An efficient VM-based software protection
2011
This paper presents Truly-protect, a system, incorporating a virtual machine, that enables execution of encrypted programs. Our intention is to form a framework for a conditional access/digital rights management system.
Measure-free conditioning and extensions of additive measures on finite MV-algebras
2010
Using the well known representation of any finite MV-algebra as a product of finite MV-chains as factors, we obtain a representation of its canonical extension as a Girard algebra product of the canonical extensions of the MV-chain factors. Based on this representation and using the results from our last paper, we characterize the additive measures on any finite MV-algebra resp. the weakly and the strongly additive measures on its canonical Girard algebra extension, and that as convex combinations of the corresponding measures on the respective factors. After that we apply the results to measure-free defined conditional events which for this reason are considered as elements of the canonica…
Unconditionally convergent multipliers and Bessel sequences
2016
Abstract We prove that every unconditionally summable sequence in a Hilbert space can be factorized as the product of a square summable scalar sequence and a Bessel sequence. Some consequences on the representation of unconditionally convergent multipliers are obtained, thus providing positive answers to a conjecture by Balazs and Stoeva in some particular cases.
Centering and Compound Conditionals under Coherence
2016
There is wide support in logic , philosophy , and psychology for the hypothesis that the probability of the indicative conditional of natural language, \(P(\textit{if } A \textit{ then } B)\), is the conditional probability of B given A, P(B|A). We identify a conditional which is such that \(P(\textit{if } A \textit{ then } B)= P(B|A)\) with de Finetti’s conditional event, B|A. An objection to making this identification in the past was that it appeared unclear how to form compounds and iterations of conditional events. In this paper, we illustrate how to overcome this objection with a probabilistic analysis, based on coherence, of these compounds and iterations. We interpret the compounds a…
Unconditional Basis and Gordon–Lewis Constants for Spaces of Polynomials
2001
Abstract No infinite dimensional Banach space X is known which has the property that for m ⩾2 the Banach space of all continuous m -homogeneous polynomials on X has an unconditional basis. Following a program originally initiated by Gordon and Lewis we study unconditionality in spaces of m -homogeneous polynomials and symmetric tensor products of order m in Banach spaces. We show that for each Banach space X which has a dual with an unconditional basis ( x * i ), the approximable (nuclear) m -homogeneous polynomials on X have an unconditional basis if and only if the monomial basis with respect to ( x * i ) is unconditional. Moreover, we determine an asymptotically correct estimate for the …
Amount of Nonconstructivity in Finite Automata
2009
When D. Hilbert used nonconstructive methods in his famous paper on invariants (1888), P.Gordan tried to prevent the publication of this paper considering these methods as non-mathematical. L. E. J. Brouwer in the early twentieth century initiated intuitionist movement in mathematics. His slogan was "nonconstructive arguments have no value for mathematics". However, P. Erdos got many exciting results in discrete mathematics by nonconstructive methods. It is widely believed that these results either cannot be proved by constructive methods or the proofs would have been prohibitively complicated. R.Freivalds [7] showed that nonconstructive methods in coding theory are related to the notion of…
Existence of Unconditional Bases in Spaces of Polynomials and Holomorphic Functions
2002
Our main result shows that every Montel Kothe echelon or coechelon space E of order 1 < p ≤ ∞ is nuclear if and only if for every (some) m ≥ 2 the space ((mE), τ0) of m-homegeneus polynomials on E endowed with the compact-open topology τ0 has an unconditional basis if and only if the space (ℋ(E), τδ) of holomorphic functions on E endowed with the bornological topology τδ associated to τ0 has an unconditional basis (for coechelon spaces τδ equals τ0). The main idea is to extend the concept of the Gordon-Lewis property from Banach to Frechet and (DF) spaces. In this way we obtain techniques which are used to characterize the existence of unconditional basis in spaces of m-th (symmetric) tenso…
Contractivity results in ordered spaces. Applications to relative operator bounds and projections with norm one
2016
This paper provides various “contractivity” results for linear operators of the form I−C where C are positive contractions on real ordered Banach spaces X. If A generates a positive contraction semigroup in Lebesgue spaces Lp(μ), we show (M. Pierre's result) that A(λ−A)−1 is a “contraction on the positive cone”, i.e. A(λ−A)−1x≤x for all x∈L+p(μ)(λ>0), provided that p⩾2. We show also that this result is not true for 1 ⩽ p<2. We give an extension of M. Pierre's result to general ordered Banach spaces X under a suitable uniform monotony assumption on the duality map on the positive cone X+. We deduce from this result that, in such spaces, I−C is a contraction on X+ for any positive projection…
Probability Propagation in Selected Aristotelian Syllogisms
2019
This paper continues our work on a coherence-based probability semantics for Aristotelian syllogisms (Gilio, Pfeifer, and Sanfilippo, 2016; Pfeifer and Sanfilippo, 2018) by studying Figure III under coherence. We interpret the syllogistic sentence types by suitable conditional probability assessments. Since the probabilistic inference of $P|S$ from the premise set ${P|M, S|M}$ is not informative, we add $p(M|(S ee M))>0$ as a probabilistic constraint (i.e., an ``existential import assumption'') to obtain probabilistic informativeness. We show how to propagate the assigned premise probabilities to the conclusion. Thereby, we give a probabilistic meaning to all syllogisms of Figure~III. We…
