چکیده

Every complete first order theory has a corresponding complete theory in continuous logic, called the randomization theory. It has two sorts, a sort for random elements of models of the first order theory, and a sort for events. In this paper we establish connections between properties of countable models of a first order theory and corresponding properties of separable models of the randomization theory. We show that the randomization theory has a prime model if and only if the first order theory has a prime model. And the randomization theory has the same number of separable homogeneous models as the first order theory has countable homogeneous models. We also show that when T has at most countably many countable models, each separable model of T is uniquely characterized by a probability density function on the set of isomorphism types of countable models of T . This yields an analogue for randomizations of the results of Baldwin and Lachlan on countable models of ω1-categorical first order theories.

Scattered Sentences Have Few Separable Randomizations

In the paper Randomizations of Scattered Sentences, Keisler showed that if Martin’s axiom for aleph one holds, then every scattered sentence has few separable randomizations, and asked whether the conclusion could be proved in ZFC alone. We show here that the answer is “yes”. It follows that the absolute Vaught conjecture holds if and only if every Lω1ω-sentence with few separable randomization...

Chapter 5 Distances between statistical models

SECTION 1 explains why randomizations in the Le Cam sense have advantages over Markov kernels for the definition of the Le Cam distance between statistical models. SECTION 2 derives several facts about linear functionals, the most important being the existence of a linear map that projects onto the space of countably additive measures. SECTION 3 uses the projection map from Section 2, and compa...

Randomizing a Model

A randomization of a first order structure M is a new structure with certain closure properties whose universe is a set K of “random elements” of M. Randomizations assign probabilities to sentences of the language of M with new constants from K. Our main theorem shows that all randomizations of M are models of the same first order theory T , which has a nice set of axioms and admits elimination...

Optimal multivariate matching before randomization.

Although blocking or pairing before randomization is a basic principle of experimental design, the principle is almost invariably applied to at most one or two blocking variables. Here, we discuss the use of optimal multivariate matching prior to randomization to improve covariate balance for many variables at the same time, presenting an algorithm and a case-study of its performance. The metho...

Multiplication operators on Banach modules over spectrally separable algebras

‎Let $mathcal{A}$ be a commutative Banach algebra and $mathscr{X}$ be a left Banach $mathcal{A}$-module‎. ‎We study the set‎ ‎${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathscr{X})$ of all elements in $mathcal{A}$ which induce a decomposable multiplication operator on $mathscr{X}$‎. ‎In the case $mathscr{X}=mathcal{A}$‎, ‎${rm Dec}_{mathcal{A}}(mathcal{A})$ is the well-known Apostol algebra of $mathcal{A}$‎. ‎We s...
