Sumset estimates, which provide bounds on the cardinality of sumsets of finite sets in a group, form an essential part of the toolkit of additive combinatorics. In recent years, probabilistic or entropic analogs of many of these…
Sequential analysis encompasses simulation theories and methods where the sample size is determined dynamically based on accumulating data. Since the conceptual inception, numerous sequential stopping rules have been introduced, and many…
We consider cardinal invariants determined from Hausdorff measures. We separate many cardinal invariants of Hausdorff measure $0$ ideals using two models that separate many cardinal invariants of Yorioka ideals at once from earlier work.…
We point out that a sequence of natural numbers is the dimension sequence of a subproduct system if and only if it is the cardinality sequence of a word system (or factorial language). Determining such sequences is, therefore, reduced to a…
We investigate a combinatorial sum that can be interpreted as the moments of a random variate, measuring the absolute distance to the origin in a symmetric Bernoulli random walk. These sums can be characterized by polynomials related to the…
The spherical ensemble is a well-known ensemble of N repulsive points on the two-dimensional sphere, which can realized in various ways (as a random matrix ensemble, a determinantal point process, a Coulomb gas, a Quantum Hall state...).…
We introduce a notion of palindromicity of a natural number which is independent of the base. We study the existence and density of palindromic and multiple palindromic numbers, and we raise several related questions.
Monte Carlo simulations are based on the manipulation of random numbers to evaluate probable outcomes, with applicability in a variety of different fields. By assigning probabilities, which can be determined a priori, to various events, it…
We discuss the effect of adding a single real (for various forcing notions adding reals) on cardinal invariants associated with the continuum (like the unbounding or the dominating number or the cardinals related to measure and category on…
In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of the perfect numbers, called $\mathcal{S}$-perfect numbers. Briefly stated, an $\mathcal{S}$-perfect number is an integer equal to a weighted sum of its proper divisors, where the weights…
This report presents an expression for the number of a multiset's sub-multisets of a given cardinality as a function of the multiplicity of its elements. This is also the number of distinct samples of a given size that may be produced by…
In this lecture notes I concentrate on the classic and widely applicable characterization of higher order statistics by joint moments, a.k.a. higher order correlation functions, and directly related statistics. I put special emphasis on…
$\lambda\upsilon$ is an extension of the $\lambda$-calculus which internalises the calculus of substitutions. In the current paper, we investigate the combinatorial properties of $\lambda\upsilon$ focusing on the quantitative aspects of…
The present work is concerned with characterizing some algebraic invariants of edge ideals of hypergraphs. To this aim, firstly, we introduce some kinds of combinatorial invariants similar to matching numbers for hypergraphs. Then we…
A new number system, the set of the non-Dedekindian numbers, is introduced and characterized axiomatically. It is then proved that any hypercontinous hyperreal number system is strictly included in the set of the Non-Dedekindian Numbers.…
This paper provides a survey of spherical designs and their applications, with a particular emphasis on the perspective of ``numerical analysis''. A set \(X_N\) of \(N\) points on the unit sphere \(\mathbb{S}^d\) is called a…
A ``k-rule" is a sequence A=((A_n,B_n):n<omega) of pairwise disjoint sets B_n, each of cardinality at most k, where A_n is a subset of B_n. A set X of natural numbers (a ``real'') follows a rule A if for infinitely many n we have that the…
Based on continued fractions with subtractions, we identify the set of real numbers with the set of infinite integer sequences with all terms but the first one greater or equal to two. Each such sequence produces in a canonical way a unique…
Numerical solutions of differential equations are usually not smooth functions. However, they should resemble the smoothness of the corresponding real solutions in one way or another. In two of our recent papers, a kind of spacial…
We investigate various types of symmetries and their mutual relationships in Hamiltonian systems defined on manifolds with different geometric structures: symplectic, cosymplectic, contact and cocontact. In each case we pay special…
