Reichenbach’s use of ‘posits’ to defend his frequentistic theory of probability has been criticized on the grounds that it makes unfalsifiable predictions. The justice of this criticism has blinded many to Reichenbach’s second use of a posit, one that can fruitfully be applied to current debates within epistemology. We show first that Reichenbach’s alternative type of posit creates a difficulty...

The purpose of present article is to examine the peristaltic flow of Jeffrey fluid in a curved channel. An electrically conducting fluid in the presence of radial applied magnetic field is considered. Analysis of heat and mass transfer is carried out. More generalized realistic constraints namely the convective conditions are utilized. Soret and Dufour effects are retained. Problems formulation...

We say that a subset T of Z 2 , the two dimensional innnite grid, tiles Z 2 if we can cover Z 2 with non-overlapping translates of T. No algorithm is known to decide whether a nite T Z 2 tiles Z 2. Here we present two algorithms, one for the case when jTj is prime, and another for the case when jTj = 4. Both algorithms generalize to the case, where we replace Z 2 with an arbitrary nitely genera...

Let T be a self-affine tile that is generated by an expanding integral matrix A and a digit set D. It is known that many properties of T are invariant under the Z-similarity of the matrix A. In [LW1] Lagarias and Wang showed that if A is a 2 × 2 expanding matrix with |det(A)| = 2, then the Z-similar class is uniquely determined by the characteristic polynomial of A. This is not true if |det(A)|...
