Synchronization of coupled noisy oscillators: Coarse-graining from continuous to discrete phases [PDF]
The theoretical description of synchronization phenomena often relies on coupled units of continuous time noisy Markov chains with a small number of states in each unit. It is frequently assumed, either explicitly or implicitly, that coupled discrete-state noisy Markov units can be used to model mathematically more complex coupled noisy continuous ...

Tracial approximation and ${\cal Z}$-stability [PDF]
Let $A$ be a unital separable non-elementary amenable simple stably finite C*-algebra such that its tracial state space has a $\sigma$-compact countable-dimensional extremal boundary. We show that $A$ is ${\cal Z}$-stable if and only if it has strict comparison and stable rank one. We show that this result also holds for non-unital cases (which may not

A Variation on Leopoldt's Conjecture: Some Local Units instead of All Local Units [PDF]
Leopoldt's Conjecture is a statement about the relationship between the global and local units of a number field. Approximately the conjecture states that the Z_p-rank of the diagonal embedding of the global units into the product of all local units equals the Z-rank of the global units. The variation we consider asks: Can we say anything about the Z_p-

Universal Approximation of Markov Kernels by Shallow Stochastic Feedforward Networks [PDF]
We establish upper bounds for the minimal number of hidden units for which a binary stochastic feedforward network with sigmoid activation probabilities and a single hidden layer is a universal approximator of Markov kernels. We show that each possible probabilistic assignment of the states of $n$ output units, given the states of $k\geq1$ input units,

Handelman's theorem for an order unit normed space [PDF]
We give a detailed proof D. Handelman's theorem stating (in the context of an order unit normed space) that a monotone sigma-complete order unit normed space is a Banach space.

Collapse of unit horizontal bundles equipped with a metric of Cheeger-Gromoll type [PDF]
We study unit horizontal bundles associated with Riemannian submersions. First we investigate metric properties of an arbitrary unit horizontal bundle equipped with a Riemannian metric of the Cheeger-Gromoll type. Next we examine it from the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence theory point of view, and we state a collapse theorem for unit horizontal bundles ...
