In this article, we present what we believe to be a simple way to motivate the use of Hilbert spaces in quantum mechanics. To achieve this, we study the way the notion of dimension can, at a very primitive level, be defined as the…
The Guarded Fragment (GF) is a well-established decidable fragment of first-order logic. We study an extension of GF with nested equivalence relations, namely a family of distinguished binary predicates $E_1, E_2, \dots$ interpreted as…
Superior to state-of-the-art approaches which compete in table recognition with 67 annotated government reports in PDF format released by {\it ICDAR 2013 Table Competition}, this paper contributes a novel paradigm leveraging large-scale…
In global QCD fits of parton distribution functions (PDFs), a large part of the estimated uncertainty on the PDFs originates from the choices of parametric functional forms and fitting methodology. We argue that these types of uncertainties…
The need for accurate and precise polarised parton distribution functions (PDFs) is becoming increasingly crucial in view of the Electron-Ion Collider experimental program foreseen in the coming years. Two global PDF determinations at…
The fragmentation processes of exchangeable partitions have already been studied by several authors. In this paper, we examine rather fragmentation of exchangeable compositions, that means partitions of $\mathbb{N}$ where the order of the…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce new parametric families of complex Hadamard matrices in two different ways. First, we prove that every real Hadamard matrix of order N>=4 admits an affine orbit. This settles a recent open problem…
We define and study a family of partitions of the wonderful compactification \bar{G} of a semi-simple algebraic group G of adjoint type. The partitions are obtained from subgroups of G \times G associated to triples (A_1, A_2, a), where A_1…
One of the main goals of design theory is to classify, characterize and count various combinatorial objects with some prescribed properties. In most cases, however, one quickly encounters a combinatorial explosion and even if the complete…
In a series of recent contributions on the notion of global breadth $\mathbf{B}(G)$ of a finite group $G$, it was interesting to observe the structural conditions arising from the classification of finite groups of $\mathbf{B}(G)=8$. This…
A Hadamard-Hitchcock decomposition of a multidimensional array is a decomposition that expresses the latter as a Hadamard product of several tensor rank decompositions. Such decompositions can encode probability distributions that arise…
A $(v,k,\lambda, \mu)$-partial difference set (PDS) is a subset $D$ of a group $G$ such that $|G| = v$, $|D| = k$, and every nonidentity element $x$ of $G$ can be written in either $\lambda$ or $\mu$ different ways as a product $gh^{-1}$,…
We present a symbolic decomposition of the Pearson chi-square statistic with unequal cell probabilities, by presenting Hadamard-type matrices whose columns are eigenvectors of the variance-covariance matrix of the cell counts. All of the…
A partial Hadamard matrix $H\in M_{M\times N}(\mathbb C)$ is called of "classical type" if the associated quantum semigroup $G\subset\widetilde{S}_M^+$ is classical. In combinatorial terms, if $H_1,\ldots,H_M\in\mathbb T^N$ are the rows of…
This paper studies separating invariants: mappings on $D$ dimensional domains which are invariant to an appropriate group action, and which separate orbits. The motivation for this study comes from the usefulness of separating invariants in…
In [12] was introduced, for cyclic groups, the class of partially filled arrays of the non-zero sum Heffter array that are, as the Heffter arrays, related to difference families, graph decompositions, and biembeddings. Here we generalize…
In this article, we review recent lattice calculations on the $x$-dependence of parton distributions, with the latter providing information on hadron structure. These calculations are based on matrix elements of boosted hadrons coupled to…
We say that a linear space is harmonious if it is resolvable and admits an automorphism group acting sharply transitively on the points and transitively on the parallel classes. Generalizing old results by the first author et al. we present…
In an earlier publication, we introduced the software package, {\tt \texttt{ePump}} (error PDF Updating Method Package), that can be used to update or optimize a set of parton distribution functions (PDFs), including the best-fit PDF set…
Hadamard full propelinear codes (HFP-codes) are introduced and their equivalence with Hadamard groups is proven (on the other hand, it is already known the equivalence of Hadamard groups with relative $(4n,2,4n,2n)$-difference sets in a…
