We generalize the main theorem of Rieffel for Morita equivalence of W -algebras to the case of unital dual operator algebras: two unital dual operator algebras A,B have completely isometric normal representations α, β such that α(A) = [Mβ(B)M] ∗ and β(B) = [Mα(A)M] ∗ for a ternary ring of operators M (i.e. a linear space M such that MMM ⊂ M) if and only if there exists an equivalence functor F ...

The dynamic interplay between reflexive and controlled determinants of behavior is one of the most general organizing principles of brain function. A powerful analogue of this interplay is seen in the antisaccade task, which pits reflexive and willed saccadic mechanisms against one another. Event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging of the human brain showed greater prestimulus prepara...

We present the beginnings of an account of how representations and processes developed for the purposes of reflective reasoning provide a basis for reflexive reasoning as well. Specifically, we show how the symbolic-connectionist representations that underlie the DORA model (Doumas & Hummel, 2005), and the comparison based routines that DORA exploits in the service of addressing reflective prob...

The article discusses the definition of reflection as an activity and examines main factors that determine kinds reflection. According to author article, can be defined by following formula: direction attention EXPERIENCE for “detection” its FORMS their fixation means certain SEMIOTIC TOOLS carried out sake achieving some PURPOSE. In this formulation, terms “experience”, “form”, “semiotic tools...

We show that there exists a separable reflexive Banach space into which every separable uniformly convex Banach space isomorphically embeds. This solves a problem of J. Bourgain. We also give intrinsic characterizations of separable reflexive Banach spaces which embed into a reflexive space with a block q-Hilbertian and/or a block p-Besselian finite dimensional decomposition.
