In the analysis of social networks adequate concepts are necessary to indicate various types and configurations of social groups such as peer groups, coteries, acquaintance groups, etc. The problem has theoretically been argued convincingly by e.g. Kadushin (1968), who introduced the general concept of "social circle". In the actual empirical study of social networks there is therefore a need f...

Measures on clans of fuzzy sets are traditionally studied as certain functionals on collections of [0, 1]-valued functions. The goal of this paper is to make first steps towards establishing this part of fuzzy mathematics as a formal theory over a suitable predicate fuzzy logic. Two concepts of formal measure theory are sketched within Henkin-style ω-order fuzzy logic.

In the last decade’s media discourse, particular Arab immigrant groups received name ‘Arab clans’ and have been portrayed as criminal kinship networks irrespective of actual involvement in crime. We question how are categorized, criminalized, racialized German media. To answer this question, we collected clan-related mainstream articles published between 2010 2020. Our first-step quantitative t...

A clan is a compact connected topological semigroup with identity. Professor A. D. Wallace has raised the following question [9]: Is a clan of real »X» matrices with non-negative entries, which contains the identity matrix, necessarily acyclic? That is to say, do all of the Alexander-Cech cohomology groups with arbitrary coefficients (in positive dimensions) vanish? In this paper the slightly s...
