Constitutionalism in the Shadow of Doctrine: The President’s Non-Enforcement Power

Barron challenges the court-centered approach to the scope of the President\u27s non-enforcement power. He contends that a President, notwithstanding that he considers himself bound by the Supreme Court\u27s constitutional interpretations, should resolve three distinct questions in determining whether he may faithfully decline to enforce a statute by virtue of its unconstitutionality

Twisted modules for tensor product vertex operator superalgebras and permutation automorphisms of odd order

We construct and classify $(1 \; 2\; \cdots \; k)$-twisted $V^{\otimes k}$-modules for $k$ odd and for $V$ a vertex operator superalgebra. This extends previous results of the author, along with Dong and Mason, classifying all permutation-twisted modules for tensor product vertex operator algebras, to the setting of vertex operator superalgebras for odd order permutations. We show why this construction does not extend to the case of permutations of even order in the superalgebra case and how the construction and classification in the even order case is fundamentally different than that for the odd order permutation case. We present a conjecture made by the author and Nathan Vander Werf concerning the classification of permutation twisted modules for permutations of even order.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:math/980311

You Do Not Want to Go to the Island: A Rhetorical Panorama of The Island

The first glance at the tropical haven emerging from the luminous teal waters arouses an awe of such a paradise. The inhabitants of a facility in the Michael Bay film, The Island, daily abide in that awe, assured in their eminent continuance succeeding a lethal global contamination. Their perception, however, is limited. The inhabitants are components of a rhetorical vision and their view of the Island is less that panoramic. Through a rare analysis of film, the device of Fantasy Theme Analysis, devised by Ernest Bormann, interfaced with a notion of vampiring, an unobstructed cyclorama of the Island is made available, indeed, providentially for the inhabitants in the film as well as the real world American society

The Complexity Of The NP-Class

This paper presents a novel and straight formulation, and gives a complete insight towards the understanding of the complexity of the problems of the so called NP-Class. In particular, this paper focuses in the Searching of the Optimal Geometrical Structures and the Travelling Salesman Problems. The main results are the polynomial reduction procedure and the solution to the Noted Conjecture of the NP-Class
