The explicit formula for Gauss-Jordan elimination applied to flexible systems

open access: yesSpecial Matrices, 2022
Flexible systems are obtained from systems of linear equations by adding to the elements of the coefficient matrix and the right-hand side scalar neutrices, which are convex groups of (non-standard) real numbers.

Infinitesimals via Cauchy sequences: Refining the classical equivalence

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2021
A refinement of the classic equivalence relation among Cauchy sequences yields a useful infinitesimal-enriched number system. Such an approach can be seen as formalizing Cauchy’s sentiment that a null sequence “becomes” an infinitesimal.

A topological interpretation of three Leibnizian principles within the functional extensions [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2018
Three philosophical principles are often quoted in connection with Leibniz: "objects sharing the same properties are the same object" (Identity of indiscernibles), "everything can possibly exist, unless it yields contradiction" (Possibility as ...

A correspondence principle for the Gowers norms [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Logic and Analysis, 2009
The Furstenberg Correspondence shows that certain "local behavior" of dynamical system is equivalent to the behavior of sufficiently large finite systems. The Gowers uniformity norms, however, are not local in the relevant sense.

An algebraic model for the propagation of errors in matrix calculus

open access: yesSpecial Matrices, 2020
We assume that every element of a matrix has a small, individual error, and model it by an external number, which is the sum of a nonstandard real number and a neutrix, the latter being a convex (external) additive group.

Metric completions, the Heine-Borel property, and approachability

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2020
We show that the metric universal cover of a plane with a puncture yields an example of a nonstandard hull properly containing the metric completion of a metric space.

Calculus using proximities: a mathematical approach in which students can actually prove theorems

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2017
Teaching and learning calculus are notoriously difficult and the didactic solutions may involve resorting to intuitive but vague definitions or informal gestures offered as proofs.

Algebraic properties of external numbers

open access: yesJournal of Logic and Analysis, 2011
Neutrices and external numbers were proposed as models of orders of magnitude within nonstandard analysis. We show that the external numbers form a commutative regular semigroup for addition and that the external numbers which are not neutrices form a ...

Mixed characteristic homological theorems in low degrees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Let R be a locally finitely generated algebra over a discrete valuation ring V of mixed characteristic. For any of the homological properties, the Direct Summand Theorem, the Monomial Theorem, the Improved New Intersection Theorem, the Vanishing of Maps ...

Axiom of Choice in nonstandard set theory

open access: yesJournal of Logic and Analysis, 2012
We verify that the best-known nonstandard set theories: IST, BST, and HST, with the Axiom of Choice deleted, are conservative extensions of ZF + Boolean Prime Ideal Theorem.
