Precise set sharing and nullity analysis for java-style program

Finding useful sharing information between instances in object- oriented programs has been recently the focus of much research. The applications of such static analysis are multiple: by knowing which variables share in memory we can apply conventional compiler optimizations, find coarse-grained parallelism opportunities, or, more importantly,erify certain correctness aspects of programs even in the absence of annotations In this paper we introduce a framework for deriving precise sharing information based on abstract interpretation for a Java-like language. Our analysis achieves precision in various ways. The analysis is multivariant, which allows separating different contexts. We propose a combined Set Sharing + Nullity + Classes domain which captures which instances share and which ones do not or are definitively null, and which uses the classes to refine the static information when inheritance is present. Carrying the domains in a combined way facilitates the interaction among the domains in the presence of mutivariance in the analysis. We show that both the set sharing part of the domain as well as the combined domain provide more accurate information than previous work based on pair sharing domains, at reasonable cost.

Rank and k-nullity of contact manifolds

We prove that the dimension of the 1-nullity distribution N(1) on a closed Sasakian manifold M of rankl is at least equal to 2l−1 provided that M has an isolated closed characteristic. The result is then used to provide some examples of k-contact manifolds which are not Sasakian. On a closed, 2n+1-dimensional Sasakian manifold of positive bisectional curvature, we show that either the dimension of N(1) is less than or equal to n+1 or N(1) is the entire tangent bundle TM. In the latter case, the Sasakian manifold Mis isometric to a quotient of the Euclidean sphere under a finite group of isometries. We also point out some interactions between k-nullity, Weinstein conjecture, and minimal unit vector fields.

A prestação de contas e o regime especial da invalidade das deliberações

The obligation of accountability, or the need to make known the economic and financial state of the companies, ceased to be a purely internal activity, becoming a necessity of a general nature. The knowledge of the financial state of the companies, wich is provided by accountability documents, reveals more and more elementary for all interested in the results obtained, whether in terms of profitability, either with a view to assessing the economic and financial health of the companies. This essay aims to a deeper analysis to matters of accountability, in particular, to the special invalidity scheme of corporate resolutions, wich is enshrined in art. 69º of Portuguese Companies Code. We chose to reference the accrual basis accounts approval, through the analysis of financial statements, laying down a set of principles and criteria applicable to different entities. After consideration of the special scheme versed in art. 69º, we conclude there is a certain ambiguity in the adoption of the criteria do delimit each of the hypotheses of the precept, since the legislator uses indeterminate concepts. Nevertheless, if there is a rule, this will be the annulment, and only exceptionally will apply the nullity scheme, where there is injury to the public interest and the interests of the creditors.

Integral formulae for a Riemannian manifold with a distribution

We obtain a new series of integral formulae for symmetric functions of curvature of a distribution of arbitrary codimension (an its orthogonal complement) given on a compact Riemannian manifold, which start from known formula by P.Walczak (1990) and generalize ones for foliations by several authors: Asimov (1978), Brito, Langevin and Rosenberg (1981), Brito and Naveira (2000), Andrzejewski and Walczak (2010), etc. Our integral formulae involve the co-nullity tensor, certain component of the curvature tensor and their products. The formulae also deal with a number of arbitrary functions depending on the scalar invariants of the co-nullity tensor. For foliated manifolds of constant curvature the obtained formulae give us the classical type formulae. For a special choice of functions our formulae reduce to ones with Newton transformations of the co-nullity tensor.

Välimiehen vahingonkorvausvastuu

Tutkielman tavoitteena on selvittää välimiehen vahingonkorvausoikeudellista asemaa suhteessa välimiesmenettelyn asianosaisiin ja välimiehen korvausvastuuta eri tilanteissa välimiesmenettelystä annetun lain mukaisessa sopimusperusteisessa välimiesmenettelyssä. Tutkielma on menetelmältään lainopillinen ja tutkielman aineisto koostuu pääosin oikeuskirjallisuudesta. Välimiehen ja asianosaisten välinen oikeussuhde voidaan katsoa rinnastuvan sopimussuhteeseen, mikä mahdollistaa sopimusperusteisen vahingonkorvausvastuun normien soveltamisen. Välimiehen korvausvastuu vaikuttaa mahdolliselta – vaikkakin käytännössä harvinaiselta – menettelyn viivästymisen, välimiehen aiheettoman tehtävästä luopumisen sekä välitystuomion mitättömyyden ja kumoamisen perusteella. Vastuu vaikuttaa syntyvän helpommin sellaisissa välimiehen velvoitteen rikkomistilanteissa, joissa välimiehen menettely ei edellytä oikeudellista harkintaa. Korvausvastuun arviointiin vaikuttavat useiden perusteiden osalta tilannekohtaiset tekijät ja välimiehen velvoitteen tulkinnanvaraisuus voi sulkea pois korvausvastuun. Välimiehen vastuun syntyminen salassapitovelvollisuuden rikkomisen perusteella on monilta osin epäselvä johtuen välimiehen salassapitovelvollisuuden heikosta normipohjasta. Vastuu välitystuomion aineellisoikeudellisen virheellisyyden perusteella vaikuttaa hyvin epätodennäköiseltä.

L'intérêt d'assurance comme élément constitutif de la déclaration initiale de risque en assurance de dommages

Peut-on donner d’une clause et reprendre de l’autre? Essai sur la cause comme instrument de contrôle de la cohérence matérielle du contrat

Peut-on donner d’une clause et reprendre de l’autre? Si deux siècles de décisions et de commentaires contradictoires empêchent de répondre à cette question avec la certitude et l’assurance auxquelles nous a habitué la doctrine civiliste, il est tout de même possible d’affirmer que le droit civil prohibe la clause qui permet à un contractant de se dédire totalement de son engagement. Privant l’engagement de son cocontractant de toute raison, et le contrat dans lequel elle se trouve de toute fonction, cette clause contracticide se heurte en effet à une notion fondamentale du droit commun des contrats : la cause. C’est pour éviter que ne soient validés les contrats qui ne présentent aucun intérêt pour l’une ou l’autre des parties que le législateur québécois a choisi d’importer – et de conserver, dans son article introductif du Livre des obligations, cette notion que l’on dit la plus symbolique du droit français des obligations. En effet, bien que son rôle soit fréquemment assumé par d’autres mécanismes, la cause demeure la gardienne des fonctions du contrat synallagmatique. À ce titre, elle permet non seulement d’annuler les contrats qui ne codifient aucun échange, mais également, et surtout, de contrôler ceux dont le contenu ne permet pas de matérialiser les avantages négociés. Octroyant au juge le pouvoir d’assurer que le contrat contienne les outils nécessaires et adaptés à la réalisation de l’opération qu’il a pour fonction de mettre en œuvre, la cause lui offre donc le moyen de garantir l’adéquation entre la fin et ses moyens, bref de contrôler la cohérence matérielle du contrat.

Sobreprecios en la contratación estatal

Los Estados modernos requieren establecer reglas de juegos claras y transparentes, que permitan que la adquisición de bienes y servicios cumplan su función social, enmarcada en criterios de racionalidad económica y de equidad. Dichas reglas implican una concientización ética en torno a lo público, que exige eliminar la idea de que el estado es un terreno apropiado para la captura de exageradas rentas y utilidades privadas. Es por ello que se requiere con urgencia establecer en nuestras leyes herramientas cuyo propósito sea impedir que los recursos del estado se pierdan en los sobreprecios. En consecuencia, es necesario enfrentar el tema del sobreprecio no solo desde el punto de vista de las responsabilidades imputables a los servidores públicos y contratistas involucrados en la ocurrencia de este fenómeno, sino también, desde la validez y eficacia del contrato celebrado y/o adjudicado y/o ejecutado con sobreprecios y además, buscando dentro de nuestra legislación mecanismos que ayuden a resarcir los perjuicios ocasionados por ésta situación

Perspex machine VII: The universal perspex machine

The perspex machine arose from the unification of projective geometry with the Turing machine. It uses a total arithmetic, called transreal arithmetic, that contains real arithmetic and allows division by zero. Transreal arithmetic is redefined here. The new arithmetic has both a positive and a negative infinity which lie at the extremes of the number line, and a number nullity that lies off the number line. We prove that nullity, 0/0, is a number. Hence a number may have one of four signs: negative, zero, positive, or nullity. It is, therefore, impossible to encode the sign of a number in one bit, as floating-, point arithmetic attempts to do, resulting in the difficulty of having both positive and negative zeros and NaNs. Transrational arithmetic is consistent with Cantor arithmetic. In an extension to real arithmetic, the product of zero, an infinity, or nullity with its reciprocal is nullity, not unity. This avoids the usual contradictions that follow from allowing division by zero. Transreal arithmetic has a fixed algebraic structure and does not admit options as IEEE, floating-point arithmetic does. Most significantly, nullity has a simple semantics that is related to zero. Zero means "no value" and nullity means "no information." We argue that nullity is as useful to a manufactured computer as zero is to a human computer. The perspex machine is intended to offer one solution to the mind-body problem by showing how the computable aspects of mind and. perhaps, the whole of mind relates to the geometrical aspects of body and, perhaps, the whole of body. We review some of Turing's writings and show that he held the view that his machine has spatial properties. In particular, that it has the property of being a 7D lattice of compact spaces. Thus, we read Turing as believing that his machine relates computation to geometrical bodies. We simplify the perspex machine by substituting an augmented Euclidean geometry for projective geometry. This leads to a general-linear perspex-machine which is very much easier to pro-ram than the original perspex-machine. We then show how to map the whole of perspex space into a unit cube. This allows us to construct a fractal of perspex machines with the cardinality of a real-numbered line or space. This fractal is the universal perspex machine. It can solve, in unit time, the halting problem for itself and for all perspex machines instantiated in real-numbered space, including all Turing machines. We cite an experiment that has been proposed to test the physical reality of the perspex machine's model of time, but we make no claim that the physical universe works this way or that it has the cardinality of the perspex machine. We leave it that the perspex machine provides an upper bound on the computational properties of physical things, including manufactured computers and biological organisms, that have a cardinality no greater than the real-number line.

Perspex machine IX: transreal analysis

We introduce transreal analysis as a generalisation of real analysis. We find that the generalisation of the real exponential and logarithmic functions is well defined for all transreal numbers. Hence, we derive well defined values of all transreal powers of all non-negative transreal numbers. In particular, we find a well defined value for zero to the power of zero. We also note that the computation of products via the transreal logarithm is identical to the transreal product, as expected. We then generalise all of the common, real, trigonometric functions to transreal functions and show that transreal (sin x)/x is well defined everywhere. This raises the possibility that transreal analysis is total, in other words, that every function and every limit is everywhere well defined. If so, transreal analysis should be an adequate mathematical basis for analysing the perspex machine - a theoretical, super-Turing machine that operates on a total geometry. We go on to dispel all of the standard counter "proofs" that purport to show that division by zero is impossible. This is done simply by carrying the proof through in transreal arithmetic or transreal analysis. We find that either the supposed counter proof has no content or else that it supports the contention that division by zero is possible. The supposed counter proofs rely on extending the standard systems in arbitrary and inconsistent ways and then showing, tautologously, that the chosen extensions are not consistent. This shows only that the chosen extensions are inconsistent and does not bear on the question of whether division by zero is logically possible. By contrast, transreal arithmetic is total and consistent so it defeats any possible "straw man" argument. Finally, we show how to arrange that a function has finite or else unmeasurable (nullity) values, but no infinite values. This arithmetical arrangement might prove useful in mathematical physics because it outlaws naked singularities in all equations.
