En el último tercio del siglo XIX, numerosos científicos realizaron una reflexión sobre las consecuencias de su propio trabajo. Al situarse en el territorio limítrofe entre la ciencia y la filosofía, se transformaron en lo que se conoce como científicos-filósofos. El objeto de la presente obra es precisamente el estudio de una de esas filosofías científicas, en concreto, la de Henri Poincaré, comúnmente conocida como ’convencionalismo’. Esta parece resultar siempre problemática, pues aunque la mayoría de los intérpretes están de acuerdo en afirmar que Poincaré fue el primero en mostrar una posición convencionalista de un modo articulado, hay grandes divergencias a la hora de determinar con precisión en qué consiste dicha posición. La controversia suscitada justifica la necesidad de un estudio que determine de forma pormenorizada la teoría del conocimiento de Poincaré para las cuestiones atinentes a la ciencia natural.

  • BEYOND THE TRIANGLE
    Kei Kobayashi / Marjorie Hahn / MARJORIE HAHN & KEI KOBAYA SABIR UMAROV / Sabir Umarov / UMAROV SABIR
     The book is devoted to the fundamental relationship between three objects: a stochastic process, stochastic differential equations driven by that process and their associated Fokker–Planck–Kolmogorov equations. This book discusses wide fractional generalizations of this fundamental triple relationship, where the driving process represents a time-changed stochastic process; the...
