Inverse problem of a hyperbolic equation with an integral overdetermination condition

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2016
In this article we study the inverse problem of a hyperbolic equation with an integral overdetermination condition. The existence, uniqueness and continuous dependence of the solution of the solution upon the data are established.

Introduction to the Quantum Theory of Elementary Cycles: The Emergence of Space, Time and Quantum

open access: yes, 2016
Elementary Cycles Theory is a self-consistent, unified formulation of quantum and relativistic physics. Here we introduce its basic quantum aspects.

Marx's Law of the Profit Rate and the Reproduction of Capitalism: Neither Determinism Nor Overdetermination

open access: yesWorld Review of Political Economy, 2018
This article supports a holistic interpretation of Marxian thought to argue the existence of socio-historical, objectives and tendential laws of motion governing the reproduction of the system.

The Hidden Premise in the Causal Argument for Physicalism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The causal argument for physicalism is anayzed and it's key premise--the causal closure of physics--is found wanting. Therefore, a hidden premise must be added to the argument to gain its conclusion, but the hidden premise is indistinguishable from the ...

The classical overdetermined Serrin problem

open access: yes, 2017
In this survey we consider the classical overdetermined problem which was studied by Serrin in 1971. The original proof relies on Alexandrov's moving plane method, maximum principles, and a refinement of Hopf's boundary point Lemma.

Inverse problem for semilinear wave equation with strong damping

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics
The initial-boundary and the inverse coefficient problems for the semilinear hyperbolic equation with strong damping are considered in this study. The conditions for the existence and uniqueness of solutions in Sobolev spaces to these problems have been ...

Alea Capta Est: Foucault’s Dispositif and Capturing Chance

open access: yesFoucault Studies, 2015
It is somewhat of a mystery why one of Foucault's most important concepts—that of ‘dispositif’—is still quite vague in social and political theory; and while a small number of analyses have moved understanding forward, it remains stubbornly opaque. This

Toward a concept of pluralistic, inter-relational semiosis

open access: yesSign Systems Studies, 2007
Brief consideration of (1) Peirce’s ‘logic of vagueness’, (2) his categories, and (3) the concepts of overdetermination and underdetermination, vagueness and generality, and inconsistency and incompleteness, along with (4) the abrogation of classical ...

A principled approach to defining actual causation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper we present a new proposal for defining actual causation, i.e., the problem of deciding if one event caused another. We do so within the popular counterfactual tradition initiated by Lewis, which is characterised by attributing a fundamental
