Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT It is a truism of mathematics that differences between isomorphic number systems are irrelevant to arithmetic. This truism is deeply rooted in the modern axiomatic method and underlies most strands of arithmetical structuralism, the view that arithmetic is about some abstract number structure.

Aggregation and the Structure of Value
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Latent Complete-Lattice Structure of Hilbert-Space Projectors
Quanta, 2019 To uncover the hidden complete-lattice structure of Hilbert-space projectors, which is not seen by the operator operations and relations (algebraically), resort is taken to the ranges of projectors (to subspaces—to geometry).

Beyond Substitution—An Antipositionalist's Guide to Subtraction—
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Existing accounts of relations do not properly account for variably polyadic relations: they fail to capture the relationship between completions of the same relation by different numbers of relata. This paper develops a fully general account of such relations by adding an operation of subtraction to the antipositionalist theory of relations ...

Gog and Magog triangles, and the Schutzenberger involution
, 2011 We describe an approach to finding a bijection between Alternating Sign Matrices and Totally Symmetric Self-Complementary Plane Partitions, which is based on the Schutzenberger involution. In particular we give an explicit bijection between Gog and Magog

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Determinism is (roughly) the thesis that the past determines the future. But efforts to define it precisely have exposed deep methodological disagreements. Standard possible‐worlds formulations of determinism presuppose an “agreement” relation between worlds, but this relation can be understood in multiple ways, none of which is particularly ...

On computing local monodromy and the numerical local irreducible decomposition
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract Similarly to the global case, the local structure of a holomorphic subvariety at a given point is described by its local irreducible decomposition. Geometrically, the key requirement for obtaining a local irreducible decomposition is to compute the local monodromy action of a generic linear projection at the given point, which is always well ...
