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.

On the unit group of a commutative group ring
, 2013 We investigate the group of normalized units of the group algebra $\mathbb{Z}_{p^e}G$ of a finite abelian $p$-group $G$ over the ring $\mathbb{Z}_{p^e}$ of residues modulo $p^e$ with $e\geq 1$.Comment: 10 ...

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.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 ...

Rational points on even‐dimensional Fermat cubics
Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.Abstract We show that even‐dimensional Fermat cubic hypersurfaces are rational over any field of characteristic not equal to three, by constructing explicit rational parameterizations with polynomials of low degree. As a byproduct of our rationality constructions, we obtain estimates for the number of their rational points over a number field and ...

Strong-Weak Coupling Duality in Four Dimensional String Theory [PDF]
, 1994 We present several pieces of evidence for strong-weak coupling duality symmetry in the heterotic string theory, compactified on a six dimensional torus.

An extended definition of Anosov representation for relatively hyperbolic groups
Journal of Topology, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.Abstract We define a new family of discrete representations of relatively hyperbolic groups which unifies many existing definitions and examples of geometrically finite behavior in higher rank. The definition includes the relative Anosov representations defined by Kapovich–Leeb and Zhu, and Zhu–Zimmer, as well as holonomy representations of various ...

What If Each Voxel Were Measured With a Different Diffusion Protocol?
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 4, Page 2277-2290, April 2026.ABSTRACT Purpose Expansion of diffusion MRI (dMRI) both into the realm of strong gradients and into accessible imaging with portable low‐field devices brings about the challenge of gradient nonlinearities. Spatial variations of the diffusion gradients make diffusion weightings and directions non‐uniform across the field of view, and deform perfect ...

Relativistic center-vortex dynamics of a confining area law [PDF]
, 2003 We offer a physicists' proof that center-vortex theory requires the area in the Wilson-loop area law to involve an extremal area. Area-law dynamics is determined by integrating over Wilson loops only, not over surface fluctuations for a fixed loop ...

Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 74, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract String theory has strong implications for cosmology, implying the absence of a cosmological constant, ruling out single‐field slow‐roll inflation, and that black holes decay. The origins of these statements are elucidated within the string‐theoretical swampland programme.
