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.

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.

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 ...

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.

Categories of First-Order Quantifiers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
One well known problem regarding quantifiers, in particular the 1storder quantifiers, is connected with their syntactic categories and denotations. The unsatisfactory efforts to establish the syntactic and ontological categories

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 ...

Time averaging for functional differential equations

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2003, Issue 1, Page 1-16, 2003., 2003
We present a result on the averaging for functional differential equations on finite time intervals. The result is formulated in both classical mathematics and nonstandard analysis; its proof uses some methods of nonstandard analysis.

The method of averaging and functional differential equations with delay

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 26, Issue 8, Page 497-511, 2001., 2001
We present a natural extension of the method of averaging to fast oscillating functional differential equations with delay. Unlike the usual approach where the analysis is kept in an infinite‐dimensional Banach space, our analysis is achieved in ℝn. Our results are formulated in classical mathematics. They are proved within Internal Set Theory which is
