Many governments and tech companies are investing heavily in quantum technologies. In New Zealand, the recently announced Institute for Advanced Technology is also envisioned to focus on this area of ...

Abstract: It is well known that the entropy H(X) of a discrete random variable X is always greater than or equal to the entropy H(f(X)) of a function f of X, with equality if and only if f is ...

This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers who are interested in the probability limit theory of random matrices and random partitions. It mainly consists of three parts. Part I is a ...

The Busy Beaver Challenge, a notoriously difficult question in theoretical computer science, is now producing answers so large they’re impossible to write out using standard mathematical notation.

The seemingly unpredictable, and thereby uncontrollable, dynamics of living organisms have perplexed and fascinated scientists for a long time. While these dynamics can be represented by reaction ...

Can random acts of kindness help us cope with difficulty? Here are some lessons we can learn from the writer Franz Kafka.

MESA, AZ (AZFamily) — A man is in custody after he reportedly broke into a Mesa apartment early Wednesday morning, stabbing a mom and her two daughters in what police called a random act of violence.

Abstract: This paper introduces a new, reference trajectory following, sliding-mode control strategy for disturbed discrete-time systems. The strategy uses an external trajectory generator based on a ...

Discrete event systems (DES) have become pervasive in our daily lives. Examples include (but are not restricted to) manufacturing and supply chains, transportation, healthcare, call centers, and ...
