An Empirical Stalemate: Why Science Fails to Settle a Central Philosophical Debate About Perception

open access: yesPhilosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Empirical arguments in the philosophy of perception have become increasingly influential. In this paper, we evaluate the prospects for one such argument—the Argument from Structure—in light of the a priori constraint that we must give a unified account of visual experience.

Where Mathematical Symbols Come From

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a sense in which the symbols used in mathematical expressions and formulas are arbitrary. After all, arithmetic would be no different if we would replace the symbols ‘+$+$’ or ‘8’ by different symbols. Nevertheless, the shape of many mathematical symbols is in fact well motivated in practice.

Dimer models and conformal structures

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 2, Page 340-446, February 2026.
Abstract Dimer models have been the focus of intense research efforts over the last years. Our paper grew out of an effort to develop new methods to study minimizers or the asymptotic height functions of general dimer models and the geometry of their frozen boundaries.

Numerical Analysis of a Benjamin–Bona–Mahony Type Equation in a Noncylindrical Domain

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 2, Page 818-834, 30 January 2026.
ABSTRACT Numerical analysis and simulation for the approximate solution of a Benjamin–Bona–Mahony type equation defined in a noncylindrical domain are presented in this article. The approximate problem is defined using the linearized Crank–Nicolson Galerkin method, which results in a linear algebraic system at each time step while maintaining quadratic
