Changing Spaces: Canonization of Anglophone World Literature

In a Changing World Survey of the Literature

Finite canonization

The canonization theorem says that for given m, n for some m (the first one is called ER(n;m)) we have for every function f with domain [1, . . . , m], for some A ∈ [1, . . . , m], the question of when the equality f(i1, . . . , in) = f(j1, . . . , jn) (where i1 < · · · < in and j1 < · · · jn are from A) holds has the simplest answer: for some v ⊆ {1, . . . , n} the equality holds iff ∧

Language learning and language culture in a changing world

To  communicate  effectively,  learners  have  to  become  proficient  in  both  the  language  and  the culture of the target language.  Being aware of socio-cultural frameworks does not mean that as an outcome of instruction learners have to become "native-like," but an awareness of L2 cultural norms can allow learners to make their own informed choices of how to become competent and astute l...

some properties of fuzzy hilbert spaces and norm of operators

in this thesis, at first we investigate the bounded inverse theorem on fuzzy normed linear spaces and study the set of all compact operators on these spaces. then we introduce the notions of fuzzy boundedness and investigate a new norm operators and the relationship between continuity and boundedness. and, we show that the space of all fuzzy bounded operators is complete. finally, we define...

Changing minds in a changing world

I defend a general rule for updating beliefs that takes into account both the impact of new evidence and changes in the subject’s location. The rule combines standard conditioning with a “shifting” operation that moves the center of each doxastic possibility forward to the next point where information arrives. I show that well-known arguments for conditioning lead to this combination when cente...
