Cantorian Infinity and Philosophical Concepts of God [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is often alleged that Cantor’s views about how the set theoretic universe as a whole should be considered are fundamentally unclear. In this article we argue that Cantor’s views on this subject, at least up until around 1896, are relatively clear ...

Can Mathematical Objects Be Causally Efficacious? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Callard (2007) argues that it is metaphysically possible that a mathematical object, although abstract, causally affects the brain. I raise the following objections. First, a successful defence of mathematical realism requires not merely the metaphysical

Logos and image: limits and possible developments of the iconic turn. A revision of G. Boehm´s philosophy of the image and his critics of logocentrism

open access: yesEikasía
G. Bohem has lead the iconic or pictorial turn in the German Bildwissenchaft, carrying out a powerful hermeneutics of the meaning incorporated into images. Bohem´s contribution is also known for his famous criticism of logocentrism.

Artificial Intelligence–Driven and Digital Practices for Circular Business and Finance: Insights for Advancing Hubs for Circularity

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emerging concept of Hubs for Circularity (H4Cs) presents an opportunity to create collaborative, self‐sustaining regional industrial ecosystems that drive circular economy transitions at scale. However, the operationalisation of H4Cs faces financial, organisational and data‐driven challenges.

Morphological Control of Aurophilic Chains of Gold(I) Dithiolate Dimers With Alkali and Alkali Earth Cations

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Luminescent coordination polymers of Group 1 (Li, K, Cs) and 2 (Mg─Ba) cations with gold(I) iso‐maleonitriledithiolate ({Au2[S2C = C(CN)2]}2−) units were prepared; 1‐D aurophilic chains are present in all cases. The structures strongly depend on cation charge and size, with N‐cyano coordination observed in the Gp 1 and larger Gp 2 cations. Increasingly

Syntax without Abstract Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In line with the nominalistic denial of the existence of abstract objects, a basic theory of syntax for formal languages is developed and shown to satisfy certain fundamental ...

Platonic sphalerons

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2004
We construct sphaleron solutions in Weinberg-Salam theory, which possess only discrete symmetries. Related to rational maps of degree N, these sphalerons carry baryon number Q_B=N/2. The energy density of these sphalerons reflects their discrete symmetries.

Trends in Structural and Spectroscopic Signatures of Iron(II) Complexes Supported by Systematically Varied Tetra‐N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Macrocycles

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
The effects of ligand ring size and peripheral substitution on geometric and electronic structures as well as electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of a family of iron(II) complexes with macrocyclic tetracarbene ligands, often called organometallic heme analogues, have been analyzed, to provide structure/property correlations as a basis for ...
