[0809.3066] Some Notes on Standard Borel and Related Spaces (Chris Preston)
january 2010 by mraginsky
"These notes give an elementary approach to parts of the theory of standard Borel and analytic spaces." Useful stuff, seeing as how the machinery of analytic sets and standard Borel spaces is used to justify the manipulations with suprema over uncountable sets in the theory of empirical processes, as well as the reduction of partially observed MDPs in general spaces to fully observed MDPs on the space of hyperstates.

Marx, Mao and Mathematics: The Politics of Infinitesimals (by Joseph W. Dauben)
may 2009 by mraginsky
From the abstract: "[Marx] regarded questions about the foundations of the differential calculus as a "touchstone of the application of the method of materialist dialectics to mathematics." Nearly a century later, Chinese mathematicians explicitly linked Marxist ideology and the foundations of mathematics through a new program interpreting calculus in terms of nonstandard analysis."
