Nous définissons des algèbres de Hall étendues tordues de catégories triangulées et montrons que, dans certains cas, elles sont bien définies même lorsque leurs contreparties non étendues ne le sont pas. Nous montrons que chaque catégorie exacte aux équivalences faibles avec une structure supplémentaire appropriée donne naturellement lieu à une algèbre de Hall étendue tordue de sa catégorie homotopique. Nous montrons que cette construction récupère la catégorification par Bridgeland des groupes quantiques via les algèbres de Hall de complexes et sa généralisation par Lu et Peng. Nous montrons que les algèbres ainsi définies sont fonctorielles par rapport aux foncteurs exacts respectant les équivalences faibles. Cela nous permet de prouver l’invariance par basculement des algèbres de Bridgeland et de catégorifier les symétries de Lusztig des groupes quantiques. Sous des conditions de finitude appropriées, pour deux structures exactes différentes sur la même catégorie additive, l’une ayant strictement moins de conflations que l’autre, nous définissons une filtration sur l’algèbre de Hall de cette dernière dont le gradué associé est l’algèbre de Hall de la première. Cette construction généralise les filtrations de type PBW quantiques. Mots-clés Algèbres de Hall, localisation des catégories, catégorification, groupes quantiques, dégéneres- cences de PBW 5 6 Hall algebras and localization of categories Abstract This thesis concerns Hall algebras. We define twisted extended Hall algebras of triangulated categories and show that in some cases they are well-defined even when their non-extended coun- terparts are not. We show that each exact category with weak equivalences with an appropriate extra structure naturally gives rise to a twisted extended Hall algebra of its homotopy category. We prove that this construction recovers Bridgeland’s categorification of quantum groups via Hall algebras of complexes and its generalization due to Lu and Peng. We prove that the algebras thus defined are functorial under exact functors respecting weak equivalences. This allows us to prove the tilting invariance of Bridgeland’s algebras and to categorify Lusztig’s symmetries of quantum groups. Under suitable finiteness conditions, for two different exact structures on the same additive category with one having strictly less conflations than the other, we define a filtration on the Hall algebra of the latter whose associate graded is the Hall algebra of the former. This construction generalizes quantum PBW-type filtrations. Keywords Hall algebras, localization of categories, categorification, quantum groups, PBW degenerations.

Elles sont apparues pour la première fois dans les travaux de Steinitz [74] et Hall [27] sur des p−groupes finis commutatifs. Plus tard, elles sont réapparues dans les travaux de Ringel [64] sur les groupes quantiques. Il a introduit la notion de l’algèbre de Hall d’une catégorie abélienne avec des espaces de dimension finie Hom - et Ext1. En tant qu’espace vectoriel, elle a une base paramétrisée par les classes d’isomorphisme des objets de la catégorie. La multiplication capte des informations sur les extensions entre les objets. On peut considérer cela comme une algèbre de fonctions constructibles sur le champ d’objets de la catégorie, avec le produit de convolution donné par les correspondances de Hecke. Ringel a construit un isomorphisme entre l’algèbre de Hall torduée de la catégorie de repré- sentations d’un carquois de Dynkin simplement lacé Q sur le corps fini Fq et la partie nilpotente du groupe quantique correspondant, spécialisé à la racine carré de q : Up (n ) !H∼ (rep (Q)): q + tw Fq Plus tard, Green [26] a généralisé ce résultat à un carquois valu Q arbitraire en montrant un iso- morphisme entre la partie nilpotente de l’algèbre enveloppante universelle quantifiée de l’algèbre de Kac-Moody correspondante et la “sous-algèbre de composition” dans H (rep (Q)) engen- tw Fq drée par les classes des objets simples. À l’aide du groupe de Grothendieck de la catégorie des représentations de carquois, il introduit une version étendue de l’algèbre de Hall qui récupère la partie de Borel du groupe quantique.

  • Wittgenstein's Critical Physiognomy
    Nordic Wittgenstein Review 3 (No. 1) 2014 Daniel Wack [email protected] Wittgenstein’s Critical Physiognomy Abstract In saying that meaning is a physiognomy, Wittgenstein invokes a philosophical tradition of critical physiognomy, one that developed in opposition to a scientific physiognomy. The form of a critical physiognomic judgment is one of reasoning that is circular and dynamic, grasping intention, thoughts, and emotions in seeing the expressive movements of bodies in action. In identifying our capacities for meaning with our capacities for physiognomic perception, Wittgenstein develops an understanding of perception and meaning as oriented and structured by our shared practical concerns and needs. For Wittgenstein, critical physiognomy is both fundamental for any meaningful interaction with others and a capacity we cultivate, and so expressive of taste in actions and ways of living. In recognizing how fundamental our capacity for physiognomic perception is to our form of life Wittgenstein inherits and radicalizes a tradition of critical physiognomy that stretches back to Kant and Lessing. Aesthetic experiences such as painting, poetry, and movies can be vital to the cultivation of taste in actions and in ways of living. Introduction “Meaning is a physiognomy.” –Ludwig Wittgenstein (PI, §568) In claiming that meaning is a physiognomy, Wittgenstein appears to call on a discredited pseudo-science with a dubious history of justifying racial prejudice and social discrimination in order to 113 Daniel Wack BY-NC-SA elucidate his understanding of meaning. Physiognomy as a science in the eighteenth and nineteenth century aimed to provide a model of meaning in which outer signs serve as evidence for judgments about inner mental states.

  • IS GOD in HEAVEN? John Morreall Religion Department the College of William and Mary
    IS GOD IN HEAVEN? John Morreall Religion Department The College of William and Mary 1. Introduction t first glance, this question may seem as silly as the quip “Is the Pope Catholic?” For in the Biblical traditions what Ais older and more accepted than the idea that God is in heaven? In his prayer dedicating the temple, Solomon says over and over, “Hear in heaven your dwelling place (I Kings 8:30, 32, 34, 36, 39, 43, 45, 49), and many Jewish prayers are addressed to God in heaven. The central prayer of Christians, composed by Jesus, begins, “Our Father, who art in heaven.” Both the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed say that Jesus ascended into heaven, where he is now “seated at the right hand of the Father.” What I will show, however, is that, far from being an obvious truth, the claim that God is in heaven is logically incoherent, and so necessarily false. I will begin by presenting four features of the traditional concept of heaven, two from the Hebrew Bible, and two from the New Testament and early Christianity. All of these features were developed at a time when God was thought of as a physical being. But, I will then argue, once Christians thought of God as nonphysical, the traditional concept of heaven was no longer acceptable. My argument is that: 1. Heaven is a place. 2. Only what is physical is located in a place. 3. God is not physical. 4. So God is not located in a place. 5. So God is not located in heaven.

The first part works through the argument for the existence of movement in the Physics. This argument includes distinctive innovations in the structure of being, notably the simultaneous unity and manyness of being: while material and form are one thing, they are two in being. This makes it possible for Aristotle to argue that movement is not intrinsically related to what is not: what comes to be does not emerge from non‐being, it comes from something that is in a different sense. The second part turns to the Metaphysics to show that and how the lineage of potency and activity the inquiry into movement. A central problem is that activity or actuality, energeia, does not at first seem to be intrinsically related to a completeness or end, telos. With the unity of different senses of being at stake, Aristotle establishes that it is by showing that activity or actuality is movement most of all, and that movement has and is a complete end.

  • Colloquium 7 What Use Is Aristotle's Organon? Robin Smith
    Colloquium 7 What Use Is Aristotle's Organon? Robin Smith My title is ambiguous. I might be construed as asking what use we, today, as philosophers, can make of the collection of treatises which has been known since the time of the Aristotelian commentators as the "organon." These treatises are, in the main, a collection of works on logic and closely related subjects, including fallacious arguments and demonstrative sci- ence. Tradition regarded them as giving Aristotle's account of scientific philosophical method: the "instrument" necessary for the attainment of knowledge. It was as such that Francis Bacon rejected Aristotle's Organon and offered his own as its replace- ment. Scientific method, he thought, should be a way to attain new knowledge; but he saw in the Aristotelian procedures he had learned at school nothing but rules for argumentation and deduction, which could never lead to the enlargement of what one already knew. For the purposes he took to be important, then, he found the Aristotelian instrument useless. More recent philosophical interpretation of Aristotle has been perhaps more sympathetic to its philosophical superstructure. If we regard the picture of demonstrative science of the Posterior Analytics as an account of scientific explanation rather than an account of scien- tific discovery, its plausibility is much greater. However, the logical theories on which Aristotle relies, especially its theory of inference, are now more or less universally recognized to be inadequate to any formalization even of the sciences Aristotle himself knew: Greek mathematical demonstrations steadfastly resist any translation into categorical syllogisms. Even the use of modern formal methods to interpret Aristotle's works seems at best to permit us to congratulate him for having come close, in his awkward way, to something we have a much better grasp of now.

The goal of this deliverable is to present a systematic approach of deriving security requirements for the automotive Electrical and/or Electronic (E/E) systems. It suggests an adaption of generic security engineering process for the automotive domain. The deliverable presents state-of-the-art threat analysis and risk assessment methodologies, processes, frameworks and tools, considering various industrial domains, for example, IT security, telecommunications, software engineering and defense. It presents the results obtained from performing a critical review of the state-of-the-art threat analysis and risk assessment in the context of the automotive industry. Based on this, a new security model − HEAVENS security model − for the automotive industry is proposed to facilitate deriving security requirements for the automotive E/E systems.

  • Aristotle on Primary Substance
    24.200: Ancient Philosophy Prof. Sally Haslanger November 1, 2004 Aristotle on Primary Substance I. Substance in the Categories In the Categories, Aristotle takes primary substances to be ordinary individuals like Socrates. We noted in connection with this view that a primary substance must be what is both ontologically and epistemically basic, i.e., they must be those things on which the existence of everything else depends, and on which our systematic knowledge depends. Aristotle's view in the Categories that primary substances are ordinary concrete individuals depended on his acceptance of what we called the subject criterion. I.e., primary substances are the primary logical subjects, i.e., they are that in which properties (qualities, quantities, etc.) inhere, and which are themselves the members of kinds (species). "A substance --that which is called a substance most strictly, primarily, and most of all-- is that which is neither said of a subject nor in a subject." (Cat. 2a11) Primary substances are also the subjects of change: "It seems most distinctive of substance that what is numerically one and the same is able to receive contraries [i.e., contrary properties]." (Cat. 4a10) (E.g., a single individual may become hot, having been cold, or may change from being 5' tall to being 5'2" tall.) In his discussion of change in Physics I: 7-9, Aristotle feels the need to accommodate both the demand that in any change something remain through that change, and the demand that there be something "new" as a product of the change. To handle these demands, he distinguishes three "elements" in any change: the matter, the form, the lack.

  • Phi 260: History of Philosophy I Prof
    Phi 260: History of Philosophy I Prof. Brandon C. Look University of Kentucky Spring 2007 Aristotle’s Metaphysics I. The Nature of Substance According to Aristotle, “there is a science that studies being insofar as it is being.” (1003a21) This is what he elsewhere calls “first philosophy”. And the object of his Metaphysics is just this: to study being in general, to study the nature of existence in its most general aspect. While the special sciences (biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics) focus on specific aspects of existent things (things insofar as they are alive, or composed of atoms and bonded in certain ways, or matter, forces, or energy, or measures of quantity), metaphysics looks at the common features of being in all these sciences. In Metaphysics IV.2, Aristotle writes that “being is spoken of in many ways, but always in reference to one thing.” (1003a34) That one thing is substance: “For some things are called beings because they are substances, others because they are attributes of substance, others because they are a road to substance, or because they are perishings or privations or qualities of substance, or productive or generative of substance or of things spoken of with reference to it, or because they are negations of one of these or of substance.” (1003b6-10) It is the job of the philosopher engaged in metaphysics to “grasp the principles and causes of substances.” (1003a19) Or, as he puts it in Book VII, “the old question… ‘What is being?’ is just the question ‘What is substance?’” (1028b3) In Book VII, Chapter 3, we learn that “substance is spoken of, if not in several ways, at any rate in four main cases.
