Abstract:
What philosophy governs the European common market today? This chapter examines this question by exploring the doctrinal structure of Article 34 since Cassis de Dijon. It will be argued that after Cassis, the substantive structure of the European market could no longer be presented as a ‘new legal order of international law’. For the principle of mutual recognition ‘breaks’ the backbone of the international model, as each State loses a part of its (internal) sovereignty over its own (internal) market. This loss of sovereignty was first established for national rules relating to product require

This chapter proves maximum principles for two parabolic and elliptic equations from which the uniqueness results follow easily.

Of particular note in this regard is a generalization of the Hopf boundary point maximum principle.

This chapter discusses the harmonic oscillator, which is a model ubiquitous to all branches of physics. The harmonic oscillator is a system with well-known solutions and has been fully investigated since it was first developed by Robert Hooke in the seventeenth century. These factors ensure that the harmonic oscillator is as relevant to a swinging pendulum as it is to a quantum field. Due to the importance of this model, the chapter investigates its dynamical properties, including the superposition principle in solutions, and construct a probability density function in a single dimension.

Abstract:
The derivation of the rotating shallow-water model by vertical averaging is carried on in the tangent plane approximation without neglecting the vertical component of the Coriolis force, and contributions of the vertical component of velocity in its horizontal component (‘non-traditional’ terms), leading to one- and two-layer ‘non-traditional’ rotating shallow-water models. A similar approach on the whole sphere encounters difficulties with conservation of angular momentum. Consistent ‘non-traditional’ rotating shallow-water equations in this case are obtained from the variational principle, w

This chapter confronts the neo-Darwinian core tenet of blind variation, or random mutation, with classical and recent models of genetic assimilation. We first argue that all the mechanisms proposed so far rely on blind genetic variation fueling natural selection. Then, we examine a new hypothetical mechanism of genetic assimilation, relying on nonblind genetic variation. Yet, we show that such a model still relies on blind variation of some sort to explain adaptation. Last, we discuss the very meaning of the tenet of blind variation. We propose a formal characterization of the tenet and argue

Early in the sixteenth century, Italy came to represent the cultural vanguard in Europe both in terms of new ideas and in offering a literary model of the vernacular.

The academy itself is a model for the principle of ‘vulgarization’ set out in the preface to Hoby's Courtier.

Perfect being theology is the attempt to derive the attributes of God from the principle that God is the greatest possible being. This chapter explains what would have to be done for such a derivation to succeed. Basically, one needs a modal claim about God, and a condition on properties such that it follows from the modal claim and the fact that some property satisfies the condition that the property is a property of God. The first is called a modal principle, and the second a greatness condition.

Acceptance and empathy are essential to developing a healing partnership with one’s patients.

Under Louis XVI existing fissures would break open, and increasingly independent-minded ministers, sceptical about the intellectual foundations of absolute monarchy and inspired by ideas from across the channel, developed a habit of resigning on princi

This book presents a theory of temporal structure for music, making two main arguments.

As a result, we can develop tools to talk about the experience of musical time in abstraction from any particular modality, and make analogies from structural phenomena in one modality to another (e.g., formal counterpoint).

This work explores the relationship between Bentham's utilitarian practical philosophy and his positivist jurisprudence.

Two themes emerge from the attempt in this work to reconcile these two core elements of Bentham's practical thought. First, Bentham's conception of law does not fit the conventional model of legal positivism. Bentham was not just a utilitarian
