, 2018 The article puts forward a branching - style framework for the analysis of determinism and indeterminism of scientific theories, starting from the core idea that an indeterministic system is one whose present allows for more than one alternative possible

“Free Will and Affirmation: Assessing Honderich’s Third Way” [PDF]
, 2017 In the third and final part of his A Theory of Determinism (TD) Ted Honderich addresses the fundamental question concerning “the consequences of determinism.” The critical question he aims to answer is what follows if determinism is true?

The octagon as a determinant [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 Abstract The computation of a certain class of four-point functions of heavily charged BPS operators boils down to the computation of a special form factor — the octagon. In this paper, which is an extended version of the short note [1], we derive a non-perturbative formula for the square of the octagon as the determinant of a semi-

Denotational, Causal, and Operational Determinism in Event Structures [PDF]
, 1995 Determinism is a theoretically and practically important concept in labelled transition systems and trees. We study its generalisation to event structures.

Determinism and inevitability [PDF]
, 2006 In Freedom Evolves, Dan Dennett embarks on his second book-length attempt to lay to rest the deep metaphysical concerns that many philosophers have expressed about the possibility of human freedom.One of his main objectives in the earlier chapters of the

Black-Hole Uncertainty Entails an Intrinsic Time Arrow. a Note on the Hawking-Penrose Controversy [PDF]
, 1999 Any theory that states that the basic laws of physics are time-symmetric must be strictly deterministic. Only determinism enables time reversal of entropy increase. A contradiction therefore arises between two statements of Hawking.

Contexts, refinement and determinism [PDF]
, 2010 In this paper we have been influenced by those who take an “engineering view” of the problem of designing systems, i.e. a view that is motivated by what someone designing a real system will be concerned with, and what questions will arise as they work on

Quantum Theory and Determinism [PDF]
, 2014 Historically, appearance of the quantum theory led to a prevailing view that Nature is indeterministic. The arguments for the indeterminism and proposals for indeterministic and deterministic approaches are reviewed.
