Abstract This paper presents a counterexample to the principle that all epistemic reasons for doxastic attitudes towards p are provided by evidence concerning . I begin motivating and clarifying associated picture of reasons, including notion proposition, which comprises both first- second-order evidence. then introduce from incoherent presenting three example cases. In each case, fact subject’...

We present a denotational semantics based on Banach spaces ; it is inspired from the familiar coherent semantics of linear logic, the role of coherence being played by the norm : coherence is rendered by a supremum, whereas incoherence is rendered by a sum, and cliques are rendered by vectors of norm at most 1. The basic constructs of linear (and therefore intuitionistic) logic are implemented ...

We analyze a large system of globally coupled phase oscillators whose natural frequencies are bimodally distributed. The dynamics of this system has been the subject of long-standing interest. In 1984 Kuramoto proposed several conjectures about its behavior; ten years later, Crawford obtained the first analytical results by means of a local center manifold calculation. Nevertheless, many questi...
