Church's
Church's is a high-end footwear manufacturer that was founded in 1873, by Thomas Church, in Northampton, England. In 1999 the company came under the control of Italian luxury fashion house Prada in a US$170 million deal. History Between the two world wars, Church's became actively involved in the development of the footwear industry in general. In 1919, the British Boot, Shoe and Allied Trades Research Association was created with Church's as a founder-member. As a result of this partnership, the Northampton Technical College was established in 1925. This went on to become the University of Northampton in 2005. The family business was taken over by Prada in 1999, in a US$170 million deal, and has since expanded its outlets overseas. In 2014 the company employed 650 people. The same year, Church's took over adjacent premises in St James Road, formerly a tram and later a bus depot, in anticipation of further expansion which was expected to create up to 140 more jobs.

Church's Chicken
Church's Texas Chicken is an American fast food restaurant chain that specializes in fried chicken and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. The chain was founded as Church's Fried Chicken To-Go by George W. Church Sr. on April 17, 1952, in San Antonio, Texas, across the street from The Alamo. Church's Texas Chicken trades as Texas Chicken or Church's Chicken in many countries. The chain is currently owned by American private equity firm High Bluff Capital Partners. As of 2017, Church's Texas Chicken had more than 1,700 franchised and company-owned locations in 26 countries. History In 1952, retired chicken incubator salesman George W. Church Sr. opened the first Church's Chicken, named Church's Fried Chicken To-Go, in San Antonio, Texas. Initially, Church's Chicken was a single walk-up establishment that only sold fried chicken, and two pieces of chicken and a roll cost 49 cents. Church's Chicken added fries and jalapeños to its menu in 1955. To allow customers to see the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Church's Theorem
In mathematics and computer science, the ' (, ) is a challenge posed by David Hilbert and Wilhelm Ackermann in 1928. The problem asks for an algorithm that considers, as input, a statement and answers "Yes" or "No" according to whether the statement is ''universally valid'', i.e., valid in every structure satisfying the axioms. Completeness theorem By the completeness theorem of first-order logic, a statement is universally valid if and only if it can be deduced from the axioms, so the ' can also be viewed as asking for an algorithm to decide whether a given statement is provable from the axioms using the rules of logic. In 1936, Alonzo Church and Alan Turing published independent papers showing that a general solution to the ' is impossible, assuming that the intuitive notion of "effectively calculable" is captured by the functions computable by a Turing machine (or equivalently, by those expressible in the lambda calculus). This assumption is now known as the Church–Turing t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Church's Thesis (constructive Mathematics)
In constructive mathematics, Church's thesis is an axiom stating that all total functions are computable functions. This principle has formalizations in various mathematical frameworks. The similarly named Church–Turing thesis states that every effectively calculable function is a computable function. The constructivist variant is stronger in the sense that with it any function is computable. For any property \exists y. \varphi(x,y) proven not to be validated for all x in a computable manner, the contrapositive of the axiom implies that this then not validated by a total functional at all. So adopting restricts the notion of ''function'' to that of ''computable function''. The axiom is clearly incompatible with systems that prove the existence of functions also proven not to be computable. For example, Peano arithmetic is such a system. Concretely, the constructive Heyting arithmetic with as an additional axiom is able to disprove some instances of variants of the principl ...
