This complements the work of [2] on the construction of scales of minimal complexity on sets of reals in K(R). Theorem 0.1 was proved there under the stronger hypothesis that all sets definable over M are determined, although without the capturing hypothesis. (See [2, Theorem 4.14].) Unfortunately, this is more determinacy than would be available as an induction hypothesis in a core model induc...

Starting from a logic which speciies how to make deductions from a set of sentences (a ``at theory'), a way to generalise this to a partially ordered bag of sentences (a `structured theory') is given. The partial order is used to resolve connicts. If occurs below then is accepted only insofar as it does not connict with. We start with a language L, a set of interpretations M and a satisfaction ...

Quantum temporal peculiarities, involving ordinary and weak measurements, are explored. We introduce the foundations of weak measurement and outline some novel theoretical and experimental predictions derived from it. We then show how weak values, which explicitly depend on both forward and backward evolving state-vectors, can serve as important tools for gaining new insights into the nature of...

Power-Recycled Weak-Value-Based Metrology Report Title We improve the precision of the interferometric weak-value-based beam deflection measurement by introducing a power recycling mirror, creating a resonant cavity. This results in all the light exiting to the detector with a large deflection, thus eliminating the inefficiency of the rare postselection. The signal-tonoise ratio of the deflecti...

A new weak measurement procedure is introduced for finite samples which yields accurate weak values that are outside the range of eigenvalues and which do not require an exponentially rare ensemble. This procedure provides a unique advantage in the amplification of small non-random signals by minimizing uncertainties in determining the weak value and by minimizing sample size. This procedure ca...

Avila and Molina [1] introduced the notion of generalized weak structures which naturally generalize minimal structures, generalized topologies and weak structures and the structures α(g),π(g),σ(g) and β(g). This work is a further investigation of generalized weak structures due to Avila and Molina. Further we introduce the structures ro(g) and rc(g) and study the properties of the structures r...

In this paper we describe the range of values that can be taken by the fractional weak discrepancy of a poset subject to forbidden r+ s configurations, where r+s = 4. Generalizing previous work on weak discrepancy in [5, 12, 13], the notion of fractional weak discrepancy wdF (P ) of a poset P = (V,≺) was introduced in [7] as the minimum nonnegative k for which there exists a function f : V → R ...

The Fudenberg and Maskin folk theorem for discounted repeated games assumes that the set of feasible payoffs is full dimensional . We obtain the same conclusion using a weaker condition. This condition is that no pair of players has equivalent von Neumann-Morgenstern utilities over outcomes. We term this condition NEU ("non-equivalent utilities"). The condition is weak, easily interpreted, and ...

We deene a property of substructures of models of arithmetic, that of being length-initial , and show that sharply bounded formulae are absolute between a model and its length-initial submodels. We use this to prove independence results for some weak fragments of bounded arithmetic by constructing appropriate models as length-initial submodels of some given model.

In many practical situations, we are not satisfied with the accuracy of the existing measurements. There are two possible ways to improve the measurement accuracy: • first, instead of a single measurement, we can make repeated measurements; the additional information coming from these additional measurements can improve the accuracy of the result of this series of measurements; • second, we can...
