Around splitting and reaping

Jörg Brendle (1998)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove several results on some cardinal invariants of the continuum which are closely related to either the splitting number 𝔰 or its dual, the reaping number 𝔯 .

Around stable forking

Byunghan Kim, A. Pillay (2001)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We discuss various conjectures and problems around the issue of when and whether stable formulas are responsible for forking in simple theories. We prove that if the simple theory T has strong stable forking then any complete type is a nonforking extension of a complete type which is axiomatized by instances of stable formulas. We also give another treatment of the first author's result which identifies canonical bases in supersimple theories.

Associative n -dimensional copulas

Andrea Stupňanová, Anna Kolesárová (2011)

Kybernetika

The associativity of n -dimensional copulas in the sense of Post is studied. These copulas are shown to be just n -ary extensions of associative 2-dimensional copulas with special constraints, thus they solve an open problem of R. Mesiar posed during the International Conference FSTA 2010 in Liptovský Ján, Slovakia.

Asymmetric tie-points and almost clopen subsets of *

Alan S. Dow, Saharon Shelah (2018)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A tie-point of compact space is analogous to a cut-point: the complement of the point falls apart into two relatively clopen non-compact subsets. We review some of the many consistency results that have depended on the construction of tie-points of * . One especially important application, due to Veličković, was to the existence of nontrivial involutions on * . A tie-point of * has been called symmetric if it is the unique fixed point of an involution. We define the notion of an almost clopen set...

Asymptotic density, computable traceability, and 1-randomness

Uri Andrews, Mingzhong Cai, David Diamondstone, Carl Jockusch, Steffen Lempp (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Let r ∈ [0,1]. A set A ⊆ ω is said to be coarsely computable at density r if there is a computable function f such that {n | f(n) = A(n)} has lower density at least r. Our main results are that A is coarsely computable at density 1/2 if A is computably traceable or truth-table reducible to a 1-random set. In the other direction, we show that if a degree a is hyperimmune or PA, then there is an a-computable set which is not coarsely computable at any positive density.

Atomic compactness for reflexive graphs

Christian Delhommé (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A first order structure with universe M is atomic compact if every system of atomic formulas with parameters in M is satisfiable in provided each of its finite subsystems is. We consider atomic compactness for the class of reflexive (symmetric) graphs. In particular, we investigate the extent to which “sparse” graphs (i.e. graphs with “few” vertices of “high” degree) are compact with respect to systems of atomic formulas with “few” unknowns, on the one hand, and are pure restrictions of their...

Atomicity of lattice effect algebras and their sub-lattice effect algebras

Jan Paseka, Zdena Riečanová (2009)

Kybernetika

We show some families of lattice effect algebras (a common generalization of orthomodular lattices and MV-effect algebras) each element E of which has atomic center C(E) or the subset S(E) of all sharp elements, resp. the center of compatibility B(E) or every block M of E. The atomicity of E or its sub-lattice effect algebras C(E), S(E), B(E) and blocks M of E is very useful equipment for the investigations of its algebraic and topological properties, the existence or smearing of states on E, questions...

Automata, Borel functions and real numbers in Pisot base

Benoit Cagnard, Pierre Simonnet (2007)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

This note is about functions ƒ : Aω → Bω whose graph is recognized by a Büchi finite automaton on the product alphabet A x B. These functions are Baire class 2 in the Baire hierarchy of Borel functions and it is decidable whether such function are continuous or not. In 1920 W. Sierpinski showed that a function f : is Baire class 1 if and only if both the overgraph and the undergraph of f are Fσ. We show that such characterization is also true for functions on infinite words if we replace the real...

Automata-based representations for infinite graphs

Salvatore La Torre, Margherita Napoli (2001)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications - Informatique Théorique et Applications

New compact representations of infinite graphs are investigated. Finite automata are used to represent labelled hyper-graphs which can be also multi-graphs. Our approach consists of a general framework where vertices are represented by a regular prefix-free language and edges are represented by a regular language and a function over tuples. We consider three different functions over tuples: given a tuple the first function returns its first difference, the second one returns its suffix and the last...

Automatic detection of urban traffic incidents and supporting decision model for police dispatching based on travel time

Guangyu Zhu, Jingxuan Zhang, Haotian Lin, Peng Zhang (2016)

Kybernetika

It is very important to get the complete and timely information of urban road traffic incidents and then to make a reasonable strategy for police dispatching. By improving the efficiency of sending police, the loss of traffic incidents and the pressure of traffic police will be reduced greatly. An assistant decision model of police dispatching based on the information of automatic traffic incident detection is proposed in this paper. Firstly, an automatic traffic incident detection algorithm is...
