Properties of Schwarzian difference equations
Electronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2015 We consider the Schwarzian type difference equation $$ \Big[\frac{\Delta^{3}f(z)}{\Delta f(z)}-\frac{3}{2} \Big(\frac{\Delta^{2}f(z)}{\Delta f(z)}\Big)^{2}\Big]^{k}=R(z), $$ where R(z) is a nonconstant rational function.

EEG Brain Rhythms During Resting‐State Wakefulness and Sleep in Elderly Expert Meditators
Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.Compared to controls, elderly expert meditators exhibited (1) more preserved resting‐state brain activity, (2) less altered sleep architecture, and (3) EEG features indicative of heightened cognitive states during NREM sleep. Importantly, several of the metrics that differed between groups also showed consistent correlations with meditation expertise ...

Mind &Language, EarlyView.Three main approaches exist for finessing the cognitive demands of Grice's model of communication (a notorious problem): namely, deflationism, modularity, and interpretivism. Here, I consider each in light of human metacommunication, a phenomenon that has been neglected in foundational discussions of Gricean communication.

Artificial Creativity and Human Fragility
Modern Theology, EarlyView.Abstract This article critiques the widespread assumption that generative AI systems exhibit genuine artistic creativity. While such systems can produce novel and aesthetically appealing outputs, assessments based solely on results obscure fundamental differences between human and artificial agents.
