Free will and believing in determinism
, 2023 The article addresses the issue of free will and determinism through a discussion of Newcomb’s paradox, presented as a dialogue between the spirits of Lady Luck and Fate.

Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in ProgrammingBinary multirelations can model alternating nondeterminism, for instance, in games or nondeterministically evolving systems interacting with an environment. Such systems can show partial or total functional behaviour at both levels of alternation, so that nondeterministic behaviour may occur only at one level or both levels, or not at all.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This paper presents a digital microfluidics‐based technique for transferring and reconfiguring soft nanomembranes. Laser‐machined nanothin membranes are picked up, transported, and aligned via tailored surface tension and the actuation of water droplets, enabling the development of flexible electronics, the integration of functional materials on 3D ...

The Mayans: Climate determinism or geomagnetic determinism? [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2007 Climatic variations since the end of the last ice age have been large enough to influence the fate of ancient civilizations, and deciphering the exact role of climate in the history of old societies is an active and challenging domain of research [e.g., deMenocal, 2001]. This potential influence, which serves as the foundation of ‘climate determinism,’

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Field‐free spin‐orbit torque domain‐wall synapses integrated with stochastic MTJ neurons enable compact hardware Boltzmann machines. Leveraging intrinsic stochasticity and multi‐level conductance, the system achieves efficient probabilistic learning with high accuracy, demonstrating a scalable spintronic platform for energy‐efficient edge AI.

The Fearless Vampire Conservator: Phillip Kitcher and Genetic Determinism [PDF]
, 2002 Genetic determinism is the idea that many significant human characteristics are rendered inevitable by the presence of certain genes. The psychologist Susan Oyama has famously compared arguing against genetic determinism to battling the undead.

Determinism and non-determinism in PDL
Theoretical Computer Science, 1991 In a previous paper of the author it is proven that if we add the iteration to SPDL (strict propositional dynamic logic) then the new system has the same expressive power as PDL (propositional dynamic logic). Under review the case of nondeterminism is studied.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A fully programmable, dual‐inductive switchable halide perovskite memristor is demonstrated through precise BDAI2‐mediated interface engineering. This ion‐modulating layer suppresses stochastic filamentary growth, enabling stable, non‐filamentary switching via dynamic barrier modulation.

Expressing a fraction of two determinants as a determinant [PDF]
Proceedings of the twenty-first international symposium on Symbolic and algebraic computation, 2008 Suppose the polynomials f and g in K[x1,...,xr] over the field K are determinants of non-singular m x m and n x n matrices, respectively, whose entries are in K ∪ x1,...,xr. Furthermore, suppose h = f/g is a polynomial in K[x1,..., xr]. We construct an s x s matrix C whose entries are in K ∪ x1,...,xr, such that h = det(C) and s = γ (m+n)6, where γ = O(
