On the Existence of the Augustin Mean
No full textThe existence of a unique Augustin mean and its invariance under the Augustin operator are established for arbitrary input distributions with finite Augustin information for channels with countably generated output σ-algebras. The existence is established by representing the conditional Rényi divergence as a lower semi-continuous and convex functional in an appropriately chosen uniformly convex space and then invoking the Banach-Saks property in conjunction with the lower semi-continuity and the convexity. A new family of operators is proposed to establish the invariance of the Augustin mean under the Augustin operator for orders greater than one. Some members of this new family strictly decrease the conditional Rényi divergence, when applied to the second argument of the divergence, unless the second argument is a fixed point of the Augustin operator
The Augustin Capacity and Center
No full textFor any channel, the existence of a unique Augustin mean is established for any positive order and probability mass function on the input set. The Augustin mean is shown to be the unique fixed point of an operator defined in terms of the order and the input distribution. The Augustin information is shown to be continuously differentiable in the order. For any channel and convex constraint set with finite Augustin capacity, the existence of a unique Augustin center and the associated van Erven-Harremoes bound are established. The Augustin-Legendre (A-L) information, capacity, center, and radius are introduced, and the latter three are proved to be equal to the corresponding Renyi-Gallager quantities. The equality of the A-L capacity to the A-L radius for arbitrary channels and the existence of a unique A-L center for channels with finite A-L capacity are established. For all interior points of the feasible set of cost constraints, the cost constrained Augustin capacity and center are expressed in terms of the A-L capacity and center. Certain shift-invariant families of probabilities and certain Gaussian channels are analyzed as examples
Augustin Kažotić and Thomas Aquinas
No full textProučavanje prve generacije učenika Tome Akvinskoga ostalo je još uvijek dosta neistraženo. Studije o prvim Tominim učenicima osobito su značajne za poznavanje načina kako se prenosila i u kojim sve područjima misao Zajedničkog naučitelja (Doctor communis). Stoga i ovaj prilog ulazi u to područje istraživanja. Članak najprije prikazuje kako se stoljećima u raznim izvorima isticalo da je Augustin Kažotić bio izravni učenik Tome Akvinskoga te da je pohađao njegova predavanja za vrijeme studija na sveučilištu u Parizu. Zatim doktrinarno analizira kontekst Augustinova boravka na studiju u Parizu pokazujući da je Tomin nauk još uvijek bio živo prisutan u akademskim krugovima. Autor nadalje potvrđuje kako je dominikanski red imao važnu ulogu u porastu doktrinarnog utjecaja Tome Akvinskog te pokazuje da je u tome i Augustin Kažotić dao svoj doprinos. Stoga autor argumentirano analizira Kažotićevu povezanost s Tomom Akvinskim na nekoliko doktrinarnih područja. Na kraju prosuđuje i doprinos Augustina Kažotića kanonizaciji Tome Akvinskog. Članak potvrđuje kako je život i djelo Augustina Kažotića značajno svjedočanstvo za poznavanje prenošenja misli sv. Tome Akvinskoga, posebice u razdoblju prije same njegove kanonizacije.The study of the first generation of students of Thomas Aquinas has remained quite unexplored. Studies of Thomas’s first students are particularly important for knowing how the thought of the Doctor communis was transmitted and in what areas. Therefore, this paper also enters this area of research. The article first shows how for centuries it has been pointed out in various sources that Augustin Kažotić was a direct student of Thomas Aquinas and that he attended his lectures while studying at the University of Paris. The author then doctrinally analyse the context of Augustin’s stay in Paris to study, showing that Thomas’s teaching was still vividly present in academic circles. The author further confirms that the Dominican Order played an important role in the growth of the doctrinal influence of Thomas Aquinas and shows that Augustin Kažotić also contributed to this. Therefore, the author analyzes Kažotić’s connection with Thomas Aquinas in several doctrinal areas. Finally, he judges the contribution of Augustin Kažotić to the canonization of Thomas Aquinas. The article confirms that the life and work of Augustin Kažotić is a significant testimony to the knowledge of the transmission of the thoughts of St. Thomas Aquinas, especially in the period before his canonization
A New Characterization Of Augustin Information And Mean
No full textA new method to characterize Augustin information and mean is proposed. The proposed method allows for briefer and more direct proofs for the previously known results and leads to new observations related to this new characterization for classical channels. For classical-quantum channels, the proposed method extends the results, such as the existence of Augustin mean and Augustin fixed point property, to models with separable Hilbert spaces at the output
Raisonner à plus d'un niveau : le point de vue culturel en géographie
No full textCulture is here defined as that which gives a meaning to the world, by way of hierarchizing facts, Le. establishing coherent systems of significations. A certain distanciation (in space or time) is necessary to grasp the logic of such systems; and this definition relies on an analogical concatenation of facts pertaining to different orders. Geography insists on material structures, but the cultural point of view in geography should be to search for homologous structures in other orders of reality (i.e. social and mental facts).La culture est ici définie comme ce qui donne un sens au monde par la hiérarchisation des faits en établissant un système cohérent de signification. Une certaine distanciation (dans le temps ou dans l'espace) est nécessaire pour saisir la logique de tels systèmes et cette définition relie en un enchaînement analogique des faits relevant de différents ordres. La géographie insiste sur les structures matérielles, mais le point de vue culturel en géographie doit être la quête de structures homologues dans d'autres ordres de la réalité, c'est-à-dire dans les faits sociaux et mentaux.Berque AugustinBerque Augustin.

Famous optician: Augustin Fresnel and the wave theory of light
No full textAugustin Fresnel was born in 1788, in the Normandy village of Broglie where his father was employed as an architect by the duc de Broglie. The author of the wave theory of light was thus born on lands that would later belong to Louis de Broglie, the author of the wave theory of matter, whose birth came a century later. Fresnel’s work was accomplished in less than a decade
Memory in the theological anthropology of St. Augustine: “In memoria est cogitandi modus”
No full textThe place of memory in the theological anthropology of St. Augustine has its roots in the platonie epistemological tradition. Augustine actively engages with this tradition in his early writings in a manner that is both philosophically sophisticated and doctrinally consistent with his later, more overtly theological, writings. From the Cassiciacum dialogues through De musica, Augustine points to the central importance of memory: he examines this power of the soul as something that mediates sense-perception and understanding, while explicitly deferring a more profound treatment of it until Confessiones and De trinitate. In these two texts, memory is the foundation for the location of the imago Dei in the mind. It becomes the basis for the spiritual experience of the embodied creature, and a source of the profound anxiety that results from the sensed opposition of human time and divine time (aeterna ratio). This tension is contained and resolved, to a limited extent, in Augustine's Christology, in the ability of a paradoxical incarnation to unify the temporal and the eternal (in Confessions 11 and 12), and the life of faith (scientia) with the promised contemplation of the divine (sapientia, in De trinitate 12-14)
