Hilbert’s original aim, to show the consistency of the use of such ideal elements by finitistic means, which would suffice to eliminate these ideal elements from proofs of purely universal (‘real’) theorems (‘Hilbert’s program’), turned out to be impossible for theories containing a sufficient amount of number theory by K. Gödel’s 2nd incompleteness theorem. Nevetheless, various partial realiza...

On Bayes Tests for p ~ i Versus p > i :

Few if any obtain a measure of success in their chosen profession without the beneficent influence of others. The first author is no exception. His interest in optimal stopping problems was ignited as a student in 1965 when Professor Robbins was visiting the University of Minnesota. Perhaps a fitting way of expressing appreciation would be to use this occasion to introduce the second author, Xi...

[N,N-Bis(diphenyl­phosphino)propyl­amine-κ2 P,P]bromidotricarbonyl­rhenium(I)

In the title compound, [ReBr(C(27)H(27)NP(2))(CO)(3)], the Re(I) atom is octa-hedrally surrounded by three carbonyl ligands in a facial arrangement, a bromide ligand and the P,P'-bidentate ligand Bis(diphenyl-phosphino)propyl-amine. The compound exhibits substitutional disorder of the bromide ligand and the axial carbonyl ligand, with almost 50% occupancy for both Br amd CO [0.538 (4) and 0.462...

UM–P–95/51 [p, q] ̸ = i¯h

In this short note, I point out that [p, q] 6= ih̄, contrary to the original claims of Born and Jordan, and Dirac. Rather, [p, q] is equal to something that is infinitesimally different from ih̄. While this difference is usually harmless, it does provide the solution of the Born–Jordan “trace paradox” of [p, q]. More recently, subtleties of a very similar form have been found to be of fundamental...
