This book offers an original contribution to the foundations of logic and mathematics, and focuses on the internal logic of mathematical theories, from arithmetic or number theory to algebraic geometry. Arithmetical logic is the term used to refer to the internal logic of classical arithmetic, here called Fermat-Kronecker arithmetic, and combines Fermat’s method of infinite descent with Kronecker’s general arithmetic of homogeneous polynomials. The book also includes a treatment of theories in physics and mathematical physics to underscore the role of arithmetic from a constructivist viewpoint. The scope of the work intertwines historical, mathematical, logical and philosophical dimensions in a unified critical perspective; as such, it will appeal to a broad readership from mathematicians to logicians, to philosophers interested in foundational questions. Researchers and graduate students in the fields of philosophy and mathematics will benefit from the author’s critical approach to the foundations of logic and mathematics.

Bones, Les Experts,. beaucoup de séries TV se sont construites sur la résolution d'affaires criminelles. Si vous voulez connaître le dessous des cartes de ces enquêtes criminelles à suspense, alors ce livre est fait pour vous. Et dans l'éventualité où vous avez définitivement évincé le petit écran de votre vie "idienne, il est peu probable que vous échappiez à l'intérêt croissant de toute notre société pour les analyses scientifiques mises en œuvre dans les enquêtes policières. Ces questions, parfois macabres, toujours complexes, nous concernent aussi parce qu'elles traitent de la mort et de notre peur devant ses ravages : comment identifier une victime grâce aux prélèvements ADN, à l'étude dentaire ? Que peuvent-nous apprendre les ongles, les os ? Comment différencier le squelette d'un homme, d'une femme et quel âge lui donner ? Comment la victime est-elle décédée ? L'anthropologie judiciaire est là pour tenter d'apporter les réponses ; véritable auxiliaire de justice destiné à prouver, identifier ou corroborer, cette science met en œuvre nombre de spécialités comme l'étude des ossements, de la morphologie faciale…ou des insectes nécrophages. L'auteur Guy Gauthier, professeur d'anthropologie au collège Marie- Victorin de Montréal au Québec, nous décrit les investigations menées dans les enquêtes de nombreux cas historiques et les conclusions qui en ont permis le dénouement : vous saurez ainsi comment Klaus Barbie a été identifié, si Napoléon Bonaparte a été empoisonné, ou ce que mangeait l'Homme des glaces.

This book is a practical guide that will assist ENT doctors in interpreting swallowing videoendoscopies correctly and in choosing complementary instrumental examinations to consolidate or exclude their provisional diagnosis. In addition, it provides speech-language pathologists with valuable hints on how to treat patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia more efficiently. The book is constructed around videoendoscopic features. The relevance of these features to diagnosis and treatment is carefully described with the aid of numerous high-quality illustrations. Beyond this, the relationship of videoendoscopy to two further instrumental examinations – videofluorography and pharyngeal manometry– and to the three treatment paths of texture adaptation, rehabilitation, and surgery is explained. The use of pictograms in this context helps to elucidate the connections, creating in the reader’s mind “clusters of behaviors” of benefit in clinical practice. The book also includes a short summary on swallowing anatomy and physiology, a chapter on medications inducing dysphagia, key take-home messages, and suggestions for further reading. .

Securitization is widely used around the world, and structured products are one of the largest fixed-income asset classes. This textbook guides readers through the complexity of this financial technique and first introduces them to the mechanics of securitization and makes the key concepts, techniques and logic of this field accessible for teachers and students alike. Further, the textbook presents a systematic economic analysis of securitization, asking and answering why it exists, how it works, why it has failed, how complex structures operate, why they are so complex, and many other related questions. The author offers a unique approach, and combines detailed discussions of theoretical economics models with advanced empirical research in order to confront them to the perspective of an experienced practitioner in this market. .

Advancing the experimental study of superfluids relies on increasingly sophisticated techniques. This work develops and demonstrates the loading of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) into nearly arbitrary trapping potentials, with a resolution improved by a factor of seven when compared to reported systems. These advanced control techniques have now been adopted by several cold atoms labs around the world. The book describes how this BEC system was used to study 2D superfluid dynamic. In particular, negative temperature vortex states in a two-dimensional quantum fluid were observed. These states were first predicted by Lars Onsager 70 years ago and have significance to 2D turbulence in quantum and classical fluids, long-range interacting systems, and defect dynamics in high-energy physics. These experiments have established dilute-gas BECs as the prototypical system for the experimental study of point vortices and their nonequilibrium dynamics. Also presented is a new approach to superfluid circuitry based on classical acoustic circuits, whose conceptual and quantitative superiority over previous lumped-element models is demonstrated. This approach has established foundational principles of superfluid circuitry that will impact the design of future transport experiments and new generation quantum devices, such as atomtronics circuits and superfluid sensors.

Dans cet essai de cosmologie sauvage, je ne me suis pas adressé aux marquises et aux abbesses, comme le fit Fontenelle, mon lointain prédécesseur, en son temps. Mon public est profane et il refuse d’emblée la docte ignorance (docta ignorantia) des métaphysiciens et des mystiques, femmes savantes ou esprits crédules. Il se méfie aussi bien des mystifications dont se parent parfois les savants et les scientifiques, aussi bien que des fabulations des auteurs de science-fiction, mais il tend l’oreille souvent aux poètes, écrivains et philosophes inquiets. La cosmologie ou théorie de l’univers est-elle possible et n’est-elle pas limitée par un horizon, l’horizon du visible ou de l’observable ? Imaginer un au-delà de l’horizon est la tâche de la cosmologie spéculative qui a remplacé la métaphysique et qui prend alors la relève de la mythologie pour inventer la scène primitive d’une mer originelle. Cette eau originaire, que l’on retrouve chez Thalès dans la philosophie grecque présocratique, n’est pas si éloignée des fluctuations du vide quantique et le mythe de l’océan primitif peut être perçu comme la matrice de toutes les cosmogonies. Mais qui n’abordera jamais les rives de l’origine ? La limite antérieure de l’origine rejoint la limite de l'horizon : toutes deux sont récessives et l’on ne peut concevoir l’univers que comme une sphère, ce qu’un autre penseur présocratique, Parménide, avait bien vu. C’est dans cette sphère que l’observateur local se tient et tient ensemble l’origine et l’horizon pour mesurer l’empan de l’univers, avec la Terre en son centre.

La philosophie des sciences définit les critères de scientificité qui permettent d'évaluer la validité et la pertinence des théories scientifiques. Elle a donc une vocation critique. Cet ouvrage propose une analyse de la pratique scientifique aussi bien dans les sciences exactes que dans les sciences sociales et humaines, et ce, à partir d'une perspective constructiviste qui donne un accès direct à la logique interne de l'entreprise scientifique. Après avoir fait la génèse du savoir scientifique contemporain, l'auteur examine plus particulièrement les deux grandes théories du XXe siècle, soit la théorie de la relativité et la mécanique quantique. Il ouvre ensuite une voie singulière vers les sciences humaines qui débouchera sur un tour d'horizon éclairé du structuralisme et des thématiques du langage dans les sciences sociales et humaines. De Hegel à Gadamer et de Lévi-Strauss à Foucault, la rétrospective critique qui se déploie apparaît ici comme un complément nécessaire à la discussion du constructivisme contemporain. Cette introduction à la philosophie des sciences s'adresse tout aussi bien aux philosophes et aux scientifiques intéressés au problème des fondements qu'aux étudiants en philosophie.
