Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society, 2006 A lemma of Tits establishes a connection between the simple connectivity of an incidence geometry and the universal completion of an amalgam induced by a sufficiently transitive group of automorphisms of that geometry. In the present paper, we generalize this lemma to intransitive geometries, thus opening the door for numerous applications.

The integration of contact by impact verbs into the intransitive motion construction
Círculo de Lingüística Aplicada a la Comunicación, 2015 The present investigation will analyze the lexical-constructional integration of contact by impact verbs (transitive by origin) into the intransitive-motion construction.

“There Are Places Full of Beauty”: Desettling High School Students' Scientific Writing
Science Education, Volume 110, Issue 4, Page 1018-1042, July 2026.ABSTRACT This study contributes to desettling and expanding expectations about the forms of scientific language that belong in students' scientific writing. The primary empirical focus is the analysis of 52 high school student abstracts articulating community‐based investigations, submitted as part of their participation in a student conference in a ...

Is personal identity intransitive? [PDF]
There has been a call for a potentially revolutionary change to our existing understanding of the psychological concept of personal identity. Apparently, people can psychologically represent people, including themselves, as multiple individuals at the ...

Intransitivity in Theory and in the Real World [PDF]
Entropy, 2015 This work considers reasons for and implications of discarding the assumption of transitivity—the fundamental postulate in the utility theory of von Neumann and Morgenstern, the adiabatic accessibility principle of Caratheodory and most other theories related to preferences or competition. The examples of intransitivity are drawn from different fields,

A vague theory of choice over time [PDF]
We propose a novel approach to modelling time preferences, based on a cognitive shortcoming of human decision makers: the perception of future events becomes increasingly `blurred' as the events are pushed further in time. Our model explains behavioural `

A tailor-made test of intransitive choice
, 2015 This paper reports a new test of intransitive choice using individual measurements of regret- and similarity-based intransitive models of choice under uncertainty. Our test is tailor-made and uses subject-specific stimuli.

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.We integrate natural history and theory to show how higher‐order interactions (HOIs) can restructure competitive networks and influence coexistence in a tropical ant community. The HOI from a parasitoid of the dominant ant species forces the community to move between two dominance regimes, and the interregnum between regimes has multiple interacting ...

Philosophical Investigations, Volume 49, Issue 3, Page 300-315, July 2026.ABSTRACT According to most readers of the Tractatus, Wittgenstein's logic is empty or contentless, since it consists of tautologies that do not picture reality. This view, however, does not explain how and why Wittgenstein's ‘logic of depiction’ is transcendental (T, 4.015 and 6.13), especially given that Kant introduced transcendental logic through ...
