This article develops a philosophy of the humanities by reading C.P. Snow’s famous thesis of “the two cultures” through the early work of Alfred North Whitehead. I argue that, whereas Snow refers to Whitehead’s Science and the Modern World, he ultimately paves the way for a reductive interpretation of humanities scholarship, which is a move that can be repaired by delving into Snow’s own refere...

We prove that it is consistent that there is a non-reflexive Whitehead group, in fact one whose dual group is free. We also prove that it is consistent that there is a group A such that Ext(A,Z) is torsion and Hom(A,Z) = 0. As an application we show the consistency of the existence of new co-Moore spaces.

We review the interpretation of Whitehead products in homotopy theory as an entanglement topological defects ordered media.

While long ignored, the philosophy of Alfred North Whitehead has attracted considerable interest and wide academic reception since 2000s. One reason for renewed in Whitehead’s work is most certainly that his concepts offer a way out dualistic schemes thought have dominated conceptual framework West modernity. In my paper, I focus on undoing opposition between nature subjectivity, it crucial asp...

The A-polynomial of a knot in the 3-sphere S was introduced by Cooper, Culler, Gillet, Long and Shalen [CCGLS] in the 90’s. It describes the SL2(C)-character variety of the knot complement as viewed from the boundary torus. The A-polynomial carries a lot of information about the topology of the knot. For example, it distinguishes the unknot from other knots [BoZ, DG] and the sides of the Newton...

Is it possible to conceive of a conciliation between the relational ontologies Simondon and Whitehead? The similarities their work are evident, but so disparities. is perhaps most rigorous physicalist 20th century; Whitehead offered us strange energetic or sentimental idealism, thoroughly concrete in its actualization, involving God host eternal objects.
