Sigmund A. Cohn / Suzanne Lewy Cohn Collection 1837-1997
No full textThe collection consists predominantly of correspondence between Sigmund A. Cohn and his parents, his letters to various public and private agencies in an unsuccesful attempt to get his parents out of Germany as well as correspondence related to obtain restitution. Included in the collection are genealogical papers, autobiographies of various family members, and documents related to Sigmund A. Cohn's studies and work.Sigmund Albert Cohn (June 6, 1898 - March 14, 1997), Professor of Law at the University of Georgia, was born in Breslau, Germany. He studied law and economics at the University of Breslau, where he was awarded the law degree 'magna cum laude' in 1921. After serving his legal apprenticeship he joined the Department of Justice in Berlin and was appointed as a lifetime judge in 1921. He married Suzanne Lewy (born November 23, 1902, Breslau, died August 1987, Athens, Georgia) in 1925. In 1933 he was ousted from his position, when Hitler's racial decrees removed Jewish public servants. Therefore the Cohn family emigrated to Genoa, Italy, where Sigmund Cohn earned a doctor of jurisprudence with high honors in 1934. Subsequently he affiliated with a law practice and became an assistant to the chair of economics at the University of Genoa. The Cohn family was forced to emigrate again, when Mussolini, having joined with the Axis, instituted Hitler's racial decrees in Italy. Knowing the obstacles to obtaining a visa to enter the United States, Sigmund Cohn initially obtained visas enabling his family to emigrate to Colombia, South America or Costa Rica. At the same time he applied to numerous American colleges and universities for a teaching position which, if secured, would enable immigration to the US outside of the strictures of American immigration laws. He succeeded in obtaining an assistant professorship in languages at the University of Georgia. 1939 Sigmund Cohn came to Athens, Georgia, with his wife Susan and his two daughters, Eva and Marianne. Sigmund Cohn taught Italian, German, and Spanish courses at the University of Georgia until 1944, when he became an assistant professor at the law school.He became a full professor in 1947. He taught a variety of commercial law courses and initiated courses in international law. Along with Prof. Robert Leavell, Dr. Cohn played a central role in the recodification of Georgia's corporations law in the 1960s. He retired in 1964. In the early 1930s Sigmund Cohn co-authored two German books commenting on aspects of German law. He was the author of numerous book reviews and articles published in American law journals.List of documents in file (provided by donor)Photographs removed to Photograph Collectiondigitize

Representations of relative Cohn path algebras
No full textPolítica de acceso abierto tomada de: https://v2.sherpa.ac.uk/id/publication/11436We study relative Cohn path algebras, also known as Leavitt-Cohn path algebras, and we realize them as partial skew group rings. To do this we prove uniqueness theorems for relative Cohn path algebras. Furthermore, given any graph E we define E-relative branching systems and prove how they induce representations of the associated relative Cohn path algebra. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for faithfulness of the representations associated to E-relative branching systems. This
improves previous results known to Leavitt path algebras of row-finite graphs with no sinks. To prove this last result we show first a version, for relative Cohn-path algebras, of the reduction theorem for Leavitt path algebras.The first author was partially supported by the Spanish MEC and Fondos FEDER through project MTM2016-76327-C3-1-P; and by the Junta de Andalucía and Fondos FEDER, jointly, through project FQM-7156.

The Egenhofer–Cohn Hypothesis or, Topological Relativity?
No full textIn this chapter, we provide an overview of research on cognitively validating qualitative calculi, focusing on the region connection calculus (RCC) and Egenhofer’s intersection models (IM). These topological theories are often claimed to be foundational to spatial cognition, a concept we term the Egenhofer– Cohn Hypothesis. (The authors are aware of the limitations of the chosen title/ term. Neither Egenhofer nor Cohn necessarily support this claim in a strong form but they kindly agreed to have their names used here. Additionally, there are other approaches to topology, Cohn is the third author on the classic RCC paper, and Egenhofer published his work with co-authors. However, we feel that these two names best summarize the two most prominent topological theories in the spatial sciences.) We have been particularly interested in extending existing approaches into the realm of spatio-temporal representation and reasoning. We provide an overview on a series of experiments that we conducted to shed light on geographic event conceptualization and topology’s role in modeling and explaining cognitive behavior. Our framework also incorporates approaches to visually analyze cognitive behavior, allowing for interactive and in-depth analyses of cognitive conceptualizations. We present tangible results that can be distilled from generalizing from several experiments. These results show that the strong version of the Egenhofer– Cohn Hypothesis is not supported by all results; we suggest amendments to topological relationship specifications that are needed to serve as a sufficient basis for bridging formal and observed human spatial cognitive processes. We term this approach topological relativity
