the symbolic cultural order becomes manifest through language in the case of texts and narratives and through images in the case of art. knowledge of the elements that compose the symbolic order is an essential analytical tool, above all for comparative studies of art, literature and religion. in this way, many of the symbolic references that exist in each culture can be illuminated by examples...

We introduce a general method for the study of memory in symbolic sequences based on higher-order Markov analysis. The process that best represents sequence is expressed as mixture matrices minimal orders, enabling definition so-called profile, which unambiguously reflects true order correlations. validated by recovering profiles tunable synthetic sequences. Finally, we scan real data and showc...

Symbolic Model Order Reduction (SMOR) is the problem of reducing a large circuit that contains symbolic circuit parameters to smaller low order models at its ports. Several methods, including symbol isolation, single frequency point reduction, and multiple frequency point reduction, are described and compared. Test circuits with simulation results are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and e...

this paper is an attempt to explore how lacanian concepts of desire, unconscious, as well as alienation are reflected in the major characters of vladimir vladimirovich nabokov’s lolita. before unleashing the new, inexplicable yet highly fascinating aspects of psychoanalysis by the advent of french poststructuralist and psychoanalyst jacques lacan, freudian psychoanalysis used to play the pivota...
