math question; Yves Decoste
Jul. 18th, 2010 01:27 amMath question:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_%28order_theory%29#History
"Ideals were introduced first by Marshall H. Stone, who derived their name
from the ring ideals of abstract algebra. He adopted this terminology
because, using the isomorphism of the categories of Boolean algebras and of
Boolean rings, both notions do indeed coincide."
For these ideals we have a dual notion -- filters. Can one pull that
duality back to ring and algebra ideals?

Scanning laser ophthalmoscopy
Apr. 17th, 2009 03:12 pmNow the eye exam can be made without eye drops which dilate the pupils, so one can read or drive afterwards. Another good thing is that the resulting pictures are stored, so it is possible to track the changes over the years.
And the pictures are pretty cool and resemble some of pictures obtained from space telescopes, which is not so surprising, since the same methods of adaptive optics are used:

Дмитрий Крымов
Dec. 12th, 2008 05:41 pmОдно из самых интересных московских впечатлений -- двойной спекталь Дмитрия Крымова в Школе Драматического Искусства на Сретенке, "Родословная" и "Шостакович":
http://info.sdart.ru/item/603
"Родословная" -- особенно яркая. Название "спектакль" или "театр" применимо к тому, что он делает, довольно условно, поскольку он использует элементы разных жанров, и у меня нет впечатления, что драматургия -- основная компонента, а остальные -- вспомогательные. Если верить их сайту, то у них еще есть билеты на 14-17 декабря и 24-26 января..
Еще я видел очень яркую выставку Оскара Рабина в филиале Третьяковки около Парка Культуры, но она уже кончилась..

a large collection of these photos (traffic):

В середине 2000-х годов в Раменском был реализован проект по художественному оформлению группы типовых жилых домов, весьма необычный для России. В центре города было установлено много разнообразных скульптур, некоторые из них созданы по мотивам советских мультфильмов.
