We first study probabilistic dynamical systems from logical perspective. To this purpose, we introduce the finitary dynamic probability logic} ($\mathsf{DPL}$), as well as its infinitary extension $\mathsf{DPL}_{\omega_1}\!$. Both these…

The purpose of this paper is to build a new bridge between category theory and a generalized probability theory known as noncommutative probability or quantum probability, which was originated as a mathematical framework for quantum theory,…

Markov categories have recently emerged as a powerful high-level framework for probability theory and theoretical statistics. Here we study a quantum version of this concept, called involutive Markov categories. These are equivalent to…

We construct categorifications of tensor products of arbitrary finite-dimensional irreducible representations of $\mathfrak{sl}_k$ with subquotient categories of the BGG category $\mathcal{O}$, generalizing previous work of Sussan and…

Tensor models play an increasingly prominent role in many fields, notably in machine learning. In several applications, such as community detection, topic modeling and Gaussian mixture learning, one must estimate a low-rank signal from a…

Tannaka duality and its extensions by Lurie, Sch\"appi et al. reveal that many schemes as well as algebraic stacks may be identified with their tensor categories of quasi-coherent sheaves. In this thesis we study constructions of cocomplete…

We develop the theory of continuous and algebraic domains in constructive and predicative univalent foundations, building upon our earlier work on basic domain theory in this setting. That we work predicatively means that we do not assume…

Bobkov (J. Theoret. Probab. 18(2) (2005) 399-412) investigated an approximate de Finetti representation for probability measures, on product measurable spaces, which are symmetric under permutations of coordinates. One of the main results…

A construction of product measures is given for an arbitrary sequence of measure spaces via outer measure techniques without imposing any condition on the underlying measure spaces. This approach concludes finally the problem of the…

A general theory is developed to study individual based models which are discrete in time. We begin by constructing a Markov chain model that converges to a one-dimensional map in the infinite population limit. Stochastic fluctuations are…

We characterise the embedding of the spatial product of two Arveson systems into their tensor product using the random set technique. An important implication is that the spatial tensor product does not depend on the choice of the reference…

We start the general structure theory of not necessarily semisimple finite tensor categories, generalizing the results in the semisimple case (i.e. for fusion categories), obtained recently in our joint work with D.Nikshych. In particular,…

In this note, we develop some of the basic theory of s-finite (measures and) kernels, a little-studied class that Staton has recently argued convincingly to be precisely the semantic counterpart of (first-order) probabilistic programs. We…

Observables in random tensor theory are polynomials in the entries of a tensor of rank $d$ which are invariant under $U(N)^d$. It is notoriously difficult to evaluate the expectations of such polynomials, even in the Gaussian distribution.…
