Entropy, Order and Disorder
Entropy is one of the few physical properties of a system that cannot be measured directly, but must be deduced or calculated from other properties. It is also a property that has been defined in a rather abstract sense and has not been connected to another observable property or physical variable. Since its formulation as a thermodynamic property, entropy has been linked to the concepts of ord...
متن کاملDisorder , Entropy and Harmonic Functions
We study harmonic functions on random environments with particular emphasis on the case of the infinite cluster of supercritical percolation on Z. We prove that the vector space of harmonic functions growing at most linearly is (d+ 1)-dimensional almost surely. Further, there are no nonconstant sublinear harmonic functions (thus implying the uniqueness of the corrector). A main ingredient of th...

Apr i l 20 09 d o n d ix o n In science, the grandest revolutions are often triggered by the smallest discrepancies. In the 16th century, based on what struck many of his contemporaries as the esoteric minutiae of celestial motions, Copernicus suggested that Earth was not, in fact, at the center of the universe. In our own era, another revolution began to unfold 11 years ago with the discovery ...
متن کاملDoes schizoaffective disorder really exist? A systematic review of the studies that compared schizoaffective disorder with schizophrenia or mood disorders.
BACKGROUND Since its first definition in the literature, schizoaffective disorder (SAD) has raised a considerable controversy regarding its clinical distinction from schizophrenia (SCH) and mood disorders (MD) as well as its validity as an independent nosological category. OBJECTIVE Investigate the validity of SAD as a discrete nosological category and its relationship with SCH and MD. METH...
متن کاملOn Hidden Disorder in XML Tags
Automatic integration of structured and semi-structured data has been a goal of nearly thirty years of integration research. The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) integration attempts have not succeeded either. The lack of progress demonstrates early assumptions were naïve. This paper will show XML schemas possess natural language characteristics that pose significant barriers to achieving full ...
