On simplified axiomatic foundations of special relativity
Year 2010 marks the 100-th anniversary since the paper by Ignatowsky was published that was devoted to the axiomatic analysis of the special theory of relativity. Despite such a long history, the ideas put forward by Ignatowsky, and later developed by Franck and Rothe, still have not earned a proper place in the physical curriculum. As a celebration of this jubilee, we would like to draw the at...
متن کاملOn the Axiomatic Foundations of Ranking Systems
Reasoning about agent preferences on a set of alternatives, and the aggregation of such preferences into some social ranking is a fundamental issue in reasoning about uncertainty and multiagent systems. When the set of agents and the set of alternatives coincide, we get the ranking systems setting. A famous type of ranking systems are page ranking systems in the context of search engines. In th...
متن کاملOn the axiomatic foundations of the theory of Hermitian forms
In recent work on some topological problems (7), I was forced to adopt a complicated definition of 'Hermitian form' which differed from any in the literature. A recent paper by Tits (5) on quadratic forms over division rings contains a new and simple definition of these. A major objective of this paper is to formulate both these definitions in somewhat more general terms, and to show that they ...
متن کاملAxiomatic Foundations of Multiplier Preferences∗
This paper axiomatizes the robust control criterion of multiplier preferences introduced by Hansen and Sargent (2001). The axiomatization relates multiplier preferences to other classes of preferences studied in decision theory. Some properties of multiplier preferences are generalized to the broader class of variational preferences, recently introduced by Maccheroni, Marinacci and Rustichini (...
متن کاملAxiomatic Foundations of Acceptability Semantics
An argument is a reason or justification of a claim. It has an intrinsic strength and may be attacked by other arguments. Hence, the evaluation of its overall strength becomes mandatory, especially for judging the reliability of its claim. Such an evaluation is done by acceptability semantics. The aim of this paper is to set up the foundations of acceptability semantics. Foundations are importa...
