Animated Logical Graphs • 30

Posted on August 25, 2019 by Jon Awbrey

The duality between Entitative and Existential interpretations of logical graphs is a good example of a mathematical symmetry, in this case a symmetry of order two.  Symmetries of this and higher orders give us conceptual handles on excess complexity in … Continue reading →
