Aggregation and the Structure of Value
ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Weak, Strong and Mixed Extensions of Relations to Spaces of Ultrafilters
ABSTRACT The use of nonstandard methods to characterize properties of weak, strong and mixed extensions of congruences to ultrafilters has been the main topic of several recent papers, focused mostly on congruences and divisions. We show that similar methods can be used to extend these characterizations to arbitrary relations and their interplay.

Implicitly extrapolated geometric multigrid on disk-like domains for the gyrokinetic Poisson equation from fusion plasma applications [PDF]
In the context of Tokamak fusion plasma, the gyrokinetic Poisson equation has to be solved on disk-like domains which correspond to the poloidal cross-section of the Tokamak geometry.

ABSTRACT Medical advances have increased cancer survival rates and the possibility of finding a cure. Hence, it is crucial to evaluate the impact of treatments both in terms of cure and prolongation of survival. To achieve this, we may use a Cox proportional hazards cure model.

OpenCL‐based implementation of an unstructured edge‐based finite element convection‐diffusion solver on graphics hardware [PDF]
The solution of problems in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) represents a classical field for the application of advanced numerical methods. Many different approaches were developed over the years to address CFD applications.

Functional data analysis in the Banach space of continuous functions [PDF]
Functional data analysis is typically conducted within the L2-Hilbert space framework. There is by now a fully developed statistical toolbox allowing for the principled application of the functional data machinery to real-world problems, often based on ...

Zero-pairing limit of Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov reference states [PDF]
International audienceBackground: The variational Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) mean-field theory is the starting point of various (ab initio) many-body methods dedicated to superfluid systems.

A nonstandard finite difference scheme for an SEIQR epidemiological PDE model
This paper introduces a nonstandard finite difference (NSFD) approach to a reaction-diffusion SEIQR epidemiological model, which captures the spatiotemporal dynamics of infectious disease transmission. Formulated as a system of semilinear parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs), the model extends classical compartmental models by incorporating ...

A nonstandard finite difference scheme for a nonlinear Black–Scholes equation
Abstract In this paper we construct a numerical method based on a nonstandard finite difference scheme to solve numerically a nonlinear Black–Scholes equation modeling illiquid markets. In particular, the proposed method uses an exact difference scheme in the linear convection–reaction term and the spatial derivative is approximated using a ...

Embeddability properties of difference sets [PDF]
By using nonstandard analysis, we prove embeddability properties of differences A − B of sets of integers. (A set A is “embeddable” into B if every finite configuration of A has shifted copies in B.) As corollaries of our main theorem, we obtain ...
