Related papers: Downward Collapse from a Weaker Hypothesis

The top part of the preceding figure [figure appears in actual paper] shows some classes from the (truth-table) bounded-query and boolean hierarchies. It is well-known that if either of these hierarchies collapses at a given level, then all…

Downward collapse (a.k.a. upward separation) refers to cases where the equality of two larger classes implies the equality of two smaller classes. We provide an unqualified downward collapse result completely within the polynomial…

The pcf theorem (of the possible cofinality theory) was proved for reduced products prod_{i< kappa} lambda_i/I, where kappa < min_{i< kappa} lambda_i. Here we prove this theorem under weaker assumptions such as wsat(I)< min_{i< kappa}…

We prove that if $(M,\mathcal{X})$ and $(M,\mathcal{Y})$ are countable models of the theory $\mathrm{WKL}^*_0$ such that $\mathrm{I}\Sigma_1(A)$ fails for some $A \in \mathcal{X} \cap \mathcal{Y}$, then $(M,\mathcal{X})$ and…

Given any asymptotically flat 3-manifold $(M,g)$ with smooth, non-empty, compact boundary $\Sigma$, the conformal conjecture states that for every $\delta>0$, there exists a metric $g' = u^4 g$, with $u$ a harmonic function, such that the…

We extend the results of Deligne and Illusie on liftings modulo $p^2$ and decompositions of the de Rham complex in several ways. We show that for a smooth scheme $X$ over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$, the truncations of the…

By making use of arithmetic information inequalities, we give a strong quantitative bound for the discretised ring theorem. In particular, we show that if $A \subset [1,2]$ is a $(\delta,\sigma)$-set, with $|A| = \delta^{-\sigma},$ then…

In this article we prove the following version of the Weak-BAB conjecture for $3$-folds in char $p>5$: Fix a DCC set $I\subset [0, 1)$ and an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>5$. Let $\mathfrak{D}$ be a collection of klt…

Let $\mathcal{W}$ be a closed dilation and translation invariant subspace of the space of $\mathbb{R}^\ell$-valued Schwartz distributions in $d$ variables. We show that if the space $\mathcal{W}$ does not contain distributions of the type…

The purpose of this paper is to complete the proof of the following result. Let $0 < \beta \leq \alpha < 1$ and $\kappa > 0$. Then, there exists $\eta > 0$ such that whenever $A,B \subset \mathbb{R}$ are Borel sets with $\dim_{\mathrm{H}} A…

We prove that if the linear-time and polynomial-time hierarchies coincide, then every model of $\Pi_1(\mathbb{N}) + \neg \Omega_1$ has a proper end-extension to a model of $\Pi_1(\mathbb{N})$, and so $\Pi_1(\mathbb{N}) + \neg \Omega_1…

In this paper the existence of solutions, $(\lambda,u)$, of the problem $$-\Delta u=\lambda u -a(x)|u|^{p-1}u \quad \hbox{in }\Omega, \qquad u=0 \quad \hbox{on}\;\;\partial\Omega,$$ is explored for $0 < p < 1$. When $p>1$, it is known that…

Counterfactual Explanations are becoming a de-facto standard in post-hoc interpretable machine learning. For a given classifier and an instance classified in an undesired class, its counterfactual explanation corresponds to small…

In this paper, we study the class ${\Sigma^{(m)}(p)}$ of meromorphic univalent functions $f$ in $\mathbb{D}$ with a pole of order ${m \geq 1}$ at $p \in (0,1)$, admitting a $k$-quasiconformal extension ($0 \leq k < 1$) to…

A copula of continuous random variables $X$ and $Y$ is called an \emph{implicit dependence copula} if there exist functions $\alpha$ and $\beta$ such that $\alpha(X) = \beta(Y)$ almost surely, which is equivalent to $C$ being factorizable…

Given any $f$ a locally finitely piecewise affine homeomorphism of $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ onto $\Delta \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ (for $d=3, 4$) such that $f\in W^{1,p}(\Omega, \mathbb{R}^d)$ and $f^{-1}\in W^{1,q}(\Delta, \mathbb{R}^d)$,…

We study the relationship between measures of non-exchangeability $\mu_p$ ($p\in[1,+\infty]$), in the sense of Durante et al. (2010), and classical dependence functionals for bivariate copulas. We show that the symmetrization…

We prove several theorems on sigma-bounded and sigma-compact pointsets. We start with a known theorem by Kechris, saying that any lightface \Sigma^1_1 set of the Baire space either is effectively sigma-bounded (that is, covered by a…

We show that in a weak globular $\omega$-category, all composition operations are equivalent and commutative for cells with sufficiently degenerate boundary, which can be considered a higher-dimensional generalisation of the Eckmann-Hilton…

The Hardy--Littlewood inequality for complex homogeneous polynomials asserts that given positive integers $m\geq2$ and $n\geq1$, if $P$ is a complex homogeneous polynomial of degree $m$ on $\ell_{p}^{n}$ with $2m\leq p\leq\infty$ given by…
