A Personal Tribute to Bill Lawvere
This year marks the 50th anniversary of Lawvere’s thesis on algebraic theories and of the far-reaching idea of algebraic structure as a functor adjoint to semantics. Around the time of this important event, Lawvere was also thinking about several other questions in category theory, motivated by his manifold interests from logic to physics, passing through algebra. In fact, so much so, that it w...
متن کاملA Bishop surface with a vanishing Bishop invariant
We derive a complete set of invariants for a formal Bishop surface near a point of complex tangent with a vanishing Bishop invariant under the action of formal transformations. We prove that the modular space of Bishop surfaces with a vanishing Bishop invariant and with a fixed Moser invariant s < ∞ is of infinite dimension. We also prove that the equivalence class of the germ of a generic real...
متن کاملA bill of rights, or a bill of goods?
In response to the rise in construction defect litigation and the resulting increase in the cost of insurance contractors are required to carry, the Washington Legislature passed RCW 64.50.005 et seq., which became effective June 13, 2002. The statute (referred to by some as a “bill of rights” for contractors) requires that homeowners and condominium homeowners’ associations (collectively “home...
متن کاملThe Mergelyan-Bishop Theorem
We define the differential operator ∂ ∂z on infinitely differentiable functions (also called smooth or C∞ functions) on some open set in C by ∂ ∂z = 1 2 ( ∂ ∂x + i ∂ ∂y ). A quick calculation shows that ∂ ∂z obeys the product rule. Recall that a function f is holomorphic if and only if ∂ ∂z (f) = 0. A function is biholomorphic, or an analytic isomorphism, if it is holomorphic and has holomorphi...
متن کاملExamining Personal Information Keeping in a Lightweight Note-Taking Tool
This paper describes a longitudinal field experiment in personal note taking that examines how people capture and use information in short textual notes. Study participants used our tool, a simple browser-based textual note taking utility resembling many lightweight tools available today, to capture personal information over the course of ten days. We examine the information they kept in the to...
