The autoimmune tautology
Although autoimmune diseases exhibit contrasting epidemiological features, pathology, and clinical manifestations, three lines of evidence demonstrate that these diseases share similar immunogenetic mechanisms (that is, autoimmune tautology). First, clinical evidence highlights the co-occurrence of distinct autoimmune diseases within an individual (that is, polyautoimmunity) and within members ...
متن کاملTarski ’ S Finite Basis Problem via a ( T )
R. McKenzie has recently associated to each Turing machine T a finite algebra A(T ) having some remarkable properties. We add to the list of properties, by proving that the equational theory of A(T ) is finitely axiomatizable if T halts on the empty input. This completes an alternate (and simpler) proof of McKenzie’s negative answer to A. Tarski’s finite basis problem. It also removes the possi...
متن کاملThe Banach-tarski Paradox
Stefan Banach and Alfred Tarski introduced the phrase: “a pea can be chopped up and reassembled into the Sun,” a seemingly impossible concept. Using this theorem as motivation, this paper will explore the existence of non-measurable sets and paradoxical decompositions as well as provide a sketch of the proof of the paradox.
متن کاملMusic and the Brain, Literally
I spend my days working on the brain, specifically on how it makes mind and behavior possible. Most everyone believes that mind and behavior depend on the brain. But just how it all works is still mysterious. We have learned a lot, but we have got a long way to go. My particular area of research is about the relation between emotion and memory. For the past 25 years or so I have been using a si...
متن کاملThe Banach-Tarski Paradox
Author’s note: This paper was originally written for my Minor Thesis requirement of the Ph.D. program at Harvard University. The object of this requirement is to learn about a body of work that is generally not in one’s own field, in a short period of time (3 weeks), and write an article about it. I chose this topic because I thought it would be quite interesting to learn, and even more fun to ...
