Virus community spread mathematical modeling
There is actually a very simple model that works reasonably well over time periods with little change. No model can work across all time periods because various communities (or cities) change their be …

Is there a three valued logic whose game semantics corresponds to potentially infinite games?
Why doesn't Kleene's 3-valued logic (with quantifiers) correspond to such games? It already does! A $∀x\ ( Q(x) )$ node goes to an $∃x\ ( ¬Q(x) )$ opponent node, and an $∃x\ ( Q(x) )$ node goes to one …

Three squares in a rectangle
Partial solution
Let the rectangle R have the longer side horizontal. It is easy to prove that you can label the squares A,B,C such that A can be shifted (i.e. translated) all the way to the left with …

$π(x+y) - π(x) ≤ c·y/\ln(y)$ for some constant $c$?
(I posted this question on Math SE but it has had no answer for a year now so I would like to ask if anyone here can provide one.)
Thinking about the prime number theorem, I wondered whether it is kno …

$\def\f#1{\text{#1}}$Does $\f{ACA}$ prove that any two internally complete ordered fields are isomorphic?
Here internal completeness is expressed roughly as "every sequence of reals with an upper boun …

Revisiting the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics
I'm not sure why it has not yet been pointed out that all known applications of mathematics to explain or predict phenomena in the real world only rely on a very weak part of mathematics. For example, …
