Notes

The notes below are essentially blog posts, but for which it was more convenient to upload the material directly as a .pdf. These are not intended for publication, though might be of some interest in any case. (Actually, on some time horizon, I'd like to get most of my existing blog posts into decent .pdf format, but there are only so many hours in the day!)
