Dear FIS Colleagues,

Briefly responding to Malcolm, scientific communication involves different styles and contexts, from the highly informal to the rigors of standard publication. This list embraces such plurality, but above all emphasizes the deep values of scholarship: openness, tolerance, kindness... just the opposite of the acid styles frequent in social networks and the like. I appreciate his interest about those requested references, and they will spontaneously appear along the ongoing discussion (it was a way to present the new invitees in this session). But the case of KPC is too complex (really a "story"). I will be glad to tell it in some pause of the discussion. Better if we keep the focus on the exciting ideas presented...

Best--Pedro

As this is an academic/scientific list, may I request that when an author is mentioned, such as Kenneth Paul Collins or the Fingelkurts, at least some rudimentary citationdata is provided?

An ISBN, a link to Google Books or Amazon, a catalog ID... something... anything...

Surely, that should be a minimum requirement for scholarly discourse?

    ** At the time being I am not aware of similar directions, except
    a few
    isolated papers and a remarkable maverick working in late 1980s
    (Kenneth
    Paul Collins), with whom I could cooperate a little (with his help, I
    prepared a booklet in Spanish) .

    ** I think Collins was a (doomed, ill-fated) precursor of both the
    topological ideas and the quest for dynamic optimization principles,
    somehow reminding contemporary ideas, eg, the great work of Alexander
    and Andrew Fingelkurts, who are also inscribed in the list for this
    discussion.
