This paper is an attempt to bring together two approaches to language analysis. The possible use of probabilistic information in principle-based grammars and parsers is considered, including discussion on some theoretical and computational…
We formalize the general principle of significance with respect to binary relations which is a universal tool for description and analysis of various situations in and apart from mathematics. We derive the basic properties and focus on a…
We provide numerical procedures for possibly best evaluating the sum of positive series. Our procedures are based on the application of a generalized version of Kummer's test.
The comparison of benchmark error sets is an essential tool for the evaluation of theories in computational chemistry. The standard ranking of methods by their Mean Unsigned Error is unsatisfactory for several reasons linked to the…
This thesis is concerned with investigations into the "complexity of term rewriting systems". Moreover the majority of the presented work deals with the "automation" of such a complexity analysis. The aim of this introduction is to present…
Total positivity of matrices is deeply studied and plays an important role in various branches of mathematics. The main purpose of this paper is to study total positivity of a matrix $M=[M_{n,k}]_{n,k}$ generated by the weighted lattice…
We introduce the framework of general probabilistic theories (GPTs for short). GPTs are a class of operational theories that generalize both finite-dimensional classical and quantum theory, but they also include other, more exotic theories,…
A profile likelihood ratio test is proposed for inferences on the index coefficients in generalized single-index models. Key features include its simplicity in implementation, invariance against parametrization, and exhibiting substantially…
When we speak about parametric programming, sensitivity analysis, or related topics, we usually mean the problem of studying specified perturbations of the data such that for a given optimization problem some optimality criterion remains…
This note proposes a method, which can be applied to searches and more in general to any cross section measurement, to maximize the analysis sensitivity.
Computing $p \rightarrow q$ norm for matrices is a classical problem in computational mathematics and power iteration is a well-known method for computing $p \rightarrow q $ norm for a matrix with nonnegative entries. Here we define an…
We define some pointwise properties of topological dynamical systems and give pointwise conditions for such a system possesses positive topological entropy. We give sufficient conditions to obtain positive topological entropy for maps which…
Linear polarimetric transformations of light polarization states by the action of material media are fully characterized by the corresponding Mueller matrices, which contain in an implicit and intricate manner all measurable information on…
Part of the theoretical motivation for improving the present level of testing of the equivalence principle is reviewed. The general rationale for optimizing the choice of pairs of materials to be tested is presented. One introduces a…
A formalism proposed to study transverse Lambda polarization in unpolarized hadronic processes, based on a generalized pQCD factorization theorem, is extended to semi-inclusive DIS. Analytical expressions and examples of numerical estimates…
A combinatorial property of prositive group presentations, called completeness, is introduced, with an effective criterion for recognizing complete presentations, and an iterative method for completing an incomplete presentation. We show…

We exhibit a lower-triangular matrix of polynomials $T(a,c,d,e,f,g)$ in six indeterminates that appears empirically to be coefficientwise totally positive, and which includes as a special case the Eulerian triangle. We prove the…
A brief introduction is given to the topic of Smith normal forms of incidence matrices. A general discussion of techniques is illustrated by some classical examples. Some recent advances are described and the limits of our current…
