The question of when the Bergman projection Pω​ induced by a radial
weight ω on the unit disc is a bounded operator from one space into
another is of primordial importance in the theory of Bergman spaces. The
long-standing pro...

We introduce the package Binsreg, which implements the binscatter methods
developed by Cattaneo, Crump, Farrell, and Feng (2024b,a). The package includes
seven commands: binsreg, binslogit, binsprobit, binsqreg, binstest, binspwc,
and binsr...

Binscatter is a popular method for visualizing bivariate relationships and
conducting informal specification testing. We study the properties of this
method formally and develop enhanced visualization and econometric binscatter
tools. These...

Information Theory
The elementary theory of bivariate linear Diophantine equations over
polynomial rings is used to construct causal lifting factorizations for causal
two-channel FIR perfect reconstruction filter banks and wavelet transforms. The
Diophantine ...

A ribbon is a non-reduced curve modelled on the first infinitesimal
neighbourhood of a smooth curve in a surface. This paper is devoted to describe
some properties of coherent sheaves on such a curve and their Simpson moduli
space. In parti...

The medical field is creating large amount of data that physicians are unable
to decipher and use efficiently. Moreover, rule-based expert systems are
inefficient in solving complicated medical tasks or for creating insights using
big data....

JavaScript Object Notation or JSON is a ubiquitous data exchange format on
the Web. Ingesting JSON documents can become a performance bottleneck due to
the sheer volume of data. We are thus motivated to make JSON parsing as fast as
possible...

We provide an integral combinatorial characterization of pseudo-Anosov maps

Eliciting ambiguity with mixing bets

Preferences for mixing can reveal ambiguity perception and attitude on a
single event. The validity of the approach is discussed for multiple preference
classes including maxmin, maxmax, variational, and smooth second-order
preferences. An ...
