Over 300 sequences and many unsolved problems and conjectures related to them are presented herein. These notions, definitions, unsolved problems, questions, theorems corollaries, formulae, conjectures, examples, mathematical criteria, etc.…
We consider lattices of regular sets of non negative integers, i.e. of sets definable in Presbuger arithmetic. We prove that if such a lattice is closed under decrement then it is also closed under many other functions: quotients by an…
This paper provides a new approach to derive various arbitrary high order finite difference formulae for the numerical differentiation of analytic functions. In this approach, various first and second order formulae for the numerical…
We investigate the definability (reducts) lattice of the order of integers and describe a sublattice generated by relations 'between', 'cycle', 'separation', 'neighbor', '1-codirection', 'order' and equality'. Some open questions are…
We give a simple order-theoretic construction of a Cartesian closed category of sequential functions. It is based on bistable biorders, which are sets with a partial order -- the extensional order -- and a bistable coherence, which captures…
The representation of mathematical objects in terms of (more) basic ones is part and parcel of (the foundations of) mathematics. In the usual foundations of mathematics, i.e. $\textsf{ZFC}$ set theory, all mathematical objects are…
Probabilistic submeasures generalizing the classical (numerical) submeasures are introduced and discussed in connection with some classes of aggregation functions. A special attention is paid to triangular norm-based probabilistic…
In the present paper we generate binary pseudorandom sequences using generalized polynomials. A generalized polynomial is a function in whose description we not only allow addition and product (as it is the case in usual polynomials) but…
This paper defines a new pseudometric for binary relations between finite sets that measures consensus among subsets. The main results are (1) a concise restatement of this pseudometric with an intuitively appealing interpretation via a…
This paper presents a distance function between sets based on an average of distances between their elements. The distance function is a metric if the sets are non-empty finite subsets of a metric space. It can be applied to produce various…
Sequential modelling entails making sense of sequential data, which naturally occurs in a wide array of domains. One example is systems that interact with users, log user actions and behaviour, and make recommendations of items of potential…
Metric-preserving functions (here, metric aggregation functions) offer a natural method for constructing metrics on Cartesian products of metric spaces or for aggregating multiple metrics defined on a common set. Strongly metric-preserving…
Continuous models used in physics and other areas of mathematics applications become discrete when they are computerized, e.g., utilized for computations. Besides, computers are controlling processes in discrete spaces, such as films and…
Pseudorandmness plays an important role in number theory, complexity theory and cryptography. Our aim is to use models of arithmetic to explain pseudorandomness by randomness. To this end we construct a set of models $\cal M$, a common…
We study pseudorandomness and pseudorandom generators from the perspective of logical definability. Building on results from ordinary derandomization and finite model theory, we show that it is possible to deterministically construct, in…
We study the set of all pseudoline arrangements with contact points which cover a given support. We define a natural notion of flip between these arrangements and study the graph of these flips. In particular, we provide an enumeration…
Circumcenters play an important role in the design and analysis of accelerating various iterative methods in optimization. In this work, we propose Bregman (pseudo-)circumcenters associated with finite sets. We show the existence and give…
We study zeta functions enumerating subalgebras or ideals of Lie algebras over finite field of prime order $\mathbb{F}_p$. We first develop a general blueprint method for computing zeta functions of $\mathbb{F}_p$-Lie algebras, and…
We introduce the concept of quotient-convergence for sequences of submodular set functions, providing, among others, a new framework for the study of convergence of matroids through their rank functions. Extending the limit theory of…
It is shown how Dedekind cuts can be used to introduce the extended real numbers along with sound arithmetic laws via one simple rule for the addition of sets. The crucial idea is that the use of the lower and the upper part of the cuts,…
