We separate the Collection Principle, the Reflection Principle, and the Partial Reflection Principle in ZF with urelements (ZFU), despite their equivalence under the Axiom of Choice. In particular, Collection and the Partial Reflection…

In the framework of certain general probability theories of single systems, we identify various nonclassical features such as incompatibility, multiple pure-state decomposability, measurement disturbance, no-cloning and the impossibility of…

In this paper we will study an important but rather technical result which is called The Reduction Property. The result tells us how much arithmetical conservation there is between two arithmetical theories. Both theories essentially speak…

This work is devoted to molecular dynamics modeling of collision of nanoparticle having a small number of degrees of freedom with a structureless plain. The new regularities are established that determine properties of such particles.…

Interpretation of unitarity saturation as reflective scattering is discussed. Analogies with optics and Berry phase alongside with the experimental consequences of the proposed interpretation at the LHC energies are considered.

Two statements by von Neumann and a thought-experiment by Peres prompts a discussion on the notions of one-shot distinguishability, orthogonality, semi-permeable diaphragm, and their thermodynamic implications. In the first part of the…

In mathematical logic there are two seemingly distinct kinds of principles called "reflection principles." Semantic reflection principles assert that if a formula holds in the whole universe, then it holds in a set-sized model. Syntactic…

We consider reflection and transmission of interfaces which implement renormalisation group flows between conformal fixed points in two dimensions. Such an RG interface is constructed from the identity defect in the ultraviolet CFT by…

We developed a formula for the law of reflection of a plane-polarized light beam from an inclined flat mirror in uniform rectilinear motion by a direct application of the Huygens-Fresnel principle. Applying the obtained formula and the…

Entanglement characteristics of a pair coherent state is studied using entanglement of superposition. It is demonstrated only few states in the expansion of a pair coherent state, in a harmonic oscillator basis, contribute significantly to…

The Douglas-Rachford reflection method is a general purpose algorithm useful for solving the feasibility problem of finding a point in the intersection of finitely many sets. In this chapter we demonstrate that applied to a specific…

In this paper we continue the study in [Gilton-Levine-Stejskalova] of compactness and incompactness principles at double successors, focusing here on the case of double successors of singulars of countable cofinality. We obtain models which…

We show that given a reflecting cardinal, one can produce a model of $\mathsf{BPFA}$ where the $\Sigma^1_n$-uniformization property holds simultaneously for all $n \ge 2$.

We force over the constructible universe to obtain a model of the $\Pi^1_3$-reduction property, thus lowering the best known large cardinal strength from the existence of $M_1^{\#}$ to just ZFC. In this model the $\Pi^1_3$-uniformization…

The Axiom of Plenitude asserts that every ordinal is equinumerous with a set of urelements, while its stronger form, Plenitude$^+$, extends it to all sets. We investigate these two axioms within ZF set theory with urelements. Assuming that…
