Since van der Sandt and Geurts have put forward and extensively applied the notion of a fundamental identity of presupposition and anaphora, something like a universal consensus seems to have developed that this view is basically correct. Supposing that it is, and further supposing that it entails an empirical hypothesis, there are a number of facts that have so far remained unaccounted for. Th...

Cells have certain definable characters. These characters show that cells (a) are all of essentially the same nature and (b) are units of structure. THE essence of this proposition can most easily be grasped by considering what would be left of the cell-theory if it were omitted. We should then be in the same position as was Leeuwenhoek (1674), who, having found that a number of tissues consist...

It is a classical problem in Fourier analysis to give conditions for a single sine or cosine series to be uniformly convergent. Several authors gave conditions for this problem supposing that the coefficients are monotone, non-negative or more recently, general monotone. There are also results for the regular convergence of double sine series to be uniform in case the coefficients are monotone ...

This paper deals with optimality conditions to solve nonlinear programming problems. The classical Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) optimality conditions are demonstrated through a cone approach, using the well known Farkas’ Lemma. These conditions are valid at a minimizer of a nonlinear programming problem if a constraint qualification is satisfied. First we prove the KKT theorem supposing the equalit...

This article presents an argument for the existence of God, showing that the evident phenomena are best explained by supposing that a God causes them. The argument is based on the inductive force of four very evident general phenomena: that there is a physical Universe; that it is governed by very simple natural laws; that those laws are such as to lead to the existence of human bodies; and tha...

The mesh-of-trees topology has very attractive properties if a distance-sensitive routing, such as store-andforward, is used. How its properties compare to meshes if distance-insensitive routing, such as wormhole, is used, was not previously understood. In this paper, we show that meshes of trees allow an elegant and optimal one-toall broadcast algorithm supposing that routers implement distanc...

The paper provides a framework for representing belief-contravening hypotheses in games of perfect information. The resulting t-extended information structures are used to encode the notion that a player has the disposition to behave rationally at a node. We show that there are models where the condition of all players possessing this disposition at all nodes (under their control) is both a nec...
