  1. 1. Deterrence Games for the 21st Century : Representation, Theory and Evidence

    Author : Karl Sörenson; Till Grüne-Yanoff; Jan Ångström; Damon Coletta; KTH; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Deterrence Theory; Game Theory; Theory of Science; Philosophy; Filosofi; Krigsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Deterrence is the backbone of military strategy. Dissuading an opponent from taking a specific action by threat of violence is the definition of deterrence. From the outset of the Cold War there has been a strong link between the study of deterrence and game theoretic analysis. READ MORE

  2. 2. Mimesis as the Representation of Types : The Historical and Psychological Basis of an Aesthetic Idea

    Author : Michael Ranta; Margaretha Rossholm-Lagerlöf; Staffan Carlshamre; Lars-Olof Åhlberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Art theory; aesthetics; cognitive psychology; experimental aesthetics; history of aesthetics; mental representation; aesthetic preference; pictorial representation; prototypicality; schema theory; emotion theory; categorization; behaviourism; Art; Konstvetenskap; Art science;

    Abstract : This work attempts to investigate a long-standing tradition within the history of aesthetics according to which the function of pictorial representation consists, or ought to consist, of the rendering of general or idealized types rather than particulars. Proponents of this view may be found in various versions from antiquity to the present. READ MORE

  3. 3. Studies in knowledge representation : modeling change - the frame problem : pictures and words

    Author : Lars-Erik Janlert; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; analogical; artificial intelligence; digital; exemplification; frame problem; Goodman; knowledge representation; metaphysics; model; pictorial representation; symbol theory;

    Abstract : In two studies, the author attempts to develop a general symbol theoretical approach to knowledge representation.The first study, Modeling change -the frame problem, critically examines the - so far unsuccessful - attempts to solve the notorious frame problem. READ MORE

  4. 4. Effective Distribution Theory

    Author : Fredrik Dahlgren; Viggo Stoltenberg-Hansen; Dag Normann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computable mathematics; computable analysis; domain theory; domain representations; distribution theory.; Mathematical logic; Matematisk logik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we introduce and study a notion of effectivity (or computability) for test functions and for distributions. This is done using the theory of effective (Scott-Ershov) domains and effective domain representations. READ MORE

  5. 5. Constructions of n-cluster tilting subcategories using representation-directed algebras

    Author : Laertis Vaso; Martin Herschend; Øyvind Solberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Representation theory; n-cluster tilting subcategory; Auslander–Reiten theory; representation-directed algebra; Nakayama algebra; global dimension; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Abstract : One of the most useful tools in representation theory of algebras is Auslander–Reiten theory. A higher dimensional analogue has recently appeared, based on the notion of n-cluster tilting subcategories. READ MORE
