چکیده
The problem with formal methods in philosophy is not whether to apply them or not. For most analytic philosophers they are basic and unquestionably legitimate and fruitful. The problem is their adequacy. Sometimes there is too much use of formal methods in a field, and their richness and the diversity of the formalisms overkills the part of the field and the questions that they are supposed to illuminate. At other moments, they miss the target and fail to capture what is essential. So the important question is when to use them so that they can shoot correctly at their target without too much collateral damage.

متن کاملResults on Engel Fuzzy Subgroups
In the classical group theory there is an open question: Is every torsion free n-Engel group (for n ≥ 4), nilpotent?. To answer the question, Traustason [11] showed that with some additional conditions all 4-Engel groups are locally nilpotent. Here, we gave some partial answer to this question on Engel fuzzy subgroups. We show that if μ is a normal 4-Engel fuzzy subgroup of ...
