Laslett’s transform for the Boolean model in d

Rostislav Černý (2006)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Consider a stationary Boolean model X with convex grains in d and let any exposed lower tangent point of X be shifted towards the hyperplane N 0 = { x d : x 1 = 0 } by the length of the part of the segment between the point and its projection onto the N 0 covered by X . The resulting point process in the halfspace (the Laslett’s transform of X ) is known to be stationary Poisson and of the same intensity as the original Boolean model. This result was first formulated for the planar Boolean model (see N. Cressie...

Generalised irredundance in graphs: Nordhaus-Gaddum bounds

Ernest J. Cockayne, Stephen Finbow (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For each vertex s of the vertex subset S of a simple graph G, we define Boolean variables p = p(s,S), q = q(s,S) and r = r(s,S) which measure existence of three kinds of S-private neighbours (S-pns) of s. A 3-variable Boolean function f = f(p,q,r) may be considered as a compound existence property of S-pns. The subset S is called an f-set of G if f = 1 for all s ∈ S and the class of f-sets of G is denoted by Ω f ( G ) . Only 64 Boolean functions f can produce different classes Ω f ( G ) , special cases...

FKN Theorem on the biased cube

Piotr Nayar (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider Boolean functions defined on the discrete cube - γ , γ - 1 equipped with a product probability measure μ n , where μ = β δ - γ + α δ γ - 1 and γ = √(α/β). This normalization ensures that the coordinate functions ( x i ) i = 1 , . . . , n are orthonormal in L ( - γ , γ - 1 , μ n ) . We prove that if the spectrum of a Boolean function is concentrated on the first two Fourier levels, then the function is close to a certain function of one variable. Our theorem strengthens the non-symmetric FKN Theorem due to Jendrej, Oleszkiewicz and Wojtaszczyk. Moreover,...

The rings which are Boolean

Ivan Chajda, Filip Švrček (2011)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Similarity:

We study unitary rings of characteristic 2 satisfying identity x p = x for some natural number p. We characterize several infinite families of these rings which are Boolean, i.e., every element is idempotent. For example, it is in the case if p = 2 n - 2 or p = 2 n - 5 or p = 2 n + 1 for a suitable natural number n. Some other (more general) cases are solved for p expressed in the form 2 q + 2 m + 1 or 2 q + 2 m where q is a natural number and m 1 , 2 , . . . , 2 q - 1 .

Coherent ultrafilters and nonhomogeneity

Jan Starý (2015)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

We introduce the notion of a coherent P -ultrafilter on a complete ccc Boolean algebra, strengthening the notion of a P -point on ω , and show that these ultrafilters exist generically under 𝔠 = 𝔡 . This improves the known existence result of Ketonen [On the existence of P -points in the Stone-Čech compactification of integers, Fund. Math. 92 (1976), 91–94]. Similarly, the existence theorem of Canjar [On the generic existence of special ultrafilters, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 110 (1990), no. 1,...

The lattice of subvarieties of the biregularization of the variety of Boolean algebras

Jerzy Płonka (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Similarity:

Let τ: F → N be a type of algebras, where F is a set of fundamental operation symbols and N is the set of all positive integers. An identity φ ≈ ψ is called biregular if it has the same variables in each of it sides and it has the same fundamental operation symbols in each of it sides. For a variety V of type τ we denote by V b the biregularization of V, i.e. the variety of type τ defined by all biregular identities from Id(V). Let B be the variety of Boolean algebras of type τ b : + , · , ´ N , where...

Cardinal sequences of length < ω₂ under GCH

István Juhász, Lajos Soukup, William Weiss (2006)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let (α) denote the class of all cardinal sequences of length α associated with compact scattered spaces (or equivalently, superatomic Boolean algebras). Also put λ ( α ) = s ( α ) : s ( 0 ) = λ = m i n [ s ( β ) : β < α ] . We show that f ∈ (α) iff for some natural number n there are infinite cardinals λ i > λ > . . . > λ n - 1 and ordinals α , . . . , α n - 1 such that α = α + + α n - 1 and f = f f . . . f n - 1 where each f i λ i ( α i ) . Under GCH we prove that if α < ω₂ then (i) ω ( α ) = s α ω , ω : s ( 0 ) = ω ; (ii) if λ > cf(λ) = ω, λ ( α ) = s α λ , λ : s ( 0 ) = λ , s - 1 λ i s ω - c l o s e d i n α ; (iii) if cf(λ) = ω₁, λ ( α ) = s α λ , λ : s ( 0 ) = λ , s - 1 λ i s ω - c l o s e d a n d s u c c e s s o r - c l o s e d i n α ; (iv) if cf(λ) > ω₁, λ ( α ) = α λ . This yields a complete characterization of the classes (α) for all...

Random ε-nets and embeddings in N

Y. Gordon, A. E. Litvak, A. Pajor, N. Tomczak-Jaegermann (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We show that, given an n-dimensional normed space X, a sequence of N = ( 8 / ε ) 2 n independent random vectors ( X i ) i = 1 N , uniformly distributed in the unit ball of X*, with high probability forms an ε-net for this unit ball. Thus the random linear map Γ : N defined by Γ x = ( x , X i ) i = 1 N embeds X in N with at most 1 + ε norm distortion. In the case X = ℓ₂ⁿ we obtain a random 1+ε-embedding into N with asymptotically best possible relation between N, n, and ε.

Limit theorems for geometric functionals of Gibbs point processes

T. Schreiber, J. E. Yukich (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

Observations are made on a point process 𝛯 in d in a window Q λ of volume λ . The observation, or ‘score’ at a point x , here denoted ξ ( x , 𝛯 ) , is a function of the points within a random distance of x . When the input 𝛯 is a Poisson or binomial point process, the large λ limit theory for the total score x 𝛯 Q λ ξ ( x , 𝛯 Q λ ) , when properly scaled and centered, is well understood. In this paper we establish general laws of large numbers, variance asymptotics, and central limit theorems for the total score for Gibbsian...

Stein’s method in high dimensions with applications

Adrian Röllin (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

Let h be a three times partially differentiable function on n , let X = ( X 1 , ... , X n ) be a collection of real-valued random variables and let Z = ( Z 1 , ... , Z n ) be a multivariate Gaussian vector. In this article, we develop Stein’s method to give error bounds on the difference 𝔼 h ( X ) - 𝔼 h ( Z ) in cases where the coordinates of X are not necessarily independent, focusing on the high dimensional case n . In order to express the dependency structure we use Stein couplings, which allows for a broad range of applications, such as classic...

Giant component and vacant set for random walk on a discrete torus

Itai Benjamini, Alain-Sol Sznitman (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider random walk on a discrete torus E of side-length N , in sufficiently high dimension d . We investigate the percolative properties of the vacant set corresponding to the collection of sites which have not been visited by the walk up to time u N d . We show that when u is chosen small, as N tends to infinity, there is with overwhelming probability a unique connected component in the vacant set which contains segments of length const log N . Moreover, this connected component occupies a...

The spread of a catalytic branching random walk

Philippe Carmona, Yueyun Hu (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider a catalytic branching random walk on that branches at the origin only. In the supercritical regime we establish a law of large number for the maximal position M n : For some constant α , M n n α almost surely on the set of infinite number of visits of the origin. Then we determine all possible limiting laws for M n - α n as n goes to infinity.

Asymptotic behavior of a stochastic combustion growth process

Alejandro Ramírez, Vladas Sidoravicius (2004)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study a continuous time growth process on the d -dimensional hypercubic lattice 𝒵 d , which admits a phenomenological interpretation as the combustion reaction A + B 2 A , where A represents heat particles and B inert particles. This process can be described as an interacting particle system in the following way: at time 0 a simple symmetric continuous time random walk of total jump rate one begins to move from the origin of the hypercubic lattice; then, as soon as any random walk visits a site...
