On Wigdersons' approach to the uncertainty principle [PDF]

open access: yes
We revisit the uncertainty principle from the point of view suggested by A. Wigderson and Y. Wigderson. This approach is based on a primary uncertainty principle from which one can derive several inequalities expressing the impossibility of a ...

Fuzzy arithmetic based on dimension-adaptive sparse grids: A case study of a large-scale finite element model under uncertain parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Fuzzy arithmetic provides a powerful tool to introduce uncertainty into mathematical models. With Zadeh's extension principle, one can obtain a fuzzy-valued extension of any real-valued objective function.
