    Congruent families and invariant tensors

    Full text link
    Classical results of Chentsov and Campbell state that -- up to constant multiples -- the only 22-tensor field of a statistical model which is invariant under congruent Markov morphisms is the Fisher metric and the only invariant 33-tensor field is the Amari-Chentsov tensor. We generalize this result for arbitrary degree nn, showing that any family of nn-tensors which is invariant under congruent Markov morphisms is algebraically generated by the canonical tensor fields defined in an earlier paper

    Parametrizing the abstract Ellentuck theorem

    We give a parametrization with perfect sets of the abstract Ellentuck theorem. The main tool for achieving this goal is a sort of parametrization of an abstract version of the Nash-Williams theorem. As corollaries, we obtain some known classical results like the parametrized version of the Galvin-Prikry theorem due to Miller and Todorcevic, and the parametrized version of Ellentuck's theorem due to Pawlikowski. Also, we obtain parametized vesions of nonclassical results such as Milliken's theorem.Comment: 16 pages. Submitted to Elsevier's Discrete Mathematic
