The theory of Touchard polynomials is generalized using a method based on the definition of exponential operators, which extend the notion of the shift operator. The proposed technique, along with the use of the relevant operational…
A method is given for finding roots of a one-variable function using Taylor's expansion of that function and fractional derivative calculated at a suitable tangent point without using Newton's method, but is regarded as a variant of Halley…
We explore the sense in which the existing constructions for higher-order maps on quantum theory based on causality constraints and compositionality constraints respectively, coincide. More precisely, we construct a functor F : Caus(C) ->…
We propose another interpretation of well-known derivatives computations from regular expressions, due to Brzozowski, Antimirov or Lombardy and Sakarovitch, in order to abstract the underlying data structures (e.g. sets or linear…
We continue the program of structural differential geometry that begins with the notion of a tangent category, an axiomatization of structural aspects of the tangent functor on the category of smooth manifolds. In classical geometry, having…
We consider a pivotal monoidal functor whose domain is a modular tensor category (MTC). We show that the trace of such a functor naturally extends to a representation of the corresponding tube category. As irreducible representations of the…
Let $R$ be an integral domain and $G$ be a subgroup of its group of units. We consider the category $\mathbf{\mathsf{Cob}}_G$ of 3-dimensional cobordisms between oriented surfaces with connected boundary, equipped with a representation of…
This paper provides a new approach to derive various arbitrary high order finite difference formulae for the numerical differentiation of analytic functions. In this approach, various first and second order formulae for the numerical…
This thesis proposes a combinatorial generalization of a nilpotent operator on a vector space. The resulting object is highly natural, with basic connections to a variety of fields in pure mathematics, engineering, and the sciences. For the…
We present a framework for compositional program verification based on polynomial functors in dependent type theory. In this framework, polynomial functors serve as program interfaces, Kleisli morphisms for the free monad monad serve as…
A two-parameter deformation of the Touchard polynomials, based on the NEXT $q$-exponential function of Tsallis, defines two statistics on set partitions. The generating function of classical Touchard polynomials is a composition of two…
Tangent Model Composition (TMC) is a method to combine component models independently fine-tuned around a pre-trained point. Component models are tangent vectors to the pre-trained model that can be added, scaled, or subtracted to support…
Modular operads are a special type of operad: in fact, they bear the same relationship to operads that graphs do to trees (i.e. simply connected graphs). One of the basic examples of a modular operad is the collection of…
We have previously observed that the theory of solutions of partial differential equations, regarded as diffieties inside jet bundles, acquires a powerful comonadic formulation after passage from the category of Fr\'echet smooth manifolds…
Let $A$ be a $\nu$-vector of self-adjoint, pairwise commuting operators and $B$ a bounded operator of class $C^{n_0}(A)$. We prove a Taylor-like expansion of the commutator $[B,f(A)]$ for a large class of functions $f\colon\mathbm{R}^\nu…
Let T be Goedel's system of primitive recursive functionals of finite type in the lambda formulation. We define by constructive means using recursion on nested multisets a multivalued function I from the set of terms of T into the set of…
The differential $\lambda$-calculus studies how the quantitative aspects of programs correspond to differentiation and to Taylor expansion inside models of linear logic. Recent work has generalized the axioms of Taylor expansion so they…
Local fractional derivative and integrals are revealed as one of useful tools to deal with everywhere continuous but nowhere differentiable functions in fractal areas ranging from fundamental science to engineering. In this paper, a…
We analyze the conditions on the Taylor coefficients of an analytic function to admit global analytic continuation, complementing a recent paper of Breuer and Simon on general conditions for natural boundaries to form. A new summation…
A notion of central importance in categorical topology is that of topological functor. A faithful functor E -> B is called topological if it admits cartesian liftings of all (possibly large) families of arrows; the basic example is the…
