In this paper, a new concept, i.e. ultra-chaos, is proposed for the first time. Unlike a normal-chaos, statistical properties such as the probability density functions (PDF) of an ultra-chaos are sensitive to tiny disturbances. We…
Abstract upper densities are monotone and subadditive functions from the power set of positive integers to the unit real interval that generalize the upper densities used in number theory, including the upper asymptotic density, the upper…
Using ultraproduct techniques we define a nonstandard Minkowski dimension which exists for all bounded sets and which has the property that $\dim(A\times B)=\dim(A)+\dim(B).$ That is, our new dimension is product-summable. To illustrate our…
The paper entitled "Well posedness of general cross-diffusion systems", by C. Choquet, C. Rosier, L. Rosier, J. Diff. Eq. 2021, is devoted to the mathematical analysis of the Cauchy problem for general cross-diffusion systems without any…
We use Shelah's theory of possible cofinalities in order to solve a problem about ultrafilters. THEOREM. Suppose that $ \lambda $ is a singular cardinal, $ \lambda ' < \lambda $, and the ultrafilter $D$ is $ \kappa $-decomposable for all…
We study the low Mach number limit of the compressible Euler equations through the lens of convex integration. For any prescribed $L^2$ weak solution of the incompressible Euler equations, we construct a corresponding family of weak…
We study various combinatorial properties, and the implications between them, for filters generated by infinite-dimensional subspaces of a countable vector space. These properties are analogous to selectivity for ultrafilters on the natural…
We describe the greatest ambit and the universal minimal flow as spaces of near ultrafilters. We translate other notions of topological dynamics into this language and show how this approach simplifies some known proofs. We provide a simple…
The differential-geometric structure of the set of positive densities on a given measure space has raised the interest of many mathematicians after the discovery by C.R. Rao of the geometric meaning of the Fisher information. Most of the…
We prove that under H\"ormander's type conditions on the coefficients of the unobservable component of a partially observable diffusion process the filtering density is infinitely differentiable and can be represented as the integral of an…
Superfilters are generalized ultrafilters, which capture the underlying concept in Ramsey theoretic theorems such as van der Waerden's Theorem. We establish several properties of superfilters, which generalize both Ramsey's Theorem and its…
Given a semigroup $S$, we introduce relative (with respect to a filter $\tau$ on $S$) versions of large, thick and prethick subsets of $S$, give the ultrafilter characterizations of these subsets and explain how large could be some cell in…
This collection of studies on new physics at the LHC constitutes the report of the supersymmetry working group at the Workshop `Physics at TeV Colliders', Les Houches, France, 2007. They cover the wide spectrum of phenomenology in the LHC…
Sofic and hyperlinear groups are the countable discrete groups that can be approximated in a suitable sense by finite symmetric groups and groups of unitary matrices. These notions turned out to be very deep and fruitful, and stimulated in…
This survey contains a selection of topics unified by the concept of positive semi-definiteness (of matrices or kernels), reflecting natural constraints imposed on discrete data (graphs or networks) or continuous objects (probability or…
Abstract upper densities are monotone and subadditive functions from the power set of positive integers into the unit real interval that generalize the upper densities used in number theory, including the upper asymptotic density, the upper…
Our results in this paper increase the model-theoretic precision of a widely used method for building ultrafilters, and so advance the general problem of constructing ultrafilters whose ultrapowers have a precise degree of saturation. We…
We continue the study of the pseudo-intersection property with respect to an ideal introduced in \cite{TomNatasha2}. Our theory applies to the study of the Tukey types of general sums of ultrafilters, which, as evidenced by the results of…
Convexity is an important notion in non linear optimization theory as well as in infinite dimensional functional analysis. As will be seen below, very simple and powerful tools will be derived from elementary duality arguments (which are…
This paper introduces the expanded real numbers as an ordered subring of the hyperreal number field that does not contain any infinitesimals, and defines the set of all integrable functions from the real numbers to the expanded real…
