On Algebraic and Definable Closures for Theories of Abelian Groups

open access: yesИзвестия Иркутского государственного университета: Серия "Математика"
Classifying abelian groups and their elementary theories, a series of characteristics arises that describe certain features of the objects under consideration.

Structure and Computation

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is a truism of mathematics that differences between isomorphic number systems are irrelevant to arithmetic. This truism is deeply rooted in the modern axiomatic method and underlies most strands of arithmetical structuralism, the view that arithmetic is about some abstract number structure.

Divisibility and extension

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper, we address an infamous argument against divisibility that dates back to Zeno. There has been an incredible amount of discussion on how to understand the critical notions of divisibility, extension, and infinite divisibility that are ...

Dogmatism and Easy Knowledge: Avoiding the Dialectic?

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes and objects to the anti‐skeptical strategy endorsed by Epistemological Dogmatism. Dogmatism is a theory of epistemic justification that holds perceptual warrant for our beliefs is immediate, based on experiential seemings. Crucially, it rejects requests for higher‐order justification or active defense of the justification ...

Classical and free infinite divisibility for Boolean stable laws [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We completely determine the free infinite divisibility for the Boolean stable law which is parametrized by a stability index alpha and an asymmetry coefficient rho. We prove that the Boolean stable law is freely infinitely divisible if and only if one of

Experience and Time: A Metaphysical Approach

open access: yesAnalytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What is the temporal structure of conscious experience? While it is popular to think that our most basic conscious experiences are temporally extended, we will be arguing against this view, on the grounds that it makes our conscious experiences depend on the future in an implausible way.

Verbal Metadisputes

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many philosophical disputes have become so intractable that philosophers question whether there is a fact of the matter as to which side is right or whether these disputes are entirely verbal. Yet these “metadisputes” have also become intractable. This raises the question: Could they, too, be verbal? What would that even mean? Using tools from

Extensions, generalizations, characterizations and testing for independence through infinite divisibility

open access: yes, 1982
This dissertation investigates various related topics around the exciting concept: Infinite Divisibility. First, two intricate distributions, namely, the univariate generalized Waring and the hyper-Poisson are proved to be infinitely and noninfinitely ...

A New Divisibility Test for a Class of Integers: The Frey-Hammett Divisibility Test

open access: yes, 2022
The author discusses a recently-discovered divisibility test for the infinite class of integers ending in 1, 3, 7, or 9. He explains how to apply the divisibility test, provides examples, includes an explanation (proof) of why the test works, and ...
