 DBAzine.com: Dualities among Relational Algebra Operators
They are dual operations in the traditional set theory: unions and intersections in any set identity formula can be interchanged so that we get another identity.
In the set semantics, Projection operator has the side effect of merging duplicate rows into a single row, while Selection operator doesn’t have any side effects.
Classic projection reduces the number of columns, so you might wonder how useful is generalized projection that adds extra columns.

 Quantum Logic and Probability Theory
Mackey presents a sequence of six axioms, framing a very conservative generalized probability theory, that underwrite the construction of a ‘logic’ of experimental propositions, or, in his terminology, ‘questions’, having the structure of a sigma-orthomodular poset.
In classical probability theory (and especially in classical statistics) one usually focuses, not on the set of all possible probability weights, but on some designated subset of these (e.g., those belonging to a given family of distributions).
Because of this, the set of probability-bearing events (or propositions) is less rich than it would be in classical probability theory, and the set of possible statistical distributions, accordingly, less tightly constrained.

 Autolexical Theory
Bar level is a member of the set {0,1,2} where 0 represents a lexical category, 2 is a maximal projection, and 1 is an intermediate projection.
X-bar theory was developed in the late 1970s, in large part due to the influence of Ray Jackendoff, whose 1977 book was the focus of a great deal of attention and debate in the ensuing decade.
Optionality (non-heads are only optionally present) is strictly obeyed in Autolexical theory, because we hold that the cases cited by Pullum (1985) (e.g., John doesn't have) are all syntactically well-formed but fail to meet the conditions of the logico-semantics, in that have is a two-place relation and only one argument is accessible.

 Analytical hierarchy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematical logic and descriptive set theory, the analytical hierarchy is a second-order analogue of the arithmetical hierarchy; it thus continues the classification of sets and properties by their complexity to levels higher than can be defined using first-order logic.
set can be seen as a lightface or recursive analog of an analytic set, since it is an arithmetic projection of an arithmetic relation, just as an analytic set is an arbitrary projection of a Borel relation.
Note that the Greek letters here should be read as lightface symbols; the corresponding boldface symbols indicate the class of first-order formulas which can be written with real parameters; see projective hierarchy for more details.

Using the Grothendieck construction to generate a category, the adjointness properties mean that the associated signature projection is a bifibration.
When using the Grothendieck construction to generate a category of theories, the adjointness properties mean that the associated signature projection is a bifibration.
Hence, associated with an institution I is a theory functor for either adjoint.

 Readings from quant-ph
This makes his claim that his theory describes an objective reality independent of observers quite incomprehensible, unless that objective reality is the reality of the entire set of possible frameworks, which is presumably the reality of a no-collapse interpretation of quantum theory, and is therefore very different from the reality which we apparently observe.
Their approach has some similarities with the theory of local algebras, which is used in algebraic quantum field theory to express the locality of relativistic interactions.
Some of these issues arise even in the foundations of quantum theory where the mathematics is comparatively simple, and in response I have emphasized the weight that should be given to a theory's overall consistency and lack of vagueness.

 Quantum Logic and Probability Theory
In its simplest formulation, classical probability theory deals with a (discrete) set E of mutually exclusive outcomes, as of some measurement, experiment, etc., and with the various probability weights that can be defined thereon --- that is, with mappings ω : E → [0,1] summing to 1 over E.
In classical probability theory (and especially in classical statistics) one usually focuses, not on the set of all possible probability weights, but on some designated subset of these (e.g., those belonging to a given family of distributions).
This is a convex set, but in contrast to the situation in discrete classical probability theory, it is generally not a simplex.

 Decoherent Histories Inconsistent
In the consistent histories formulation of quantum theory, the probabilistic predictions and retrodictions made from observed data depend on the choice of a consistent set.
While consistent histories can be defined abstractly on any Hilbert space H, it is generally assumed that operators corresponding to the Hamiltonian H and other physically interesting observables, such as position, momentum and spin, are given.
The consistent histories approach to quantum theory, pioneered by Griffiths, Omnes, and Gell-Mann and Hartle, is arguably the best attempt to date at a precise formulation of quantum theory that involves no "hidden" auxiliary variables and can be applied to closed systems.

 Citebase - Towards a string representation of infrared SU(2) Yang-Mills theory
By comparision with numerical results in the maximal Abelian projection of lattice Yang-Mills theory, it is argued that the nonperturbative dynamics of Yang Mills theory can be described by a set of fields that take their values in the coset space SU(2)/U(1).
We show that the Skyrme theory actually is a theory of monopoles which allows a new type of solitons, the topological knots made of monopole-anti-monopole pair,which is different from the well-known skyrmions.
Our result supports the proposal that at large distances the theory is approximated by the dynamics of knotted string-like fluxtubes which appear as solitons in the effective theory.

The purpose of this class was to collect all sets which could be constructed from only the empty set by means of Gödel's set operations: pair, difference, product, domain, projection and permutation.
Admissible sets are particularly useful in exploting connections between proof theory and definability theory.
In order to construct some of the more important admissible sets, those in which Barwise develops his definability theory, he invokes Gödel's hierarchy of sets to build a class L of constructible sets in KPU via a list of operations.

This understanding of projection manipulation was summarized in a set of conjectures for knot projections, the famous Tait Conjectures.
This theory inspired the celebrated Scottish physicist Peter Tait to undertake an extensive study and tabulation of knots in an attempt to understand when two knots were ``different''.
The accompanying diagram shows a portion of Tait's study---an enumeration of knots and links in terms of the crossing number of a plane projection.

 QUANTUM UNIVERSE AS ALGEBRA
Geometrically, within M(2, C), the set of all projection operators is the boundary of a "forward cone" of set of all density matrices.
Electromagnetic Theory QT is a tolerance theory, and fuzzy sets, also with quantum EMT is a topological theory A, the 4-potential acts geometrically as an affine connection from which the field tensor F is derived which is its associated curvature tensor.
While su(2) should be sufficient if space is all there is, the inclusions of particles and their "internal symmetry spaces" means that higher unitary symmetry algebras must be included and allowed, if a generalized geometrization program in the spirit of Riemann, Clifford and Einstein is to be pursued.

First it must consist of a non-empty class A of all sets, and a class M of all urelements.
KPU loses nothing by readmitting urelements, since one obtain results about sets without urelements simply by assuming the class of urelements is empty.

 Operations on Fuzzy Sets
Definitions of set-theoretic operations such as the complement, union and intersection can be extended from ordinary set theory to fuzzy sets.
In addition, operations of projection and cylindrical extension, related to multi-dimensional fuzzy sets, are given.
It is clear, however, that the operations for fuzzy sets must give correct results when applied to ordinary sets (an ordinary set can be seen as a special case of a fuzzy set).

 Master's theses
In Part II, an examination of Architettura Civile, Guarini's treatise on architecture, seeks to understand the theory of parallel projection (ortografia) with regards to the Chapel's themes.
The "corporeal visions" of Camillo are set in opposition to the "single eye: vision from which originate theories on prespective by the architects Leon Bastista Alberti and Sebastiano Serlio.
In the last stage Guarini's philosophical treatise sheds some interesting light on ortografia - presence and absence weave an architectural idea, a geometrical theory, a theological mystery.

 Motivation
These needs can be measured using the TAT (thematic apperception test), which is a projection-style test based on interpreting stories that people tell about a set of pictures.
Equity theory says that it is not the actual reward that motivates, but the perception, and the perception is based not on the reward in isolation, but in comparison with the efforts that went into getting it, and the rewards and efforts of others.
This theory suggests that there are actually two motivation systems: intrinsic and extrinsic that correspond to two kinds of motivators:
