can be described as a field of transseries and admits a compatible differential structure of Hardy-type.…

Inspired by Conway's surreal numbers, we study real closed fields whose value group is isomorphic to the additive reduct of the field. We call such fields omega-fields and we prove that any omega-field of bounded Hahn series with real…

Inspired by the idea of blurring the exponential function, we define blurred variants of the $j$-function and its derivatives, where blurring is given by the action of a subgroup of $\rm{GL}_2(\mathbb{C})$. For a dense subgroup (in the…

Extended real-valued functions are often used in optimization theory, but in different ways for infimum problems and for supremum problems. We present an approach to extended real-valued functions that works for all types of problems and…

This paper introduces a new functional expansion framework that extends classical ideas beyond the Taylor series. Unlike traditional Taylor expansions based on local polynomial approximations, the proposed approach arises from exact…

This is a thesis that was defended in 2009 at Lomonosov Moscow State University. In Chapter 1: 1. It is proved that that the class of lower (Skolem) elementary functions is the set of all polynomial-bounded functions that can be obtained by…

The concept of monogenic functions over real alternative $\ast$-algebras has recently been introduced to unify several classical monogenic (or regular) functions theories in hypercomplex analysis, including quaternionic, octonionic, and…

We note that if a sequence of real numbers converges to some limit, then the sequence of the corresponding strings in the surreal $+,-$ sign expansion representation converges, for a natural notion of string convergence, to the string…

How many odd numbers are there? How many even numbers? From Galileo to Cantor, the suggestion was that there are the same number of odd, even and natural numbers, because all three sets can be mapped in one-one fashion to each other. This…

Jacobian conjectures (that nonsingular implies invertible) for rational everywhere defined maps of real n-space to itself are considered, with no requirement for a constant Jacobian determinant or a rational inverse. The associated…

We prove the following theorem: let $\widetilde{\mathcal R}$ be an expansion of the real field $\overline{\mathbb R}$, such that every definable set (I) is a uniform countable union of semialgebraic sets, and (II) contains a "semialgebraic…

This paper investigates functions from $\mathbb{R}^d$ to $\mathbb{R} \cup \{\pm \infty\}$ that satisfy axioms of linearity wherever allowed by extended-value arithmetic. They have a nontrivial structure defined inductively on $d$, and…

In this paper we introduce an enclosure of the numerical range of a class of rational operator functions. In contrast to the numerical range the presented enclosure can be computed exactly in the infinite dimensional case as well as in the…

This paper is devoted to the proof Gauss' divergence theorem in the framework of "ultrafunctions". They are a new kind of generalized functions, which have been introduced recently [2] and developed in [4], [5] and [6]. Their peculiarity is…

The universal approximation theorem is generalised to uniform convergence on the (noncompact) input space $\mathbb{R}^n$. All continuous functions that vanish at infinity can be uniformly approximated by neural networks with one hidden…
