Minicourse on Geometric and Topological Methods in Concurrency Theory associated to LATIN 2002 Venue: Cancun, Mexico Dates: April 2 - April 6, 2002 Scope of the Minicourse Mathematical methods have always played a significant role in theoretical computer science: Discrete mathematics , in particular graph theory and ordered structures; logics , i.e., proof theory for all kinds of logics, classical, intuitionistic, modal etc.; and category theory , cartesian closed categories, topoi etc., have become undispensable tools. Also general topology has been used for instance in denotational semantics, with relations to ordered structures in particular. Recently, ideas and notions from mainstream geometric and algebraic topology have entered the scene in Concurrency Theory and Distributed Systems Theory. They have been applied in particular to problems dealing with the coordination of multi-processor and distributed systems. Techniques borrowed from higher-dimensional algebraic and geometric topology yield concepts, results and algorithms that seemed unreachable with traditional approaches: Techniques relying on simplicial combinatorial topology have led to new theoretical bounds concerning computability of fault-tolerant distributed protocols.

163. Set Theory And Its Neighbours, Seventh Meeting De Morgan House, London; 25 April 2001. http://www.ucl.ac.uk/~ucahcjm/stn/stn9.html

Set theory and its neighbours , nineth meeting: The nineth one-day conference in the in the series Set theory and its neighbours , took place on Wednesday, 25th April 2001 at the London Mathematical Society building, De Morgan House, 57-58 Russell Square, London WC1. The speakers at the meeting were: Russell Barker (Oxford), Robinson-type relations and the relationship between the k-size and cardinality of finite structures In this talk I will introduce the notions of L^k, the restriction of first order logic to k-variables, the k-size of a model and, two conjectures proposed by Anuj Dawar. Then I shall define define a special kind of relation which I shall call a Robinson-type relation and prove some results about these relations. I shall go on to give a translation between these relations and the set of L^3 theories and then use the earlier results to disprove Dawar's second conjecture. Mirna Dzamonja (UEA), Combinatorial principles that follow from GCH-like cardinal arithmetic assumptions Abstract: We discuss various results showing that at certain cardinals diamond-like principles follow just from local GCH-like assumptions on cardinal arithmetic.

165. Identity Theory [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy] Form of monistic materialism which maintains that mental states and brain activities are identical. http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/i/identity.htm

Identity Theory A family of views on the relationship between mind and body, Type Identity theories hold that at least some types (or kinds, or classes) of mental states are, as a matter of contingent fact, literally identical with some types (or kinds, or classes) of brain states. The earliest advocates of Type IdentityU.T. Place, Herbert Feigl, and J.J.C. Smart, respectivelyeach proposed their own version of the theory in the late 50s-early 60s. But it was not until David Armstrong made the radical claim that all mental states (including intentional ones) are identical with physical states, that philosophers of mind divided themselves into camps over the issue. Over the years, numerous objections have been levied against Type Identity, ranging from epistemological complaints to charges of Leibniz's Law violations to Hilary Putnam's famous pronouncement that mental states are in fact capable of being "multiply realized." Defenders of Type Identity have come up with two basic strategies in response to Putnam's claim: they restrict type identity claims to particular species or structures, or else they extend such claims to allow for the possiblity of

169. Design Theory Workshop PIMS at Simon Fraser University, BC; May 1618, 2001. http://www.pims.math.ca/science/2001/design/

Design Theory: Resolvability and Parallelisms May 16-18, 2001 PIMS at Simon Fraser University East Academic Annex - Seminar Room #1100 Parallel classes and resolvability are two powerful substructures in Combinatorial Design theory. Full and partial Parallel classes are necessary for Wilson's Fundamental construction. Recent generalizations of traditional resolvability are an exciting new area of study and application. There have been two recent generalizations of resolvability to Pairwise Balanced Designs, RRPs where every resolution class is made of of blocks of a fixed size and CURDs where every resolution class is isomorphic as a spanning subgraph of the complete graph. Resolvable packings and partial resolutions have been shown to be powerfully applicable to synchronous uni-polar multi-user communication systems. These exciting recent developments prompt this mini workshop on the subject. The conference is going to be informal, with about three invited talks per day and plenty of time for informal discussion or impromptu presentation. We also hope to give promising graduate students a chance to talk in a comfortable atmosphere. If you have a student who you think would be appropriate then please send us their name so that we may extend an invitation to them. There will also be a conference dinner on Thursday at the Liliget Feast House (Salish Food) it will cost approximately $40 per person but it promises to be a wonderful experience!

Tu Dinh Nguyen - Jonah As Dr. Goldratt notes, the opportunities to make more money through reductions in Inventory and Operating Expense are limited by zero. The opportunities to make more money by increasing Throughput, on the other hand, are unlimited. More than that, though, TOC challenges us to define a goal and re-examine all of our actions and measurements based on how well or how poorly they serve it. This is done through a set of tools including: 1.Goldratt's five focusing steps

175. Duke University Alumni Magazine Article about a theory that all visual perceptions (illusory or otherwise) are an evolved set of behavioral reflexes. http://www.dukemagazine.duke.edu/alumni/dm29/purves.html

TRICKING THE EYE OR TRAPPING A REFLEX ? REVISITING VISION BY DENNIS MEREDITH Optical iconoclasts: Purves, right, and one of his colleagues, Beau Lotto, discovered a new way of looking at visual illusions Experiments with the enigma of optical illusions have led neurobiologist Dale Purves and his colleagues to a controversial new theory of how our brains perceive the visual world. itting in a small, darkened room, Dale Purves stares at a computer screen that displays the image of two blocks stacked one on top of the other (Figure 4). It's obvious to him, as it is to every other human on Earth, that the surfaces of the two blocks are different shades of gray. As the experiment requires, he carefully adjusts the shading on two separate test patches on the screen until he is satisfied that they match the apparent shading difference between the two blocks. But Purves, and everyone else, is dead wrong in their perception. Actually, the surfaces of the two blocks are identical shades. It's a nearly unbelievable fact made startlingly obvious by merely covering the figure's center section, including the line joining them and the light and dark gradients. Ironically, the perceptual "wrongs" in this experiment, and many others exploring such visual illusions, have produced a remarkable scientific "right" a radical new theory of how humans perceive the visual world. Figure 1: In the figure on the left, the eye sees two fictitious bands: one somewhat lighter than the rest of the surface, where the shading begins across the curved surface of the edge of the cube (blue arrow); and one darker, where the shading ends on the side of the cube (red arrow). The bands don't really exist in this computer-generated image. In this illusion, called Mach bands, Purves and colleagues argue that we see the bands based on millions of years of visual experience with real reflective surfaces. The photograph of an actual cube on the right shows such highlights (blue arrow) and lowlights (red arrow) that are typically part of the scenes, and therefore incorporated into our perception.

176. Identity And Individuality In Quantum Theory Assesses the metaphysical implications of quantum theory by considering the impact of the theory on our understanding of objects as individuals with well defined identity conditions. From the Stanford Encyclopedia, by Steven French. http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/qt-idind/

Older browsers and/or operating systems may not display the formatting correctly. last substantive content change FEB Identity and Individuality in Quantum Theory What are the metaphysical implications of quantum physics? One way of approaching this question is to consider the impact of the theory on our understanding of objects as individuals with well defined identity conditions. One view is that quantum theory implies that the fundamental particles of physics cannot be regarded as individual objects in this sense. Such a view has motivated the development of non-standard formal systems which are appropriate for representing such non-individual objects. However, it has also been argued that quantum physics is in fact compatible with a metaphysics of individual objects. Nevertheless, such objects are indistinguishable in a sense which leads to the violation of Leibniz's famous Principle of the Identity of Indiscernibles. Finally, this underdetermination of the metaphysics of individuality by the physics has important implications for the realism-antirealism debate. 1. Introduction

Graph Theory You can contact Stephen C. Locke at LockeS@fau.edu Why I don't want to talk about: Goldbach's Conjecture Index Brief History Basic Definitions If you have a graph theory page, let me know and I might include a link to it from my page for links to other people's files . I won't usually link to commercial pages. Please note also: I have received requests for assistance on problems that are standard undergraduate exercises. The most I will do in these situations is point out the exercise in a standard text (in case the writer doesn't realize that it is a standard problem) or refer the writer to a chapter in a standard textbook. Very Brief History The earliest paper on graph theory seems to be by Leonhard Euler, Solutio problematis ad geometriam situs pertinentis, Commetarii Academiae Scientiarum Imperialis Petropolitanae 8 (1736), 128-140. Euler discusses whether or not it is possible to stroll around Konigsberg (later called Kaliningrad) crossing each of its bridges across the Pregel (later called the Pregolya) exactly once. Euler gave the conditions which are necessary to permit such a stroll. Thomas Pennyngton Kirkman (1856) and William Rowan Hamilton (1856) studied trips which visited certain sites exactly once.
