Mathematical foundations of moral preferences [PDF]
One-shot anonymous unselfishness in economic games is commonly explained by social preferences, which assume that people care about the monetary payoffs of others. However, during the last ten years, research has shown that different types of unselfish behaviour, including cooperation, altruism, truth-telling, altruistic punishment, and trustworthiness

Hyperbolic space for tourists [PDF]
We discuss how a creature accustomed to Euclidean space would fare in a world of hyperbolic or spherical geometry, and conversely. Various optical illusions and counterintuitive experiences arise, which can be explicated mathematically using plane models

Mathematical Foundations in Visualization [PDF]
Mathematical concepts and tools have shaped the field of visualization in fundamental ways and played a key role in the development of a large variety of visualization techniques. In this chapter, we sample the visualization literature to provide a taxonomy of the usage of mathematics in visualization, and to identify a fundamental set of mathematics ...

General Decay of the Moore–Gibson–Thompson Equation with Viscoelastic Memory of Type II
This study deals with the general decay of solutions of a new class of Moore–Gibson–Thompson equation with respect to the memory kernel of type II. By using the energy method in the Fourier space, we establish the main results.

Mathematical foundations of consciousness
We employ the Zermelo-Fraenkel Axioms that characterize sets as mathematical primitives. The Anti-foundation Axiom plays a significant role in our development, since among other of its features, its replacement for the Axiom of Foundation in the Zermelo-Fraenkel Axioms motivates Platonic interpretations. These interpretations also depend on such allied
