The erosion of a set in Euclidean space by a radius r > 0 is the subset of X consisting of points at distance ≥ r from the complement of X. A set is resilient to erosion if it is similar to its erosion by some positive radius. We give a somewhat surprising characterization of resilient sets, consisting in one part of simple geometric constraints on convex resilient sets, and, in another, a corr...

The main construction for resilient functions uses linear error-correcting codes; a resilient function constructed in this way is said to be linear. It has been conjectured that if there exists a resilient function, then there exists a linear function with the same parameters. In this note, we construct innnite classes of non-linear resilient functions from the Kerdock and Preparata codes. We a...

We develop a theory of modulus sheaves with transfers, which generalizes Voevodsky's transfers. This paper and its sequel are foundational for the motives modulus, is developed in [KMSY20].

Repair mechanisms are important within resilient systems to maintain the system in an operational state after an error occurred. Usually, constraints on the repair mechanisms are imposed, e.g., concerning the time or resources required (such as energy consumption or other kinds of costs). For systems modeled by Markov decision processes (MDPs), we introduce the concept of resilient schedulers, ...
