Constructive Many-Body Theory

Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 1994
We review the rôle played by renormalization, particle-number symmetry breaking, Goldstone bosons and the renormalization group in a mathematically rigorous construction of many-Fermion models at temperature zero.

Constructive Order Theory

MLQ, 2001
An upper bound \(s\) of a subset \(Y\) of a poset \(P\) is called a constructive supremum of \(Y\) if there exists a function \(\psi: P\to Y\) such that \(s\leq x\Leftrightarrow \psi(x)\leq x\) for all \(x\in P\). It is proved that the axiom of choice is equivalent to the postulate that every supremum is constructive, and also to the hypothesis that ...

A Personalized Theory of Theory Construction

Personality and Social Psychology Review, 2004
This article describes my personal approach to theory construction. I liken the construction of a theory to the solution of a mathematical puzzle in which the answer is not in the back of the book. I touch on (a) the development of a theoretical perspective, (b) the identification of a specific problem, and (c) the development of a theory to address ...

De/Constructing Theory

Journal of Management Inquiry, 2000
The purpose of this article is to understand and illustrate how the development of theories is influenced in part through dominant paradigms, in part through citation patterns, and in part through the norms of scientific writing. An example that is developed is the use of deconstruction to illustrate how institutional theory, with its interpretive ...

THEORY-CONSTRUCTION AND THEORY-TESTING

The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 1958
I wish to defend 'the dictionary view' of scientific theories against Miss Hesse's attack and to argue that she has insufficiently considered her assertion that phenomenal statements do not 'constitute a basic empirical language which is independent of all theory'.

Constructing Architectural Theory

Philosophy, 2003
Architectural theory arises from building, when the mind considers its symbolic relations to its own constructions. The intent of this essay is to discuss the intellectual causes that precede building and precede theory. It considers certain fundamental dualities in our thinking about architecture—such as image and word; type and model; imitation ...

Constructive set theory

Journal of Symbolic Logic, 1975
This paper is the third in a series collectively entitled Formal systems of intuitionistic analysis. The first two are [4] and [5] in the bibliography; in them I attempted to codify Brouwer's mathematical practice. In the present paper, which is independent of [4] and [5], I shall do the same for Bishop's book [1].

Personal Construct Theory

2020
The originator of the theory, George Kelly, is introduced and the basic concepts used in his psychology are outlined, including the Fundamental Postulate, the eleven corollaries, professional diagnostic constructs, and the cycles of construing.

Constructive Gauge Theory

1986
Here we provide some insight into mathematical methods to analyze quantized gauge theories. This approach is being used to establish existence as well as to prove properties of gauge field models. Up to now, only abelian gauge fields are known to exist, namely the U(1) Higgs model on ℝ2 and ℝ3 and electrodynamics on the tori T2 and T3.
