Aristotle, by contrast, took these propositions to be of the same logical form. In his view, both are simple categorical propositions in which one being is predicated of another being, universal or particular. I shall argue that Aristotle adopted this view because he thought that it provides a metaphysically perspicuous representation of the structure of beings underlying a science. Thus, while his system of categorical logic does not possess the deductive and expressive power of Frege's system, it is well suited for representing what Aristotle took to be explanatory scientific demonstrations.\r\n\r\nMarko Malink is Professor of Philosophy & Classics. He received an M. A. from the University of Leipzig (2004), where he studied Logic and Ancient Greek. He earned a Dr. Phil. in Philosophy from Humboldt University of Berlin (2008). His primary area of research is ancient philosophy, especially ancient logic and metaphysics. Malink also has interests in the history of logic, philosophy of language, and linguistics. His book Aristotle\u2019s Modal Syllogistic was published by Harvard University Press in 2013. Some of his articles were selected for inclusion in The Philosopher's Annual, which aims to collect the ten best articles published in philosophy each year (2013, 2016, 2018). Prior to joining the Faculty at NYU in 2014, Malink has held positions at Humboldt University of Berlin and the University of Chicago.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"129591-21863820@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/129591", "building_id":"1000197", "building_name":"Mason Hall", "campus_maps_id":"540", "room":"2306", "location_name":"Mason Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Philosophy"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Philosophy", "group_id":"3186", "website":"http:\/\/www.lsa.umich.edu\/philosophy" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2024\/12\/crop-event_129591_original-1.jpeg" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21863820 } , "131900-21869379": { "datetime_modified":"20250127T090800", "datetime_start":"20250124T150000", "datetime_end":"20250124T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2025-01-24", "date_end":"2025-01-24", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"DocDi", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"DocDi: Discussion Group", "event_subtitle":"Discussion Group", "event_type":"Meeting", "event_type_id":"14", "description":"The DocDi Group is a collaborative forum, open to both students and faculty, who share an interest in the areas of Field Linguistics, Fieldwork Methods, Language Documentation, and Language Description.

If P is a 0-1 matrix, Ex(P,n) is the maximum number of 1s in an n x n 0-1 matrix that does not contain any submatrix that dominates P. Every 0-1 pattern P can be regarded as the incidence matrix of a bipartite graph, in which the two sides of the bipartition are ordered. Thus, this definition can be seen as a generalization of the Turan extremal function (for subgraph avoidance).\r\n\r\nPattern-avoiding 0-1 matrices have been studied since the late 1980s, and yet the precise relationship between 0-1 matrices and Turan theory is still poorly understood. For many years the foremost open problem has been to characterize the extremal functions of acyclic patterns (those whose graphs correspond to forests). In 2005 Pach and Tardos conjectured that Ex(P,n) = O(n polylog(n)) for any acyclic P. We give a simple refutation of the Pach-Tardos conjecture by giving a class of acyclic patterns for which Ex(P,n) > n 2^{sqrt{log n}}.\r\n\r\nJoint work with G\u00e1bor Tardos.
