 Shan Gao, "Collapse of the Wave Function: Models, Ontology, Origin, and Implications" English | ISBN: 1108428983 | 2018 | 358 pages | MOBI | 11 MB This is the first single volume about the collapse theories of quantum mechanics, which is becoming a very active field of research in both physics and philosophy. In standard quantum mechanics, it is postulated that when the wave function of a quantum system is measured, it no longer follows the Schrödinger equation, but instantaneously and randomly collapses to one of the wave functions that correspond to definite measurement results. However, why and how a definite measurement result appears is unknown. A promising solution to this problem are collapse theories in which the collapse of the wave function is spontaneous and dynamical. Chapters written by distinguished physicists and philosophers of physics discuss the origin and implications of wave-function collapse, the controversies around collapse models and their ontologies, and new arguments for the reality of wave function collapse. This is an invaluable resource for students and researchers interested in the philosophy of physics and foundations of quantum mechanics.  Collaborative Poetry Translation: Processes, Priorities, and Relationships in the Poettrio Method by W.N. Herbert, Francis R.

Herbert, Francis R. Jones English | 2025 | ISBN: 0367141183 | 239 Pages | True PDF | 13.2 MB  Collaboration in Education (Routledge Research in Education) By Judith J. Slater, Ruth Ravid 2010 | 250 Pages | ISBN: 0415806216 | PDF | 3 MB Collaboration in Educationestablishes a needed framework for school/university collaborations that will be critical for others wishing to reproduce and participate in these partnerships. The contributors explore the elements necessary for sustainable collaboration in order to provide a frame of reference for others doing this work. This volume will help readers to ask the correct questions in thinking through school/university collaboration, such as: Does this collaboration make a true change in the way each parent organization operates in the future? Does it meet the needs of a more complex and changing work environment for universities and schools? Does it impact beyond the participant institutions and inform the field by producing knowledge of use to others? This volume also includes extensive analyses of ongoing school/university projects in the United States, Asia and Europe.  Jessica Douthwaite, "Cold War Museology" English | ISBN: 1032690402 | 2024 | 290 pages | EPUB | 9 MB Cold War Museology is the first volume to bring together interdisciplinary and international contributions from leading practitioners and academics specialising in Cold War museology.

M. Vinogradov English | October 16, 2001 | ISBN: 082182922X | 247 pages | PDF | 27 Mb This book is dedicated to fundamentals of a new theory, which is an analog of affine algebraic geometry for (nonlinear) partial differential equations. This theory grew up from the classical geometry of PDE's originated by S. Lie and his followers by incorporating some nonclassical ideas from the theory of integrable systems, the formal theory of PDE's in its modern cohomological form given by D. Spencer and H. Goldschmidt and differential calculus over commutative algebras (Primary Calculus). The main result of this synthesis is Secondary Calculus on diffieties, new geometrical objects which are analogs of algebraic varieties in the context of (nonlinear) PDE's. Secondary Calculus surprisingly reveals a deep cohomological nature of the general theory of PDE's and indicates new directions of its further progress. Recent developments in quantum field theory showed Secondary Calculus to be its natural language, promising a nonperturbative formulation of the theory. In addition to PDE's themselves, the author describes existing and potential applications of Secondary Calculus ranging from algebraic geometry to field theory, classical and quantum, including areas such as characteristic classes, differential invariants, theory of geometric structures, variational calculus, control theory, etc. This book, focused mainly on theoretical aspects, forms a natural dipole with Symmetries and Conservation Laws for Differential Equations of Mathematical Physics, Volume 182 in this same series, Translations of Mathematical Monographs, and shows the theory ""in action"".  Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience and Neurobiology by Mirko Čorlukić English | 2026 | ISBN: 1041100272 | 241 Pages | True PDF | 2.16 MB  Cognitive Physique: A History of Structured Consequences English | 24 Jan. 2026 | ASIN: B0GJNDZPSV | 472 pages | Epub | 1.56 MB Cognitive Physique is a history of how cognition becomes measurable, engineerable, and scalable. It starts before laboratories-where systems first had to stay intact under pressure-and follows the path from body regulation, to counting, to standards, to control theory, to probabilistic inference, to learning, and finally to collective and reflexive systems. This book frames cognition as a physical problem: bounded behavior under disturbance, shaped by constraints, feedback, uncertainty, and cost. Inside: Stability under disturbance: drift, recovery, robustness Uncertainty made formal: probability, inference, estimation Learning that changes the learner: plasticity, regularization, skill Collective cognition: norms, tools, institutions, machine participants Reflexive systems: metrics, feedback on feedback, optimization traps For readers of: control theory, systems thinking, cognitive science, AI, and physics-grounded accounts of mind. |
