A linear extension operator for Whitney fields on closed o-minimal sets

Wiesław Pawłucki (2008)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

A continuous linear extension operator, different from Whitney’s, for 𝒞 p -Whitney fields (p finite) on a closed o-minimal subset of n is constructed. The construction is based on special geometrical properties of o-minimal sets earlier studied by K. Kurdyka with the author.

A logic-based environment for developing natural language processing applications

Gérard Milhaud, Élisabeth Godbert (1998)

Mathématiques et Sciences Humaines

We present a system providing a set of tools for developing natural language processing (NLP) applications such as natural language interfaces, communication aid systems, etc. This system is based on two principles: modularity of knowledge representation to ensure the portability of the system, and guided sentence composition to ensure transparency, i.e. to ensure that the produced sentences are well-formed at the lexical, syntactic, semantic and conceptual levels. We first describe the formalisms...

A López-Escobar theorem for metric structures, and the topological Vaught conjecture

Samuel Coskey, Martino Lupini (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We show that a version of López-Escobar’s theorem holds in the setting of model theory for metric structures. More precisely, let denote the Urysohn sphere and let Mod(,) be the space of metric -structures supported on . Then for any Iso()-invariant Borel function f: Mod(,) → [0,1], there exists a sentence ϕ of ω ω such that for all M ∈ Mod(,) we have f ( M ) = ϕ M . This answers a question of Ivanov and Majcher-Iwanow. We prove several consequences, for example every orbit equivalence relation of a Polish group...
