Barren Worlds

چکیده

Abstract This work explores issues with the eliminativist formulation of ontic structural realism. An ontology that totally eliminates objects is found lacking by arguing, first, theoretical frameworks used to support best arguments against an object-oriented (quantum mechanics, relativity theory, quantum field theory) can be seen in every case as physical models empty worlds, and therefore do not represent all information comes from science, particular fundamental physics, which also includes about local interactions between objects. Secondly, giving a critical assessment role symmetries these theories; and, lastly, warning unfounded metaphysical assumptions. argument made for moderate form realism instead, one play representing bearing their conserved charges, participating network observed world.

A Barren Landscape

We consider the generation of a non-perturbative superpotential in F-theory compactifications with flux. For models with a single volume modulus, we show that the volume modulus is never stabilized by either abelian instantons or gaugino condensation. We then comment on how our analysis extends to a larger class of compactifications. From our results, it appears that among large volume string c...

Adrian Miroiu WORLDS WITHIN WORLDS

It is sometimes argued that possible worlds are too rich. Indeed, for every sentence φ and every world w, either φ is true at w, or ¬φ is true at w. Possible worlds leave nothing unsettled: for any question one may ask, there is always an answer, yes or no. My view goes along the opposite side. I take possible worlds to be incredibly poor, and I think that a good deal can be added to them. The ...

Constructing Hereditary Worlds Within Worlds

Although they appear unrelated, the type system of the polymorphic λ-calculus with references and the assertions of concurrent separation logic with first-class locks share a critical feature: an unsound contravariant circularity in their naı̈ve semantic model. We developed indirection theory to automatically construct, and cleanly axiomatize, step-indexed approximations to these naı̈ve models, a...

Near-island biological hotspots in barren ocean basins.

Phytoplankton production drives marine ecosystem trophic-structure and global fisheries yields. Phytoplankton biomass is particularly influential near coral reef islands and atolls that span the oligotrophic tropical oceans. The paradoxical enhancement in phytoplankton near an island-reef ecosystem--Island Mass Effect (IME)--was first documented 60 years ago, yet much remains unknown about the ...

Strong interaction between plants induces circular barren patches: fairy circles.

Fairy circles consist of isolated or randomly distributed circular areas devoid of any vegetation. They are observed in vast territories in southern Angola, Namibia and South Africa. We report on the formation of fairy circles, and we interpret them as localized structures with a varying plateau size as a function of the aridity. Their stabilization mechanism is attributed to a combined influen...
