Lattice theory provides a robust framework for analysing ordered structures across various fields of mathematics. In its most general form, a lattice comprises a set equipped with two binary ...

This paper explores and explains the application of the lattice theoretic approach to classic comparative statics in consumer theory. Through examples of preferences that are not quasiconcave, or not ...

In the Debye theory of the specific heat of solids the value of θ calculated from elastic constants, namely, θ D (elastic), should be the same as that found from specific-heat data, θ D (specific heat ...

Quantum computing is widely believed to be a revolutionary new technology. In fact, it is a double-edged sword. If efficient quantum computers can be manufactured in near future, many of the current ...

Optical lattice clocks are devices that measure the passing of time via the frequency of light that is absorbed or emitted by ...

Scientists say they have found a more accurate way to measure time. We currently use atomic clocks to count the seconds, but tests on an alternative atomic timekeeper have revealed that it is more ...
