South African Journal of Philosophy, 2012 This article explores the Rawlsian goal of ensuring that distributionsare not influenced by the morally arbitrary. It does so by bringing discussionsof distributive justice into contact with the debate overmoral luck initiated by Williams and Nagel. Rawls’ own justice asfairness appears to be incompatible with the arbitrariness commitment,as it ...

The strong Atiyah and Lück approximation conjectures for one-relator groups [PDF]
Mathematische Annalen, 2018 It is shown that the strong Atiyah conjecture and the Lück approximation conjecture in the space of marked groups hold for locally indicable groups. In particular, this implies that one-relator groups satisfy both conjectures.
