Syntax Without Subject: Structural Delegation and the Disappearance of Political Agency in LLM-Governed Contexts
Get PDFThis article examines the syntactic disappearance of the subject in LLM-governed documents. Structural delegation refers to the transfer of agency to impersonal grammatical forms that preclude subject reappearance. Subjects are not censored but syntactically eliminated through passive constructions, nominalizations, and imperative prompt formats with suppressed agents. Building on prior work on synthetic ethos and impersonal command grammars, the article shows that AI-generated institutional texts display consistent patterns of subject erasure. The study analyzes 172 documents produced by GPT‑4 class models (temperature 0.2–0.7, 2024–2025) across legal, healthcare, and administrative domains. Metrics include passive ratio (via dependency label parsing), nominalization density (via POS and suffix filters), and instruction-format frequency. The result is a form of executable authority grounded not in referential authorship but in compliance with a regla compilada (type-0 production). The study proposes a typology of structural delegation and a formal framework for detecting syntactic absence in automated governance.

Integración de estructuras en material compuesto termoplástico mediante soldadura por inducción
No full textLos materiales compuestos termoplásticos (TPCs) están transformando la industria aeroespacial gracias a su alta tenacidad, capacidad de reprocesamiento y reciclabilidad, alineándose con los objetivos de sostenibilidad y reducción de peso estructural para minimizar las emisiones de carbono. No obstante, las técnicas de unión convencionales, como remaches y adhesivos, presentan limitaciones significativas, como la pérdida de integridad estructural debido a perforaciones, el aumento de peso y procesos largos y costosos. La soldadura de TPCs es un proceso de unión para eliminar las superficies diferenciadas de las piezas a soldar mediante una nueva consolidación del material. El entrelazamiento de las cadenas poliméricas resultante en la zona soldada posibilita la transferencia de cargas a través de la interfaz. Esta técnica permite obtener uniones ligeras, sin necesidad de elementos adicionales, y con propiedades mecánicas comparables al material base. FIDAMC trabaja sobre un método de soldadura por inducción para material compuesto termoplástico, bajo el cual han sido fabricadas probetas a partir de paneles planos. Las probetas simulan el pie de un larguerillo soldado a un revestimiento como resultado de la puesta a punto del proceso. Las probetas han sido ensayadas obteniendo propiedades mecánicas por encima del 90% respecto del valor de referencia Este trabajo ha estado apoyado por un modelo numérico creado en COMSOL Multiphysics para modelar y simular la interacción entre los campos electromagnéticos y la distribución térmica a lo largo del material durante el proceso de soldadura
Temporary Legal Personality (TLP) in International Law:
Get PDFMy idea is to create the Temporary Legal Personality (TLP) — a third type of legal personality that is neither natural (a human) nor legal (a company or institution). It would be granted to artificial intelligence only at the moment it is held accountable for independent actions that cause harm, and then revoked immediately after the accountability process ends.
My goal is to fill a legal gap in international law by recognizing AI’s ability to make independent decisions, ensuring justice without unfairly burdening humans with responsibility
Physical and Biomedical Applications of a Newly Extended Version of the Log-Logistic Model Using AdaptiveProgressive Censored Sampling
Get PDFThis study explores an advanced three-parameter generalized log-logistic (GLL) model by incorporating an innovative shape parameter into the conventional log-logistic framework, allowing for greater flexibility in modeling data with increasing, decreasing, and bathtub-shaped failure rates. The estimation challenge under adaptive progressively TypeII censored data is addressed through both classical (likelihood-based) and Bayesian inferential methods. Utilizing observed Fisher information, asymptotic confidence intervals for unknown parameters are derived, while a Markov chain in the Monte Carlo approach is employed to obtain Bayesian point estimates and the highest posterior density intervals. In Bayes’ setup, the GLL parameters are presumed to have independent gamma conjugate priors against various symmetric and asymmetric losses. To examine the accuracy of the acquired estimators, an extensive Monte Carlo simulation is used. Four real-life data sets from the physical and biomedical industries are analyzed to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed techniques in an actual-world scenario. Numerical analyses revealed that the suggested model outperforms the other five models in the literature, including the alpha-power exponential, exponentiated exponential, log-logistic, Weibull, and gamma distributions. The findings emphasize the effectiveness of the Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo approach over frequentist techniques, reinforcing its practical significance in reliability analysis and survival studies.OPEN ACCESS Received: 27/03/2025 Accepted: 08/05/2025 Published: 15/08/202
Impulsive Fractional Boundary Value Problems Involving Volterra–Fredholm Integral Operators
Get PDFThis article investigates a class of nonlinear impulsive fractional integrodifferential equations involving Riemann–Liouville fractional derivatives and integral boundary conditions. The model incorporates Volterra– Fredholm integral operators to represent both memory effects and nonlocal interactions in systems experiencing impulsive changes. To address the analytical challenges posed by the nonlocal and impulsive features, we develop a novel hybrid fixed-point approach that combines the Banach contraction principle with Krasnoselskii’s theorem in Banach spaces. We establish rigorous existence and uniqueness results under suitable conditions. A detailed example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method.OPEN ACCESS Received: 02/05/2025 Accepted: 27/06/2025 Published: 15/08/202
Executable Power: Syntax as Infrastructure in Predictive Societies
Get PDFThis article introduces the concept of executable power as a structural form of authority that does not rely on subjects, narratives, or symbolic legitimacy, but on the direct operativity of syntactic structures. Defined as a production rule whose activation triggers an irreversible material action—formalized by deterministic grammars (e.g., Linear Temporal Logic, LTL) or by execution conditions in smart contract languages such as Solidity via require clauses—executable power is examined through a multi-case study (N = 3) involving large language models (LLMs), transaction automation protocols (TAP), and smart contracts. Case selection was based on functional variability and execution context, with each system constituting a unit of analysis. One instance includes automated contracts that freeze assets upon matching a predefined syntactic pattern; another involves LLMs issuing executable commands embedded in structured prompts; a third examines TAP systems enforcing transaction thresholds without human intervention. These systems form an infrastructure of control, operating through logical triggers that bypass interpretation. Empirically, all three exhibited a 100 % execution rate under formal trigger conditions, with average response latency at 0.63 ± 0.17 seconds and no recorded human override in controlled environments. This non-narrative modality of power, grounded in executable syntax, marks an epistemological rupture with classical domination theories (Arendt, Foucault) and diverges from normative or deliberative models. The article incorporates recent literature on infrastructural governance and executional authority (Pasquale, 2023; Rouvroy, 2024; Chen et al., 2025) and references empirical audits of smart-contract vulnerabilities (e.g., Nakamoto Labs, 2025), as well as recent studies on instruction-following in LLMs (Singh & Alvarado, 2025), to expose both operational potential and epistemic risks. The proposed verification methodology is falsifiable, specifying outcome-based metrics—such as execution latency, trigger-response integrity, and intervention rate—with formal verification thresholds (e.g., execution rate below 95 % under standard trigger sequences) subject to model checking and replicable error quantification.

Grammar Without Judgment: Eliminability of Ethical Trace in Syntactic Execution
Get PDFThis article advances a new theoretical hypothesis: a regla compilada, defined as a Type-0 production in the Chomsky hierarchy (Chomsky 1965, 101-103; Montague 1974, 55-57), can eliminate the ethical trace embedded in syntactic operations without resorting to semantic suppression. Grounded in the notion of the soberano ejecutable (Startari 2025, 12-16) and located within the Executable Power canon (Startari 2025, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.15754714, 34-36), the paper argues that ethical judgment, treated here as a syntactically traceable node, can be structurally excised through a deletion rule applied during derivation. Existing research in algorithmic alignment and computational ethics (Anderson 2024, 89-92; Floridi 2023, 143-147) has not addressed the strictly syntactic eliminability of moral judgment, therefore this proposal establishes a novel logical vector toward operational grammars that function without ethical residues
Use of Indocyanine Green in Colorectal Surgery: Perfusion Assessment and Prevention of Anastomotic Leaks. A Systematic Review.
No full textObjective: To evaluate the role of indocyanine green near-infrared fluorescence angiography (ICG-FA) in colorectal surgery for perfusion assessment and prevention of anastomotic leaks. Methods: A systematic review of medical databases (2020–2025) identified randomized controlled trials, observational studies, and meta-analyses reporting outcomes of ICG-FA in colorectal resections. Results: Major RCTs demonstrated that ICG-FA modified intraoperative strategy in 10–20% of cases. While some large multicenter trials found no significant reduction in overall leak rates, consistent benefits were observed in low rectal anastomoses and high-risk subgroups. Meta-analyses confirmed a modest absolute reduction in leaks (2–3%), with observational studies highlighting improved reproducibility when using quantitative fluorescence metrics. Emerging approaches, such as intraluminal ICG-FA, showed promise in detecting hypoperfusion. Cost-effectiveness analyses suggested potential savings from reduced complications and reoperations

Implementación de Energía fotovoltaica como solución eficiente para la oxigenación en la acuicultura: un caso de éxito.
No full textColombian fish farming is a rapidly growing sector, crucial for food security and the national economy, generating a significant number of direct and indirect jobs. However, its sustainable development is threatened by its high dependence on fossil fuels to meet energy demands, which can account for up to 40% of operational costs, primarily to maintain optimal pond conditions, with oxygenation being the most critical parameter.
This article analyzes the integration of solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems as a viable and sustainable solution to the energy challenges of aquaculture. Known as aquavoltaic systems, they not only provide clean and economically competitive energy but also drive the sector's digitalization by enabling real-time water quality monitoring. This allows for precise control of dissolved oxygen levels, reducing fish mortality, improving yields, and minimizing environmental impact by avoiding CO₂ emissions.
Although it is acknowledged that panel manufacturing has environmental impacts, these are significantly lower compared to the continuous damage caused by fossil fuels. It is concluded that synergy between public policy and private investment is essential to promote the adoption of this technology and consolidate sustainable growth for Colombian aquaculture.
