The paper deals with an attempt to present an “abductive-transcendental” argument in favour of a particular version of structural realism (SR), dubbed Intermediate SR. In the first part of the paper the general structure of transcendental arguments is scrutinized with a close view on Kant’s original version and the prospect of their abductive variation. Then the role of symmetries in modern phy...

We study transcendental singularities of a Schröder map arising from a rational function f , using results from complex dynamics and Nevanlinna theory. These maps are transcendental meromorphic functions of finite order in the complex plane. We show that their transcendental singularities lie over the set where f is not semihyperbolic (unhyperbolic). In addition, if they are direct, then they l...

These days Mandelbrot set with transcendental function is an interesting area for mathematicians. New equations have been created for Mandelbrot set using trigonometric, logarithmic and exponential functions. Earlier, Ishikawa iteration has been applied to these equations and generate new fractals named as Relative Superior Mandelbrot Set with transcendental function. In this paper, the Mann it...

DETERMINISM in philosophical discussions of determinism I believe it is fair to say that there is not ordinarily a sharp separation of a process being deterministic and a process being predictable. Much of the philosophical talk about determinism proceeds as if it is understood that a deterministic process is necessarily predictable. Here is a typical quotation, taken from A. J. Ayer's essay " ...

The objective of this study was to determine the impact of stress reduction on blood pressure (BP) in adolescents by the Transcendental Meditation (TM) program. African-American adolescents (aged 16.2 +/- 1.3 years) with high normal systolic BP were randomly assigned to either 4-month TM (n = 50) or health education control (n = 50) groups. Ambulatory 24-h BP measures were recorded at pretest, ...

This paper attempts to marshall some of the evidence of the transcendental character of Heidegger’s later thinking, despite his repudiation of any form of transcendental thinking, including that of his own earlier project of fundamental ontology. The transcendental significance of that early project is first outlined through comparison and contrast with the diverse transcendental turns in the p...
