SUMMARY:All elementary functions from a single binary operator
DTSTAMP:20260430T144232Z
DTSTART:20260522T125000Z
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nWhile a single two-input NAND gate suffices for a
	ll of Boolean logic in digital hardware\, no comparable primitive has been
	 previously known for symbolic mathematics: Computing elementary functions
	 such as sin\, cos\, sqrt\, and log has always required multiple distinct 
	operations. In this talk Dr. hab. Andrzej Odrzywołek will discuss the cons
	equences of the discovery that a single binary operator\, eml(x\,y)=exp(x)
	-ln(y)\, together with the constant 1\, generates the standard repertoire 
	of a scientific calculator. In EML (Exp-Minus-Log) form\, every such expre
	ssion becomes a binary tree of identical nodes\, yielding a grammar as sim
	ple as S -> 1 | eml(S\,S). This uniform structure also enables gradient-ba
	sed symbolic regression\, using EML trees as trainable sub-circuits. He wi
	ll also discuss related exhaustive search methods\, the rationale behind t
	hem\, and common misconceptions that surfaced after the result went viral 
	on social media.\n--------------------------------\n\nSpeaker:\n- Andrzej
