Posted on November 18, 2021 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Genus, Species, Pie Charts, Radio Buttons • 1 Re: Laws of Form • William Bricken WB: Here’s an analysis of “Boolean” structure.  It’s actually a classification of the structure of distinctions containing 2 and 3 variables.  The work was … Continue reading →

Functional Logic • Inquiry and Analogy • Preliminaries

Posted on November 14, 2021 by Jon Awbrey

Functional Logic • Inquiry and Analogy This report discusses C.S. Peirce’s treatment of analogy, placing it in relation to his overall theory of inquiry.  We begin by introducing three basic types of reasoning Peirce adopted from classical logic.  In Peirce’s analysis … Continue reading →

Survey of Relation Theory • 5

Posted on November 8, 2021 by Jon Awbrey

In this Survey of blog and wiki posts on Relation Theory, relations are viewed from the perspective of combinatorics, in other words, as a topic in discrete mathematics, with special attention to finite structures and concrete set-theoretic constructions, many of … Continue reading →

Triadic Relations • 2

Posted on November 8, 2021 by Jon Awbrey

Triadic Relations • Examples from Mathematics For the sake of topics to be taken up later, it is useful to examine a pair of triadic relations in tandem.  We will construct two triadic relations, and each of which is a … Continue reading →
