Simultaneous measurements of the intensity and phase of a probe wave reflected from an interface between silica and elemental alpha-gallium reveal its very strong optical nonlinearity, affecting both these parameters of the reflected wave.…
In superfluid dark matter the exchange of phonons can create an additional force that has an effect similar to Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND). To test whether this hypothesis is compatible with observation, we study a set of strong…
Both constrained and unconstrained optimization problems regularly appear in recursive tracking problems engineers currently address -- however, constraints are rarely exploited for these applications. We define the Kalman Filter and…
In this paper we analyse and compare two different notions of regularity for filters on complete Boolean algebras. We also announce two results from a forthcoming paper in preparation, which provide a characterization of Keisler's order in…
We study the partition properties enjoyed by the "next best thing to a P-point'' ultrafilters introduced recently in joint work with Dobrinen and Raghavan. That work established some finite-exponent partition relations, and we now analyze…
Recent work of Kaplan and Levy refining a nonsolvability criterion proved by Thompson in his N-Groups paper prompts questions on whether certain conditions on groups are equivalent to nonsolvability.
Beginning from a relatively simple set of dynamical equations for a fluid permeated by a radiative field strong enough to produce significant forces, we find the structure of plane-parallel equilibria and study their stability to small…
The problem of robust nonlinear energy-to-peak filtering for nonlinear descriptor systems with model uncertainties is addressed. The system is assumed to have nonlinearities both in the state and output equations as well as norm-bounded…
In two previous papers two evolution equations for the vortex line density $L$, proposed by Vinen, were generalized to rotating superfluid turbulence and compared with each other. Here, the already generalized alternative Vinen equation is…
Assuming the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis, this paper answers the question: when is the tensor product of two ultrafilters equal to their Cartesian product? It is necessary and sufficient that their Cartesian product is an ultrafilter;…
We show the consistency of: the set of regular cardinals which are the character of some ultrafilter on omega can be quite chaotic, in particular not only can be not convex but can have many gaps. We also deal with the set of pi-characters…
We review the development of understanding for the problem of ultraviolet divergences in supergravity. This history proceeds from initial constructions of counterterms invariant under the relevant degrees of local supersymmetry, through a…
We study the stability and spectrum of BPS states in ${\cal N}=2$ supergravity. We find evidence, and prove for a large class of cases, that BPS stability exhibits a certain filtration which is partially independent of the value of the…
We show from a weak comparison principle (the Ultrapower Axiom) that the Mitchell order is linear on certain kinds of ultrafilters: normal ultrafilters, Dodd solid ultrafilters, and assuming GCH, generalized normal ultrafilters. In the…
One of the most common misconceptions made about the Kalman filter when applied to linear systems is that it requires an assumption that all error and noise processes are Gaussian. This misconception has frequently led to the Kalman filter…
We study the evolution equations for gravitational waves, which are derived using the full metric to raise and lower indices. This method ensures full consistency between the Ricci tensor and all gauge restrictions and requirements, and…
Following conservative solutions of the nonlinear variational wave equation $u_{tt}-c(u)(c(u)u_x)_x=0$ along forward and backward characteristics, we identify criteria, which guarantee that wave breaking either occurs in the nearby future…
Ergodic properties of the signal-filtering pair are studied for continuous time finite Markov chains, observed in white noise. The obtained law of large numbers is applied to the stability problem of the nonlinear filter with respect to…
We use nonstandard methods, based on iterated hyperextensions, to develop applications to Ramsey theory of the theory of monads of ultrafilters. This is performed by studying in detail arbitrary tensor products of ultrafilters, as well as…
Gravitational waves (GWs) can alter the neutrino propagation distance and thus affect neutrino oscillations. This can result in a complete disappearance of the oscillatory behavior that competes with other sources of neutrino decoherence.…
