Let $K\subset R^n$ be a compact basic semi-algebraic set. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition (with no a priori bounding parameter) for a real sequence $y=(y_\alpha)$, $\alpha\in N^n$, to have a finite representing Borel measure…

In this paper we will show that monomial summability can be characterized using Borel-Laplace like integral transformations depending of a parameter $0<s<1$. We will apply this result to prove 1-summability in a monomial of formal solutions…

We define for each $n \geq 1$ a symmetric monoidal $(\infty, n+1)$-category $n\mathrm{Pr}^L$ whose objects we call presentable $(\infty,n)$-categories, generalizing the usual theory of presentable $(\infty,1)$-categories. We show that each…

We answer one of the main questions in generalized descriptive set theory, the Friedman-Hyttinen-Kulikov conjecture on the Borel reducibility of the Main Gap. We show a correlation between Shelah's Main Gap and generalized Borel…

If $L$ is a relational language, an $L$-structure ${\mathbb X}$ is condensable to an $L$-structure ${\mathbb Y}$, we write ${\mathbb X} \preccurlyeq _c {\mathbb Y}$, iff there is a bijective homomorphism (condensation) from ${\mathbb X}$…

Algebra objects in $\infty$-categories of spans admit a description in terms of $2$-Segal objects. We introduce a notion of span between $2$-Segal objects and extend this correspondence to an equivalence of $\infty$-categories.…

Suppose that $y>0$, $0\leq\alpha<2\pi$, and $0<K<1$. Let $P^+$ be the set of primes $p$ such that $\cos(y\ln p+\alpha)>K$ and $P^-$ the set of primes $p$ such that $\cos(y\ln p+\alpha)<-K$. In this paper, we prove $\sum_{p\in…

We present a complete characterization of the asymptotic behaviour of a correlated Bernoulli sequence { which depends on the parameter $\theta \in [0,1]$. A martingale theory based approach will allow} us to prove versions of the law of…

Let $\mu$ be a given Borel measure on $\K\subseteq\R^n$ and let $y=(y_\alpha)$, $\alpha\in\N^n$, be a given sequence. We provide several conditions linking $y$ and the moment sequence $z=(z_\alpha)$ of $\mu$, for $y$ to be the moment…

Let $s$, $\ell$ be two integers such that $2\le s\le \ell-1$, $\ell\ge 3$. We prove that a suitable asymptotic formula for the average number of representations of integers $n=\sum_{i=1}^{s} p_{i}^{\ell}$, where $p_i$, $i=1,\dotsc,s$, are…

We consider the classical sequential binary hypothesis testing problem in which there are two hypotheses governed respectively by distributions $P_0$ and $P_1$ and we would like to decide which hypothesis is true using a sequential test. It…

In this paper, generalized Bell polynomials $(\Be_n^\phi)_n$ associated to a sequence of real numbers $\phi=(\phi_i)_{i=1}^\infty$ are introduced. Bell polynomials correspond to $\phi_i=0$, $i\ge 1$. We prove that when $\phi_i\ge 0$, $i\ge…

We prove that the category $\mathsf{SBor}$ of standard Borel spaces is the (bi-)initial object in the 2-category of countably complete Boolean (countably) extensive categories. This means that $\mathsf{SBor}$ is the universal category…
