    Free ribbon lemma that every free sphere-link in the 4-sphere is a ribbon sphere-link is shown in an earlier paper by the author. In this paper, another proof of this lemma is given

    A bound for Dickson's lemma

    No full text
    We consider a special case of Dickson's lemma: for any two functions f,gf,g on the natural numbers there are two numbers i<ji<j such that both ff and gg weakly increase on them, i.e., fifjf_i\le f_j and gigjg_i \le g_j. By a combinatorial argument (due to the first author) a simple bound for such i,ji,j is constructed. The combinatorics is based on the finite pigeon hole principle and results in a descent lemma. From the descent lemma one can prove Dickson's lemma, then guess what the bound might be, and verify it by an appropriate proof. We also extract (via realizability) a bound from (a formalization of) our proof of the descent lemma. Keywords: Dickson's lemma, finite pigeon hole principle, program extraction from proofs, non-computational quantifiers

    Szemer\u27edi\u27s regularity lemma revisited

    No full text
    Szemer\u27edi\u27s regularity lemma is a basic tool in graph theory, and also plays an important role in additive combinatorics, most notably in proving Szemer\\u27edi\u27s theorem on arithmetic progressions . In this note we revisit this lemma from the perspective of probability theory and information theory instead of graph theory, and observe a variant of this lemma which introduces a new parameter FF. This stronger version of the regularity lemma was iterated in a recent paper of the author to reprove the analogous regularity lemma for hypergraphs

    Congruence structure of planar semimodular lattices: The General Swing Lemma

    No full text
    The Swing Lemma of the second author describes how a congruence spreads from a prime interval to another in a slim (having no M3M_3 sublattice), planar, semimodular lattice. We generalize the Swing Lemma to planar semimodular lattices

    Iterative Robust Experiment Design for MIMO System Identification via the S-Lemma

    No full text
    Optimal input design plays an important role in system identification for complex and multivariable systems. A known paradox in input design is that the optimal inputs depend on the true but unknown system. The aim of this paper is to design inputs for multivariable systems that are robust to all system variations within a given continuous uncertainty set. In the presented approach, the robust design problem is cast as an infinite-dimensional min-max optimization problem, and tackled via the S-lemma in an iterative approximation scheme. Experimental results from a multivariable motion system show that the algorithm enables significant robustness improvements.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Team Jan-Willem van Wingerde

    La salute degli stranieri immigrati a Torino nei sistemi informativi correnti.

    No full text
    The rising phenomenon of immigration to Italy makes necessary to be equipped with basic tools allowing to work out a health pattern of the immigrated foreigners useful to develop programs for their health protection. We describe the image of the health pattern of foreigners immigrated to Turin obtained using the current socio-sanitary informative systems and the record of some outpatient's department. The resulting health condition is similar to that of the general population, with a few epidemiological peculiarities of the origin countries (a larger diffusion of tubercolosys and intestinal parasitosis) and with acute problems typical of populations with high mobility (traumatology, respiratory diseases). Besides, these sources suggest to examine carefully health problems pregnancy and work related. Completeness and quality limits of the informative systems used are then discussed

    On a lemma of Scarf

    No full text
    The aim of this note is to point out some combinatorial applications of a lemma of Scarf, proved first in the context of game theory. The usefulness of the lemma in combinatorics has already been demonstrated in a paper by the first author and R. Holzman (J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 73 (1) (1998) 1) where it was used to prove the existence of fractional kernels in digraphs not containing cyclic triangles. We indicate some links of the lemma to other combinatorial results, both in terms of its statement (being a relative of the Gale–Shapley theorem) and its proof (in which respect it is a kin of Sperner’s lemma). We use the lemma to prove a fractional version of the Gale–Shapley theorem for hypergraphs, which in turn directly implies an extension of this theorem to general (not necessarily bipartite) graphs due to Tan (J. Algorithms 12 (1) (1991) 154). We also prove the following result, related to a theorem of Sands et al. (J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 33 (3) (1982) 271): given a family of partial orders on the same ground set, there exists a system of weights on the vertices, which is (fractionally) independent in all orders, and each vertex is dominated by them in one of the orders

    Abel's lemma on summation by parts and basic hypergeometric series

    No full text
    AbstractBasic hypergeometric series identities are revisited systematically by means of Abel's lemma on summation by parts. Several new formulae and transformations are also established. The author is convinced that Abel's lemma on summation by parts is a natural choice in dealing with basic hypergeometric series
