Representations of Spaces [PDF]
We explain how the notion of homotopy colimits gives rise to that of mapping spaces, even in categories which are not simplicial. We apply the technique of model approximations and use elementary properties of the category of spaces to be able to ...

From Formulas to Functions through Geometry: A Path to Understanding Algebraic Computations
The teaching of algebra at the secondary school level has faced a great revolution during the last 50 years. While previously, it was focused on technicisms and pure syntactic rules, the most modern trends recommend using a functional approach to algebra

State of the art of social representations theory in Asia: An empirical meta-theoretical analysis
Part of a larger research project aimed at performing the meta-theoretical analysis of the worldwide literature published on social representations theory (SRT), this article explores the state of art of the theory in the geocultural context of Asia ...

Frequent Representations [PDF]
A unitary representation \(T\) of a finite group \(G\) is called `frequent' if the dimension of the variety of all representations which are unitarily equivalent to \(T\) is maximal (among all unitary representations of \(G\) in the same finite-dimensional complex space). For example, the fundamental representation of \(G\) in the space of functions on

This paper introduces combinatorial representations, which generalise the notion of linear representations of matroids. We show that any family of subsets of the same cardinality has a combinatorial representation via matrices. We then prove that any graph is representable over all alphabets of size larger than some number depending on the graph.

We define worker representation, identify the factors that determine demand for it among workers and employers, discuss difficulties in supplying worker representation, and reflect on the implications of worker representation for worker welfare and the behavior and performance of employers.

The loop representation plays an important role in canonical quantum gravity because loop variables allow a natural treatment of the constraints. In these lectures we give an elementary introduction to (i) the relevant history of loops in knot theory and
