High-order accurate, $\textit{entropy stable}$ numerical methods for hyperbolic conservation laws have attracted much interest over the last decade, but only a few rigorous convergence results are available, particularly in multiple space…
A first-order structure $\mathfrak{A}$ is called monadically stable iff every expansion of $\mathfrak{A}$ by unary predicates is stable. In this article we give a classification of the class $\mathcal{M}$ of $\omega$-categorical monadically…
