This work proposes a unified theory of regularity in one hypercomplex variable: the theory of $T$-regular functions. In the special case of quaternion-valued functions of one quaternionic variable, this unified theory comprises…
The one-way measurement model is a framework for universal quantum computation, in which algorithms are partially described by a graph G of entanglement relations on a collection of qubits. A sufficient condition for an algorithm to perform…
One-way functions are central to classical cryptography. They are both necessary for the existence of non-trivial classical cryptosystems, and sufficient to realize meaningful primitives including commitments, pseudorandom generators and…
In automata theory, the quantum computation has been widely examined for finite state machines, known as quantum finite automata (QFAs), and less attention has been given to the QFAs augmented with counters or stacks. Moreover, to our…
We present an extension to the $\mathtt{mathlib}$ library of the Lean theorem prover formalizing the foundations of computability theory. We use primitive recursive functions and partial recursive functions as the main objects of study, and…
A new class of functions is presented. The structure of the algorithm, particularly the selection criteria (branching), is used to define the fundamental property of the new class. The most interesting property of the new functions is that…
Integer iteration rules such as n |-> {a n + b, c n +d} are studied as minimal examples of the general process of multicomputation. Despite the simplicity of such rules, their multiway graphs can be complex, exhibiting, for example,…
The Additive Transform of an arithmetic function represents a novel approach to examining the interplay between multiplicative arithmetic function and additive functions. This transform concept introduces a method to systematically generate…
A family of partial functions of a class of algebras $\mathsf{K}$ is said to be an implicit operation of $\mathsf{K}$ when it is defined by a first order formula and it is preserved by homomorphisms. In this work, we develop the theory of…
We study the complexity classes P and NP through a semigroup fP ("polynomial-time functions"), consisting of all polynomially balanced polynomial-time computable partial functions. Then P is not equal to NP iff fP is a non-regular…
This is a chapter in the Encyclopedia of Robotics. It is devoted to the study of complexity of complete (or exact) algorithms for robot motion planning. The term ``complete'' indicates that an approach is guaranteed to find the correct…
Since no fusion theory neither rule fully satisfy all needed applications, the author proposes a Unification of Fusion Theories and a combination of fusion rules in solving problems/applications. For each particular application, one selects…
One approach to confronting computational hardness is to try to understand the contribution of various parameters to the running time of algorithms and the complexity of computational tasks. Almost no computational tasks in real life are…
We develop a novel formal theory of finite structures, based on a view of finite structures as a fundamental artifact of computing and programming, forming a common platform for computing both within particular finite structures, and in the…
Recently some Mathematician extend the notion of Baire one functions. We give some nice relations between this subring and some nice functions rings on a topological spaces.
The concept of functionality oriented programming is proposed, and some of its aspects are discussed, such as: (1) implementation independent basic types and generic collection types; (2) syntax requirements and recommendations for…
We focus on Optimal Transport PDE on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ with a particular type of cost function $c(x,y) = F(x \cdot y, x \cdot \hat{e}, y \cdot \hat{e})$ which we call cost functions with preferential direction, where $\hat{e}…
Interpretation methods and their restrictions to polynomials have been deeply used to control the termination and complexity of first-order term rewrite systems. This paper extends interpretation methods to a pure higher order functional…
The inverse first-passage problem for a Wiener process $(W_t)_{t\ge0}$ seeks to determine a function $b{}:{}\mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ such that \[\tau=\inf\{t>0| W_t\ge b(t)\}\] has a given law. In this paper two methods for approximating…
Artificial Intelligence - what is this? That is the question! In earlier papers we already gave a formal definition for AI, but if one desires to build an actual AI implementation, the following issues require attention and are treated…
