Unary-Determined Distributive ℓ -Magmas And Bunched Implication Algebras, Natanael Alpay, Peter Jipsen, Melissa Sugimoto

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

A distributive lattice-ordered magma (dℓ-magma) (A,∧,∨,⋅) is a distributive lattice with a binary operation ⋅ that preserves joins in both arguments, and when ⋅ is associative then (A,∨,⋅) is an idempotent semiring. A dℓ-magma with a top ⊤ is unary-determined if x⋅y=(x⋅⊤∧y)∨(x∧⊤⋅y). These algebras are term-equivalent to a subvariety of distributive lattices with ⊤ and two join-preserving unary operations p, q. We obtain simple conditions on p, q such that x⋅y=(px∧y)∨(x∧qy) is associative, commutative, idempotent and/or has an identity element. This generalizes previous results on the structure of doubly idempotent semirings and, in the case when the …

Algorithmic Correspondence For Relevance Logics, Bunched Implication Logics, And Relation Algebras Via An Implementation Of The Algorithm Pearl, Willem Conradie, Valentin Goranko, Peter Jipsen

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

The non-deterministic algorithmic procedure PEARL (acronym for ‘Propositional variables Elimination Algorithm for Relevance Logic’) has been recently developed for computing first-order equivalents of formulas of the language of relevance logics LR in terms of the standard Routley-Meyer relational semantics. It succeeds on a large class of axioms of relevance logics, including all so called inductive formulas. In the present work we re-interpret PEARL from an algebraic perspective, with its rewrite rules seen as manipulating quasi-inequalities interpreted over Urquhart’s relevant algebras, and report on its recent Python implementation. We also show that all formulae on which PEARL succeeds are canonical, i.e., …

Generalized Grassmann Algebras And Applications To Stochastic Processes, Daniel Alpay, Paula Cerejeiras, Uwe Kaehler

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

In this paper, we present the groundwork for an Itô/Malliavin stochastic calculus and Hida's white noise analysis in the context of a supersymmetry with Z₃-graded algebras. To this end, we establish a ternary Fock space and the corresponding strong algebra of stochastic distributions and present its application in the study of stochastic processes in this context.

On The Application Of Principal Component Analysis To Classification Problems, Jianwei Zheng, Cyril Rakovski

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is a commonly used technique that uses the correlation structure of the original variables to reduce the dimensionality of the data. This reduction is achieved by considering only the first few principal components for a subsequent analysis. The usual inclusion criterion is defined by the proportion of the total variance of the principal components exceeding a predetermined threshold. We show that in certain classification problems, even extremely high inclusion threshold can negatively impact the classification accuracy. The omission of small variance principal components can severely diminish the performance of the models. We noticed this phenomenon in …

Trilinear Smoothing Inequalities And A Variant Of The Triangular Hilbert Transform, Michael Christ, Polona Durcik, Joris Roos

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Lebesgue space inequalities are proved for a variant of the triangular Hilbert transform involving curvature. The analysis relies on a crucial trilinear smoothing inequality developed herein, and on bounds for an anisotropic variant of the twisted paraproduct.

The trilinear smoothing inequality also leads to Lebesgue space bounds for a corresponding maximal function and a quantitative nonlinear Roth-type theorem concerning patterns in the Euclidean plane.

On A Polyanalytic Approach To Noncommutative De Branges–Rovnyak Spaces And Schur Analysis, Daniel Alpay, Fabrizio Colombo, Kamal Diki, Irene Sabadini

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

In this paper we begin the study of Schur analysis and of de Branges–Rovnyak spaces in the framework of Fueter hyperholomorphic functions. The difference with other approaches is that we consider the class of functions spanned by Appell-like polynomials. This approach is very efficient from various points of view, for example in operator theory, and allows us to make connections with the recently developed theory of slice polyanalytic functions. We tackle a number of problems: we describe a Hardy space, Schur multipliers and related results. We also discuss Blaschke functions, Herglotz multipliers and their associated kernels and Hilbert spaces. Finally, …

A New Method To Generate Superoscillating Functions And Supershifts, Yakir Aharonov, Fabrizio Colombo, Irene Sabadini, Tomer Shushi, Daniele C. Struppa, Jeff Tollaksen

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Superoscillations are band-limited functions that can oscillate faster than their fastest Fourier component. These functions (or sequences) appear in weak values in quantum mechanics and in many fields of science and technology such as optics, signal processing and antenna theory. In this paper, we introduce a new method to generate superoscillatory functions that allows us to construct explicitly a very large class of superoscillatory functions.

Krein Reproducing Kernel Modules In Clifford Analysis, Daniel Alpay, Paula Cerejeiras, Uwe Kähler

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Classic hypercomplex analysis is intimately linked with elliptic operators, such as the Laplacian or the Dirac operator, and positive quadratic forms. But there are many applications like the crystallographic X-ray transform or the ultrahyperbolic Dirac operator which are closely connected with indefinite quadratic forms. Although appearing in many papers in such cases Hilbert modules are not the right choice as function spaces since they do not reflect the induced geometry. In this paper we are going to show that Clifford-Krein modules are naturally appearing in this context. Even taking into account the difficulties, e.g., the existence of different inner products …

Superoscillations And Analytic Extension In Schur Analysis, Daniel Alpay, Fabrizio Colombo, Irene Sabadini

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

We give applications of the theory of superoscillations to various questions, namely extension of positive definite functions, interpolation of polynomials and also of Rfunctions; we also discuss possible applications to signal theory and prediction theory of stationary stochastic processes. In all cases, we give a constructive procedure, by way of a limiting process, to get the required results.

Total Differentiability And Monogenicity For Functions In Algebras Of Order 4, I. Sabadini, Daniele C. Struppa

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

In this paper we discuss some notions of analyticity in associative algebras with unit. We also recall some basic tool in algebraic analysis and we use them to study the properties of analytic functions in two algebras of dimension four that played a relevant role in some work of the Italian school, but that have never been fully investigated.

Boxes, Extended Boxes And Sets Of Positive Upper Density In The Euclidean Space, Polona Durcik, Vjekoslav Kovač

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

We prove that sets with positive upper Banach density in sufficiently large dimensions contain congruent copies of all sufficiently large dilates of three specific higher-dimensional patterns. These patterns are: 2n vertices of a fixed n-dimensional rectangular box, the same vertices extended with n points completing three-term arithmetic progressions, and the same vertices extended with n points completing three-point corners. Our results provide common generalizations of several Euclidean density theorems from the literature.

Green's Function For The Schrodinger Equation With A Generalized Point Interaction And Stability Of Superoscillations, Yakir Aharonov, Jussi Behrndt, Fabrizio Colombo, Peter Schlosser

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

In this paper we study the time dependent Schrödinger equation with all possible self-adjoint singular interactions located at the origin, which include the δ and δ'-potentials as well as boundary conditions of Dirichlet, Neumann, and Robin type as particular cases. We derive an explicit representation of the time dependent Green's function and give a mathematical rigorous meaning to the corresponding integral for holomorphic initial conditions, using Fresnel integrals. Superoscillatory functions appear in the context of weak measurements in quantum mechanics and are naturally treated as holomorphic entire functions. As an application of the Green's function we study the stability …
