Ashby's law of requisite variety allows a comparison of systems with their environments, providing a necessary (but not sufficient) condition for system efficacy: a system must possess at least as much complexity as any set of environmental…

In previous work, the authors have each introduced methods for studying the 2-line of the p-local Adams-Novikov spectral sequence in terms of the arithmetic of modular forms. We give the precise relationship between the congruences of…

The paper investigates the behavior of Hilbert-Samuel and Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities in families of ideals. It is shown that Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity is upper semicontinuous almost generally and that Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is upper…

We prove the following two results 1. For a proper holomorphic function $ f : X \to D$ of a complex manifold $X$ on a disc such that $\{df = 0 \} \subset f^{-1}(0)$, we construct, in a functorial way, for each integer $p$, a geometric…

mu-constant families of holomorphic function germs with isolated singularities are considered from a global perspective. First, a monodromy group from all families which contain a fixed singularity is studied. It consists of automorphisms…

Let $(R,{\bf m})$ be a two-dimensional regular local ring with infinite residue field. We prove an analogue of the Hoskin-Deligne length formula for a finitely generated, torsion-free, integrally closed $R$-module $M$. As a consequence, we…

Infamously, the finite and unrestricted implication problems for the classes of i) functional and inclusion dependencies together, and ii) embedded multivalued dependencies alone are each undecidable. Famously, the restriction of i) to…

We study asymptotic properties of Bayesian multiple testing procedures and provide sufficient conditions for strong consistency under general dependence structure. We also consider a novel Bayesian multiple testing procedure and associated…

We propose a semantic foundation for logics for reasoning in settings that possess a distinction between equality of variables, a coarser equivalence of variables, and a notion of conditional independence between variables. We show that…

First-order logic with dependent sorts, such as Makkai's first-order logic with dependent sorts (FOLDS), or Aczel's and Belo's dependently typed (intuitionistic) first-order logic (DFOL), may be regarded as logic enriched dependent type…

In this paper, a Gaifman-Shapiro-style module architecture is tailored to the case of Smodels programs under the stable model semantics. The composition of Smodels program modules is suitably limited by module conditions which ensure the…

We define and study the natural multigraded extension of the relative multiplicities introduced by Simis, Ulrich and Vasconcelos. We call these new invariants relative mixed multiplicities. We show that they have a stable value equal to the…

Identifying dependency in multivariate data is a common inference task that arises in numerous applications. However, existing nonparametric independence tests typically require computation that scales at least quadratically with the sample…

Let $(\bf {V,0})\subset (\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ be a germ of a complex hypersurface and let $f: (\mathbb{C}^n,0)\to(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ be a germ of a finite holomorphic mapping. If germs $(\bf {V,0})$ and ${\bf W}:=(F^{-1}(\bf{ V})),0)$ are…

The category of all idempotent generated semigroups with a prescribed structure $\mathcal{E}$ of their idempotents $E$ (called the biordered set) has an initial object called the free idempotent generated semigroup over $\mathcal{E}$,…

In this article we provide a substantial discussion on the statistical concept of conditional independence, which is not routinely mentioned in most elementary statistics and mathematical statistics textbooks. Under the assumption of…

We offer new definitions of joint reductions and mixed Buchsbaum-Rim multiplicity for certain collections of modules over a Noetherian local ring and illustrate their application to give two different proofs of a joint-reduction-number-zero…

For a dust-like self-similar set (generated by IFSs with the strong separation condition), Elekes, Keleti and M\'{a}th\'{e} found an invariant, called `algebraic dependence number', by considering its generating IFSs and isometry invariant…

Local consistency arises in diverse areas, including Bayesian statistics, relational databases, and quantum foundations, and so does the notion of functional dependence. We adopt a general approach to study logical inference in a setting…

Classical invariant theory of a complex reflection group $W$ highlights three beautiful structures: -- the $W$-invariant polynomials constitute a polynomial algebra, over which -- the $W$-invariant differential forms with polynomial…
