Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and the Perception of Reality from the Visual Field of the Other: Analysis of the Relation between Ordinary Language Philosophy and Poststructural Critique of Vision

open access: yesAM: Art + Media, 2016
The first objective of this work is to establish a parallel between the ordinary language philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein as well as the philosophy of Stanley Cavell and poststructuralism and its theories through their apprehension of vision and seeing

Non-representable hyperbolic matroids [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
The generalized Lax conjecture asserts that each hyperbolicity cone is a linear slice of the cone of positive semidefinite matrices. Hyperbolic polynomials give rise to a class of (hyperbolic) matroids which properly contains the class of matroids ...

1. Non-Euclidean Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, 1880
When I had the honour of being asked by the Council of the Royal Society to give the following address, I chose the subject partly because it had been brought under the notice of the fellows by my predecessor, Professor Kelland. His memoir was written comparatively early in the history of the subject; and he seems to have been but little acquainted ...

NON-EUCLIDEAN GEOMETRY [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1943
THE philosopher Kant declared that Euclidean geometry was inherent in the human mind and expressed the truth about space. We now recognize that non-Euclidean geometry is equally valid as an abstract system, and that one particular form (due to Riemann) has more claim than Euclidean geometry to represent the properties of physical space.

Supersymmetric indices factorize

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
The extent to which quantum mechanical features of black holes can be understood from the Euclidean gravity path integral has recently received significant attention. In this paper, we examine this question for the calculation of the supersymmetric index.

From numbers to forms. The digital turn in morphogenic processes

open access: yesAgathón, 2022
The digital turn, or specifically the second Digital Turn, was at disposal of the architectural and urban project sophisticated morphogenic tools. These tools have been used mainly to create new forms with non-Euclidean geometries and their integration ...

Non-Euclidean Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1911
As many mathematicians give very little thought to the theory of sets, it is perhaps worth while dwelling for moment on Dr. Sommerville's possibly misleading remarks in NATURE of October 5. He, quite correctly, points out the one-one correspondence between the aggregates of integral numbers 1, 2, 3, &c. (n), and even numbers 2, 4, 6, &c. (2n). Thus the

A look at non-Euclidean Geometries in Basic Education

open access: yesEducação Matemática Debate
The research presented in this article analyzed a teacher's reflective narrative on teaching non-Euclidean Geometries in Basic Education. Her experience is tied to her practice in schools, teacher education, and engagement with Mathematics Education ...

Non-Euclidean Geometry in Nature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
I describe the manifestation of the non-Euclidean geometry in the behavior of collective observables of some complex physical systems. Specifically, I consider the formation of equilibrium shapes of plants and statistics of sparse random graphs. For these systems I discuss the following interlinked questions: (i) the optimal embedding of plants leaves ...
