We define a duality operation connecting closure operations, interior operations, and test ideals, and describe how the duality acts on common constructions such as trace, torsion, tight and integral closures, and divisible submodules. This…
We propose a new paradigm for Belief Change in which the new information is represented as sets of models, while the agent's body of knowledge is represented as a finite set of formulae, that is, a finite base. The focus on finiteness is…
To, say, a proper algebraic or holomorphic space $X/S$, and a coherent sheaf ${\mathcal F}$ on $X$ we identify a functorial ideal, the fitted flatifier, blowing up sequentially in which leads to a flattening of the proper transform of…
We continue the study of the rich family of norm-closed, automorphism invariant ideals of a continuous nest algebra. First we present a unified framework which captures all stable ideals as the kernels of limits of diagonal compressions. We…
One studies plane Cremona maps by focusing on the ideal theoretic and homological properties of its homogeneous base ideal ("indeterminacy locus"). The {\em leitmotiv} driving a good deal of the work is the relation between the base ideal…
We derive a new closed-form variance-adaptive confidence sequence (CS) for estimating the average conditional mean of a sequence of bounded random variables. Empirically, it yields the tightest closed-form CS we have found for tracking…
In this paper, we introduce and study two new classes of commutative rings, namely semi transitional rings and transitional rings, which extend several classical ideas arising from rings of continuous functions and their variants. A general…
Closed graphs have been characterized by Herzog et al. as the graphs whose binomial edge ideals have a quadratic Gr\"obner basis with respect to a diagonal term order. In this paper, we focus on a generalization of closed graphs, namely…
We propose a new and rather stringent criterion for testing the goodness of fit between a theory and experiment. It is motivated by the paradox that the criterion on \chi^2 for testing a theory is much weaker than the criterion for finding…
Classical tests of goodness-of-fit aim to validate the conformity of a postulated model to the data under study. Given their inferential nature, they can be considered a crucial step in confirmatory data analysis. In their standard…
We discuss the relation between questions regarding the essential normality of finitely generated essentially spherical isometries and some results and conjectures of Arveson and Guo-Wang on the closure of homogeneous ideals in the m-shift…
Statistical discoveries are often obtained through multiple hypothesis testing. A variety of procedures exists to evaluate multiple hypotheses, for instance the ones of Benjamini-Hochberg, Bonferroni, Holm or Sidak. We are particularly…
This work comprises a detailed theoretical and computational study of the boundary value problem for transversely isotropic linear elastic bodies. General conditions for well-posedness are derived in terms of the material parameters. The…
Many real life optimization problems contain both hard and soft constraints, as well as qualitative conditional preferences. However, there is no single formalism to specify all three kinds of information. We therefore propose a framework,…
Suppose we are given a graph and want to show a property for all its cycles (closed chains). Induction on the length of cycles does not work since sub-chains of a cycle are not necessarily closed. This paper derives a principle reminiscent…
We study ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the following Baire-type property: if $X$ is a complete metric space and $\{X_{A} \colon A \in \mathcal{I} \}$ is a family of nowhere dense subsets of $X$ with $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…
Inner ideals of simple locally finite dimensional Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are described. In particular, it is shown that a simple locally finite dimensional Lie algebra has a non-zero proper inner…
With each Fell bundle over a discrete group G we associate a partial action of G on the spectrum of the unit fiber. We discuss the ideal structure of the corresponding full and reduced cross-sectional C*-algebras in terms of the dynamics of…
In this paper, we introduce and study the class $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML of $S$-Mittag-Leffler modules with respect to all flat modules. We show that a ring $R$ is $S$-coherent if and only if $S$-$\mathcal{F}$-ML is closed under submodules. As…
Longstanding anomalies in neutrino oscillation experiments point to the existence of a fourth, hypothetical neutrino: the sterile neutrino. Global fits to a sterile neutrino model find a strong preference for such a model over the massive…
