Mathematics and the real world

open access: yesKoers : Bulletin for Christian Scholarship, 2000
In this article the initial discussion of the untenability of the distinction between “pure” and “applied" mathematics is followed by looking at alternative approaches regarding the relationship between mathematics and the “real world” - with ...

Non-Markovian Dynamics of a Qubit Due to Single-Photon Scattering in a Waveguide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate the open dynamics of a qubit due to scattering of a single photon in an infinite or semi-infinite waveguide. Through an exact solution of the time-dependent multi-photon scattering problem, we find the qubit's dynamical map.

Free infinite divisibility for beta distributions and related ones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We prove that many of beta, beta prime, gamma, inverse gamma, Student t- and ultraspherical distributions are freely infinitely divisible, but some of them are not. The latter negative result follows from a local property of probability density functions.

The de Finetti structure behind some norm-symmetric multivariate densities with exponential decay

open access: yesDependence Modeling, 2020
We derive a sufficient condition on the symmetric norm ||·|| such that the probability distribution associated with the density function f (x) ∝exp(−λ ||x||) is conditionally independent and identically distributed in the sense of de Finetti’s seminal ...

Nuclear dimension and Z-stability of non-simple C*-algebras [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We investigate the interplay of the following regularity properties for non-simple C*-algebras: finite nuclear dimension, Z-stability, and algebraic regularity in the Cuntz semigroup.

A certain class of Laplace transforms with applications to reaction and reaction-diffusion equations

open access: yes, 2007
A class of Laplace transforms is examined to show that particular cases of this class are associated with production-destruction and reaction-diffusion problems in physics, study of differences of independently distributed random variables and the ...

Characterizations and Infinite Divisibility of Certain Recently Introduced Distributions IV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Certain characterizations of recently proposed univariate continuous distributions are presented in different directions. This work contains a good number of reintroduced distributions and may serve as a source of preventing the reinvention and/or ...

Infinite Divisibility in Euclidean Quantum Mechanics

open access: yes, 2006
In simple -- but selected -- quantum systems, the probability distribution determined by the ground state wave function is infinitely divisible.

Some new approaches to infinite divisibility

open access: yes, 2011
Using an approach based, amongst other things, on Proposition 1 of Kaluza (1928), Goldie (1967) and, using a different approach based especially on zeros of polynomials, Steutel (1967) have proved that each nondegenerate distribution function (d.f.) $F$ (
