چکیده

This paper contains a survey of the A-theory of simplicial complexes and graphs, a combinatorial homotopy theory developed recently.The initialmotivation arises from the use of simplicial complexes as models for a variety of complex systems and their dynamics. This theory diverges from classical homotopy theory in several crucial aspects. It is related to prior work in matroid theory, graph theory, and work on subspace arrangements. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Adopting Constructivist versus Objectivist Grounded Theory in Health Care Research: A Review of the Evidence

Background and aim: Grounded theory has taken some different theoretical perspectives since its creation in 1967 by Barney Glaser. Considering that applying grounded theory partly depends on an awareness of its philosophical perspectives, gaining knowledge about these various perspectives is required for health care professionals who are interested in studying the social processes. This review ...

Analytical Solution for the Forced Vibrations of a Nano-Resonator with Cubic Nonlinearities Using Homotopy Analysis Method

Many of nonlinear systems in the field of engineering such as nano-resonator and atomic force microscope can be modeled based on Duffing equation. Analytical frequency response of this system helps us analyze different interesting nonlinear behaviors appearing in its response due to its rich dynamics. In this paper, the general form of Duffing equation with cubic nonlinearity as well as par...

Homotopy theory of smooth compactifications of algebraic varieties

In this short note we show that the homotopy category of smooth compactifications of smooth algebraic varieties is equivalent to the homotopy category of smooth varieties over a field of characteristic zero. As an application we show that the functor sending a variety to the p-th step of the Hodge filtration of its complex cohomology is representable in the homotopy category of simplicial presh...
