Complemented congruences on Ockham algebras
An Ockham algebra L = (L,∧,∨, f, 0, 1) that satisfies the identity f2n+m = fm, n ∈ N and m ∈ N0, is called a Kn,m-algebra. Generalizing some results obtained in [2], J. Varlet and T. Blyth, in [3, Chapter 8], study congruences on K1,1-algebras. In particular, they describe the complement (when it exists) of a principal congruence and characterize these congruences that are complemented. In this...

متن کاملOckham Efficiency Theorem for Random Empirical Methods
Ockham’s razor is the principle that, all other things being equal, rational scientists ought to prefer simpler theories to more complex ones. In recent years, philosophers have argued the simpler theories make better predictions, possess theoretical virtues like explanatory power, and have other pragmatic virtues like computational tractability. However, such arguments fail to explain why and ...
متن کاملThe Nominalist Semantics of Ockham and Buridan
Some historical-philosophical preliminaries This paper is going to outline the innovative semantic theories of the two great 14century nominalist thinkers whose work eventually gave rise to the quasi-institutional separation of the nominalist via moderna, the “modern way”, from the realist via antiqua, “the old way” of doing logic, science, philosophy, and theology in the late Middle Ages. The ...
متن کاملAll Brutes are Subhuman: Aristotle and Ockham on Private Negation
The mediaeval logic of Aristotelian privation, represented by Ockham’sexposition of All A is non-P as All S is of a type T that is naturally P and no S isP, is critically evaluated as an account of privative negation. It is argued thatthere are two senses of privative negation: (1) an intensifier (as in subhuman),the inverse of Neoplatonic hypernegation (superhuman), which is st...
