  • We shall introduce the concept of almost causality condition. By defining the almost causality condition we would like to examine the relationship between Woodhouse's causality principle and other known causality conditions. We show that a series of causality conditions can be characterized by using the almost causality condition.

  • In this paper, I review the origins, activities, and influences on the future mathematical development of the Analytical Society of Cambridge.

This article reveals that the new analytical studies developed characteristically in Britain's specific intellectual and social context of the late 18th century and the early 19th century.
