This paper describes infinite sets of polynomial equations in infinitely many variables with the property that the existence of a solution or even an approximate solution for every finite subset of the equations implies the existence of a…
By presenting the proofs of a few sample results, we introduce the reader to the use of nonstandard analysis in aspects of combinatorics of numbers.
A family of asymptotic solutions at infinity for the system of ordinary differential equations is considered. Existence of exact solutions which have these asymptotics is proved.
Using nonstandard analysis, an intuitive and very short proof of the Radon-Nikodym theorem is provided
When a proposition has no proof in an inference system, it is sometimes useful to build a counter-proof explaining, step by step, the reason of this non-provability. In general, this counter-proof is a (possibly) infinite co-inductive proof…
Many mathematical statements have the following form. If something is true for all finite subsets of an infinite set $I$, then it is true for all of $I$. This paper describes some old and new results on infinite sets of linear and…
Nonstandard analysis is very complex, so finding a simple description of infinitesimal points will be useful. In this paper, ultrafilters as infinitesimal points in a topological space will be proposed, and some topological concepts is…
We obtain simple proofs of certain inequalites for bivariate means.
A fundamental result in linear algebra states that if a homogenous linear equation system has only the trivial solution, then there are at most as many variables as equations. We prove the following generalisation of this phenomenon. If a…
We define a proof system for exceptions which is close to the syntax for exceptions, in the sense that the exceptions do not appear explicitly in the type of any expression. This proof system is sound with respect to the intended…
We determine the proof-theoretic strength of the principle of countable saturation in the context of the systems for nonstandard arithmetic introduced in our earlier work.
The paper presents a selection of recently developed and/or used techniques for equivalence-checking on infinite-state systems, and an up-to-date overview of existing results (as of September 2004).
We give a simple proof of the Fourier Inversion Theorem, using the methods of nonstandard analysis.
The input and output algebras of an infinite qubit system and their representations are described.
This paper considers the problem of testing whether there exists a non-negative solution to a possibly under-determined system of linear equations with known coefficients. This hypothesis testing problem arises naturally in a number of…
We prove several results from different areas of extremal combinatorics, giving complete or partial solutions to a number of open problems. These results, coming from areas such as extremal graph theory, Ramsey theory and additive…
This paper deals with existence of a nontrivial positive solution to systems of equations involving nontrivial nonhomogeneous terms and critical or subcritical nonlinearities. Via a minimization argument we prove existence of a positive…
Someone knowledgeable in nonstandard analysis may get the feeling that in the nonlinear theory of generalized functions, too often one works directly on the nets and spends effort to obtain results that should be clear from general…
This is a brief review of recent theoretical efforts to understand persistence in nonequilibrium systems. Some of the recent experimental results are also briefly mentioned. I also discuss recent generalizations of persistence in various…
It is shown that a finite monoid can have an infinite irredundant basis of equations.
