Throughout this paper, G denotes a simple and simply connected algebraic group over C of rank r and H is a Cartan subgroup, with Lie algebras g = LieG and h = LieH. Let R be the root system of the pair (G,H), W the Weyl group, and Λ ⊆ h the coroot lattice. Fix once and for all a positive Weyl chamber, i.e. a set of simple roots ∆. The geometric invariant theory quotient of g by the adjoint acti...

The Lilian Greg Centre was opened in October, 1919, in memory of the late Miss Lilian Greg, a very brilliant teacher, who threw up a great career in order to devote her life and energies to developing to the utmost the life of one mentally deficient child whom she had adopted. In this work Miss Greg was singularly successful, and made the little girl, Marjorie Pasley, a joy, not only to herself...

ARSTRACT. The problem with model-theoretic modal semantics is that it provides only the formal beginnings of an account of the semantics of modal languages. In the case of non-modal language, we bridge the gap between semantics and mere model theory, by claiming that a sentence is true just in cast it is true in an intended model. Truth in a model is given by the model theory, and an intended m...
