Coarse graining is defined in terms of a commutative diagram. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given in the continuously differentiable case. The theory is applied to linear coarse grainings arising from partitioning the population space of a simple Genetic Algorithm (GA). Cases considered include proportional selection, binary tournament selection, ranking selection, and mutation. A non...

Programming by Example (PBE) is the task of inducing computer programs from input-output examples. It can be seen as a type of machine learning where the hypothesis space is the set of legal programs in some programming language. Recent work on differentiable interpreters relaxes the discrete space of programs into a continuous space so that search over programs can be performed using gradient-...

1. Para-f -structures. The notion of a para-f -structure on a differentiable manifold was introduced and studied in [2]. Let M be an n-dimensional differentiable manifold of class C∞. The set of all vector fields on M will be denoted by χ(M) and the tangent space of M at a point m∈M by TmM . Definition 1.1. Let M be an n-dimensional differentiable manifold. If φ is an endomorphism field of cons...

We investigate the recursive structure of differentiable sequences over the alphabet {1, 2}. We derive a recursive formula for the (n + 1)-th symbol of a differentiable sequence, which yields to a new recursive formula for the Kolakoski sequence. Finally, we show that the sequence of absolute differences of consecutive symbols of a differentiable sequence u is a morphic image of the run-length ...

Zaj́ıček has recently shown that for a lower semi-continuous real-valued function on an Asplund space, the set of points where the function is Fréchet subdifferentiable but not Fréchet differentiable is first category. We introduce another variant of Fréchet differentiability, called Fréchet directional differentiability, and show that for any realvalued function on a normed linear space, the se...

on utilizing the spectral representation of selfadjoint operators in hilbert spaces, some error bounds in approximating $n$-time differentiable functions of selfadjoint operators in hilbert spaces via a taylor's type expansion are given.

We consider a family of exchange economies where consumers have multiprior preferences representing their ambiguity aversion. Under a linear independence assumption, we prove that regular economies are generic. Regular economies exhibit enjoyable properties: odd finite number of equilibrium prices, local constancy of this number and local differentiable selections of the equilibrium prices. Thu...
