Considering the large number of fractional operators that exist, and since it does not seem that their number will stop increasing soon at the time of writing this paper, it is presented for the first time, as far as the authors know, a…

A supervised learning algorithm searches over a set of functions $A \to B$ parametrised by a space $P$ to find the best approximation to some ideal function $f\colon A \to B$. It does this by taking examples $(a,f(a)) \in A\times B$, and…

Kronheimer and Mrowka used gauge theory to define a functor $J^\sharp$ from a category of webs in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to the category of finite-dimensional vector spaces over the field of two elements. They also suggested a possible…

Derivatives and integration operators are well-studied examples of linear operators that commute with scaling up to a fixed multiplicative factor; i.e., they are scale-invariant. Fractional order derivatives (integration operators) also…

The focus of this paper is to extend Fisher's linear discriminant analysis (LDA) to both densely re-corded functional data and sparsely observed longitudinal data for general $c$-category classification problems. We propose an efficient…

We consider some multivariate rational functions which have (or are conjectured to have) only positive coefficients in their series expansion. We consider an operator that preserves positivity of series coefficients, and apply the inverse…

In practice functional data are sampled on a discrete set of observation points and often susceptible to noise. We consider in this paper the setting where such data are used as explanatory variables in a regression problem. If the primary…

Many problems in Physics and Chemistry are formulated as the minimization of a functional. Therefore, methods for solving these problems typically require differentiating maps whose input and/or output are functions -- commonly referred to…

Many different types of fractional calculus have been defined, which may be categorised into broad classes according to their properties and behaviours. Two types that have been much studied in the literature are the Hadamard-type…

We introduce the resolvent composition, a monotonicity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a set-valued operator, as well as the proximal composition, a convexity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a function.…

We prove that any right Quillen functor between arbitrary model categories admits non trivial functorial factorizations that are similar to those of a model structure. We also prove that these factorizations can be made for lax monoidal…

In the first part of this note, we review and compare various instances of the notion of twisted coefficient system, a.k.a. polynomial functor, appearing in the literature. This notion hinges on how one defines the degree of a functor from…
