This article is concerned with reflection principles in the context of Cantor’s conception of the set theoretic universe. We argue that within a Cantorian conception of the set theoretic universe reflection principles can be formulated that confer intrinsic plausibility to strong

We provide a class of counter-examples to existence in a simple moral hazard problem in which the first-order approach is valid. These examples involve utility functions such as ln(w) in which utility diverges to negative infinity at a finite wealth level. In contrast to the Mirrlees example, unbounded likelihood ratios are not needed, and no sequence of contract can approach the full informati...

The notion of conformal infinity has a long history within the research in Einstein's theory of gravity. Today, "conformal infinity" is related with almost all other branches of research in general relativity, from quantisation procedures to abstract mathematical issues to numerical applications. This review article attempts to show how this concept gradually and inevitably evolved out of physi...

in this paper, construction rules of the root locus of a positive feedback system whose loop transfer function is not strictly proper have been investigated. the root locus method is being used since 1950. it is demonstrated that some of the steps in this technique are not general and for a positive feedback system whose loop transfer function is not strictly proper are not valid. to overcome t...
