As countless examples show, it can be fruitful to study a sequence of complicated objects all at once via the formalism of generating functions. We apply this point of view to the homology and combinatorics of orbit configuration spaces:…

In NIP theories, generically stable Keisler measures can be characterized in several ways. We analyze these various forms of "generic stability" in arbitrary theories. Among other things, we show that the standard definition of generic…

Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a number field of degree $k$ and let $\mathcal{O}$ be an order in $\mathbb{K}$. A \emph{generalized number system over $\mathcal{O}$} (GNS for short) is a pair $(p,\mathcal{D})$ where $p \in \mathcal{O}[x]$ is monic and…

The aim of this work is to study fiber derivatives associated to Lagrangian and Hamiltonian functions describing the dynamics of a higher-order autonomous dynamical system. More precisely, given a function in $T^*T^{(k-1)}Q$, we find…

In this paper, we study questions of definability and decidability for infinite algebraic extensions ${\bf K}$ of $\mathbb{F}_p(t)$ and their subrings of $\mathcal{S}$-integral functions. We focus on fields ${\bf K}$ satisfying a local…

The sunflower equation describes the motion of the tip of a plant due to the auxin transportation under the influence of gravity. This work proposes the fractional-order generalization to this delay differential equation. The equation…

We present a real-space formulation and higher-order finite-difference implementation of periodic Orbital-free Density Functional Theory (OF-DFT). Specifically, utilizing a local reformulation of the electrostatic and kernel terms, we…

It is well-known that every first-order property on words is expressible using at most three variables. The subclass of properties expressible with only two variables is also quite interesting and well-studied. We prove precise structure…

Various feature descriptions are being employed in logic programming languages and constrained-based grammar formalisms. The common notational primitive of these descriptions are functional attributes called features. The descriptions…

In this paper we develop a theory of stability for $G$-categories (presheaf of categories on the orbit category of $G$), where $G$ is a finite group. We give a description of Mackey functors as $G$-commutative monoids exploit it to…

A function f : {0, 1}^n -> {0, 1} is said to be k-monotone if it flips between 0 and 1 at most k times on every ascending chain. Such functions represent a natural generalization of (1-)monotone functions, and have been recently studied in…

For an atomic domain $D$, the $elasticity$ $\rho(D)$ of $D$ is defined as $\sup\{r/s: \pi_1\cdots \pi_r = \rho_1 \cdots \rho_s,~ \text{where each $\pi_i, \rho_j$ is irreducible}\}$; the elasticity provides a concrete measure of the failure…

We introduce a general scheme for constructing order parameters (OPs) by extracting generic patterns from the dominant Fock states of many-body ground states. While topological phases are traditionally characterized by non-local invariants,…

Whilst Power Kripke-Platek set theory, KPP, shares many properties with ordinary Kripke-Platek set theory, KP, in several ways it behaves quite differently from KP. This is perhaps most strikingly demonstrated by a result, due to Mathias,…

Given an $n$-ary $k-$valued function $f$, $gap(f)$ denotes the minimal number of essential variables in $f$ which become fictive when identifying any two distinct essential variables in $f$. We particularly solve a problem concerning the…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and $P(x,y)\in k[x,y]$ be a polynomial which depends on all its variables. $P$ has an algebraic constraint if the set $\{(P(a,b),(P(a',b'),P(a',b),P(a,b')\,|\,a,a',b,b'\in k\}$…

A type-2 computable real function is necessarily continuous; and this remains true for relative, i.e. oracle-based computations. Conversely, by the Weierstrass Approximation Theorem, every continuous f:[0,1]->R is computable relative to…

For N=1,2,..., let S_N be a simple random sample of size n=n_N from a population A_N of size N, where 0<=n<=N. Then with f_N=n/N, the sampling fraction, and 1_A the inclusion indicator that A is in S_N, for any H a subset of A_N of size k>=…

In this paper, we revisit the notion of higher-order rigidity of a bar-and-joint framework. In particular, we provide a link between the rigidity properties of a framework, and the growth order of an energy function defined on that…

There are a number of localic separation axioms which are roughly analogous to the $T_1$-axiom from classical topology. For instance, besides the well-known subfitness and fitness, there are also Rosicky-Smarda's $T_1$-locales, totally…
