An action of a group G is highly transitive if acts transitively on k-tuples distinct points for all k?1. Many examples groups with rich geometric or dynamical admit actions. We prove that admits such does not contain the subgroup finitary alternating permutations, and H confined G, then remains transitive, possibly after discarding finitely many points.

the holy koran is the eternal miracle of literature and eloquence. in the field of eloquence, ellipsis is an important issue. grammaticaltadmeen as a type of ellipsis has a special manifestation in the holy koran. tazmeen literally meaning insertion is applied when a verb in the text adds the meaning of another verb to itself and is used as the other word should be used in terms of transitivity...

The notion of a transitive closure of a fuzzy relation is very useful for clustering in pattern recognition, for fuzzy databases, etc. It is based on translating the standard definition of transitivity and transitive closure into fuzzy terms. This definition works fine, but to some extent it does not fully capture our understanding of transitivity. The reason is that this definition is based on...

The counterfactual tradition to defining actual causation has come a long way since Lewis started it off. However there are still important open problems that need to be solved. One of them is the (in)transitivity of causation. Endorsing transitivity was a major source of trouble for the approach taken by Lewis, which is why currently most approaches reject it. But transitivity has never lost i...

Since the Transitivity Hypothesis was introduced thirty four years ago, it has become one of the most influential approaches to the functioning of transitivity in natural language. Despite the huge impact of the approach, at least within functional linguistics, some fundamental theoretical and methodological problems still remain unsolved; this seriously undermines the entire approach. The aim ...

Abstract One of the goals science is to understand relation between a whole and its parts, as exemplified by problem certifying entanglement system from knowledge reduced states. Here, we focus on different but related question: can collection marginal information reveal new information? We answer this affirmatively show that (non-) entangled states may exhibit (meta)transitivity entanglement, ...

We study the transitivity of fuzzy preference relations, often considered as a fundamental property providing coherence to a decision process. We consider the transitivity of fuzzy relations w.r.t. conjunctors, a general class of binary operations on the unit interval encompassing the class of triangular norms usually considered for this purpose. Having fixed the transitivity of a large prefere...
