	Elimination theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In algebraic geometry, elimination theory is the classical name for algorithmic approaches to eliminating between polynomials of several variables.
		The historical development of commutative algebra, which was initially called ideal theory, is closely linked to concepts in elimination theory: ideas of Kronecker, who wrote a major paper on the subject, were adapted by Hilbert and effectively 'linearised' while dropping the explicit constructive content.
		Elimination of quantifiers is a term used in mathematical logic to explain that in some cases - algebraic geometry of projective space over an algebraically closed field being one - existential quantifiers can be removed.

	Proof theory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Proof theory, studied as a branch of mathematical logic, represents proofs as formal mathematical objects, facilitating their analysis by mathematical techniques.
		Structural proof theory is the subdiscipline of proof theory that studies proof calculi that support a notion of analytic proof.
		Structural proof theory is connected to type theory by means of the Curry-Howard correspondence, which observes a structural analogy between the process of normalisation in the natural deduction calculus and beta reduction in the typed lambda calculus.

	Proof theory - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The subject of proof theory has a significant if somewhat opaque prehistory as metamathematics, the proposed theory under development from the start of the twentieth century, for a generation, under the influence of David Hilbert.
		Hilbert's ideas seem to have been based on an analogy, in fact false, with the elimination theory of algebraic geometry familiar to him from his early work in algebra.
		Kurt Gödel's seminal work on proof theory first advanced, then refuted this program: his completeness theorem seemed to bring Hilbert's dream of reducing all mathematics to a small, finitarily meaningful core within reach, then his incompleteness theorems showed that the dream was unattainable.

	Ockham's Connotation Theory and Ontological Elimination
		First, this theory implies that every categorematic term in written or spoken language is necessarily equivocal, since a written or spoken categorematic term (e.g., 'cat') is subordinate to one concept (e.g., "subject-cat") when it is in the subject position, and another concept (e.g., "object-cat") when it is in the predicate position.
		Briefly, the theory of "exponibles" is a theory that reduces an "exponible" proposition - a categorical proposition in its outward form - to a molecular or hypothetical proposition (e.g., 'Socrates is blind' is reduced to 'Socrates exists', 'Socrates should have sight', and 'Socrates does not have sight').
		In general, the theory of "exponibles" is a semantical theory of propositions, while the connotation theory a theory of terms.

	Dictionary of Philosophy of Mind - eliminativism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Like its predecessor, the mind-brain identity theory, eliminativism claims that it is an empirical fact, rather than a conceptual necessity, that mental states are identical with brain states, and that this fact is justified only by scientific evidence.
		Instead the old theory is often eliminated, and replaced with a better theory that rejects or ignores the ontological assumptions of the old theory.
		The obvious objection to causal theories of reference is that surely not all causal relationships between language users and objects are reference relations, and it is not easy to figure out which causal relations are reference relations and which are not.

	CH4 Loss from (CH)4N+revisited: how does this high energy elimination compete with ·CH3 loss? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		However, according to results obtained and presented by RRKM theory, methane elimination through this transition state would be too slow to compete with methyl loss.
		It is unlikely that CH is actually lost by a concerted elimination because only a small fraction of the reverse activation energy becomes translational energy, whereas concerted eliminations usually convert substantial fractions of their reverse activation energies into translational energy.
		Thus it is concluded that CH elimination from (CH occurs by loss of ·CH followed by loss of H· at all energies, even though that is a higher energy process than methane elimination.

		If R is a commutative ring and I is an ideal in R, the subring R[It] of the polynomial ring R[t] in one variable over R is called the Rees algebra of I. It is closely related to the construction of the blow-up in algebraic geometry.
