An introduction to interval-based constraint processing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Constraint programming is often associated with solving problems over finite domains. Many applications in engineering, CAD and design, however, require solving problems over continuous (real-valued) domains.

Never, Ever Getting Started: On Prospect Theory Without Commitment

open access: yesMathematical Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prospect theory is arguably the most prominent alternative to expected utility theory. We study the investment or gambling behavior of a prospect theory decision maker who is aware of his time‐inconsistency but lacks commitment. For the empirically relevant prospect theory specifications, we obtain the extreme prediction that such a decision ...

AN INTERVAL FINITE DIFFERENCE METHOD FOR THE BIOHEAT TRANSFER PROBLEM DESCRIBED BY THE PENNES EQUATION WITH UNCERTAIN PARAMETERS

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper the transient bioheat transfer problem given by the one-dimensional Pennes equation with mixed boundary conditions is considered. The model assumes the heat transfer between the skin and its surroundings in the case of a natural and forced ...

Confidence Intervals for Price Discovery

open access: yesOxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper discusses asymptotic and bootstrap confidence intervals for multivariate permanent‐transitory decompositions of cointegrated vector autoregressive I(1) systems, with a focus on price discovery. Alternative estimators of the permanent components are compared in terms of efficiency also under separable linear restrictions on the ...

A universal characterization of the closed Euclidean interval [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We propose a notion of interval object in a category with finite products, providing a universal property for closed and bounded real line segments. The universal property gives rise to an analogue of primitive recursion for defining computable functions

Room for Improvement: Why Finitist Arguments Do Not Check Out

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine several new and underexplored arguments for the finitude of the past and the impossibility of Hilbert's Hotel. The first argument concludes that Hilbert's Hotel is impossible due to an alleged contradiction arising from the causal powers of infinitely many guests.

On the additive image of zeroth persistent homology

open access: yesTransactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract For a category X$X$ and a finite field F$F$, we study the additive image of the functor H0(−;F)∗:rep(X,Top)→rep(X,VectF)$\operatorname{H}_0(-;F)_* \colon \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Top}) \rightarrow \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Vect}_F)$, or equivalently, of the free functor rep(X,Set)→rep(X,VectF)$\operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Set ...

Design issues for accurate and reliable arithmetic.

open access: yes, 2000
The use of floating-point data types in high-level languages is prevalent in many of today\u27s scientific applications. However, the approximation of real numbers by finite precision floating-point numbers can produce inaccurate results due to round off

MSB-First Digit Serial Arithmetic

open access: yes, 1995
: We develop a formal account of digit serial number representations by describing them as strings from a language. A prefix of a string represents an interval approximating a number by enclosure.

Self‐Similar Blowup for the Cubic Schrödinger Equation

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 8, Page 1831-1918, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We give a rigorous proof for the existence of a finite‐energy, self‐similar solution to the focusing cubic Schrödinger equation in three spatial dimensions. The proof is computer‐assisted and relies on a fixed point argument that shows the existence of a solution in the vicinity of a numerically constructed approximation.
