Quantum Set Theory Extending the Standard Probabilistic Interpretation of Quantum Theory (Extended Abstract) [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2014
The notion of equality between two observables will play many important roles in foundations of quantum theory. However, the standard probabilistic interpretation based on the conventional Born formula does not give the probability of equality relation ...

New extreme value theory for maxima of maxima

open access: yesStatistical Theory and Related Fields, 2021
Although advanced statistical models have been proposed to fit complex data better, the advances of science and technology have generated more complex data, e.g., Big Data, in which existing probability theory and statistical models find their ...

Random Fields in Physics, Biology and Data Science

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
A random field is the representation of the joint probability distribution for a set of random variables. Markov fields, in particular, have a long standing tradition as the theoretical foundation of many applications in statistical physics and ...

Logical perspectives on the foundations of probability

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2023
We illustrate how a variety of logical methods and techniques provide useful, though currently underappreciated, tools in the foundations and applications of reasoning under uncertainty.

How Quantum Mechanics Requires Non-Additive Measures

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
Measure theory is used in physics, not just to capture classical probability, but also to quantify the number of states. In previous works, we found that state quantification plays a foundational role in classical mechanics, and, therefore, we set ...

Response to Johnson: A random sample versus the radical event

open access: yesFinance and Society, 2016
Timothy Johnson's working hypothesis in his review of my latest book, The Medium of Contingency, is that I (as well as the ‘quants’ involved in the derivative pricing industry) do not understand the foundations of abstract probability theory.

Calculation of the reliability of the earth foundations of buildings and structures according to the deformation criteria with limited information on the soils and loads

open access: yesИнженерно-строительный журнал, 2016
GOST R 54257–2010 recommends calculating the reliability of the earth foundations of structures by probabilistic methods with full statistical information about random quantities. Currently, there are no guidelines for calculating the reliabilityof earth

The Role of Geotechnical Monitoring at Design of Foundation Structures and their Verification – Part 2

open access: yesCivil and Environmental Engineering, 2021
The main aim of the article is demonstrating successful design of spread foundations of a commercial centre building, where geotechnical monitoring allows us to check design efficiency and calculate reliability in comparison with real vertical ...

The Topology of Quantum Theory and Social Choice

open access: yesQuantum Reports, 2022
Based on the axioms of quantum theory, we identify a class of topological singularities that encode a fundamental difference between classic and quantum probability, and explain quantum theory’s puzzles and phenomena in simple mathematical terms so they ...
