This paper addersses Lawson’s puzzlement about the absence of prediction in William Harvey’s and Marcello Malpighi’s views on capillaries. In addressing the context of that enquiry, it also addresses historiographic versus philosophical models of science, contexts of discovery versus justification, normative versus descriptive interpretations of the nature of science, and the role of simple dic...

We study the distribution of zeros of holomorphic Hecke cusp forms in several “thin” sets as the weight, k, tends to infinity. We obtain unconditional results for slowly shrinking (with k) hyperbolic balls. This relies on a new, effective, proof of Rudnick’s theorem and on an effective version of Quantum Unique Ergodicity for holomorphic forms, which we obtain in this paper. In addition, assumi...

Résumé. Cet article montre comment on peut utiliser la construction de Chu afin de simplifier la construction assez complexe de la catégorie ∗-autonome des boules qui sont réflexives et ζ-ζ∗-complètes donnée par le premier auteur dans les articles [Barr, 1976, 1979]. Abstract. This paper shows how the use of the “Chu construction” can simplify the rather complicated construction of the ∗-autono...

The Cayley 4-form ωCa is of fundamental importance both in the calibration theory of R. Harvey and H. B. Lawson [HL82], who calculated its comass ‖ωCa‖ using the non-associative algebra of the Cayley numbers, and in exceptional holonomy of type Spin(7) studied by R. Bryant [Br87] and D. Joyce [Jo00]. The Cayley form is self-dual and the triality property of SO(8) relates the representation on s...

The purpose of this contribution is four-fold. First, it seeks to provide an answer to the questions that have recently been posed, if not for the first time, by David Harvey (2000, p. 13). He recognises that globalisation “is now one of the most hegemonic concepts for understanding the political economy of international capitalism. And its uses extend far beyond the business world to embrace q...

We construct geometric representatives for the C/Zn fractional branes in terms of branes wrapping certain exceptional cycles of the resolution. In the process we use large radius and conifold-type monodromies, and also check some of the orbifold quantum symmetries. We find the explicit Seiberg-duality which connects our fractional branes to the ones given by the McKay correspondence. We also co...

The paper is concerned with the classical occupancy scheme with infinitely many boxes, in which n balls are thrown independently into boxes 1, 2, . . ., with probability pj of hitting the box j, where p1 ≥ p2 ≥ . . . > 0 and P∞ j=1 pj = 1. We establish joint normal approximation as n → ∞ for the numbers of boxes containing r1, r2, . . . , rm balls, standardized in the natural way, assuming only...
