We reformulate the ‘separated quantum entities’ theorem, i.e. the theorem that proves that two separated quantum entities cannot be described by means of standard quantum mechanics, within the fully elaborated operational Geneva-Brussels approach to quantum axiomatics, where the basic mathematical structure is that of a State Property System. We give arguments that show that the core of this re...

THEORY It is axiomatic that active rheumatoid disease may produce a large effusion into the knee, and it has been shown that quadriceps contraction causes a large rise in intracapsular pressure (Jayson and Dixon 1970a). The weakest point of the capsule yields to the rise in pressure: protrusion occurs into the popliteal fossa and may track into the calf. Elimination of the cause of fluid produc...

Cohen’s class of time-frequency distributions for continuous signals has recently been to extended to discrete signals using both an axiomatic approach and an operator theory approach. In this paper, we investigate the formulation of several classical timefrequency distributions (Wigner, Rihaczek, Margenau-Hill, Page, Levin, Born-Jordan, spectrogram) in the discrete Cohen’s classes. The main re...

This paper states necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence, uniqueness, and updating according to Bayes’ rule, of subjective probabilities representing individuals’ beliefs. The approach is preference based, and the result is an axiomatic subjective expected utility model of Bayesian decision making under uncertainty with statedependent preferences. The theory provides foundations ...

Memory models have been described using many techniques. In this paper we describe a framework for specifying memory models using both axiomatic and operational approaches. We show how, to be equivalent, axiomatic definitions must be prefix-closed.
