The relaxation complexity $\mathrm{rc}(X)$ of the set of integer points $X$ contained in a polyhedron is the smallest number of facets of any polyhedron $P$ such that the integer points in $P$ coincide with $X$. It is a useful tool to…
We comment on some conceptual and and technical problems related to computational mechanics, point out some errors in several papers, and straighten out some wrong priority claims. We present explicitly the correct algorithm for…
In this paper we investigate the problem of partitioning an input string T in such a way that compressing individually its parts via a base-compressor C gets a compressed output that is shorter than applying C over the entire T at once.…
We prove that the extremum stack of a discrete sequence is a minimal sufficient statistic for the class of all computable, causal, rate-independent functionals, in the sense of Kolmogorov complexity. Specifically, we establish K(Pi_n) -…
We provide another proof to the EL Theorem. We show the tradeoff between compressibility of codebooks and their communication capacity. A resource bounded version of the EL Theorem is proven. This is used to prove three instances of…
We consider hypergraphs on vertices $P\cup R$ where each hyperedge contains exactly one vertex in $P$. Our goal is to select a matching that covers all of $P$, but we allow each selected hyperedge to drop all but an $(1/\alpha)$-fraction of…
Let T be the unit circle in the complex plane C. This paper proves the existence of analytic structure in a compact subset K of T X C^n, where K has so-called "lineally convex" or "hypoconvex" fibers over T. It also addresses a related…
In order to obtain solutions to problem $$ {{array}{c} -\Delta u=\dfrac{A+h(x)} {|x|^2}u+k(x)u^{2^*-1}, x\in {\mathbb R}^N, u>0 \hbox{in}{\mathbb R}^N, {and}u\in {\mathcal D}^{1,2}({\mathbb R}^N), {array}. $$ $h$ and $k$ must be chosen…
We generalize the concept of randomness in an infinite binary sequence in order to characterize the degree of randomness by a real number D>0. Chaitin's halting probability \Omega is generalized to \Omega^D whose degree of randomness is…
We prove two universality results for random tensors of arbitrary rank D. We first prove that a random tensor whose entries are N^D independent, identically distributed, complex random variables converges in distribution in the large N…
Let $(G_n(x))_{n=0}^\infty$ be a $d$-th order linear recurrence sequence having polynomial characteristic roots, one of which has degree strictly greater than the others. Moreover, let $m\geq 2$ be a given integer. We ask for…
We study the computably enumerable sets in terms of the: (a) Kolmogorov complexity of their initial segments; (b) Kolmogorov complexity of finite programs when they are used as oracles. We present an extended discussion of the existing…
In a lossless compression system with target lengths, a compressor ${\cal C}$ maps an integer $m$ and a binary string $x$ to an $m$-bit code $p$, and if $m$ is sufficiently large, a decompressor ${\cal D}$ reconstructs $x$ from $p$. We call…
The piecewise complexity $h(u)$ of a word is the minimal length of subwords needed to exactly characterise $u$. Its piecewise minimality index $\rho(u)$ is the smallest length $k$ such that $u$ is minimal among its order-$k$ class $[u]_k$…
In the context of commutative $C^*$-algebras we solve a problem related to a question of M. Rieffel by showing that the all-units rank and the norm-one rank coincide with the topological stable rank. We also introduce the notion of unitary…
From a theory developed by C. Mehl, et al., a theory of the rank one perturbation of Hamiltonian systems with periodic coefficients is proposed. It is showed that the rank one perturbation of the fundamental solution of Hamiltonian system…
The $\textbf{P}$ vs. $\textbf{NP}$ problem is an important problem in contemporary mathematics and theoretical computer science. Many proofs have been proposed to this problem. This paper proposes a theoretic proof for $\textbf{P}$ vs.…
Given a countable set X (usually taken to be the natural numbers or the integers), an infinite permutation \pi of X is a linear ordering of X. This paper investigates the combinatorial complexity of the infinite permutation on the natural…
Given a machine $U$, a $c$-short program for $x$ is a string $p$ such that $U(p)=x$ and the length of $p$ is bounded by $c$ + (the length of a shortest program for $x$). We show that for any standard Turing machine, it is possible to…
Various practical problems within the class $\Sigma_{2}^P$ possess an unambiguity property, meaning that yes-instances correspond with a unique witness. The semantic class containing all unambiguous $\Sigma_{2}^P$ problems is denoted…
