Contribution to the discussion of "When should meta-analysis avoid making hidden normality assumptions?" by Dan Jackson and Ian R. White (2018; https://doi.org/10.1002/bimj.201800071).
This note started out as a letter to J\"urgen Ritter and is brief attempt to entice some number theorists to study hom-Lie algebras.
In this paper we shall consider some famous means such as arithmetic, harmonic, geometric, root square mean, etc. Considering the difference of these means, we can establish. some inequalities among them. Interestingly, the difference of…
I shall argue that a resolution of the PvNP problem requires building an iff bridge between the domain of provability and that of computability. The former concerns how a human intelligence decides the truth of number-theoretic relations,…
The semantics for counterfactuals due to David Lewis has been challenged on the basis of unlikely, or impossible, events. Such events may skew a given similarity order in favour of those possible worlds which exhibit them. By updating the…
Using publicly available data to determine the performance of methodological contributions is important as it facilitates reproducibility and allows scrutiny of the published results. In lung nodule classification, for example, many works…
In this note we give a counterexample to a conjecture proposed by Ciliberto about special linear systems of P^n through multiple base points.
This article reformulates the theory of computable physical models, previously introduced by the author, as a branch of applied model theory in first-order logic. It provides a semantic approach to the philosophy of science that…
We say that an arithmetical function $S:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow\mathbb{Z}$ has Lucas property if for any prime $p$, \begin{equation*} S(n)\equiv S(n_{0})S(n_{1})\ldots S(n_{r})\pmod p, \end{equation*} where $n=\sum_{i=0}^{r}n_{i}p^{i}$, with…
Many sources of new physics can lead to shifts in the Standard Model predictions for cross sections and asymmetries at the NLC below their direct production thresholds. In this talk we discuss some of the tools that are useful for…
Fienberg convincingly demonstrates that Bayesian models and methods represent a powerful approach to squeezing illumination from data in public policy settings. However, no school of inference is without its weaknesses, and, in the face of…
We present a method of generating first-order logic statements whose complexity can be controlled along multiple dimensions. We use this method to automatically create several datasets consisting of questions asking for the truth or falsity…
The ability (and inability) of large language models (LLMs) to perform arithmetic tasks has been the subject of much theoretical and practical debate. We show that LLMs are frequently able to correctly and confidently predict the first…
Assessment of replicability is critical to ensure the quality and rigor of scientific research. In this paper, we discuss inference and modeling principles for replicability assessment. Targeting distinct application scenarios, we propose…
This chapter is based on a talk given at the Science and Ultimate Reality meeting in March, 2002, in honour of John Archibald Wheeler. In it, I discuss some questions related to what can and cannot be said about the history of a quantum…
In this short paper, I present a few theorems on sentences of arithmetic which are related to Yablo's Paradox as G\"odel's first undecidable sentence was related to the Liar paradox. In particular, I consider two different arithemetizations…
Preliminary version of a book on univariate real analysis, with 14 chapters and 2 appendices. 1. Real numbers; 2. Limits of real sequences; 3. Series; 4. Limits of real functions. 5. Elementary functions; 6. Continuous functions; 7.…
This paper is concerned with the representation theory of finite groups. According to Robinson, the truth of certain variants of Alperin's weight conjecture on the $p$-blocks of a finite group would imply some arithmetical conditions on the…
Recent developments in the field of high precision calculations in the Standard Model are illustrated with particular emphasis on the evidence for radiative corrections and on the estimate of the theoretical error in perturbative…
