I here recall Ryle's analysis of Heterologicality, but broaden the discussion to comparable analyses not only of Heterologicality but also other puzzles about self-reference. Such matters have a crucial bearing on the debate between representational and non-representational theories of mind, as will be explained. 1 [1] The most remarkable thing about the so-called Heterologicality Paradox is th...

The bifurcations of generic heteroclinic loop with one nonhyperbolic equilibrium p1 and one hyperbolic saddle p2 are investigated, where p1 is assumed to undergo transcritical bifurcation. Firstly, we discuss bifurcations of heteroclinic loop when transcritical bifurcation does not happen, the persistence of heteroclinic loop, the existence of homoclinic loop connecting p1 (resp. p2) and the co...

A complete characterization of locally primitive normal Cayley graphs of metacyclic groups is given. Namely, let Γ = Cay(G,S) be such a graph, where G ∼= Zm.Zn is a metacyclic group and m = p1 1 p r2 2 · · · p rt t such that p1 < p2 < · · · < pt. It is proved that G ∼= D2m is a dihedral group, and val(Γ ) = p is a prime such that p|(p1(p1 − 1), p2 − 1, . . . , pt − 1). Moreover, three types of ...

We address the problem of polynomial time factoring RSA moduli N1 = p1q1 with the help of an oracle. As opposed to other approaches that require an oracle that explicitly outputs bits of p1, we use an oracle that gives only implicit information about p1. Namely, our oracle outputs a different N2 = p2q2 such that p1 and p2 share the t least significant bits. Surprisingly, this implicit informati...

Neonates are known to exhibit increased susceptibility to bacterial and viral infections and increasing evidence demonstrates that the increased susceptibility is related to their attenuated immune response to infections. The lung is equipped with an innate defense system involving both cellular and humoral mediators. The present study was performed to characterize the expression of inflammator...

Mice were immunized against ribosomal acidic proteins P1 and P2 from Artemia salina, and three kinds of monoclonal antibodies were isolated. One recognized P0 in addition to both P1 and P2 (anti-P). The other two recognized either P1 (anti-P1) or P2 (anti-P2) specifically and did not recognize P0. The anti-P antibody, but not anti-P1 or anti-P2, recognized a 22-amino acid peptide corresponding ...

The substrate specificity of recombinant human mitochondrial intermediate peptidase (hMIP) using a synthetic support-bound FRET peptide library is presented. The collected fluorescent beads, which contained the hydrolysed peptides generated by hMIP, were sequenced by Edman degradation. The results showed that this peptidase presents a remarkable preference for polar uncharged residues at P1 and...

In this single case study, visuospatial neglect patient P1 demonstrated a dissociation between an intact ability to make appropriate reflexive eye movements to targets in the neglected field with latencies of <400 ms, while failing to report targets presented at such durations in a separate verbal detection task. In contrast, there was a failure to evoke the usually robust Remote Distractor Eff...
