We study Tao's finitary viewpoint of convergence in metric spaces, as captured by the notion of metastability. We adopt the perspective of continuous model theory. We show that, in essence, metastable convergence with a given rate is the…
We prove that uniform metastability is equivalent to all closed subspaces being pseudocompact and use this to provide a topological proof of the metatheorem introduced by Caicedo, Duenez and Iovino on uniform metastability and countable…
Given a convergence theorem in analysis, under very general conditions a model-theoretic compactness argument implies that there is a uniform bound on the rate of metastability. We illustrate with three examples from ergodic theory.
The dominated convergence theorem implies that if (f_n) is a sequence of functions on a probability space taking values in the interval [0,1], and (f_n) converges pointwise a.e., then the sequence of integrals converges to the integral of…
Uniform metastable convergence is a weak form of uniform convergence for a family of sequences. In this paper we explore the way that metastable convergence stratifies into a family of notions indexed by countable ordinals. We give two…
We provide two proofs of the compactness theorem for extensions of first-order logic based on team semantics. First, we build upon L\"uck's ultraproduct construction for team semantics and prove a suitable version of {\L}o\'s' Theorem.…
We show that, contrary to the commonly held view, there is a natural and optimal compactness theorem for $\mathrm{L}_{\infty\infty}$ which generalizes the usual compactness theorem for first order logic. The key to this result is the switch…
The compactness theorem for a logic states, roughly, that the satisfiability of a set of well-formed formulas can be determined from the satisfiability of its finite subsets, and vice versa. Usually, proofs of this theorem depend on the…
Uniform proofs are sequent calculus proofs with the following characteristic: the last step in the derivation of a complex formula at any stage in the proof is always the introduction of the top-level logical symbol of that formula. We…
A uniformly continuously integrable sequence of real-valued measurable functions, defined on some probability space, is relatively compact in the $\sigma(L^1,L^\infty)$ topology. In this paper, we link such a result to weak convergence…
In this paper we introduce the concept of universal stabilizability: the condition that every solution of a nonlinear system can be globally stabilized. We give sufficient conditions in terms of the existence of a control contraction…
The paper analyzes dynamic epistemic logic from a topological perspective. The main contribution consists of a framework in which dynamic epistemic logic satisfies the requirements for being a topological dynamical system thus interfacing…
We characterize ultrafilter convergence and ultrafilter compactness in linearly ordered and generalized ordered topological spaces. In such spaces, and for every ultrafilter $D$, the notions of $D$-compactness and of $D$-pseudocompactness…
We use techniques of proof mining to extract computable and uniform rates of metastability (in the sense of Tao) for iterations of continuous functions on the unit interval, firstly (following earlier work of Gaspar) out of convergence…
Uniform interpolation is a strengthening of interpolation that holds for certain propositional logics. The starting point of this chapter is a theorem of A. Pitts, which shows that uniform interpolation holds for intuitionistic…
The Uniform Information Density (UID) hypothesis proposes that effective communication is achieved by maintaining a stable flow of information. In this work, we revisit this principle in the context of Large Language Model (LLM) reasoning,…
In \cite{Craig}, we introduced a syntactically defined and highly general class of calculi known as \emph{semi-analytic}. We then demonstrated that any sufficiently strong (modal) substructural logic with a semi-analytic calculus must…
We define a notion of entropy for an infinite family $\mathcal{C}$ of measurable sets in a probability space. We show that the mean ergodic theorem holds uniformly for $\mathcal{C}$ under every ergodic transformation if and only if…
We introduce and develop a topological semantics of conservativity logics and interpretability logics. We prove the topological compactness theorem of consistent normal extensions of the conservativity logic $\mathbf{CL}$ by extending…
In this article we use techniques of proof mining to analyse a result, due to Yonghong Yao and Muhammad Aslam Noor, concerning the strong convergence of a generalized proximal point algorithm which involves multiple parameters. Yao and…
