II. The Neutral K System Alan Chodos and Kenneth Lane Department of Physics, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104 Received 2 December 1971 Continuing our exposition of a nonpolynomial theory of higher-order weak interactions, we examine the neutral K system, with particular emphasis on the CP , and we give an argument leading to η . The neutron dipole moment is a third-order weak effect in our theory and is estimated to be about 10 e cm. We calculate the production cross section for the superprop-agating particles, and find it to be too small for the particles to have yet been observed.

Kuijper Abstract In image registration, mutual information is a well-performing measure based on principles of uncertainty. Similarly, in image analysis the Gaussian scale space, based on minimal assumptions of the image, is used to derive intrinsic properties of an image. This paper starts an investigation of a combination of both methods. This combination results in a double parameterized mutual information measure using local information of the image. For single modality matching best response is found for coinciding parameters. Then critical values are found for which the parameterized mutual information has extrema. First results on multi-modality matching show that different parameter values instead of coinciding values yield the best response for the parameterized mutual information.

Abstract The automatic analysis and indexing of visual content in unconstrained domain are important and challenging problems for a variety of multimedia applications. Much of the prior research work deals with the problems by modeling images and videos as feature vectors, such as global histogram or block-based representation. Despite substantial research efforts on analysis and indexing algorithms based on this representation, their performance remains unsatisfactory. This dissertation attempts to explore the problem from a different perspective through a part-based representation, where images and videos are represented as a collection of parts with their appearance and relational features. Such representation is partly motivated by the human vision research showing that the human vision system adopts similar mechanism to perceive images. Although part-based representation has been investigated for decades, most of the prior work has been focused on

var wgNotice = ""; var wgNoticeLocal = ""; var wgNoticeLang = "en"; var wgNoticeProject = "wikipedia"; Higher-order logic From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search In mathematics higher-order logic is distinguished from first-order logic in a number of ways. One of these is the type of variables appearing in quantifications ; in first-order logic, roughly speaking, it is forbidden to quantify over predicates . See second-order logic for systems in which this is permitted. Another way in which higher-order logic differs from first-order logic is in the constructions allowed in the underlying type theory . A higher-order predicate is a predicate that takes one or more other predicates as arguments. In general, a higher-order predicate of order n takes one or more ( n − 1)th-order predicates as arguments, where n higher-order functions. Higher-order logics are more expressive, but their properties, in particular with respect to model theory , make them less well-behaved for many applications. By a result of G¶del , classical higher-order logic does not admit a ( recursively axiomatized ) sound and complete proof calculus ; however, such a proof calculus does exist which is sound and complete with respect to

A short article for the Encyclopedia of Artificial Intelligence : Second Edition by Dale Miller, February 1991 While first-order logic has syntactic categories for individuals, functions, and predicates, only quantification over individuals is permitted. Many concepts when translated into logic are, however, naturally expressed using quantifiers over functions and predicates. Leibniz's principle of equality, for example, states that two objects are to be taken as equal if they share the same properties; that is, a b P P a P b )]. Of course, first-order logic is very strong and it is possible to encode such a statement into it. For example, let app be a first-order predicate symbol of arity two that is used to stand for the application of a predicate to an individual. Semantically, app P x ) would mean P satisfies x or that the extension of the predicate P contains x P app P a app P b )] (appropriate axioms for describing app app . Higher-order logics arise from not doing this kind of encoding: instead, more immediate and natural representation of higher-order quantification are considered. Indeed naturalness of higher-order quantification is part of the reason why higher-order logics were initially considered by Frege and Russell as a foundation for mathematics.

Logic and Philosophy of Logic The Model Theory Of Dedekind Algebras George Weaver Bryn Mawr College ABSTRACT: 1. INTRODUCTION One of the more striking accomplishments of foundational studies prior to 1930 was the characterization of various mathematical systems uniquely up to isomorphism (see Corcoran [1980]). Among the first systems to receive such a characterization is the sequence of the positive integers. Both Dedekind and Peano provided characterizations of this system in the late 1880's. Dedekind's characterization commenced by considering B, a non-empty set, and h, a "similar transformation" on B (i.e. an injective unary function on B). In deference to Dedekind, the ordered pair B = (B,h) is called a Dedekind algebra . While the study of Dedekind algebras can naturally be viewed as a continuation of Dedekind's work, the focus here is different. Rather than investigating whether a particular Dedekind algebra (the sequence of the positive integers) is characterizable, we proceed by investigating conditions on Dedekind algebras which imply that they are characterizable. In the following we review some of the results obtained in the model theory of Dedekind algebras and discuss some of their consequences. These results are stated without proofs. Weaver [1997a] and [1997b] provide the details of these proofs. Attention is restricted here to the model theory of the second order theories of Dedekind algebras. Weaver [1998] focuses on the model theory of the first order theories of these algebras.

It will be shaped as a dialogue between a mathematician (AB) and a philosopher (DC) and will address one of the central paradoxes of mathematics: why are most uses of infinity in mathematics restricted to the recycling of a small number of “canonical” and ubiquitous structures? ...To put the study of infinity on a firm basis, we first have to discuss the issue of the identity and “sameness” of mathematical objects: infinity of what?

Dr. Saladin's Research Coulomb Excitation Experiments Figure E.1 Spectrum resulting from the scattering of 48MeV O ions from a Dy target. In 1966 pioneering work was started at NPL to develop a new and much more accurate method to measure excitation probabilities as a function of the scattering angle and the charge of the projectile. It was based on high energy-resolution heavy-ion spectroscopy using the world's first large solid-angle high-resolution Enge split-pole spectrometer in combination with position sensitive Si detectors. This allowed for a very precise determination of the ratio of the number of in-elastically scattered projectiles to the number of elastically scattered projectiles as a function of the scattering angle and type of projectile. Heavy ion beams are especially well suited for Coulex experiments since the excitation probabilities increase rapidly with projectile charge, resulting in high order excitation effects. Figure E.1 shows the spectrum resulting from the scattering of 48 MeV O ions from a Dy target. It illustrates that the excitation probability for exciting the first 2

Often, we are required to find ways to describe various complicated sets (like attractors or basins of attraction for example) that are strongly related to this asymptotic behaviour problem. The aim of this book is to introduce fractal dimensions (Box-counting and Hausdorff dimensions in particular) as a tool which aids in the description and understanding of these complicated sets and, therefore, of the related dynamics.

32. Volterra Theory Central in the use of Volterra theory based reduced order aerodynamic model is the identification of Volterra kernels. The truncated Secondorder Volterra http://ctas.poly.asu.edu/chnam/ASE_Book/Volterra Theory.htm

Volterra Series and Volterra Kernel Nonlinear Volterra theory was developed in the 1880s by Vito Volterra. The theory quickly received a great deal of attention in the field of electrical engineering, and then later in the biological field, as a powerful approach to the modeling of nonlinear system behavior. Volterra theory is a generalization of the linear convolution integral approach often applied to linear, time-invariant systems. The theory states that any time-invariant, nonlinear system can be modeled as an infinite sum of multidimensional convolution integrals of increasing order. This is represented symbolically by the series of integrals, which is known as the Volterra series. Here, u(t) represents the dynamic system input while y(t) represents the system response. Volterra theory is based on dynamic data, and as such the average values of all input and response data sets are removed. Each of the convolution integrals contains a kernel, either linear ( h ) or nonlinear ( h ,..,h n ), which represents the behavior of the system.

Next: References Up: On How Logic Became Previous: II III If arguments (or ``urgings'') from Skolem and Gödel did not play a major role in the AFOL development, what did? Of course, there were several causes of the AFOL development. A (most certainly incomplete) list of probable causes will be presented below. What I will do in the remainder of this essay is to add some pieces to the answer to the question of the AFOL development. First I will sketch an account of how the analysis of quantification in the 1920s might have helped cause the AFOL development, and below I will present the (even more tentative) suggestion that there might be a connection between Tarski's model-theoretic analyses of the notions of logical truth and logical consequence (and, quite generally, the emergence of model theory as a mathematical discipline) and the emergence of first-order logic as the de facto standard in logic. Because of the paradoxes that had been discovered (e.g. Russell's and other paradoxes) and to some extent because of the intuitionistic challenge, several logicians in the 1920s felt induced to embrace (Hilbertian) finitism. The idea was to secure (the consistency of) classical logic and classical mathematics by ``finitary'', and hence epistemologically innocuous, methods. Even logicians not directly belonging to Hilbert's school, like Thoralf Skolem, were clearly influenced by this development. The quantifiers constituted a major obstacle for any finitistic analysis of logic: they brought in the possibly

Domain 2 is concerned with the theory and methods used to measure variables that are important in psychological and educational research, practice, and evaluation. Such variables include aptitudes, achievements, attitudes, personality traits and characteristics, and other cognitive and non-cognitive characteristics. Psychologists must be able to develop and use measuring instruments that are appropriate for specified educational and psychological purposes. To be able to do so, they must develop an understanding of measurement principles and knowledge of available measuring instruments and procedures, as well as a good working knowledge of related statistical procedures and methods of experimental design and data analysis. Auxiliary skills that also must be developed include the use of computers and related mathematics (such as statistics and matrix algebra).

Charles Rezk's papers and preprints. Papers and Preprints. "Topological modular forms of level 3" , with M. Mahowald. ( dvi pdf .) Accepted for publication in Pure and Applied Math Quarterly We describe and compute the homotopy of spectra of topological modular forms of level 3. We give some computations related to the "building complex" associated to level 3 structures at the prime 2. Finally, we note the existence of a number of connective models of the spectrum TMF(Gamma "The units of a ring spectrum and a logarithmic cohomology operation" dvi pdf .) This has appeared in Journal of the AMS , v.19 (2006). We construct a "logarithmic" cohomology operation on Morava E-theory, which is a homomorphism defined on the multiplicative group of invertible elements in the ring E (K) of a space K. We obtain a formula for this map in terms of the action of Hecke operators on Morava E-theory. Our formula is closely related to that for an Euler factor of the Hecke L-function of an automorphic form. "Topological resolutions of the K(2)-local sphere" , with P. Goerss, H.-W. Henn, and M.

Practical Foundations of Mathematics Paul Taylor Higher Order Logic Well-foundedness is a second order property because it is defined by quantifying the induction scheme over all predicates q x ]. In higher order logic, predicates (or, by comprehension, subsets) are first class citizens, allowing quantification over predicates on predicates. First order schemes Before ascending to the second order, let us note first that there is a tradition (with almost a strangle-hold over twentieth century logic [ ]) of reading any quantification over predicates or types as a scheme to be instantiated by each of the formulae which can be defined in the first order part. This has a profound qualitative effect. R EMARK 2.8.1 The completeness of first order model theory - the fact that the syntax and semantics exactly match (Remark ) - has strange corollaries for the cardinality of its models. If a theory has arbitrarily large finite models then it has an infinite one (the compactness theorem ), and in this case there are models of any infinite cardinality (the ). Second order logic has no such property.

FIRST SEMESTER MODEL THEORY (Wim Veldman) In mathematics one often studies the class of structures satisfying a given set of formal axioms, for instance the class of groups, the class of fields, or the class of linear orders. In Model Theory one starts to study the rather general case that the axioms are formulated in a first-order or elementary language. This means that, when interpreting the formulas of such a language, one only quantifies over the domain of the structure, and not, for instance, over the power set of the domain. The pivotal notion of model theory is the notion of a formula being true in a mathematical structure. This notion has been given a formal definition by A. Tarski. Axiomatizing a structure is closely related to finding a method to decide which sentences are true in the structure. We shall discuss Tarski's quantifier elimination results. Given a formal theory, what can we say about the class of its countable models? We give a characterization, due to several mathematicians independently, of theories that have exactly one countable model.

ABSTRACTS of PLENARY TALKS Ian ANDERSON "Classification problems in geometry and algebra" Abstract In this talk I shall illustrate, by means of two examples, an on-going program at Utah State University to create Maple software and Java applets for implementing the solution to various classification problems in mathematics. The first classification problem to be discussed is Petrov's remarkable classification of all 4 dimensional local group actions which admit an Lorentz invariant metric. (This is different from Petrov's classification of spacetimes according to the algebraic properties of the Weyl tensor.) Petrov's classification contains over 100 distinct local group ations and associated invariant metrics and thus it is a non-trivial task to identify a given local group action or a given invariant metric in Petrov's list. I shall demonstrate a web-based Java applet which allows one to identify any metric with symmetry in Petrov's list and also to search for group actions or invariant metrics in Petrov's list with prescribed properties. The results of some preliminary efforts to automate the verification of Petrov's classification will be shown. The second classification problem will focus on the classification of low dimensional Lie algebras. There are many such tables of Lie algebras in the literature but once again the problem remains of explicitly identifying a given Lie algebra in these tables, a task which is further complicated by the existence of families of Lie algebras containing arbitrary parameters.

VAR Priors : Success or lack of a decent macroeconomic theory ? Francisco F. R. Ramos Faculty of Economics, University of Porto, 4200 Porto, Portugal. Phone: +351-(0)2-5509720, Fax: +351-(0)2-5505050 E-mail: framos@fep.up.pt Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the success of the Litterman prior in VAR forecasting is not due to the realism of the prior, but rather because the prior conveniently reduces forecast error variance in common cases of misspecification. Specifically, it is shown that the imposition of a random walk prior reduces forecast error variance in misspecifications involving (1) time-varying coefficients misspecified as constant coefficients, (2) serially correlated residuals misspecified as white noise, and (3) the inclusion of an irrelevant unit root process in the VAR. Classification system for journal articles: Key words: BVAR, Forecasting performance, Litterman prior, Misspecification Random-walk prior, VAR. 1. Introduction This paper critically examines the proposition that Bayesian priors for VAR foracasting are successful because they are realistic. We contend that their lack of realism, combined with the lack of a decent macroeconomic theory is the reason for the success of the Litterman prior. Through a series of theoretical examples, we demonstrate that classical VAR forecasting leads to high forecast error variance but that the forecast error variance is reduced substantially by the imposition of the Litterman random walk prior. The second section of this paper briefly reviews the Litterman random walk prior. In the third section, we develop three examples, which we argue are typical of actual macroeconomics models, that show how the "unrealistic" random walk prior reduces forecast error variance. The paper closes with a brief summary and conclusion.

Theory of Finite Difference Models with Applications in Diffusion. Objective: Learn about the theory of finite difference as it applies to diffusion. Because finite difference numerical techniques are inherently unstable a basic knowledge of finite difference theory is required to obtain stable solutions. by Mukund Patel (resume) . Modified by R.D. Kriz (5/14/95) and (5/16/04). Introduction During the course of study in materials science engineering, the student is exposed to the topic of diffusion a number of times. These discussions usually lead to the derivation of the flux equation: or Fick's first law, for steady state diffusion, and for nonsteady state diffusion, Fick's second law is derived: These discussions are not a very accurate depiction of diffusion, because they are useful only if diffusion occurrs in one dimension. In real life applications, diffusion occurs in all three dimensions. For diffusion in two dimensions Fick's second law becomes where this equation considers the change in concentration, C, with time, t, in both the x and the y directions. The goal of this section is to explain the mathematics involved in solving the two dimensional diffusion problem. In this section we only provide a brief introduction to analytic models of diffusion, if you are not already familiar with the theory of diffusion the reader is encouraged to first go to the section on analytic models for diffusion The two dimensional diffusion equation is a nonhomogeneous form of the Laplace equation for nonsteady state conditions. To solve this problem, the Crank-Nicolson Method is used [1]. This method is always second order accurate for both a change in t and x: here a change in t and x will be refered to as delta-t and delta-x respectively. With a second order accurate soluion we can take larger time steps, Ref. [2]. Using this method and performing a Taylor's series expansion with respect to a change in time, delta-t, equation (3) becomes:

55. HOG The second goal is the development of a framework within Higher Order Grammar a formally explicit theory of hyperintensions2, mathematical models of http://www.ling.ohio-state.edu/~hana/hog/

What is HOG? Key features: There is a propositional logic of types , which denote sets of linguistic (phonological, syntactic, or semantic) entities. For example, the type NP denotes the syntactic category (or form class) of noun phrases. HOG maintains Curry's distinction between tectogrammatical structure (abstract syntax) and phenogramatical structure (concrete syntax). Abstract syntactic entities are identified with structuralist (Bloomfield-Hockett) free forms (words and phrases). For example, the NP your cat is an NP, distinct from its phonology or its semantics. Concrete syntax is identified with phonology, broadly construed to include word order. The modelling of Fregean senses is broadly similar to Montague's, but with intensions replaced by finer-grained hyperintensions There is a (Curry-Howard) proof term calculus , whose terms denote linguistic (phonological, syntactic, or semantic) entities. The term calculus is embedded in a classical higher-order logic (HOL). The syntax-phonology and syntax-semantics interfaces are expressed as axiomatic theories in the HOL.

Macroscopic Equations for a Sample Model 2.1. Structure of the Model The model is based on a regular two-dimensional lattice of hexagonal cells, as illustrated in Fig. 1. The site at the center of each cell is connected to its six neighbors by links corresponding to the unit vectors through given by At each time step, zero or one particles lie on each directed link. Assuming unit time steps and unit particle masses, the velocity and momentum of each particle is given simply by its link vector . In this model, therefore, all particles have equal kinetic energy, and have zero potential energy. The configuration of particles evolves in a sequence of discrete time steps. At each step, every particle first moves by a displacement equal to its velocity . Then the particles on the six links at each site are rearranged according to a definite set of rules. The rules are chosen to conserve the number and total momentum of the particles. In a typical case, pairs of particles meeting head on might scatter through , as would triples of particles apart. The rules may also rearrange other configurations, such as triples of particles meeting asymmetrically. Such features are important in determining parameters such as viscosity, but do not affect the form of the macroscopic equations derived in this section.
