Quantum Resource Distributions: Geometric Analysis and Computational Classification
Quantum computing is expected to outperform classical systems by harnessing intrinsically non-classical resources. Yet, the precise origin of this quantum advantage remains elusive. While entanglement and coherence have long been viewed as essential, results such as the Gottesman–Knill theorem …

Sharp and Unsharp Structures. A Unifying Framework for Algebraic Logic
This work lies within the realm of algebraic logic, focusing on structures that are central in their respective fields and extensively studied. In the first part, it investigates the categorical equivalence between (indexed) Boolean algebras and regular double Stone algebras. Despite their strong …

Managing Ubiquitous Scientific Knowledge Objects
Scientific discourse, as the basic unit of dissemination and exploitation of research results, has steadily enhanced their accessibility and reusability in response to the advancement of web technologies. A highly semantic enriched publication always makes its information and data much easier to …

Logical and algebraic structures from Quantum Computation
The main motivation for this thesis is given by the open problems regarding the axiomatisation of quantum computational logics. This thesis will be structured as follows: in Chapter 2 we will review some basics of universal algebra and functional analysis. In Chapters 3 through 6 the fundamentals …

LEARNING, FORECASTING AND CAUSATION AS COMPRESSION.
… beyond the scope of this discussion, some methodological aspects can be considered on a conceptual level, keeping in the background the possibility of proceeding with formally rigorous arguments. The comparison between modeling and automatic methods will allow for a better framing of the role of …

The Twenty-First Century Mechanistic Theory of Human Cognition: A Critical Appraisal
The Mechanistic Theory of Human Cognition (MTHC) is currently one of the most influential fundamental theories in the field of cognitive science. The main idea is to provide an account of what human neuro-cognitive complex mechanisms are and how to explain them. The theory proposes an ambitious …

AS HIGH AS EYES CAN SEE: A MODERATE LIBERALISM FOR THE ADMISSIBLE CONTENTS OF PERCEPTION
Una questione cruciale nell'ambito della filosofia contemporanea della percezione consiste nel determinare ciò che possiamo percepire, in contrapposizione a ciò che possiamo solo pensare. In questa tesi, difendo una visione "liberale" della percezione che accetta che possiamo percepire alcuni …

TRACTABLE DEPTH-BOUNDED APPROXIMATIONS TO SOME PROPOSITIONAL LOGICS. TOWARDS MORE REALISTIC MODELS OF LOGICAL AGENTS.
The depth-bounded approach seeks to provide realistic models of reasoners. Recognizing that most useful logics are idealizations in that they are either undecidable or likely to be intractable, the approach accounts for how they can be approximated in practice by resource-bounded agents. The …

Algebraic structures from quantum and fuzzy logics
This thesis concerns the wide research area of logic. In particular, the first part is devoted to analyze different kinds of relational systems (orthogonal and residuated), by investigating the properties of the algebras associated to them. The second part is focused on algebras of logic, in …

UN INCONTRO TRA DARWINISMO E PRAGMATISMO: LA FILOSOFIA EVOLUZIONISTICA DI CHAUNCEY WRIGHT
… fields, but even in philosophical and epistemological thought. However, in the years that followed the publication of The Origin of Species (1859), virtually nobody, among scientists and philosophers, agreed with the principle of natural selection put forward by Darwin as the main explanation …
