Complex continuous or mixed joint distributions (e.g., P(Y | z_1, z_2, ..., z_N)) generally lack closed-form solutions, often necessitating approximations such as MCMC. This paper proposes Indeterminate Probability Theory (IPT), which makes…
We investigate the interplay between coherent effects characteristic of the propagation of linear waves, the non-linear effects due to interactions, and the quantum manifestations of classical chaos due to geometrical confinement, as they…
The intersection set of Bayesian and nonparametric statistics was almost empty until about 1973, but now is growing at a healthy rate. This chapter, for the {\it Highly Structured Stochastic Systems} book (Oxford University Press, 2003)…
An intersection digraph is a digraph where every vertex $v$ is represented by an ordered pair $(S_v, T_v)$ of sets such that there is an edge from $v$ to $w$ if and only if $S_v$ and $T_w$ intersect. An intersection digraph is reflexive if…
We prove three theorems giving extremal bounds on the incidence structures determined by subsets of the points and blocks of a balanced incomplete block design (BIBD). These results generalize and strengthen known bounds on the number of…
We introduce an infinite variant of hypersurface support for finite-dimensional, noncommutative complete intersections. By a noncommutative complete intersection we mean an algebra R which admits a smooth deformation $Q\to R$ by a…
Tolerance graphs model interval relations in such a way that intervals can tolerate a certain amount of overlap without being in conflict. In one of the most natural generalizations of tolerance graphs with direct applications in the…
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…
Change point analysis has applications in a wide variety of fields. The general problem concerns the inference of a change in distribution for a set of time-ordered observations. Sequential detection is an online version in which new data…
We continue the study of intersection bodies of polytopes, focusing on the behavior of $IP$ under translations of $P$. We introduce an affine hyperplane arrangement and show that the polynomials describing the boundary of $I(P+t)$ can be…
For integers $0 \leq \ell \leq k_{r} \leq k_{c} \leq n$, we give a description for the Smith group of the incidence matrix with rows (columns) indexed by the size $k_r$ ($k_c$, respectively) subsets of an $n$-element set, where incidence…
We consider asymmetric convex intersection testing (ACIT). Let $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a set of $n$ points and $\mathcal{H}$ a set of $n$ halfspaces in $d$ dimensions. We denote by $\text{ch}(P)$ the polytope obtained by taking the…
This paper focuses on incidences over finite fields, extending to higher degrees a result by Vinh \cite{VINH20111177} on the number of point-line incidences in the plane $\mathbb{F}^2$, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a finite field. Specifically, we…
Enhancement of global symmetry and supersymmetry in the infrared is one of the most intriguing phenomena in quantum field theory. We investigate such phenomena in a large class of three dimensional superconformal field theories, known as…
Ewens-Pitman's partition structure arises as a system of sampling consistent probability distributions on set partitions induced by the Pitman-Yor process. It is widely used in statistical applications, particularly in species sampling…
We consider the problem of embedding the nodes of a hypergraph into Euclidean space under the assumption that the interactions arose through closeness to unknown hyperedge centres. In this way, we tackle the inverse problem associated with…
By a numerical continuation method called a diagonal homotopy we can compute the intersection of two positive dimensional solution sets of polynomial systems. This paper proposes to use this diagonal homotopy as the key step in a procedure…
We study intersection theory for differential algebraic varieties. Particularly, we study families of differential hypersurface sections of arbitrary affine differential algebraic varieties over a differential field. We prove the…
We show that the distribution of the major index over the set of involutions in S_n that avoid the pattern 321 is given by the q-analogue of the n-th central binomial coefficient. The proof consists of a composition of three non-trivial…
