This paper presents a simulation-based framework for sequential inference from partially and discretely observed point process (PP's) models with static parameters. Taking on a Bayesian perspective for the static parameters, we build upon…
For the mixed CM point (a,b,c) = (1/6, 1/3, 1), define A_n^{mix} := 108^n [z^n] _2F_1(1/6, 1/3; 1; z)^3. For every split prime p >= 7, p == 1 mod 3, and every m >= 1, we prove unconditionally A_{mp}^{mix} == A_m^{mix} mod p^4. The exponent…

By optimizing the predicted performance over a receding horizon, model predictive control (MPC) provides the ability to enforce state and control constraints. The present paper considers an extension of MPC for nonlinear systems that can be…
The non-commutative Central Limit Theorem (CLT) introduced by Speicher in 1992 states that given almost any sequence of non-commutative random variables that commute or anti-commute pair-wise, the *-moments of the normalized partial sum…
We indicate a way of distinguishing between structures, for which, two structures are said to be separable.Being separable implies being non-isomorphic. We show that for any first order theory $T$ in a countable language, if it has an…
We propose a computationally tractable, tube-based robust nonlinear model predictive control (MPC) framework using difference-of-convex (DC) functions and sequential convex programming. For systems with differentiable discrete time…
Friedrichs et al. (TC 2018) showed that metastability can be contained when sorting inputs arising from time-to-digital converters, i.e., measurement values can be correctly sorted without resolving metastability using synchronizers first.…
In this paper, we revisit the computation of controlled invariant sets for linear discrete-time systems through a trajectory-based viewpoint. We begin by introducing the notion of convex feasible points, which provides a new…
We introduce a one-step cascade symmetric system whose local symmetry geometry is organized by finite $\rho$-closed windows and one-step stars rather than by rowwise-independent toggles. The resulting symmetric model isolates a new $ZF + DC…
In this work we provide algorithmic solutions to five fundamental problems concerning the verification, synthesis and correction of concurrent systems that can be modeled by bounded p/t-nets. We express concurrency via partial orders and…
The technique of symmetric extensions is derived from forcing and it is one of the most important tools for studying models without the Axiom of Choice. Despite being incredibly successful since the 1960s, our understanding of the technique…
The phase transition in a 3D array of classical anharmonic oscillators with harmonic nearest-neighbour coupling (discrete $\phi^4$ model) is studied by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations and by analytical methods. The model allows to choose a…
We describe in more detail our approach to the conformal bootstrap which uses the Mellin representation of $CFT_d$ four point functions and expands them in terms of crossing symmetric combinations of $AdS_{d+1}$ Witten exchange functions.…
Regularity properties of the pressure are related to phase transitions. In this article we study thermodynamic formalism for systems defined in non-compact phase spaces, our main focus being countable Markov shifts. We produce metric…
