Right amenable left group sets and the Tarski-FØlner theorem [PDF]
We introduce right amenability, right FØlner nets, and right paradoxical decompositions for left homogeneous spaces and prove the Tarski-FØlner theorem for left homogeneous spaces with finite stabilisers.

On Tarski's Foundations of the Geometry of Solids [PDF]
AbstractThe paper [Tarski:Les fondements de la géométrie des corps,Annales de la Société Polonaise de Mathématiques, pp. 29–34, 1929] is in many ways remarkable. We address three historico-philosophical issues that force themselves upon the reader. First we argue that in this paper Tarski did not live up to his own methodological ideals, but displayed ...

Abstract It is well‐recognized in the sciences that a multitude of nonequivalent models are used by researchers to fulfill a range of goals, even for the same target system, a result known broadly as model pluralism. The possibility of the same form of pluralism occurring in logic, however, has not been adequately considered.

Ontology After Folk Psychology; or, Why Eliminativists Should Be Mental Fictionalists
ABSTRACT Mental fictionalism holds that folk psychology should be regarded as a kind of fiction. The present version gives a Lewisian prefix semantics for mentalistic discourse, where roughly, a mentalistic sentence “p” is true iff “p” is deducible from the folk psychological fiction.

Iniciamos com o conceito de dedução, como conhecido no contexto da Matemática e das ciências exatas. Então, apresentamos algumas propostas de formalização da dedução em sistemas dedutivos, o que é bem conhecido nos tratados de lógica universal ou lógica

Fuzzy Results for Finitely Supported Structures
We present a survey of some results published recently by the authors regarding the fuzzy aspects of finitely supported structures. Considering the notion of finite support, we introduce a new degree of membership association between a crisp set and a ...

Model‐Based Semantics: Doing Without Meaning Constitution
Abstract This paper introduces a model‐based account of meaning, arguing that meaning properties reside in models rather than in the external world. Building on this view, it explores how such an instrumentalist framework can engage critically with various concerns raised by Wittgenstein, Quine, and Kripke[nstein]—each of whom voiced scepticism toward ...

Simple groups with strong fixed‐point properties
Abstract We exhibit finitely generated torsion‐free groups for which any action on any finite‐dimensional CW‐complex with finite Betti numbers has a global fixed point.
