A Generalisation of Goursat's Algorithm for Integration in Finite Terms

Sam Blake · 2026

We give a self-contained, modern exposition of \'Edouard Goursat's 1887 theorem on pseudo-elliptic integrals -- those integrals of the form $\int F(t)\,\d t/\sqrt{R(t)}$ with $R$ a cubic or quartic po…

Why Self-Supervised Encoders Want to Be Normal

Yuval Domb · 2026

We develop a geometric and information-theoretic framework for encoder-decoder learning built on the Information Bottleneck (IB) principle. Recasting IB as a rate-distortion problem with Kullback-Leib…
