Rethinking Merit in Calvin's Doctrine of the Atonement: Beyond Possessive Individualism
Abstract Joan Lockwood O'Donovan argues that the Reformation doctrine of grace entails a rejection of the proprietary anthropology of self‐owning individuals and its attendant notion of justice – what C. B. Macpherson termed the “theory of possessive individualism.” Although O'Donovan praises Calvin's anthropology and his account of law for its non ...

On Spatial Point Processes With Composition‐Valued Marks
Summary Methods for marked spatial point processes with scalar marks have seen extensive development in recent years. While the impressive progress in data collection and storage capacities has yielded an immense increase in spatial point process data with highly challenging non‐scalar marks, methods for their analysis are not equally well developed ...

Some bounds on commutativity degree
The relative commutativity degree of a subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$, denoted by $\Pr(H, G)$, is the probability that an element of $G$ commutes with an element of $H$. In this article we obtain some lower and upper bounds for $\Pr(H, G)$ and their consequences.

A Note on Local Polynomial Regression for Time Series in Banach Spaces
ABSTRACT This work extends local polynomial regression to Banach space‐valued time series for estimating smoothly varying means and their derivatives in non‐stationary data. The asymptotic properties of both the standard and bias‐reduced Jackknife estimators are analyzed under mild moment conditions, establishing their convergence rates.

Commutativity and Completeness Degrees of Weakly Complete Hypergroups
We introduce a family of hypergroups, called weakly complete, generalizing the construction of complete hypergroups. Starting from a given group G, our construction prescribes the β-classes of the hypergroups and allows some hyperproducts not to be ...

Aggregation and the Structure of Value
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.

The precise value of commutativity degree in some finite groups [PDF]
The commutativity degree of a finite group G, denoted by P(G), is the probability that a selected chosen pair of elements of G commute. The object of this paper is to compute a precise value of commutativity degree of some finite metacyclic p-groups of ...

Some variations of the commutativity degree of some groups and their applications in graph theory [PDF]
Studying the properties of groups based on some probabilistic methods is an appealing branch of research in group theory. It started by investigating commutativity for symmetric groups, and later grew to a massive number of concepts that measure certain ...

The Mathematical History Behind the Granger–Johansen Representation Theorem
ABSTRACT When can a vector time series that is integrated once (i.e., becomes stationary after taking first differences) be described in error correction form? The answer to this is provided by the Granger–Johansen representation theorem. From a mathematical point of view, the theorem can be viewed as essentially a statement concerning the geometry of ...

ABSTRACT Laws play some role in explanations: at the very least, they somehow connect what is explained, or the explanandum, to what explains, or the explanans. Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...
