Relative thermalization [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2016
When studying thermalization of quantum systems, it is typical to ask whether a system interacting with an environment will evolve towards a local thermal state. Here, we show that a more general and relevant question is "when does a system thermalize relative to a particular reference?" By relative thermalization we mean that, as well as being in a ...

What Would a Tree Say About Its Size?

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
When developing theories, designing studies, and interpreting the results, researchers are influenced by their perception of tree size. For example, we may compare two trees of the same size belonging to different species, and attribute any differences ...

THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS REGARDING THIRD PARTIES IN THE LIGHT OF CONTRACTS’ EFFECTS RELATIVITY PRINCIPLE [PDF]

open access: yesEconomica, 2021
The contract is the subject of civil law that creates the basic entity of the national and international economy, and the contracting process is the most important stage in economic affairs in general. Naturally producing effects between the parties,

Relative and modified relative realizability

open access: yesAnnals of Pure and Applied Logic, 2002
The notion of relative realizability, originally due to Kleene and Vesley, has recently been studied in topos-theoretic terms by the first author of this paper together with \textit{S. Awodey} and \textit{D. S. Scott} [``Local realizability toposes and a modal logic for computability'', Math. Struct. Comput. Sci.

Functorial Evolution of Quantum Fields

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2021
We present a compositional algebraic framework to describe the evolution of quantum fields in discretised spacetimes. We show how familiar notions from Relativity and quantum causality can be recovered in a purely order-theoretic way from the causal ...

The relativity of relative risks: disadvantage or opportunity? [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychiatry, 2003
Psychiatric epidemiologists use many tools, such as relative risks and the related odds ratios, that were developed to study chronic somatic disease. Cancer epidemiologists identify as a major advantage of relative risks that, when appropriately adjusted for confounding and effect modification ...

Relativity without relativity [PDF]

open access: yesClassical and Quantum Gravity, 2002
We give a derivation of general relativity and the gauge principle that is novel in presupposing neither spacetime nor the relativity principle. We consider a class of actions defined on superspace with two key properties. The first is 3-coordinate invariance. This is the only postulated symmetry, and it leads to the standard momentum constraint.

Relative torsion classes, relative tilting, and relative silting modules

open access: yesCommunications in Algebra, 2021
Let $Λ$ be an Artin algebra. In 2014, T. Adachi, O. Iyama and I. Reiten proved that the torsion funtorially finite classes in $\mathrm{mod}\,(Λ)$ can be described by the $τ$-tilting theory. The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of $F$-torsion class in $\mathrm{mod}\,(Λ)$, where $F$ is an additive subfunctor of $\mathrm{Ext}^1_Λ,$ and to ...

Strong-Coupled Relativity Without Relativity [PDF]

open access: yesGeneral Relativity and Gravitation, 2004
GR can be interpreted as a theory of evolving 3-geometries. A recent such formulation, the 3-space approach of Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha, also permits the construction of a limited number of other theories of evolving 3-geometries, including conformal gravity and strong gravity.

Einstein Geometrization Philosophy and Differential Identities in PAP-Geometry

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2016
The importance of Einstein’s geometrization philosophy, as an alternative to the least action principle, in constructing general relativity (GR), is illuminated. The role of differential identities in this philosophy is clarified.
