The proofs of K. Oka's Coherence Theorems are based on Weierstrass' Preparation (division) Theorem. Here we formulate and prove a Weak Coherence Theorem without using Weierstrass' Preparation Theorem, but only with power series expansions:…
The investigations on higher-order type theories and on the related notion of parametric polymorphism constitute the technical counterpart of the old foundational problem of the circularity (or impredicativity) of second and higher order…
Let's fix a reasonable subsystem $T$ of arithmetic; why are natural extensions of $T$ pre-well-ordered by consistency strength? In previous work, an approach to this question was proposed. The goal of this work was to classify the recursive…
This thesis comes within the scope of algebraic combinatorics and studies problems related to three orders on permutations: the two said weak orders (right and left) and the strong order or Bruhat order. The first part deals with bases of…
This talk is a sneak preview of the project, 'proof theory for theories of ordinals'. Background, aims, survey and furture works on the project are given. Subsystems of second order arithmetic are embedded in recursively large ordinals and…
It is well-known that natural axiomatic theories are pre-well-ordered by logical strength, according to various characterizations of logical strength such as consistency strength and inclusion of $\Pi^0_1$ theorems. Though these notions of…
A function from sequences to their subsequences is called selection function. A selection function is called admissible (with respect to normal numbers) if for all normal numbers, their subsequences obtained by the selection function are…
We propose a new approach to the Fourier restriction conjectures. It is based on a discretization of the Fourier extension operators in terms of quadratically modulated wave packets. Using this new point of view, and by combining natural…
Variational convexity, together with ist strong counterpart, of extended-real-valued functions has been recently introduced by Rockafellar. In this paper we present second-order characterizations of these properties, i.e., conditions using…
We propose a procedure for automated implicit inductive theorem proving for equational specifications made of rewrite rules with conditions and constraints. The constraints are interpreted over constructor terms (representing data values),…
We report on the first observation of bosons condensed into the energy minima of an $F$-band of a bipartite square optical lattice. Momentum spectra indicate that a truly complex-valued staggered angular momentum superfluid order is…
We derive formulas for the Fourier coefficients of $|f|^2$, where $f(z_1,z_2)=(1-\frac{z_1+z_2}{r})^{-\alpha}$, in terms of hypergeometric functions. Using these formulas we provide additional counterexamples to the weak Shanks conjecture,…
We develop a formal theory of the weak values with emphasis on the consistency conditions and a probabilistic interpretation in the counter-factual processes. We present the condition for the choice of the post-selected state to give a…
A 1971 conjecture of Graham (later repeated by Erd\H{o}s and Graham) asserts that every set $A \subseteq \mathbb{F}_p \setminus \{0\}$ has an ordering whose partial sums are all distinct. We prove this conjecture for sets of size $|A|…
We study the reverse mathematics of the theory of countable second-countable topological spaces, with a focus on compactness. We show that the general theory of such spaces works as expected in the subsystem $\mathsf{ACA}_0$ of second-order…
A congruence of the weak order is simple if its quotientope is a simple polytope. We provide an alternative elementary proof of the characterization of the simple congruences in terms of forbidden up and down arcs. For this, we provide a…
Continuity is one of the most central notions in mathematics, physics, and computer science. An interesting associated topic is decompositions of continuity, where continuity is shown to be equivalent to the combination of two or more weak…
We present an illative system I_s of classical higher-order logic with subtyping and basic inductive types. The system I_s allows for direct definitions of partial and general recursive functions, and provides means for handling functions…
We show, using three empirical applications, that linear regression estimates predicated on the assumption of sparsity are fragile in two ways. First, we document that different choices of the regressor matrix which do not impact ordinary…
We prove that the statement "there is a $k$ such that for every $f$ there is a $k$-bounded diagonally non-recursive function relative to $f$" does not imply weak K\"onig's lemma over $\mathrm{RCA}_0 + \mathrm{B}\Sigma^0_2$. This answers a…
