In a seminal paper from 1983, Burr and Erd1⁄2os started the systematic study of Ramsey numbers of cliques vs. large sparse graphs, raising a number of problems. In this paper we develop a new approach to such Ramsey problems using a mix of the Szemerédi regularity lemma, embedding of sparse graphs, Turán type stability, and other structural results. We give exact Ramsey numbers for various clas...

We propose a way to construct consistent generalizations of the Cram er-von Mises test on the line, and the Watson U 2 n test on the circle, based on classes of partitions invariant under various group actions. The framework developed extends our earlier work generalizing the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Kuiper goodness-oft tests, and provides a conceptually unifying description. Many goodness-oft te...

Sterba’s Is a Good God Logically Possible? (2019) draws attention to the importance of ethical assumptions in ‘logical’ arguments from evil (LAfEs) effect that existence (certain types) is incompatible with who all-powerful and morally perfect. I argue, first, such are likely succeed only when ‘normatively relativized’—that is, based on about divine goodness may be subject deep disagreement. th...

We address the question 'how to measure goodness of time-processor optimal PRAM simulations'. Instead of measuring only the asymptotic complexity of simulation time, we attempt to take into account all aspects of simulations exactly. We present a goodness function framework and propose a generic function for measuring the goodness.

In the search for statistical dependency rules, a crucial task is to restrict the search space by estimating upper bounds for the goodness of yet undiscovered rules. In this paper, we show that all well-behaving goodness measures achieve their maximal values in the same points. Therefore, the same generic search strategy can be applied with any of these measures. The notion of well-behaving mea...

The analysis proposes a reduction of one moral concept (the concept of what we ought to do) to another pair of moral concepts (the concepts of goodness and badness). In order to fully understand the concept of what we ought to do, we must therefore combine the proposed analysis with an account of the nature of goodness and badness. Moore combines the analysis with his distinctive view of goodne...

A fundamental issue that arises after fitting a regression model is that of testing the goodness of the fit. Our work brings together the power divergence family of goodness of fit tests and regression models for categorical time series. We show that under some reasonable assumptions, the asymptotic distribution of the power divergence family of goodness of fit tests converges to a normal rando...

The present article aims to examine Isaiah Berlin's views and ideas, and gives answers to the questions of how political goodness is linked to the concept of negative liberty in Berlin's thought,  and how his view of political goodness has formed his critique looking toward the political system of the Soviet Union. Political goodness in Berlin's thought seems to be multiplied, and from the plur...
