Papadakis, Ioannis N. M. "On the Universal Encoding Optimality of Primes." Mathematics 9, no. 24 (December 7, 2021): 3155. http://dx.doi.org/10.3390/math9243155.

Abstract:
The factorial-additive optimality of primes, i.e., that the sum of prime factors is always minimum, implies that prime numbers are a solution to an integer linear programming (ILP) encoding optimization problem. The summative optimality of primes follows from Goldbach’s conjecture, and is viewed as an upper efficiency limit for encoding any integer with the fewest possible additions. A consequence of the above is that primes optimally encode—multiplicatively and additively—all integers. Thus, the set P of primes is the unique, irreducible subset of ℤ—in cardinality and values—that optimally encodes all numbers in ℤ, in a factorial and summative sense. Based on these dual irreducibility/optimality properties of P, we conclude that primes are characterized by a universal “quantum type” encoding optimality that also extends to non-integers.

Abstract:
In this work, the local optimality of mixed reliability of networks is surveyed. A reliability comparison criterion related with subgraphs to measure the local optimality of the mixed reliability of networks is established. Using the comparison criterion, we characterize all locally optimally mixed reliable networks among all n-vertex networks with fixed sizes m=n, m=n+1 and m=n+2, respectively.

Abstract:
It is known that A* is optimal with respect to the expanded nodes (Dechter and Pearl 1985) (D&P). The exact meaning of this optimality varies depending on the class of algorithms and instances over which A* is claimed to be optimal. A* does not provide any optimality guarantees with respect to the generated nodes. However, such guarantees may be critical for optimally solving instances of domains with a large branching factor. In this paper, we introduce two new variants of the recently introduced Enhanced Partial Expansion A* algorithm (EPEA*) (Felner et al. 2012). We leverage the results of D&P to show that these variants possess optimality with respect to the generated nodes in much the same sense as A* possesses optimality with respect to the expanded nodes. The results in this paper are theoretical. A study of the practical performance of the new variants is beyond the scope of this paper.

Abstract:
The article aims to give an overview about the application of Optimality Theory (OT) to the domain of pragmatics. In the introductory part we discuss different ways to view the division of labor between semantics and pragmatics. Rejecting the doctrine of literal meaning we conform to (i) semantic underdetermination and (ii) contextualism (the idea that the mechanism of pragmatic interpretation is crucial both for determining what the speaker says and what he means). Taking the assumptions (i) and (ii) as essential requisites for a natural theory of pragmatic interpretation, section 2 introduces the three main views conforming to these assumptions: Relevance theory, Levinson’s theory of presumptive meanings, and the Neo-Gricean approach. In section 3 we explain the general paradigm of OT and the idea of bidirectional optimization. We show how the idea of optimal interpretation can be used to restructure the core ideas of these three different approaches. Further, we argue that bidirectional OT has the potential to account both for the synchronic and the diachronic perspective on pragmatic interpretation. Section 4 lists relevant examples of using the framework of bidirectional optimization in the domain of pragmatics. Section 5 provides some general conclusions. Modeling both for the synchronic and the diachronic perspective on pragmatics opens the way for a deeper understanding of the idea of naturalization and (cultural) embodiment in the context of natural language interpretation.

Abstract:
Abstract Optimality conditions for optimal control problems arising in network modeling are discussed. We confine ourselves to the steady state network models. Therefore, we consider only control systems described by ordinary differential equations. First, we derive optimality conditions for the nonlinear problem for a single beam. These conditions are formulated in terms of the local Pontryagin maximum principle and the matrix Riccati equation. Then, the optimality conditions for the control problem for networks posed on an arbitrary planar graph are discussed. This problem has a set of independent variables x i varying within their intervals [0, l i], associated with the corresponding beams at network edges. The lengths l i of intervals are not specified and must be determined. So, the optimization problem is non-standard, it is a combination of control and design of networks. However, using a linear change of the independent variables, it can be reduced to a standard one, and we show this. Two simple numerical examples for the single-beam problem are considered.

Abstract:
AbstractA key characteristic of cancer cells is their increased proliferative capacity, which requires elevated levels of protein synthesis. The process of protein synthesis involves the translation of codons within the mRNA coding sequence into a string of amino acids to form a polypeptide chain. As most amino acids are encoded by multiple codons, the nucleotide sequence of a coding region can vary dramatically without altering the polypeptide sequence of the encoded protein. Although mutations that do not alter the final amino acid sequence are often thought of as silent/synonymous, these can still have dramatic effects on protein output. Because each codon has a distinct translation elongation rate and can differentially impact mRNA stability, each codon has a different degree of ‘optimality’ for protein synthesis. Recent data demonstrates that the codon preference of a transcriptome matches the abundance of tRNAs within the cell and that this supply and demand between tRNAs and mRNAs varies between different cell types. The largest observed distinction is between mRNAs encoding proteins associated with proliferation or differentiation. Nevertheless, precisely how codon optimality and tRNA expression levels regulate cell fate decisions and their role in malignancy is not fully understood. This review describes the current mechanistic understanding on codon optimality, its role in malignancy and discusses the potential to target codon optimality therapeutically in the context of cancer.

Abstract:
Expected consumer's surplus rarely represents preferences over price lotteries. Still, I give sufficient conditions for policies which maximize aggregate expected surplus to be interim Pareto Optimal. Besides two standard partial equilibrium conditions, I assume that feasible prices satisfy a single-crossing property; and each consumer's indirect utility satisfies increasing differences in the price and income. I use the result to extend well-known welfare conclusions beyond the knife-edge quasilinear utility case. Since increasing differences puts no upper bound on risk aversion, the result is useful for applications in which risk aversion is important. (JEL D11, D24, D42, D81, D83, L42)

Abstract:
In this article we show how Optimality Theory yields a highly general Constraint Demotion principle for grammar learning. The resulting learning procedure specifically exploits the grammatical structure of Optimality Theory, independent of the content of substantive constraints defining any given grammatical module. We decompose the learning problem and present formal results for a central subproblem, deducing the constraint ranking particular to a target language, given structural descriptions of positive examples. The structure imposed on the space of possible grammars by Optimality Theory allows efficient convergence to a correct grammar. We discuss implications for learning from overt data only, as well as other learning issues. We argue that Optimality Theory promotes confluence of the demands of more effective learnability and deeper linguistic explanation.

The paper offers an account of coordination within the framework of Optimality Theory, which makes use of violable and ranked constraints. Coordination is explained with the help of nine constraints, seven of which are needed in the theory independently of coordination, while the remaining two are coordination-specific constraints. Related phenomena of Unbalanced Coordination and Extraordinary Balanced Coordination are also discussed and differences among Norwegian, English and Hungarian are explained by the difference in the relative ranking of the four relevant constraints.
