Re: Dick Lipton & Ken Regan • (1) • (2) We continue with the differential analysis of the proposition in Example 1. Example 1 (1) A proposition defined on one universe of discourse has natural extensions to larger universes of discourse. … Continue reading

Re: Dick Lipton & Ken Regan • (1) • (2) Putting all thought of the Frankl Conjecture out of our minds for the moment, let’s return to the proposition in Example 1 and work through its differential analysis from scratch. Example … Continue reading

Re: Dick Lipton & Ken Regan • (1) • (2) Let’s go back to the “key lemma” from (2) and try it out on a simple example, just to get a sense of what the terms mean. Lemma.  Let be … Continue reading

Re: Dick Lipton & Ken Regan • (1) • (2) Supplied by the cache of definitions from Post 1, I can return to the passage from (2) that seemed to jog a bit of memory and see if what I imagined … Continue reading

Re: Dick Lipton and Ken Regan • (1) • (2) I need to think a little about the context Lipton and Regan have wrapped around the Frankl Conjecture, if not exactly about the problem itself.  This will be a scratch-worky … Continue reading

Re: Peirce List • Stephen Rose Just a note to anchor a series of recurring thoughts that come to mind in relation to a Peirce List discussion of entropy etc., but I won’t have much to say on the bio-chemico-physico-thermo-dynamic … Continue reading
