    An Algebra of Pieces of Space -- Hermann Grassmann to Gian Carlo Rota

    Full text link
    We sketch the outlines of Gian Carlo Rota's interaction with the ideas that Hermann Grassmann developed in his Ausdehnungslehre of 1844 and 1862, as adapted and explained by Giuseppe Peano in 1888. This leads us past what Rota variously called 'Grassmann-Cayley algebra', or 'Peano spaces', to the Whitney algebra of a matroid, and finally to a resolution of the question "What, really, was Grassmann's regressive product?". This final question is the subject of ongoing joint work with Andrea Brini, Francesco Regonati, and William Schmitt. The present paper was presented at the conference "The Digital Footprint of Gian-Carlo Rota: Marbles, Boxes and Philosophy" in Milano on 17 Feb 2009. It will appear in proceedings of that conference, to be published by Springer Verlag.Comment: 28 page

    Vultures togati: imagen simbólica de los malos abogados en los Emblemata (1618) de Florentius Schoonhovius

    Get PDF
    Producción CientíficaEl éxito del genus emblematicum, cuya fecha de nacimiento oficial se fija el 28 de febrero de 1531 según reza el colofón del Emblematum Liber de Andrea Alciato (Ausburgo, H. Steyner), animó a numerosos poetas de primera y de segunda fila a dejar su impronta también en este nuevo campo artístico-literario. Tal fue el caso del holandés Florentius Schoonhovius (Guda, 1594-1648), quien con poco más de veinte años decidió aplicar su estro poético a la composición de un libro de emblemas cuando estudiaba jurisprudencia en la Universidad de Leiden

    Real Estates

    Full text link
    From 18 February to 28 March 2015 Real Estates was a project coordinated by art collective Fugitive Images opening at PEER as a social, discursive and imaginative space around issues of housing and spatial justice in East London through a constantly changing series of exhibitions, screenings, discussions, readings and workshops. ‘This project arrives at the end of a seven-year series of collaborative works with our neighbours of the Haggerston Estate. Our work came from within the community, with whom we cultivated other spaces to gather, share and campaign before the estate was demolished. Our neighbourhoods and communities are facing even greater threats from new developments and policies that separate and stratify us. But there are also many that have resisted these forces. In these six-weeks we invite in other communities, speakers and artists related to the housing crisis in London. The project will act as a platform for campaign groups and engaged makers to bring their important work into a different space, to share with us a glimpse of their own long-term projects on key sites. The gallery will host works that connect us, that illuminate, that bring pain to the surface, that inspire tenderness, that reject terrifying social injustices and restore ethical imperatives. The events programme brings together discussions around eviction, displacement and homelessness and their expression through an art that is committed to being made public and shared. This is not for profit, there nothing for sale and all events will be free.’ Fugitive Images Fugitive Images are Andrea Luka Zimmerman and David Roberts, a collaborative cultural activist producing agency, with a particular interest in, and commitment to, the social organisation of urban space. The exhibition was an opportunity to extend this collaboration to other communities, campaigners and artists who have made it their life’s work to make visible the impacts of eviction, displacement and homelessness on everyday lives. These rooms hosted works and events that connect us, that illuminate, that bring pain to the surface, that inspire tenderness, that voice solidarity. Together we hope to develop a deeper understanding and find strategies to resist terrifying social injustices and restore ethical imperatives.

    Meiotic irregularities in Alstroemeria andina var. Venustula (Alstroemeriaceae)

    Get PDF
    Alstroemeria andina Phil. var. venustula (Phil.) M. Muñoz (sub nom. A. andina Phil. subsp. venustula (Phil.) Ehr. Bayer) is a perennial, small herb, 5-16 cm tall, that occurs mainly at 2,800-3,700 meters above sea level, in populations of limited distribution from Argentina and Chile. The course of the meiosis was analyzed in a population of this taxon (2n = 2x = 16), and it proved to be highly irregular. It was characterized by presenting bridge and fragment configurations both at anaphases I and II. The highest number of bridges at anaphase I found in one cell was two, suggesting heterozygosity for as many as two paracentric inversions. Typical chiasmata were almost not detectable, even though they actually existed. The chiasma-like structures observed may be regarded as concealed chiasmata as it has been described in cryptochiasmate meiosis. A high frequency of tetrads with micronuclei was observed, implying significant levels of unbalanced gametes. Pollen stainability ranged between 28 and 30%. In Alstroemeria species the meiotic behaviour is highly regular, and the presence of rearrangements is very uncommon. The whole situation led us to suggest that some environmental factors have drastically affected the chromosome structure and the control of the meiotic process. The present study constitutes the first report of remarkable meiotic irregularities found in a wild population of this genus.Fil: Sanso, Andrea Mariel.
