Abstract

All intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS methods contain two key elements: (1) the order structure, which can affect the choices of positive ideal-points and negative ideal-points, and construction of admissible distance/similarity measures; (2) the distance/similarity measure, which is closely related to the values of the relative closeness degrees and determines the accuracy and rationality of decision-making. For the order structure, many efforts are devoted to constructing some score functions, which can strictly distinguish different intuitionistic fuzzy values (IFVs) and preserve the natural partial order for IFVs.This paper proves that such a score function does not exist, namely the application of a single monotonous and continuous function does not distinguish all IFVs. For the distance or similarity measure, some examples are given to show that classical similarity measures based on the normalized Euclidean distance and normalized Minkowski distance do not meet the axiomatic definition of intuitionistic fuzzy similarity measures. Moreover,some illustrative examples are given to show that classical intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS methods do not ensure the monotonicity with the natural partial order or linear orders, which may yield some counter-intuitive results. To overcome the limitation of non-monotonicity, we propose a novel intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method,using three new admissible distances with the linear orders measured by a score degree/similarity function and accuracy degree, or two aggregation functions, and prove that the proposed TOPSIS method is monotonous under these three linear orders.} This is the first result with a strict mathematical proof on the monotonicity with the linear orders for the intuitionistic fuzzy TOPSIS method.

On Hilbert's 8th Problem

This note takes the probabilistic half of the Riemann Xi story on its own terms. Every object in the subject is a first passage time: Riemann's kernel is the law of the logarithm of a sum of two hitting times of a three dimensional Bessel process, Polya's approximation is the first passage of a Brownian motion with drift, and the reciprocal Xi function, under the Riemann hypothesis, is the Laplace transform of an infinite convolution of exponentials whose rates are the squared zeros. That reciprocal is written as $F_α(s)=ξ(α)/ξ(α+\sqrt s)$, and complete monotonicity, unconditional for $α\ge1$, is conjectured to persist to the critical basepoint $α=1/2$. Kent's eigenvalue expansion says which laws can arise this way, namely those whose Thorin measure is a Dirichlet spectrum with unit atoms, and Krein's inverse spectral theory turns the hypothesis into the existence of a string. The passage from Riemann to Polya is a flow, not a jump: the Cauchy semigroup on Thorin measures, each step an Esscher tilt followed by a Brownian subordination along a curvature family of hyperbolic Bessel processes, with the arithmetic surviving as Fourier modes damped like $e^{-2πk\varepsilon}$. The arithmetic lives in the atoms and nowhere else. Approximations rank by what they keep: Polya keeps neither atoms nor tempering and is off by a factor of three, a fitted Bessel dimension reaches one per cent, and a few atoms with an erfc tempering stay better than one part in a thousand across four decades. And the flow runs backwards: the Thorin measure of the reciprocal is evaluated from a prime sieve with no reference to any zero, and nonnegative deconvolution of it returns the first ten zero ordinates with unit masses, nine of them to four decimals and one to three. All identities are verified with mpmath, and the scripts are included.

Dynamical Geometry of Principal Bundle Constrained Systems: Compatible Pairs, Contact Degeneration, and Adapted Metrics

We study invariant codimension-one constraints on principal bundles through compatible pairs: a constraint distribution and a nonzero coadjoint field parallel for a principal connection. Pairing the field with the connection gives an invariant one-form whose Levi form separates a horizontal curvature contribution from a vertical coadjoint-orbit contribution. This decomposition yields criteria for integrability, contactness, and characteristic reduction; holonomy and stabilizer reductions describe global existence. For evolving compatible pairs, we identify the mixed-curvature obstruction to compatibility and prove that connection transport preserves the Levi geometry. For initially contact data over a closed base of dimension $2n$, we establish matching bounds for the quadratic $H^{n+1}$ cost of contact degeneration: making the paired curvature vanish on a Darboux ball of radius $r$ in time $T$ costs an amount comparable to $[T\log(R_*/r)]^{-1}$. The constructed paths remain contact before $T$, preserve the curvature class, and force the $L^\infty$ norm of every transporting velocity gradient to grow at least as $1/[2(T-t)]$ on the collapsing region in Darboux coordinates. On a closed three-manifold, a contact form preserved by a locally free circle action admits an invariant adapted metric with any prescribed positive curl eigenvalue and unit circle generator. We parametrize all such metrics and prove that their space is contractible. Along the circle-bundle degeneration paths, every continuous tensor limit of normalized adapted metrics is degenerate above the collapsing region.
