The real world is inherently uncertain, imprecise and vague. Soft set theory was firstly introduced by Molodtsov in 1999 as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainties, not clearly defined objects. A soft set consists of two…

The theory of finitely supported algebraic structures is related to Pitts theory of nominal sets (by equipping finitely supported sets with finitely supported internal algebraic laws). It represents a reformulation of Zermelo Fraenkel set…

We consider Cantor real numeration system as a frame in which every non-negative real number has a positional representation. The system is defined using a bi-infinite sequence $\Beta=(\beta_n)_{n\in\Z}$ of real numbers greater than one. We…

We present a new fragment of axiomatic set theory for pure sets and for the iteration of power sets within given transitive sets. It turns out that this formal system admits an interesting hierarchy of models with true membership relation…

The present paper attempts to modify the way of constructing a measure in the Alternative Set Theory setting originally devised by Martin Kalina. Introducing a system of cuts of rational numbers extended with some special ones, it is proved…

This paper introduces the concept of a generic finite set, and points out that a consistent and significant interpretation of the grossone notation of Yarolslav D. Sergeyev is that of a generic natural number. This means that the grossone…

We present recent results on the model companions of set theory, placing them in the context of the current debate in the philosophy of mathematics. We start by describing the dependence of the notion of model companionship on the…

I present a novel mathematical technique for dealing with the infinities arising from divergent sums and integrals. It assigns them fine-grained infinite values from the set of hyperreal numbers in a manner that refines the standard…

Cantor's famous proof of the non-denumerability of real numbers does apply to any infinite set. The set of exclusively all natural numbers does not exist. This shows that the concept of countability is not well defined. There remains no…

The notion of Online State Complexity, introduced by Karp in 1967, quantifies the amount of states required to solve a given problem using an online algorithm, which is represented by a deterministic machine scanning the input from left to…

In this paper we present a new mathematical conception based on a new method for ordering the integers. The method relies on the assumption that negative numbers are beyond infinity, which goes back to Wallis and Euler. We also present a…

The topological entropy of a continuous self-map of a compact metric space can be defined in several distinct ways; when the space is not assumed compact, these definitions can lead to distinct invariants. The original, purely topological…

Some notions in mathematics can be considered relative. Relative is a term used to denote when the variation in the position of an observer implies variation in properties or measures on the observed object. We know, from Skolem theorem,…
