Several authors have conjectured that Conway's field of surreal numbers, equipped with the exponential function of Kruskal and Gonshor, can be described as a field of transseries and admits a compatible differential structure of Hardy-type.…
The nonassociativity of the octonion algebra necessitates a bimodule representation, in which each element is represented by a left and a right multiplier. This representation can then be used to generate gauge transformations for the…
Given a sequence $(X_n)$ of real or complex random variables and a sequence of numbers $(a_n)$, an interesting problem is to determine the conditions under which the series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n X_n$ is almost surely convergent. This paper…
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$ be a domain whose Bergman space contains all holomorphic monomials. We derive sufficient conditions for $\Omega$ to be Reinhardt, complete Reinhardt, circular or Hartogs in terms of the orthogonality…
We construct a version of kneading theory for families of monotonous functions on the real line. The generality of the setup covers two classical results from Milnor-Thurston's kneading theory: the first one is to dynamically characterise…
The most important open problem in Monotone Operator Theory concerns the maximal monotonicity of the sum of two maximal monotone operators provided that Rockafellar's constraint qualification holds. In this note, we provide a new maximal…
We study the relationship between fields of transseries and residue fields of convex subrings of non-standard extensions of the real numbers. This was motivated by a question of Todorov and Vernaeve, answered in this paper.
Additional remarks and questions for transseries. In particular: properties of composition for transseries; the recursive nature of the construction of R[[[ x ]]]; modes of convergence for transseries. There are, at this stage, questions…
We give a presentation of Conway's surreal numbers focusing on the connections with transseries and Hardy fields and trying to simplify when possible the existing treatments.
Transfinite set theory including the axiom of choice supplies the following basic theorems: (1) Mappings between infinite sets can always be completed, such that at least one of the sets is exhausted. (2) The real numbers can be well…
Let $\Omega_n$ stand for the volume of the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $n\in\mathbb{N}$. In the present paper, we prove that the sequence $\Omega_{n}^{1/(n\ln n)}$ is logarithmically convex and that the sequence…
A Taylor variety consists of all fixed order Taylor polynomials of rational functions, where the number of variables and degrees of numerators and denominators are fixed. In one variable, Taylor varieties are given by rank constraints on…
Let $\mathbb{T}$ be the differential field of logarithmic-exponential transseries. We show that the expansion of $\mathbb{T}$ by its natural exponential function is model complete and locally o-minimal. We give an axiomatization of the…
The matrix model formulation of M-theory can be generalized by compactification to ten-dimensional type II string theory, formulated in the infinite momentum frame. Both the type IIA and IIB string theories can be formulated in this way. In…
We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…
Every maximal Hardy field has a proper elementary differential subfield that is Dedekind complete in the maximal Hardy field. This pair of Hardy fields is a transserial tame pair, shown to have a complete and model complete elementary…
In [26], the algebraico-tree-theoretic simplicity hierarchical structure of J. H. Conway's ordered field $\mathbf{No}$ of surreal numbers was brought to the fore and employed to provide necessary and sufficient conditions for an ordered…
Let $f$ be a holomorphic function on the unit disc, and $(S_{n_{k}})$ be a subsequence of its Taylor polynomials about $0$. It is shown that the nontangential limit of $f$ and lim$_{k\rightarrow \infty }S_{n_{k}}$ agree at almost all points…
The orthogonal groups are a series of simple Lie groups associated to symmetric bilinear forms. There is no analogous series associated to symmetric trilinear forms. We introduce an infinite dimensional group-like object that can be viewed…
