Affine Subdivision, Steerable Semigroups, and Sphere Coverings
Let ∆ be a Euclidean n-simplex and let {∆j} denote a finite union of simplices which partition ∆. We assume that the partition is invariant under the affine symmetry group of ∆. A classical example of such a partition is the one obtained from barycentric subdivision, but there are plenty of other possibilities. (See §4.1, or else [Sp, p. 123], for a definition of barycentric subdivision.) Our p...
متن کاملCultural Relativity of Moral Precepts
The foundation of most intellectual discourse is Western-centric to the exclusion of other views. This includes ideal patterns of social interaction, preference for aesthetic, accepted norms and values, and the concepts of dignity, respectability, morality and ethics. Such a position is culturally myopic. Western cultural influence colors all of them including moral precepts. The assumption is ...
متن کاملGravity as Nonmetricity General Relativity in Metric-Affine Space (Ln,g)
In this paper we propose a new geometric interpretation for General Relativity (GR). It has always been presumed that the gravitational field is described in GR by a LeviCivita connection. We suggest that this may not necessarily be the case. We show that in the presence of an arbitrary affine connection, the gravitational field is described as nonmetricity of the affine connection. An affine c...
متن کاملexploring “relativity”
art critique, the analysis of artworks in formal procedure, is the path which connects the public to the art productions; and although its main aim is to judge the piece, right or wrong, delightful or ugly, the main benefit of this effort is to make the subject comprehensible. to achieve this goal, the art critic should interpret the subject thoroughly, relying on the art production as the main...
متن کاملStrong-coupled Relativity without Relativity
GR can be interpreted as a theory of evolving 3-geometries. A recent such formulation, the 3-space approach of Barbour, Foster and Ó Murchadha, also permits the construction of a limited number of other theories of evolving 3-geometries, including conformal gravity and strong gravity. In this paper, we use the 3-space approach to construct a 1-parameter family of theories which generalize stron...
