We generalize the dual notions of "expansion" and "collapse" so they can be applied to arbitrary metric spaces. We also expand the theory to allow for infinitely many such moves. Those tools are then employed to prove a variety of…

This paper provides a unifying view of a wide range of problems of interest in machine learning by framing them as the minimization of functionals defined on the space of probability measures. In particular, we show that generative…

The countable uniform power (or uniform box product) of a uniform space $X$ is a special topology on ${}^{\omega}X$ that lies between the Tychonoff topology and the box topology. We solve an open problem posed by P. Nyikos showing that if…

Accepting a proposition means that our confidence in this proposition is strictly greater than the confidence in its negation. This paper investigates the subclass of uncertainty measures, expressing confidence, that capture the idea of…

We extend the coopetition index introduced by Aleandri and Dall'Aglio (2025) for simple games to the broader class of monotone transferable utility (TU) games and to all non-empty coalitions, including singletons. The new formulation allows…

We study countable embedding-universal and homomorphism-universal structures and unify results related to both of these notions. We show that many universal and ultrahomogeneous structures allow a concise description (called here a finite…

We give a self-contained and short proof for the existence, uniqueness and measurability of so called $p$-harmonious functions. The proofs only use elementary analytic tools. As a consequence, we obtain existence, uniqueness and…

We present an extension to the quantifier-free theory of integer arrays which allows us to express counting. The properties expressible in Array Folds Logic (AFL) include statements such as "the first array cell contains the array length,"…

We consider a problem of guessing, wherein an adversary is interested in knowing the value of the realization of a discrete random variable $X$ on observing another correlated random variable $Y$. The adversary can make multiple (say, $k$)…

With a simple generic approach, we develop a classification that encodes and measures the strength of completeness (or compactness) properties in various types of spaces and ordered structures. The approach also allows us to encode notions…

The Ordinal Folding Index (OFI) is a new, fully computable yard-stick that measures how many rounds of self-reference a statement, protocol or position must unfold before its truth or outcome stabilises. By turning this abstract 'fold-back'…

Pseudoentropy characterizations provide a quantitatively precise demonstration of the close relationship between computational hardness and computational randomness. We prove a unified pseudoentropy characterization that generalizes and…

Value methods for solving stochastic games with partial observability model the uncertainty about states of the game as a probability distribution over possible states. The dimension of this belief space is the number of states. For many…

We show that in contrast with the Cohen version of Solovay's model, it is consistent for the continuum to be Cohen-measurable and for every function to be continuous on a non-meagre set.

Using forcing with measured creatures we build a universe of set theory in which: (a) every sup-measurable function f:RxR-->R is measurable, and (b) every function f:R-->R is continuous on a non-measurable set. This answers a question of…
