ABSTRACT Purity is the principle that fundamental facts only have fundamental constituents. In recent years, it has played a significant (if sometimes implicit) role in metaphysical theorizing. A philosopher will argue that a fact [p]$[p]$ contains a derivative entity and cite Purity as a reason to deny that [p]$[p]$ is fundamental. I argue that recent

(Co‐)Reference All the Way Down: A Unified Theory of (Pro) Nominals in Ordinary English
ABSTRACT This essay joins two themes, both arising from Kripke's inspiring ideas in the theory of reference. The first theme concerns reference in general. The second examines the notion of co‐reference and the role it plays in a unified theory of pronouns for natural language.

Hidden zeros and 2-split via BCFW recursion relation
In this paper, we provide another angle to understand recent discoveries, i.e., the hidden zeros and corresponding 2-split behavior using the BCFW recursion relation. For the hidden zeros, we show that although the BCFW recursion relation is not directly

Alignment of the Starlings: Learning With Generative AI
ABSTRACT I will argue that answers to normative questions concerning the place of generative AI in learning rest on answers to ontological questions regarding (1) precisely what is happening when a human ‘interacts’ with generative AI and (2) What is distinctive about organic learning as opposed to currently existing ‘machine learning’ (3) What is the ...

A Dynamic Model for Extreme Hourly Precipitation
ABSTRACT Despite the scarcity of comprehensive studies at a global scale, many regional analyses report increases in extreme hourly precipitation values. The growing interest in assessing trends in extreme hourly precipitation has outpaced the development of new statistical tools tailored to their features. Typical analyses employ Extreme Value Theory (

Recursive and Cyclic Constructions for Double‐Change Covering Designs
ABSTRACT A double‐change covering design (DCCD) is a v‐set V and an ordered list L of b blocks of size k where every pair from V must occur in at least one block and each pair of consecutive blocks differs by exactly two elements. It is minimal if it has the fewest blocks possible and circular when the first and last blocks also differ by two elements.
