Mind Switches in Futurama and Stargate
We generalize two mind-switching problems that arise in connection with the popular sci-fi television series Futurama and Stargate SG-1. Optimal solutions to these problems are found by answering the following question about a permutation σ expressed as a product of nontrivial disjoint cycles. “When writing σ as a product of distinct transpositions none equal to a factor of σ, what is the small...
متن کاملSwitching language switches mind: linguistic effects on developmental neural bases of 'Theory of Mind'.
Theory of mind (ToM)--our ability to predict behaviors of others in terms of their underlying intentions--has been examined through false-belief (FB) tasks. We studied 12 Japanese early bilingual children (8-12 years of age) and 16 late bilingual adults (18-40 years of age) with FB tasks in Japanese [first language (L1)] and English [second language (L2)], using fMRI. Children recruited more br...
متن کاملMomentum switches
Certain continuous-time quantum walks can be viewed as scattering processes. These processes can perform quantum computations, but it is challenging to design graphs with desired scattering behavior. In this paper, we study and construct momentum switches, graphs that route particles depending on their momenta. We also give an example where there is no exact momentum switch, although we constru...
متن کاملThe Triune Brain: Limbic Mind Mind Plastic, Emotional Mind
Problem statement: The theory discussed is revealing, as compared to studies on the human brain, the fact that he has inherited the structure and organization of three fundamental types of reptiles, ancient or primitive mammals and mammals, or recent evolved. What is very disconcerting is that nature has been able to connect with each other and establish a sort of communication between them. Ap...

on6?kv, ens, sum, being, essence. It energises through the ponderable organ the brain, and the material organ subserves the immaterial essence, or vis vitce. The abrupt space that intervenes between the last portion of matter and the earliest dawn of intelligence is an unfathomable gulf, tantamount to infinitude?for infinite it must be, since nothing can fill it up. No correct reasoning can con...
