Anselm's Temporal‐Ontological Proof

open access: yesNoûs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In his Reply to Gaunilo, Anselm presented two additional arguments for the existence of God beyond those that appear in the Proslogion. In “The Logical Structure of Anselm's Argument,” Robert M. Adams isolates each. One, he develops into a modal ontological argument along the lines of other 20th century ontological arguments (e.g., those of ...

Meaning, anti‐alienation, and fulfillment

open access: yesThe Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract One intuition that motivates subjectivist theories about meaning in life is the anti‐alienation intuition, that is, for a life to be meaningful it must engage with the person whose life it is. This article contends that the anti‐alienation and subjectivist theories it motivates are best understood as tracking fulfillment in life; this is an ...

The cardiac pacemakers: A paradigm of robustness in evolutionary biology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Functional networks in living systems are formed by many thousands of gene products. In association with those networks, several genes (four in this diagram) may be sufficient, each on its own, to ensure that the function occurs. Any one of these may be removed or blocked while leaving the others to continue functioning.

Language machines: Toward a linguistic anthropology of large language models

open access: yesJournal of Linguistic Anthropology, Volume 36, Issue 1, May 2026.
Abstract Large language models (LLMs) challenge long‐standing assumptions in linguistics and linguistic anthropology by generating human‐like language without relying on rule‐based structures. This introduction to the special issue Language Machines calls for renewed engagement with LLMs as socially embedded language technologies.

Ghost effect from Boltzmann theory

open access: yesCommunications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, Volume 79, Issue 3, Page 558-675, March 2026.
Abstract Taking place naturally in a gas subject to a given wall temperature distribution, the “ghost effect” exhibits a rare kinetic effect beyond the prediction of classical fluid theory and Fourier law in such a classical problem in physics. As the Knudsen number ε$\varepsilon$ goes to zero, the finite variation of temperature in the bulk is ...

Classical eikonal in relativistic scattering

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
The classical eikonal is defined to be the generator of all scattering observables in a scattering problem in classical mechanics. It was originally introduced as the log of the quantum S-matrix in the classical limit.
