Inverse Element for Surreal Number
Formalized MathematicsSummary Conway’s surreal numbers have a fascinating algebraic structure, which we try to formalise in the Mizar system. In this article, building on our previous work establishing that the surreal numbers fulfil the ring properties, we construct the inverse element for any non-zero number.

Non‐Rigid 3D Shape Correspondences: From Foundations to Open Challenges and Opportunities
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Estimating correspondences between deformed shape instances is a long‐standing problem in computer graphics; numerous applications, from texture transfer to statistical modelling, rely on recovering an accurate correspondence map. Many methods have thus been proposed to tackle this challenging problem from varying perspectives, depending on ...

An algebraic (set) theory of surreal numbers, I
FLAP, 2019 The notion of surreal number was introduced by J.H. Conway in the mid 1970's: the surreal numbers constitute a linearly ordered (proper) class $No$ containing the class of all ordinal numbers ($On$) that, working within the background set theory NBG, can be defined by a recursion on the class $On$.

Establishing Shape Correspondences: A Survey
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Shape correspondence between surfaces in 3D is a central problem in geometry processing, concerned with establishing meaningful relations between surfaces. While all correspondence problems share this goal, specific formulations can differ significantly: Downstream applications require certain properties that correspondences must satisfy ...

Children &Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Developmental psychology continues to shape how adults engage with children about death and dying. This influences whether children are included in rituals surrounding human and other‐than‐human bodies. Figurations of the innocent, immature and vulnerable child still dominate adult imaginaries of young children's understandings of mortality ...

Children &Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Modern deaths have become reiterations. That is, despite exhibiting a seemingly high‐level of diversity in death's representations in everyday lives, death suffers from a particular onto‐epistemological poverty that prevents it from being imagined otherwise.

European Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.Abstract According to a widely held view both within and outside philosophy, imagination is innocent in the sense that it does not influence what we think and do. Hence, we can let our imagination wander anywhere. There are two ways of pushing back against this ‘innocence of imagination’ claim.

International Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.Abstract The aim of this paper is to outline the activities of an innovative, interdisciplinary public engagement programme delivered by a team from education, art and philosophy disciplines at a Scottish university. The programme began in 2018 and has continually evolved since then in response to its work with schools. The activities are inspired by a

Surreal numbers, exponentiation and derivations
, 2020 We give a presentation of Conway's surreal numbers focusing on the connections with transseries and Hardy fields and trying to simplify when possible the existing treatments.

Sociology Lens, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite their very diverse interests, the classical sociological thinkers were concerned with analyzing the dramatic social transformations in the wake of colonialism, slavery, and modern industrial capitalism as well as the multiple revolutions, particularly in relation to the new forms of social inequalities and power disparities.
