This paper introduces a new simplified version of the countable branching recurrence of Computability Logic, proves its equivalence to the old one, and shows that the basic logic induced by it is a proper superset of the basic logic induced…
A longstanding open problem in lambda calculus is whether there exist continuous models of the untyped lambda calculus whose theory is exactly the least lambda-theory lambda-beta or the least sensible lambda-theory H (generated by equating…
A new error bound for the linear complementarity problem when the matrix involved is a B-matrix is presented, which improves the corresponding result in [C.Q. Li et al., A new error bound for linear complementarity problems for B-matrices.…
Since the discovery of critical mistakes in Rauszer's work on bi-intuitionistic logics, solid foundations for these have progressively been rebuilt. However, the algebraic treatment of these logics has not yet been tended to. We fill this…
We examine a new approach to modeling uncertainty based on plausibility measures, where a plausibility measure just associates with an event its plausibility, an element is some partially ordered set. This approach is easily seen to…
The earlier paper "Introduction to clarithmetic I" constructed an axiomatic system of arithmetic based on computability logic (see http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~giorgi/cl.html), and proved its soundness and extensional completeness with respect…
We give an introduction to a theory of b-functions, i.e. Bernstein-Sato polynomials. After reviewing some facts from D-modules, we introduce b-functions including the one for arbitrary ideals of the structure sheaf. We explain the relation…
We study relative precompleteness in the context of the theory of numberings, and relate this to a notion of lowness. We introduce a notion of divisibility for numberings, and use it to show that for the class of divisible numberings,…
Bayesian inference is limited in scope because it cannot be applied in idealized contexts where none of the hypotheses under consideration is true and because it is committed to always using the likelihood as a measure of evidential…
The probability axioms by R. T. Cox can be regarded as the modern foundations of Bayesian inference, the idea of assigning degrees of belief to logical propositions in a manner consistent with Boolean logic. In this work it is shown that…
New (infinitely many) rational approximants to \zeta(3) proving its irrationality are given. The recurrence relations for the numerator and denominator of these approximants as well as their continued fraction expansions are obtained. A…
We propose the notions of uniform local weak o-minimality and $*$-local weak o-minimality. Local monotonicity theorems hold in definably complete locally o-minimal structures and uniformly locally o-minimal structures of the second kind. In…
We fix a gap in the proof of a result in our earlier paper "Generalised notions of amenability, II" (J. Funct. Anal. 254 (2008) 1776-1810), and so provide a new proof to a characterization of amenability for Beurling algebras. The result…
In respect of b-linear functional, Riesz representation theorem in n-Hilbert space have been proved. We define b-sesquilinear functional in n-Hilbert space and establish the polarization identities. A generalized form of the Schwarz…
In this letter, we prove an inequality involving alternating binomial logarithmic sums by exploiting the variance of the logarithm of the maximum of independent and identically distributed exponential random variables. This inequality was…
The Lueders postulate is reviewed and implications for the distinguishability of observables are discussed. As an example the distinguishability of two similar observables for spin-1/2 particles is described. Implementation issues are…
Arrangements of lines and pseudolines are fundamental objects in discrete and computational geometry. They also appear in other areas of computer science, such as the study of sorting networks. Let $B_n$ be the number of nonisomorphic…
Elementary proofs of Sylvester's, Wolstenholme's, Morley's and Lehmer's congruence theorems
We present and examine a result related to uncertainty reasoning, namely that a certain plausibility space of Cox's type can be uniquely embedded in a minimal ordered field. This, although a purely mathematical result, can be claimed to…
We discuss recent higher order calculations to properties of $B$ mesons. This includes next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to nonleptonic and next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to semileptonic $B$ meson decays. The…
