https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point%20combinator
In mathematics and computer science in general, a fixed point of a function is a value that is mapped to itself by the function. In combinatory logic for computer science, a fixed-point combinator (or fixpoint combinator) is a higher-order function that returns some fixed point of its argument function, if one exists. Formally, if the function f has one or more fixed points, then and hence, by repeated application, Y combinator In the classical untyped lambda calculus, every function has a fixed point. A particular implementation of fix is Curry's paradoxical combinator Y, represented by In functional programming, the Y combinator can be used to formally define recursive functions in a programming language that does not support recursion. This combinator may be used in implementing Curry's paradox. The heart of Curry's paradox is that untyped lambda calculus is unsound as a deductive system, and the Y combinator demonstrates this by allowing an anonymous expression to represent zero, or even many values. This is inconsistent in mathematical logic. Applied to a function with one variable, the Y combinator usually does not terminate. More interesting results are obtained by applying the Y combinator to functions of two or more variables. The additional variables may be used as a counter, or index. The resulting function behaves like a while or a for loop in an imperative language. Used in this way, the Y combinator implements simple recursion. In the lambda calculus, it is not possible to refer to the definition of a function inside its own body by name. Recursion though may be achieved by obtaining the same function passed in as an argument, and then using that argument to make the recursive call, instead of using the function's own name, as is done in languages which do support recursion natively. The Y combinator demonstrates this style of programming. An example implementation of Y combinator in two languages is presented below. # Y Combinator in Python Y=lambda f: (lambda x: f(x(x)))(lambda x: f(x(x))) Y(Y) // Y Combinator in C++ int main() { auto Y = [](auto f) { auto f1 = [f](auto x) -> decltype(f) { // A print statement may be inserted here, // to observe that we get an infinite loop // (at least until the stack overflows) return f(x(x)); }; return f1(f1); }; Y(Y); } Fixed-point combinator The Y combinator is an implementation of a fixed-point combinator in lambda calculus. Fixed-point combinators may also be easily defined in other functional and imperative languages. The implementation in lambda calculus is more difficult due to limitations in lambda calculus. The fixed-point combinator may be used in a number of different areas: General mathematics Untyped lambda calculus Typed lambda calculus Functional programming Imperative programming Fixed-point combinators may be applied to a range of different functions, but n
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal%20class%20group
In number theory, the ideal class group (or class group) of an algebraic number field is the quotient group where is the group of fractional ideals of the ring of integers of , and is its subgroup of principal ideals. The class group is a measure of the extent to which unique factorization fails in the ring of integers of . The order of the group, which is finite, is called the class number of . The theory extends to Dedekind domains and their fields of fractions, for which the multiplicative properties are intimately tied to the structure of the class group. For example, the class group of a Dedekind domain is trivial if and only if the ring is a unique factorization domain. History and origin of the ideal class group Ideal class groups (or, rather, what were effectively ideal class groups) were studied some time before the idea of an ideal was formulated. These groups appeared in the theory of quadratic forms: in the case of binary integral quadratic forms, as put into something like a final form by Carl Friedrich Gauss, a composition law was defined on certain equivalence classes of forms. This gave a finite abelian group, as was recognised at the time. Later Ernst Kummer was working towards a theory of cyclotomic fields. It had been realised (probably by several people) that failure to complete proofs in the general case of Fermat's Last Theorem by factorisation using the roots of unity was for a very good reason: a failure of unique factorization – i.e., the fundamental theorem of arithmetic – to hold in the rings generated by those roots of unity was a major obstacle. Out of Kummer's work for the first time came a study of the obstruction to the factorisation. We now recognise this as part of the ideal class group: in fact Kummer had isolated the p-torsion in that group for the field of p-roots of unity, for any prime number p, as the reason for the failure of the standard method of attack on the Fermat problem (see regular prime). Somewhat later again Richard Dedekind formulated the concept of an ideal, Kummer having worked in a different way. At this point the existing examples could be unified. It was shown that while rings of algebraic integers do not always have unique factorization into primes (because they need not be principal ideal domains), they do have the property that every proper ideal admits a unique factorization as a product of prime ideals (that is, every ring of algebraic integers is a Dedekind domain). The size of the ideal class group can be considered as a measure for the deviation of a ring from being a principal ideal domain; a ring is a principal ideal domain if and only if it has a trivial ideal class group. Definition If R is an integral domain, define a relation ~ on nonzero fractional ideals of R by I ~ J whenever there exist nonzero elements a and b of R such that (a)I = (b)J. (Here the notation (a) means the principal ideal of R consisting of all the multiples of a.) It is easily shown that this
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toeplitz%20matrix
In linear algebra, a Toeplitz matrix or diagonal-constant matrix, named after Otto Toeplitz, is a matrix in which each descending diagonal from left to right is constant. For instance, the following matrix is a Toeplitz matrix: Any matrix of the form is a Toeplitz matrix. If the element of is denoted then we have A Toeplitz matrix is not necessarily square. Solving a Toeplitz system A matrix equation of the form is called a Toeplitz system if is a Toeplitz matrix. If is an Toeplitz matrix, then the system has at-most only unique values, rather than . We might therefore expect that the solution of a Toeplitz system would be easier, and indeed that is the case. Toeplitz systems can be solved by the Levinson algorithm in time. Variants of this algorithm have been shown to be weakly stable (i.e. they exhibit numerical stability for well-conditioned linear systems). The algorithm can also be used to find the determinant of a Toeplitz matrix in time. A Toeplitz matrix can also be decomposed (i.e. factored) in time. The Bareiss algorithm for an LU decomposition is stable. An LU decomposition gives a quick method for solving a Toeplitz system, and also for computing the determinant. Algorithms that are asymptotically faster than those of Bareiss and Levinson have been described in the literature, but their accuracy cannot be relied upon. General properties An Toeplitz matrix may be defined as a matrix where , for constants . The set of Toeplitz matrices is a subspace of the vector space of matrices (under matrix addition and scalar multiplication). Two Toeplitz matrices may be added in time (by storing only one value of each diagonal) and multiplied in time. Toeplitz matrices are persymmetric. Symmetric Toeplitz matrices are both centrosymmetric and bisymmetric. Toeplitz matrices are also closely connected with Fourier series, because the multiplication operator by a trigonometric polynomial, compressed to a finite-dimensional space, can be represented by such a matrix. Similarly, one can represent linear convolution as multiplication by a Toeplitz matrix. Toeplitz matrices commute asymptotically. This means they diagonalize in the same basis when the row and column dimension tends to infinity. For symmetric Toeplitz matrices, there is the decomposition where is the lower triangular part of . The inverse of a nonsingular symmetric Toeplitz matrix has the representation where and are lower triangular Toeplitz matrices and is a strictly lower triangular matrix. Discrete convolution The convolution operation can be constructed as a matrix multiplication, where one of the inputs is converted into a Toeplitz matrix. For example, the convolution of and can be formulated as: This approach can be extended to compute autocorrelation, cross-correlation, moving average etc. Infinite Toeplitz matrix A bi-infinite Toeplitz matrix (i.e. entries indexed by ) induces a linear operator on . The induced operator

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunocet
The Lunocet is a biomimetic monofin intended to reduce drag and augment human swimming ability underwater. It is modeled after a dolphin's tail, by replicating the geometry, scale, and morphology dynamics of what the manufacturer calls the "lunate tail propulsor," as the shape is similar to a crescent moon. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the manufacturer stopped producing the Lunocet due to supply issues. Description The Lunocet is a 5.3 lb (2.4 kg) monofin designed/invented by Ted Ciamillo. It is built from aluminum and rubber with a span of 30 inches. It is attached to a diver using road cycling or triathlon shoes screwed to an aluminum plate oriented at a 30-degree angle to the resting plane of the flukes, to compensate for the angle of the ankle when extended. Features The manufacturer claims an advantage over traditional fins because of its hydrodynamic shape. It has a high aspect ratio and large surface area, which can propel an experienced diver to a maximum speed of eight mph (13 km/h). That later claimed result is exactly the world record for 50 m apnea with traditional monofin. A spring-loaded mechanism adjusts the angle of attack of the flukes using the water pressure from swimming. The rubber spring can be set on three tension settings from flexible for slow relatively efficient swimming to more rigid for sprinting. A cambered foil can be more efficient than a symmetrical foil, but a rigid cambered foil is efficient for producing lift in just one direction. The Lunocet uses the water pressure to induce camber in the flexible flukes which are symmetric at rest. The camber is dynamic and changes sides with up and down stroke. The flexibility is mostly at the tips and trailing edge. Road cycling or triathlon shoes are used to attach the fin to the diver. Power transfer is through the rigid soles into the peduncle (the part which transitions the feet to the flukes). All road cycling and triathlon shoes have a standard bolt-hole pattern which mates with the bolt-hole pattern on the foot deck and can be attached using six stainless steel screws.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardy%E2%80%93Littlewood%20zeta-function%20conjectures
In mathematics, the Hardy–Littlewood zeta-function conjectures, named after Godfrey Harold Hardy and John Edensor Littlewood, are two conjectures concerning the distances between zeros and the density of zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Conjectures In 1914, Godfrey Harold Hardy proved that the Riemann zeta function has infinitely many real zeros. Let be the total number of real zeros, be the total number of zeros of odd order of the function , lying on the interval . Hardy and Littlewood claimed two conjectures. These conjectures – on the distance between real zeros of and on the density of zeros of on intervals for sufficiently great , and with as less as possible value of , where is an arbitrarily small number – open two new directions in the investigation of the Riemann zeta function. 1. For any there exists such that for and the interval contains a zero of odd order of the function . 2. For any there exist and , such that for and the inequality is true. Status In 1942, Atle Selberg studied the problem 2 and proved that for any there exists such and , such that for and the inequality is true. In his turn, Selberg made his conjecture that it's possible to decrease the value of the exponent for which was proved 42 years later by A.A. Karatsuba. References Conjectures Zeta and L-functions
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granville%20number
In mathematics, specifically number theory, Granville numbers, also known as -perfect numbers, are an extension of the perfect numbers. The Granville set In 1996, Andrew Granville proposed the following construction of a set : Let , and for any integer larger than 1, let if A Granville number is an element of for which equality holds, that is, is a Granville number if it is equal to the sum of its proper divisors that are also in . Granville numbers are also called -perfect numbers. General properties The elements of can be -deficient, -perfect, or -abundant. In particular, 2-perfect numbers are a proper subset of . S-deficient numbers Numbers that fulfill the strict form of the inequality in the above definition are known as -deficient numbers. That is, the -deficient numbers are the natural numbers for which the sum of their divisors in is strictly less than themselves: S-perfect numbers Numbers that fulfill equality in the above definition are known as -perfect numbers. That is, the -perfect numbers are the natural numbers that are equal the sum of their divisors in . The first few -perfect numbers are: 6, 24, 28, 96, 126, 224, 384, 496, 1536, 1792, 6144, 8128, 14336, ... Every perfect number is also -perfect. However, there are numbers such as 24 which are -perfect but not perfect. The only known -perfect number with three distinct prime factors is 126 = 2 · 32 · 7. S-abundant numbers Numbers that violate the inequality in the above definition are known as -abundant numbers. That is, the -abundant numbers are the natural numbers for which the sum of their divisors in is strictly greater than themselves: They belong to the complement of . The first few -abundant numbers are: 12, 18, 20, 30, 42, 48, 56, 66, 70, 72, 78, 80, 84, 88, 90, 102, 104, ... Examples Every deficient number and every perfect number is in because the restriction of the divisors sum to members of either decreases the divisors sum or leaves it unchanged. The first natural number that is not in is the smallest abundant number, which is 12. The next two abundant numbers, 18 and 20, are also not in . However, the fourth abundant number, 24, is in because the sum of its proper divisors in is: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 = 24 In other words, 24 is abundant but not -abundant because 12 is not in . In fact, 24 is -perfect - it is the smallest number that is -perfect but not perfect. The smallest odd abundant number that is in is 2835, and the smallest pair of consecutive numbers that are not in are 5984 and 5985. References Number theory

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability%20box
A probability box (or p-box) is a characterization of uncertain numbers consisting of both aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties that is often used in risk analysis or quantitative uncertainty modeling where numerical calculations must be performed. Probability bounds analysis is used to make arithmetic and logical calculations with p-boxes. An example p-box is shown in the figure at right for an uncertain number x consisting of a left (upper) bound and a right (lower) bound on the probability distribution for x. The bounds are coincident for values of x below 0 and above 24. The bounds may have almost any shape, including step functions, so long as they are monotonically increasing and do not cross each other. A p-box is used to express simultaneously incertitude (epistemic uncertainty), which is represented by the breadth between the left and right edges of the p-box, and variability (aleatory uncertainty), which is represented by the overall slant of the p-box. Interpretation There are dual interpretations of a p-box. It can be understood as bounds on the cumulative probability associated with any x-value. For instance, in the p-box depicted at right, the probability that the value will be 2.5 or less is between 4% and 36%. A p-box can also be understood as bounds on the x-value at any particular probability level. In the example, the 95th percentile is sure to be between 9 and 16. If the left and right bounds of a p-box are sure to enclose the unknown distribution, the bounds are said to be rigorous, or absolute. The bounds may also be the tightest possible such bounds on the distribution function given the available information about it, in which case the bounds are therefore said to be best-possible. It may commonly be the case, however, that not every distribution that lies within these bounds is a possible distribution for the uncertain number, even when the bounds are rigorous and best-possible. Mathematical definition P-boxes are specified by left and right bounds on the distribution function (or, equivalently, the survival function) of a quantity and, optionally, additional information constraining the quantity's mean and variance to specified intervals, and specified constraints on its distributional shape (family, unimodality, symmetry, etc.). A p-box represents a class of probability distributions consistent with these constraints. A distribution function on the real numbers , is a function for which whenever , and the limit of at +∞ is 1 and the limit at −∞ is 0. A p-box is a set of distributions functions F satisfying the following constraints, for specified distribution functions F, and specified bounds m1 ≤ m2 on the expected value of the distribution and specified bounds v1 ≤ v2 on the variance of the distribution. where integrals of the form are Riemann–Stieltjes integrals. Thus, the constraints are that the distribution function F falls within prescribed bounds, the mean of the distribution is in th
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Credal%20set
In mathematics, a credal set is a set of probability distributions or, more generally, a set of (possibly only finitely additive) probability measures. A credal set is often assumed or constructed to be a closed convex set. It is intended to express uncertainty or doubt about the probability model that should be used, or to convey the beliefs of a Bayesian agent about the possible states of the world. If a credal set is closed and convex, then, by the Krein–Milman theorem, it can be equivalently described by its extreme points . In that case, the expectation for a function of with respect to the credal set forms a closed interval , whose lower bound is called the lower prevision of , and whose upper bound is called the upper prevision of : where denotes a probability measure, and with a similar expression for (just replace by in the above expression). If is a categorical variable, then the credal set can be considered as a set of probability mass functions over . If additionally is also closed and convex, then the lower prevision of a function of can be simply evaluated as: where denotes a probability mass function. It is easy to see that a credal set over a Boolean variable cannot have more than two extreme points (because the only closed convex sets in are closed intervals), while credal sets over variables that can take three or more values can have any arbitrary number of extreme points.

In mathematics, specifically functional analysis, the barrier cone is a cone associated to any non-empty subset of a Banach space. It is closely related to the notions of support functions and polar sets. Definition Let X be a Banach space and let K be a non-empty subset of X. The barrier cone of K is the subset b(K) of X∗, the continuous dual space of X, defined by Related notions The function defined for each continuous linear functional ℓ on X, is known as the support function of the set K; thus, the barrier cone of K is precisely the set of continuous linear functionals ℓ for which σK(ℓ) is finite. The set of continuous linear functionals ℓ for which σK(ℓ) ≤ 1 is known as the polar set of K. The set of continuous linear functionals ℓ for which σK(ℓ) ≤ 0 is known as the (negative) polar cone of K. Clearly, both the polar set and the negative polar cone are subsets of the barrier cone.

In mathematics, the Bockstein spectral sequence is a spectral sequence relating the homology with mod p coefficients and the homology reduced mod p. It is named after Meyer Bockstein. Definition Let C be a chain complex of torsion-free abelian groups and p a prime number. Then we have the exact sequence: Taking integral homology H, we get the exact couple of "doubly graded" abelian groups: where the grading goes: and the same for This gives the first page of the spectral sequence: we take with the differential .

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James%20reduced%20product
In topology, a branch of mathematics, the James reduced product or James construction J(X) of a topological space X with given basepoint e is the quotient of the disjoint union of all powers X, X2, X3, ... obtained by identifying points (x1,...,xk−1,e,xk+1,...,xn) with (x1,...,xk−1, xk+1,...,xn). In other words, its underlying set is the free monoid generated by X (with unit e). It was introduced by . For a connected CW complex X, the James reduced product J(X) has the same homotopy type as ΩΣX, the loop space of the suspension of X. The commutative analogue of the James reduced product is called the infinite symmetric product. References Algebraic topology
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dold%E2%80%93Thom%20theorem
In algebraic topology, the Dold-Thom theorem states that the homotopy groups of the infinite symmetric product of a connected CW complex are the same as its reduced homology groups. The most common version of its proof consists of showing that the composition of the homotopy group functors with the infinite symmetric product defines a reduced homology theory. One of the main tools used in doing so are quasifibrations. The theorem has been generalised in various ways, for example by the Almgren isomorphism theorem. There are several other theorems constituting relations between homotopy and homology, for example the Hurewicz theorem. Another approach is given by stable homotopy theory. Thanks to the Freudenthal suspension theorem, one can see that the latter actually defines a homology theory. Nevertheless, none of these allow one to directly reduce homology to homotopy. This advantage of the Dold-Thom theorem makes it particularly interesting for algebraic geometry. The theorem Dold-Thom theorem. For a connected CW complex X one has πnSP(X) ≅ H̃n(X), where H̃n denotes reduced homology and SP stands for the infinite symmetric product. It is also very useful that there exists an isomorphism φ : πnSP(X) → H̃n(X) which is compatible with the Hurewicz homomorphism h: πn(X) → H̃n(X), meaning that one has a commutative diagram where i* is the map induced by the inclusion i: X = SP1(X) → SP(X). The following example illustrates that the requirement of X being a CW complex cannot be dropped offhand: Let X = CH ∨ CH be the wedge sum of two copies of the cone over the Hawaiian earring. The common point of the two copies is supposed to be the point 0 ∈ H meeting every circle. On the one hand, H1(X) is an infinite group while H1(CH) is trivial. On the other hand, π1(SP(X)) ≅ π1(SP(CH)) × π1(SP(CH)) holds since φ : SP(X) × SP(Y) → SP(X ∨ Y) defined by φ([x1, ..., xn], [y1, ..., yn]) = ([x1, ..., xn, y1, ..., yn]) is a homeomorphism for compact X and Y. But this implies that either π1(SP(CH)) ≅ H1(CH) or π1(SP(X)) ≅ H1(X) does not hold. Sketch of the proof One wants to show that the family of functors hn = πn ∘ SP defines a homology theory. Dold and Thom chose in their initial proof a slight modification of the Eilenberg-Steenrod axioms, namely calling a family of functors (h̃n)n∈N0 from the category of basepointed, connected CW complexes to the category of abelian groups a reduced homology theory if they satisfy If f ≃ g: X → Y, then f* = g*: h̃n(X) → h̃n(Y), where ≃ denotes pointed homotopy equivalence. There are natural boundary homomorphisms ∂ : h̃n(X/A) → h̃n−1(A) for each pair (X, A) with X and A being connected, yielding an exact sequence where i: A → X is the inclusion and q: X → X/A is the quotient map. h̃n(S1) = 0 for n ≠ 1, where S1 denotes the circle. Let (Xλ) be the system of compact subspaces of a pointed space X containing the basepoint. Then (Xλ) is a direct system together with the inclusions. Denote by respectively the inclu

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric%20product%20%28topology%29
In algebraic topology, the nth symmetric product of a topological space consists of the unordered n-tuples of its elements. If one fixes a basepoint, there is a canonical way of embedding the lower-dimensional symmetric products into the higher-dimensional ones. That way, one can consider the colimit over the symmetric products, the infinite symmetric product. This construction can easily be extended to give a homotopy functor. From an algebraic point of view, the infinite symmetric product is the free commutative monoid generated by the space minus the basepoint, the basepoint yielding the identity element. That way, one can view it as the abelian version of the James reduced product. One of its essential applications is the Dold-Thom theorem, stating that the homotopy groups of the infinite symmetric product of a connected CW complex are the same as the reduced homology groups of that complex. That way, one can give a homotopical definition of homology. Definition Let X be a topological space and n ≥ 1 a natural number. Define the nth symmetric product of X or the n-fold symmetric product of X as the space Here, the symmetric group Sn acts on Xn by permuting the factors. Hence, the elements of SPn(X) are the unordered n-tuples of elements of X. Write [x1, ..., xn] for the point in SPn(X) defined by (x1, ..., xn) ∈ Xn. Note that one can define the nth symmetric product in any category where products and colimits exist. Namely, one then has canonical isomorphisms φ : X × Y → Y × X for any objects X and Y and can define the action of the transposition on Xn as , thereby inducing an action of the whole Sn on Xn. This means that one can consider symmetric products of objects like simplicial sets as well. Moreover, if the category is cartesian closed, the distributive law X × (Y ∐ Z) ≅ X × Y ∐ X × Z holds and therefore one gets If (X, e) is a based space, it is common to set SP0(X) = {e}. Further, Xn can then be embedded into Xn+1 by sending (x1, ..., xn) to (x1, ..., xn, e). This clearly induces an embedding of SPn(X) into SPn+1(X). Therefore, the infinite symmetric product can be defined as A definition avoiding category theoretic notions can be given by taking SP(X) to be the union of the increasing sequence of spaces SPn(X) equipped with the direct limit topology. This means that a subset of SP(X) is open if and only if all its intersections with the SPn(X) are open. We define the basepoint of SP(X) as [e]. That way, SP(X) becomes a based space as well. One can generalise this definition as well to pointed categories where products and colimits exist. Namely, in this case one has a canonical map Xn → Xn+1, induced by the identity Xn → Xn and the zero map Xn → X. So this results in a direct system of the symmetric products, too and one can therefore define its colimit as the infinite symmetric product. Examples SPn(I) is the same as the n-dimensional standard simplex Δn, where I denotes the unit interval. SPn(S1) can be identifie

When he started primary school at the age of four, he was described as having the mathematical ability of a typical twelve-year-old. While attending school Asley passed the A-level exams and became the youngest person to have achieved the 'A' grade in Mathematics at the age of 8 in 2011, surpassing a record previously held by March Tian Boedihardjo. For three years prior to starting his university education his full-time schooling was split, three days a week at primary school and two days a week he learned mathematics with Professor Alexander Gorban at the University of Leicester. Although he had met UK university entrance requirements by scoring top grades and was in a position to apply to UK universities, he wanted to continue in the standard education system. In an ITV interview, on 24 July 2018, Yasha said, "... It wasn't our first choice [to go to university]. But then it seemed like the headteacher had told my teachers to slow me down... So we decided that I really had no choice [other than to go to university]." He began his university course at the age of twelve.

According to the Office for National Statistics, sole proprietors represented 23.8% of all UK enterprise in 2010. Of that number, more than half a million sole traders were operating via the PAYE or VAT system alone. Sole traders are a distinct legal entity, operating as one type of UK business structure. In the event of financial problems affecting the business, they are subject to different rules to those that govern companies. Sole trader insolvency occurs when the business cannot meet financial obligations. It may be that bills cannot be paid on time, leading to debts which eventually attract legal action by creditors. Insolvency does not automatically equate to bankruptcy; definitions of insolvency are provided within the Insolvency Act 1986. Cash flow insolvency occurs when a business cannot meet its credit obligations as they fall due. Balance sheet insolvency occurs when the businesses’ liabilities exceed its assets. According to Business Link there are a number of factors that can lead to sole trader insolvency. These can include late invoicing for goods or services, accepting orders that exceed its financial capacity to deliver, failure to recover debts, excess inventory and unsuitable credit arrangements and often personal drawings taken in excess of profit. UK Insolvency statistics During 2010, the recorded number of individual insolvencies in England and Wales was 135,089 according to the UK Government’s Insolvency Service (including provisional figures from the final quarter). The figures had fallen by 13.6% during the final quarter compared to the same quarter during 2009. 12,049 individuals declared formal bankruptcy, a drop of almost a third (29.2%) on the previous year. 12,058 entered formal Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs), representing an annual drop of 5.4%. A further 6,172 entered a formal Debt Relief Order (DRO), an increase of 15.4% on the previous year’s figures. The levels of self-employed bankruptcies had fallen slightly by the third quarter of 2010 to make up 11.9% of the total within England and Wales. This represented an improvement on the number of bankrupt sole traders during the previous year and up to June 2010. UK Insolvency Law and sole traders Insolvency Act 1986 This legislation provides the legal framework for two key formal insolvency solutions relevant to sole traders: namely bankruptcy and Individual Voluntary Arrangements. It also makes provision for company insolvency Bankruptcy laws vary somewhat between Scotland, Northern Ireland, Wales and England. In England, Wales & Northern Ireland, the applicable law is the Insolvency Act 1986. Bankruptcy requires the surrender of all valuable assets to the Official Receiver, including any property interests. It is extremely unlikely the business activities would be permitted to continue. Additionally, there are quite a number of other legal restrictions upon the bankrupt individual. Individuals are therefore cautioned by the Insolvency Servi

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posetal%20category
In mathematics, specifically category theory, a posetal category, or thin category, is a category whose homsets each contain at most one morphism. As such, a posetal category amounts to a preordered class (or a preordered set, if its objects form a set). As suggested by the name, the further requirement that the category be skeletal is often assumed for the definition of "posetal"; in the case of a category that is posetal, being skeletal is equivalent to the requirement that the only isomorphisms are the identity morphisms, equivalently that the preordered class satisfies antisymmetry and hence, if a set, is a poset. All diagrams commute in a posetal category. When the commutative diagrams of a category are interpreted as a typed equational theory whose objects are the types, a codiscrete posetal category corresponds to an inconsistent theory understood as one satisfying the axiom x = y at all types. Viewing a 2-category as an enriched category whose hom-objects are categories, the hom-objects of any extension of a posetal category to a 2-category having the same 1-cells are monoids. Some lattice-theoretic structures are definable as posetal categories of a certain kind, usually with the stronger assumption of being skeletal. For example, under this assumption, a poset may be defined as a small posetal category, a distributive lattice as a small posetal distributive category, a Heyting algebra as a small posetal finitely cocomplete cartesian closed category, and a Boolean algebra as a small posetal finitely cocomplete *-autonomous category. Conversely, categories, distributive categories, finitely cocomplete cartesian closed categories, and finitely cocomplete *-autonomous categories can be considered the respective categorifications of posets, distributive lattices, Heyting algebras, and Boolean algebras.

In mathematics, the Beltrami equation, named after Eugenio Beltrami, is the partial differential equation for w a complex distribution of the complex variable z in some open set U, with derivatives that are locally L2, and where μ is a given complex function in L∞(U) of norm less than 1, called the Beltrami coefficient, and where and are Wirtinger derivatives. Classically this differential equation was used by Gauss to prove the existence locally of isothermal coordinates on a surface with analytic Riemannian metric. Various techniques have been developed for solving the equation. The most powerful, developed in the 1950s, provides global solutions of the equation on C and relies on the Lp theory of the Beurling transform, a singular integral operator defined on Lp(C) for all 1 < p < ∞. The same method applies equally well on the unit disk and upper half plane and plays a fundamental role in Teichmüller theory and the theory of quasiconformal mappings. Various uniformization theorems can be proved using the equation, including the measurable Riemann mapping theorem and the simultaneous uniformization theorem. The existence of conformal weldings can also be derived using the Beltrami equation. One of the simplest applications is to the Riemann mapping theorem for simply connected bounded open domains in the complex plane. When the domain has smooth boundary, elliptic regularity for the equation can be used to show that the uniformizing map from the unit disk to the domain extends to a C∞ function from the closed disk to the closure of the domain. Metrics on planar domains Consider a 2-dimensional Riemannian manifold, say with an (x, y) coordinate system on it. The curves of constant x on that surface typically don't intersect the curves of constant y orthogonally. A new coordinate system (u, v) is called isothermal when the curves of constant u do intersect the curves of constant v orthogonally and, in addition, the parameter spacing is the same — that is, for small enough h, the little region with and is nearly square, not just nearly rectangular. The Beltrami equation is the equation that has to be solved in order to construct isothermal coordinate systems. To see how this works, let S be an open set in C and let be a smooth metric g on S. The first fundamental form of g is a positive real matrix (E > 0, G > 0, EG − F2 > 0) that varies smoothly with x and y. The Beltrami coefficient of the metric g is defined to be This coefficient has modulus strictly less than one since the identity implies that Let f(x,y) =(u(x,y),v(x,y)) be a smooth diffeomorphism of S onto another open set T in C. The map f preserves orientation just when its Jacobian is positive: And using f to pull back to S the standard Euclidean metric ds2 = du2 + dv2 on T induces a metric on S given by a metric whose first fundamental form is When f both preserves orientation and induces a metric that differs from the original metric g only by a positive, smoothl
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean%20absolute%20scaled%20error
In statistics, the mean absolute scaled error (MASE) is a measure of the accuracy of forecasts. It is the mean absolute error of the forecast values, divided by the mean absolute error of the in-sample one-step naive forecast. It was proposed in 2005 by statistician Rob J. Hyndman and Professor of Decision Sciences Anne B. Koehler, who described it as a "generally applicable measurement of forecast accuracy without the problems seen in the other measurements." The mean absolute scaled error has favorable properties when compared to other methods for calculating forecast errors, such as root-mean-square-deviation, and is therefore recommended for determining comparative accuracy of forecasts. Rationale The mean absolute scaled error has the following desirable properties: Scale invariance: The mean absolute scaled error is independent of the scale of the data, so can be used to compare forecasts across data sets with different scales. Predictable behavior as : Percentage forecast accuracy measures such as the Mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) rely on division of , skewing the distribution of the MAPE for values of near or equal to 0. This is especially problematic for data sets whose scales do not have a meaningful 0, such as temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit, and for intermittent demand data sets, where occurs frequently. Symmetry: The mean absolute scaled error penalizes positive and negative forecast errors equally, and penalizes errors in large forecasts and small forecasts equally. In contrast, the MAPE and median absolute percentage error (MdAPE) fail both of these criteria, while the "symmetric" sMAPE and sMdAPE fail the second criterion. Interpretability: The mean absolute scaled error can be easily interpreted, as values greater than one indicate that in-sample one-step forecasts from the naïve method perform better than the forecast values under consideration. Asymptotic normality of the MASE: The Diebold-Mariano test for one-step forecasts is used to test the statistical significance of the difference between two sets of forecasts. To perform hypothesis testing with the Diebold-Mariano test statistic, it is desirable for , where is the value of the test statistic. The DM statistic for the MASE has been empirically shown to approximate this distribution, while the mean relative absolute error (MRAE), MAPE and sMAPE do not. Non seasonal time series For a non-seasonal time series, the mean absolute scaled error is estimated by where the numerator ej is the forecast error for a given period (with J, the number of forecasts), defined as the actual value (Yj) minus the forecast value (Fj) for that period: ej = Yj − Fj, and the denominator is the mean absolute error of the one-step "naive forecast method" on the training set (here defined as t = 1..T), which uses the actual value from the prior period as the forecast: Ft = Yt−1 Seasonal time series For a seasonal time series, the mean absolute scaled error is estimate
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inflation-restriction%20exact%20sequence
In mathematics, the inflation-restriction exact sequence is an exact sequence occurring in group cohomology and is a special case of the five-term exact sequence arising from the study of spectral sequences. Specifically, let G be a group, N a normal subgroup, and A an abelian group which is equipped with an action of G, i.e., a homomorphism from G to the automorphism group of A. The quotient group G/N acts on AN = { a ∈ A : na = a for all n ∈ N}. Then the inflation-restriction exact sequence is: 0 → H 1(G/N, AN) → H 1(G, A) → H 1(N, A)G/N → H 2(G/N, AN) →H 2(G, A) In this sequence, there are maps inflation H 1(G/N, AN) → H 1(G, A) restriction H 1(G, A) → H 1(N, A)G/N transgression H 1(N, A)G/N → H 2(G/N, AN) inflation H 2(G/N, AN) →H 2(G, A) The inflation and restriction are defined for general n: inflation Hn(G/N, AN) → Hn(G, A) restriction Hn(G, A) → Hn(N, A)G/N The transgression is defined for general n transgression Hn(N, A)G/N → Hn+1(G/N, AN) only if Hi(N, A)G/N = 0 for i ≤ n − 1. The sequence for general n may be deduced from the case n = 1 by dimension-shifting or from the Lyndon–Hochschild–Serre spectral sequence. References Homological algebra
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beurling%20zeta%20function
In mathematics, a Beurling zeta function is an analogue of the Riemann zeta function where the ordinary primes are replaced by a set of Beurling generalized primes: any sequence of real numbers greater than 1 that tend to infinity. These were introduced by . A Beurling generalized integer is a number that can be written as a product of Beurling generalized primes. Beurling generalized the usual prime number theorem to Beurling generalized primes. He showed that if the number N(x) of Beurling generalized integers less than x is of the form N(x) = Ax + O(x log−γx) with γ > 3/2 then the number of Beurling generalized primes less than x is asymptotic to x/log x, just as for ordinary primes, but if γ = 3/2 then this conclusion need not hold.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opposite%20group
In group theory, a branch of mathematics, an opposite group is a way to construct a group from another group that allows one to define right action as a special case of left action. Monoids, groups, rings, and algebras can be viewed as categories with a single object. The construction of the opposite category generalizes the opposite group, opposite ring, etc. Definition Let be a group under the operation . The opposite group of , denoted , has the same underlying set as , and its group operation is defined by . If is abelian, then it is equal to its opposite group. Also, every group (not necessarily abelian) is naturally isomorphic to its opposite group: An isomorphism is given by . More generally, any antiautomorphism gives rise to a corresponding isomorphism via , since Group action Let be an object in some category, and be a right action.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter%20Orno
Beginning in 1974, the fictitious Peter Orno (alternatively, Peter Ørno, P. Ørno, and P. Orno) appeared as the author of research papers in mathematics. According to Robert Phelps, the name "P. Orno" is a pseudonym that was inspired by "porno", an abbreviation for "pornography". Orno's short papers have been called "elegant" contributions to functional analysis. Orno's theorem on linear operators is important in the theory of Banach spaces. Research mathematicians have written acknowledgments that have thanked Orno for stimulating discussions and for Orno's generosity in allowing others to publish his results. The Mathematical Association of America's journals have also published more than a dozen problems whose solutions were submitted in the name of Orno. Biography Peter Orno appears as the author of short papers written by an anonymous mathematician; thus "Peter Orno" is a pseudonym. According to Robert R. Phelps, the name "P. Orno" was inspired by "porno", a shortening of "pornography". Orno's papers list his affiliation as the Department of Mathematics at Ohio State University. This affiliation is confirmed in the description of Orno as a "special creation" at Ohio State in Pietsch's History of Banach spaces and linear operators. The publications list of Ohio State mathematician Gerald Edgar includes two items that were published under the name of Orno. Edgar indicates that he published them "as Peter Ørno". Research His papers feature "surprisingly simple" proofs and solutions to open problems in functional analysis and approximation theory, according to reviewers from Mathematical Reviews: In one case, Orno's "elegant" approach was contrasted with the previously known "elementary, but masochistic" approach. Peter Orno's "permanent interest and sharp criticism stimulated" the "work" on Lectures on Banach spaces of analytic functions by Aleksander Pełczyński, which includes several of Orno's unpublished results. Tomczak-Jaegermann thanked Peter Orno for his stimulating discussions. Selected publications Peter Orno has published in research journals and in collections; his papers have always been short, having lengths between one and three pages. Orno has also established himself as a formidable solver of mathematical problems in peer-reviewed journals published by the Mathematical Association of America. Research papers According to Mathematical Reviews (), this paper proves the following theorem, which has come to be known as "Orno's theorem": Suppose that E and F are Banach lattices, where F is an infinite-dimensional vector space that contains no Riesz subspace that is uniformly isomorphic to the sequence space equipped with the supremum norm. If each linear operator in the uniform closure of the finite-rank operators from E to F has a Riesz decomposition as the difference of two positive operators, then E can be renormed so that it is an L-space (in the sense of Kakutani and Birkhoff). According to Mathematical Reviews (),

John Quackenbush is an American computational biologist and genome scientist. He is a professor of biostatistics and computational biology and a professor of cancer biology at the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI), as well as the director of its Center for Cancer Computational Biology (CCCB). Quackenbush also holds an appointment as a professor of computational biology and bioinformatics in the Department of Biostatistics at the Harvard School of Public Health. Education and early life A native of Mountain Top, Pennsylvania, Quackenbush attended Bishop Hoban High School in Wilkes Barre, graduating in 1979, after which he attended the California Institute of Technology, where he earned a bachelor's degree in physics. He went on to earn a doctorate in theoretical physics from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1990. Career and research After working two years as a postdoctoral fellow in physics, Quackenbush was awarded a Special Emphasis Research Career Award from the National Center for Human Genome Research (the predecessor of the National Human Genome Research Institute), and subsequently spent the next two years at the Salk Institute working on physical maps of human chromosome 11, followed by another two years at Stanford University developing new laboratory and computational strategies for sequencing the human genome. In 1997, Quackenbush joined the faculty of The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR) in Rockville, Maryland, where his focus began to shift to post-genomic applications, with an emphasis on microarray analysis. Using a combination of laboratory and computational approaches, Quackenbush and his group developed analytical methods based on the integration of data across domains to derive biological meaning from high-dimensional data. In 2005, Quackenbush was appointed to his current positions at the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute and the Harvard School of Public Health. Four years later, he launched the DFCI's Center for Cancer Computational Biology, which he directs and which provides broad-based bioinformatics and computational biology support to the research community through a collaborative consulting model, and which also performs and analyzes large-scale second-generation DNA sequencing. Quackenbush's current research focuses on the analysis of human cancer using systems biology-based approaches to understanding and modeling the biological networks that underlie disease. This has led him and his colleagues to make fundamental discoveries about the role that variation in gene expression plays in defining biological phenotypes. In 2010, Quackenbush and his colleagues at CCCB, together with investigators at National Jewish Health's Center for Genes, Environment and Health, University of Pittsburgh's Dorothy P. and Richard P.

Louis Melville Milne-Thomson CBE FRSE RAS (1 May 1891 – 21 August 1974) was an English applied mathematician who wrote several classic textbooks on applied mathematics, including The Calculus of Finite Differences, Theoretical Hydrodynamics, and Theoretical Aerodynamics. He is also known for developing several mathematical tables such as Jacobian Elliptic Function Tables. The Milne-Thomson circle theorem and the Milne-Thomson method for finding a holomorphic function are named after him. Milne-Thomson was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1952. Early years and career Milne-Thomson was born in Ealing, London, England on 1 May 1891 to Colonel Alexander Milne-Thomson, a physician and Eva Mary Milne, the daughter of the Revd J. Milne. He was the eldest of his parents' sons. He studied at Clifton College in Bristol as a classical scholar for three years. After securing a scholarship, Milne-Thomson joined Corpus Christi College, Cambridge in 1909 and received part I of the Mathematical Tripos in 1911. He graduated with distinction as a Wrangler in 1913. In 1914 Milne-Thomson joined Winchester College in Hampshire as an assistant mathematics master and taught there for next seven years. In 1921 he was appointed professor of mathematics at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich and remained there until retirement at the age of 65. In 1933 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. His proposers were Bevan Baker, John Marshall, Edward Thomas Copson, and Herbert Turnbull. After retiring from the Royal Naval College, Milne-Thomson took up various posts as Visiting Professor at various institutions around the world, including the Brown University at Rhode Island, the US Army Mathematics Research Center at the University of Wisconsin (1958–1960), the University of Arizona (1961–1970), University of Rome (1968), the University of Queensland (1969), the University of Calgary (1970), and finally the University of Otago (1971). At the end of a long career Milne-Thomson quit academia in 1971 and went to live in Sevenoaks, Kent where he died at the age of 83. Work During the early stages of his career, he developed and compiled several mathematical tables such as the Standard Four Figure Mathematical Tables jointly constructed with L. J. Comrie and published in 1931, Standard Table of Square Roots (1932), and Jacobian Elliptic Function Tables (1932). Later, Milne-Thomson wrote the chapters on Elliptic Integrals and Jacobian Elliptic Functions in the classic NBS AMS 55 handbook. In 1933 Milne-Thomson published his first book, The Calculus of Finite Differences which became a classic textbook and the original text was reprinted in 1951. In the mid 1930s, Milne-Thomson developed an interest in hydrodynamics and later in aerodynamics. This led to publication of two popular textbooks titled Theoretical Hydrodynamics and Theoretical Aerodynamics. The Theoretical Hydrodynamics published by Macmillan & Co. Ltd., London, appeare

Ivar I. Ekeland (born 2 July 1944, Paris) is a French mathematician of Norwegian descent. Ekeland has written influential monographs and textbooks on nonlinear functional analysis, the calculus of variations, and mathematical economics, as well as popular books on mathematics, which have been published in French, English, and other languages. Ekeland is known as the author of Ekeland's variational principle and for his use of the Shapley–Folkman lemma in optimization theory. He has contributed to the periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems and particularly to the theory of Kreĭn indices for linear systems (Floquet theory). Ekeland helped to inspire the discussion of chaos theory in Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park. Biography Ekeland studied at the École Normale Supérieure (1963–1967). He is a senior research fellow at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS). He obtained his doctorate in 1970. He teaches mathematics and economics at the Paris Dauphine University, the École Polytechnique, the École Spéciale Militaire de Saint-Cyr, and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He was the chairman of Paris-Dauphine University from 1989 to 1994. Ekeland is a recipient of the D'Alembert Prize and the Jean Rostand prize. He is also a member of the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters. Popular science: Jurassic Park by Crichton and Spielberg Ekeland has written several books on popular science, in which he has explained parts of dynamical systems, chaos theory, and probability theory. These books were first written in French and then translated into English and other languages, where they received praise for their mathematical accuracy as well as their value as literature and as entertainment. Through these writings, Ekeland had an influence on Jurassic Park, on both the novel and film. Ekeland's Mathematics and the unexpected and James Gleick's Chaos inspired the discussions of chaos theory in the novel Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. When the novel was adapted for the film Jurassic Park by Steven Spielberg, Ekeland and Gleick were consulted by the actor Jeff Goldblum as he prepared to play the mathematician specializing in chaos theory. Research Ekeland has contributed to mathematical analysis, particularly to variational calculus and mathematical optimization. Variational principle In mathematical analysis, Ekeland's variational principle, discovered by Ivar Ekeland, is a theorem that asserts that there exists a nearly optimal solution to a class of optimization problems. Ekeland's variational principle can be used when the lower level set of a minimization problem is not compact, so that the Bolzano–Weierstrass theorem can not be applied. Ekeland's principle relies on the completeness of the metric space. Ekeland's principle leads to a quick proof of the Caristi fixed point theorem. Ekeland was associated with the University of Paris when he proposed this theorem. Variational theory of Hamilt

International Territorial Level (ITL) is a geocode standard for referencing the subdivisions of the United Kingdom for statistical purposes, used by the Office for National Statistics (ONS). Between 2003 and 2021, as part of the European Union and European Statistical System, the geocode standard used for the United Kingdom were Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics or NUTS. The NUTS code for the UK was UK and the NUTS standard had a hierarchy of three levels, with 12 first level regions, which are currently mirrored by the ITL classification, of which 9 regions are in England. The sub-structure corresponds to administrative divisions within the country. Formerly, the further NUTS divisions IV and V existed; these have now been replaced by Local Administrative Units (LAU-1 and LAU-2 respectively). Between 1994 and 2011, the nine regions had an administrative role in the implementation of UK Government policy, and as the areas covered by (mostly indirectly) elected bodies. List of regions The ITL 1 statistical regions correspond with the regions of England as used by the UK's Office for National Statistics. Prior to 2021, all codes had "UK" instead of "TL" for Territorial Level. TLC. North East (used in NUTS as UKC) TLD. North West (used in NUTS as UKD) TLE. Yorkshire and the Humber (used in NUTS as UKE) TLF. East Midlands (used in NUTS as UKF) TLG. West Midlands (used in NUTS as UKG) TLH. East of England (used in NUTS as UKH) TLI. London (used in NUTS as UKI) TLJ. South East (used in NUTS as UKJ) TLK. South West (used in NUTS as UKK) Greater London has a directly elected Mayor and Assembly. The other eight regions have Local authority leaders' boards, which have a role in coordinating local government on a regional level, with members appointed by local government bodies. These boards replaced indirectly elected regional assemblies, which were established in 1994 and undertook a range of co-ordinating, lobbying, scrutiny and strategic planning functions until their abolition. Sub-structure of the regions Each region of England is divided into a range of metropolitan and non-metropolitan counties. For ITL purposes, these subdivisions are formally known as ITL levels 2 and 3. London region is divided into London boroughs (ITL 3, usual grouped) All other regions are divided into metropolitan counties (ITL 2) shire counties (ITL 2 or 3 depending on the region) and unitary authorities (usually ITL 3).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bratteli%E2%80%93Vershik%20diagram
In mathematics, a Bratteli–Veršik diagram is an ordered, essentially simple Bratteli diagram (V, E) with a homeomorphism on the set of all infinite paths called the Veršhik transformation. It is named after Ola Bratteli and Anatoly Vershik. Definition Let X = {(e1, e2, ...) | ei ∈ Ei and r(ei) = s(ei+1)} be the set of all paths in the essentially simple Bratteli diagram (V, E). Let Emin be the set of all minimal edges in E, similarly let Emax be the set of all maximal edges. Let y be the unique infinite path in Emax. (Diagrams which possess a unique infinite path are called "essentially simple".) The Veršhik transformation is a homeomorphism φ : X → X defined such that φ(x) is the unique minimal path if x = y. Otherwise x = (e1, e2,...) | ei ∈ Ei where at least one ei ∉ Emax. Let k be the smallest such integer. Then φ(x) = (f1, f2, ..., fk−1, ek + 1, ek+1, ... ), where ek + 1 is the successor of ek in the total ordering of edges incident on r(ek) and (f1, f2, ..., fk−1) is the unique minimal path to ek + 1. The Veršhik transformation allows us to construct a pointed topological system (X, φ, y) out of any given ordered, essentially simple Bratteli diagram. The reverse construction is also defined. Equivalence The notion of graph minor can be promoted from a well-quasi-ordering to an equivalence relation if we assume the relation is symmetric. This is the notion of equivalence used for Bratteli diagrams. The major result in this field is that equivalent essentially simple ordered Bratteli diagrams correspond to topologically conjugate pointed dynamical systems. This allows us apply results from the former field into the latter and vice versa. See also Markov odometer Notes Further reading Application-specific graphs Operator algebras

Miklós Simonovits (4 September 1943 in Budapest) is a Hungarian mathematician who currently works at the Rényi Institute of Mathematics in Budapest and is a member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. He is on the advisory board of the journal Combinatorica. He is best known for his work in extremal graph theory and was awarded Széchenyi Prize in 2014. Among other things, he discovered the method of progressive induction which he used to describe graphs which do not contain a predetermined graph and the number of edges is close to maximal. With Lovász, he gave a randomized algorithm using O(n7 log2 n) separation calls to approximate the volume of a convex body within a fixed relative error. Simonovits was also one of the most frequent collaborators with Paul Erdős, co-authoring 21 papers with him. Career He began his university studies at the Mathematics department of Eötvös Loránd University in 1962, after winning a silver and bronze medal at the International Mathematics Olympiad in 1961 and 1962 respectively. He got his diploma in mathematics from the university in 1967 and defended his PhD under Vera T. Sós in 1971. He taught as an assistant professor and then associate professor at Eötvös Loránd, from 1971 to 1979, mainly combinatorics and analysis. He joined Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics in 1979. In the coming years, he was appointed as the professor in Discrete mathematics. He was also a visiting professor at a number of foreign institutions in US and Canada. He was also a visiting researcher at Moscow State University, Charles University, Prague, Warsaw University, Denmark and various institutions in India. He was elected as a corresponding member at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences in 2001 and full membership was awarded in 2008. Academic work His main research interests are Combinatorics, Extremal Graph Theory, Theoretical Computer Science and Random Graphs. He discovered the method of progressive induction which he used to describe graphs which do not contain a predetermined graph and the number of edges is close to maximal. With Laszlo Lovász, he gave a randomized algorithm using O(n7 log2 n) separation calls to approximate the volume of a convex body within a fixed relative error. He is a long-time collaborator of Endre Szemeredi and worked with him closely. Simonovits was also one of the most frequent collaborators with Paul Erdős, co-authoring 21 papers with him. Family His father Simonovits István (1907–1985) was a doctor and a hematologist. He was a member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. Beke Anna, his mother, was a mathematics and physics teacher, who also worked in a book publishing company.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal%20semantics%20%28natural%20language%29
Formal semantics is the study of grammatical meaning in natural languages using formal tools from logic, mathematics and theoretical computer science. It is an interdisciplinary field, sometimes regarded as a subfield of both linguistics and philosophy of language. It provides accounts of what linguistic expressions mean and how their meanings are composed from the meanings of their parts. The enterprise of formal semantics can be thought of as that of reverse-engineering the semantic components of natural languages' grammars. Overview Formal semantics studies the denotations of natural language expressions. High-level concerns include compositionality, reference, and the nature of meaning. Key topic areas include scope, modality, binding, tense, and aspect. Semantics is distinct from pragmatics, which encompasses aspects of meaning which arise from interaction and communicative intent. Formal semantics is an interdisciplinary field, often viewed as a subfield of both linguistics and philosophy, while also incorporating work from computer science, mathematical logic, and cognitive psychology. Within philosophy, formal semanticists typically adopt a Platonistic ontology and an externalist view of meaning. Within linguistics, it is more common to view formal semantics as part of the study of linguistic cognition. As a result, philosophers put more of an emphasis on conceptual issues while linguists are more likely to focus on the syntax–semantics interface and crosslinguistic variation. Central concepts Truth conditions The fundamental question of formal semantics is what you know when you know how to interpret expressions of a language. A common assumption is that knowing the meaning of a sentence requires knowing its truth conditions, or in other words knowing what the world would have to be like for the sentence to be true. For instance, to know the meaning of the English sentence "Nancy smokes" one has to know that it is true when the person Nancy performs the action of smoking. However, many current approaches to formal semantics posit that there is more to meaning than truth-conditions. In the formal semantic framework of inquisitive semantics, knowing the meaning of a sentence also requires knowing what issues (i.e. questions) it raises. For instance "Nancy smokes, but does she drink?" conveys the same truth-conditional information as the previous example but also raises an issue of whether Nancy drinks. Other approaches generalize the concept of truth conditionality or treat it as epiphenomenal. For instance in dynamic semantics, knowing the meaning of a sentence amounts to knowing how it updates a context. Pietroski treats meanings as instructions to build concepts. Compositionality The Principle of Compositionality is the fundamental assumption in formal semantics. This principle states that the denotation of a complex expression is determined by the denotations of its parts along with their mode of composition. For instance,

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced%20character
In mathematics, an induced character is the character of the representation V of a finite group G induced from a representation W of a subgroup H ≤ G. More generally, there is also a notion of induction of a class function f on H given by the formula If f is a character of the representation W of H, then this formula for calculates the character of the induced representation V of G. The basic result on induced characters is Brauer's theorem on induced characters. It states that every irreducible character on G is a linear combination with integer coefficients of characters induced from elementary subgroups. References Group theory
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical%20semigroup
In mathematics, a numerical semigroup is a special kind of a semigroup. Its underlying set is the set of all nonnegative integers except a finite number and the binary operation is the operation of addition of integers. Also, the integer 0 must be an element of the semigroup. For example, while the set {0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...} is a numerical semigroup, the set {0, 1, 3, 5, 6, ...} is not because 1 is in the set and 1 + 1 = 2 is not in the set. Numerical semigroups are commutative monoids and are also known as numerical monoids. The definition of numerical semigroup is intimately related to the problem of determining nonnegative integers that can be expressed in the form x1n1 + x2 n2 + ... + xr nr for a given set {n1, n2, ..., nr} of positive integers and for arbitrary nonnegative integers x1, x2, ..., xr. This problem had been considered by several mathematicians like Frobenius (1849–1917) and Sylvester (1814–1897) at the end of the 19th century. During the second half of the twentieth century, interest in the study of numerical semigroups resurfaced because of their applications in algebraic geometry. Definition and examples Definition Let N be the set of nonnegative integers. A subset S of N is called a numerical semigroup if the following conditions are satisfied. 0 is an element of S N − S, the complement of S in N, is finite. If x and y are in S then x + y is also in S. There is a simple method to construct numerical semigroups. Let A = {n1, n2, ..., nr} be a nonempty set of positive integers. The set of all integers of the form x1 n1 + x2 n2 + ... + xr nr is the subset of N generated by A and is denoted by 〈 A 〉. The following theorem fully characterizes numerical semigroups. Theorem Let S be the subsemigroup of N generated by A. Then S is a numerical semigroup if and only if gcd (A) = 1. Moreover, every numerical semigroup arises in this way. Examples The following subsets of N are numerical semigroups. 〈 1 〉 = {0, 1, 2, 3, ...} 〈 1, 2 〉 = {0, 1, 2, 3, ...} 〈 2, 3 〉 = {0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...} Let a be a positive integer. 〈 a, a + 1, a + 2, ... , 2a – 1 〉 = {0, a, a + 1, a + 2, a + 3, ...}. Let b be an odd integer greater than 1. Then 〈 2, b 〉 = {0, 2, 4, . . . , b − 3 , b − 1, b, b + 1, b + 2, b + 3 , ...}. Well-tempered harmonic semigroup H={0,12,19,24,28,31,34,36,38,40,42,43,45,46,47,48,...} Embedding dimension, multiplicity The set A is a set of generators of the numerical semigroup 〈 A 〉. A set of generators of a numerical semigroup is a minimal system of generators if none of its proper subsets generates the numerical semigroup. It is known that every numerical semigroup S has a unique minimal system of generators and also that this minimal system of generators is finite. The cardinality of the minimal set of generators is called the embedding dimension of the numerical semigroup S and is denoted by e(S). The smallest member in the minimal system of generators is called the multiplicity of the numerical semigroup S an

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focused%20information%20criterion
In statistics, the focused information criterion (FIC) is a method for selecting the most appropriate model among a set of competitors for a given data set. Unlike most other model selection strategies, like the Akaike information criterion (AIC), the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and the deviance information criterion (DIC), the FIC does not attempt to assess the overall fit of candidate models but focuses attention directly on the parameter of primary interest with the statistical analysis, say , for which competing models lead to different estimates, say for model . The FIC method consists in first developing an exact or approximate expression for the precision or quality of each estimator, say for , and then use data to estimate these precision measures, say . In the end the model with best estimated precision is selected. The FIC methodology was developed by Gerda Claeskens and Nils Lid Hjort, first in two 2003 discussion articles in Journal of the American Statistical Association and later on in other papers and in their 2008 book. The concrete formulae and implementation for FIC depend firstly on the particular parameter of interest, the choice of which does not depend on mathematics but on the scientific and statistical context. Thus the FIC apparatus may be selecting one model as most appropriate for estimating a quantile of a distribution but preferring another model as best for estimating the mean value. Secondly, the FIC formulae depend on the specifics of the models used for the observed data and also on how precision is to be measured. The clearest case is where precision is taken to be mean squared error, say in terms of squared bias and variance for the estimator associated with model . FIC formulae are then available in a variety of situations, both for handling parametric, semiparametric and nonparametric situations, involving separate estimation of squared bias and variance, leading to estimated precision . In the end the FIC selects the model with smallest estimated mean squared error. Associated with the use of the FIC for selecting a good model is the FIC plot, designed to give a clear and informative picture of all estimates, across all candidate models, and their merit. It displays estimates on the axis along with FIC scores on the axis; thus estimates found to the left in the plot are associated with the better models and those found in the middle and to the right stem from models less or not adequate for the purpose of estimating the focus parameter in question. Generally speaking, complex models (with many parameters relative to sample size) tend to lead to estimators with small bias but high variance; more parsimonious models (with fewer parameters) typically yield estimators with larger bias but smaller variance. The FIC method balances the two desired data of having small bias and small variance in an optimal fashion. The main difficulty lies with the bias , as it involves the distance from the expecte
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robust%20Bayesian%20analysis
In statistics, robust Bayesian analysis, also called Bayesian sensitivity analysis, is a type of sensitivity analysis applied to the outcome from Bayesian inference or Bayesian optimal decisions. Sensitivity analysis Robust Bayesian analysis, also called Bayesian sensitivity analysis, investigates the robustness of answers from a Bayesian analysis to uncertainty about the precise details of the analysis. An answer is robust if it does not depend sensitively on the assumptions and calculation inputs on which it is based. Robust Bayes methods acknowledge that it is sometimes very difficult to come up with precise distributions to be used as priors. Likewise the appropriate likelihood function that should be used for a particular problem may also be in doubt. In a robust Bayes approach, a standard Bayesian analysis is applied to all possible combinations of prior distributions and likelihood functions selected from classes of priors and likelihoods considered empirically plausible by the analyst. In this approach, a class of priors and a class of likelihoods together imply a class of posteriors by pairwise combination through Bayes' rule. Robust Bayes also uses a similar strategy to combine a class of probability models with a class of utility functions to infer a class of decisions, any of which might be the answer given the uncertainty about best probability model and utility function. In both cases, the result is said to be robust if it is approximately the same for each such pair. If the answers differ substantially, then their range is taken as an expression of how much (or how little) can be confidently inferred from the analysis. Although robust Bayes methods are clearly inconsistent with the Bayesian idea that uncertainty should be measured by a single additive probability measure and that personal attitudes and values should always be measured by a precise utility function, they are often accepted as a matter of convenience (e.g., because the cost or schedule do not allow the more painstaking effort needed to get a precise measure and function). Some analysts also suggest that robust methods extend the traditional Bayesian approach by recognizing incertitude as of a different kind of uncertainty. Analysts in the latter category suggest that the set of distributions in the prior class is not a class of reasonable priors, but that it is rather a reasonable class of priors. The idea is that no single distribution is reasonable as a model of ignorance, but considered as a whole, the class is a reasonable model for ignorance. Robust Bayes methods are related to important and seminal ideas in other areas of statistics such as robust statistics and resistance estimators. The arguments in favor of a robust approach are often applicable to Bayesian analyses. For example, some criticize methods that must assume the analyst is "omniscient" about certain facts such as model structure, distribution shapes and parameters. Because such facts are t

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectified%20Gaussian%20distribution
In probability theory, the rectified Gaussian distribution is a modification of the Gaussian distribution when its negative elements are reset to 0 (analogous to an electronic rectifier). It is essentially a mixture of a discrete distribution (constant 0) and a continuous distribution (a truncated Gaussian distribution with interval ) as a result of censoring. Density function The probability density function of a rectified Gaussian distribution, for which random variables X having this distribution, derived from the normal distribution are displayed as , is given by Here, is the cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the standard normal distribution: is the Dirac delta function and, is the unit step function: Mean and variance Since the unrectified normal distribution has mean and since in transforming it to the rectified distribution some probability mass has been shifted to a higher value (from negative values to 0), the mean of the rectified distribution is greater than Since the rectified distribution is formed by moving some of the probability mass toward the rest of the probability mass, the rectification is a mean-preserving contraction combined with a mean-changing rigid shift of the distribution, and thus the variance is decreased; therefore the variance of the rectified distribution is less than Generating values To generate values computationally, one can use and then Application A rectified Gaussian distribution is semi-conjugate to the Gaussian likelihood, and it has been recently applied to factor analysis, or particularly, (non-negative) rectified factor analysis. Harva proposed a variational learning algorithm for the rectified factor model, where the factors follow a mixture of rectified Gaussian; and later Meng proposed an infinite rectified factor model coupled with its Gibbs sampling solution, where the factors follow a Dirichlet process mixture of rectified Gaussian distribution, and applied it in computational biology for reconstruction of gene regulatory networks. Extension to general bounds An extension to the rectified Gaussian distribution was proposed by Palmer et al., allowing rectification between arbitrary lower and upper bounds. For lower and upper bounds and respectively, the cdf, is given by: where is the cdf of a normal distribution with mean and variance . The mean and variance of the rectified distribution is calculated by first transforming the constraints to be acting on a standard normal distribution: Using the transformed constraints, the mean and variance, and respectively, are then given by: where is the error function. This distribution was used by Palmer et al. for modelling physical resource levels, such as the quantity of liquid in a vessel, which is bounded by both 0 and the capacity of the vessel.

Zoghman Mebkhout (born 1949 ) (زغمان مبخوت) is a French-Algerian mathematician. He is known for his work in algebraic analysis, geometry and representation theory, more precisely on the theory of D-modules. Career Mebkhout is currently a research director at the French National Centre for Scientific Research and in 2002 Zoghman received the Servant Medal from the CNRS a prize given every two years with an amount of €10,000. Notable works In September 1979 Mebkhout presented the Riemann–Hilbert correspondence, which is a generalization of Hilbert's twenty-first problem to higher dimensions. The original setting was for Riemann surfaces, where it was about the existence of regular differential equations with prescribed monodromy groups. In higher dimensions, Riemann surfaces are replaced by complex manifolds of dimension > 1. Certain systems of partial differential equations (linear and having very special properties for their solutions) and possible monodromies of their solutions correspond. An independent proof of this result was presented by Masaki Kashiwara in April 1980. Zoghman is now largely known as a specialist in D-modules theory. Recognition Zoghman is one of the first modern international-caliber North-African mathematicians. A symposium in Spain was held on his sixtieth birthday. He was invited to the Institute for Advanced Study and gave a recent talk at Institut Fourier. Alexander Grothendieck said that Mebkhout's name was hidden and his role neglected in an operation headed by Pierre Deligne in the Luminy congress in June 1981. He calls it "a great disgrace of the mathematical world of this century" and is one of the reasons of Grothendieck's departure from mathematics.

Bonnie Madison Stewart (July 10, 1914 – April 15, 1994) was a professor of mathematics at Michigan State University from 1940 to 1980. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1941, under the supervision of Cyrus Colton MacDuffee. Contributions Number theory In 1952, the first edition of his book, Theory of Numbers, was published. Stewart's contributions to number theory also include a complete characterization of the practical numbers in terms of their factorizations, which he published in 1954, a year before Wacław Sierpiński's independent discovery of the same result. Geometry In 1970 he published a book, Adventures among the toroids. A study of orientable polyhedra with regular faces, in which he discussed what are now called Stewart toroids. The book was handwritten in calligraphy with many formulas and illustrations. Like the Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, and Johnson solids, the Stewart polyhedra have regular polygons as faces. The first three categories are all convex, whereas Stewart toroids have polygonal-faced tunnels. Selected publications B. M. Stewart, Theory of Numbers, Macmillan, 1952. 2nd ed., Macmillan, 1964. .
