Where do linguistic forms come from? Researchers have proposed accounts based on rules, conventions, constraints, statistical regularities, discourse patterns, language contact, neurology, physical dynamics and genes. What is common to all of these forces is that they must all make their final impact at the moment of speaking. Some of these forces operate within a narrow time frame. For example...

By considering an enterprise to be a system of agents that observe and construct theories about themselves immediately raises issues of closure. These in turn pose questions about the identity and evolution of that which is exhibiting such closure. We address these questions by assigning enterprises to a class of systems whose models are triply articulated. The existential articulation provides...

A new idea, which is deeply rooted in noncommutative geometry, is proposed in this paper to connect general relativity, quantum theory thermodynamics, cosmology and the foundation of quantum mechanics. The emergence of time and the arrow of time become natural in the new scheme. 1. the issue of time An important question is asked explicitly in some literatures such as [2], which concerns with t...

We study the dynamics of three-dimensional polaron - a quantum particle coupled to bosonic fields in quasi-classical regime. In this case are very intense and corresponding degrees freedom can be treated semiclassically. prove that such regime effective for particles is approximated by one generated time-dependent point interaction, i.e., singular perturbation Laplacian supported point. As by-p...

We implement a dynamical resummation method (DRM) as an extension of the renormalization group to study time evolution infrared dressing in nongauge theories. Super renormalizable and models feature divergences similar those theory at critical point, motivating improvement propagator that yields power-law decay survival probability $\ensuremath{\propto}{t}^{\ensuremath{-}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\De...

Abstract We introduce the concept of time emergence economic impacts (ToEI), which identifies initial moment when climate change impact signal exceeds a previously defined threshold past output shocks in given geographic area. compute ToEI using probabilistic projections and functions from three integrated assessment models change: DICE, RICE CLIMRISK. Our results demonstrate that, terms busine...

We describe a model of a stockmarket in which independent adaptive agents can buy and sell stock on a central market The overall market behavior such as the stock price time series is an emergent property of the agents behavior This approach to modelling a market is contrasted with conventional rational expectations approaches Our model does not necessarily converge to an equilibrium and can sh...

The physiological process of germination depends on several environmental factors such as temperature, water potential, light, nutrients and smoke. Water and temperature are determinant factors for seed germination. Both factors can, separately or jointly, affect the germination percentage and germination rate. The effect of temperature on germination and water potential on germination canoften...
