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

Survey of Relation Theory • 5

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

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

Triadic Relations • 1

Of triadic Being the multitude of forms is so terrific that I have usually shrunk from the task of enumerating them;  and for the present purpose such an enumeration would be worse than superfluous:  it would be a great inconvenience. … Continue reading

Relation Theory • Species of Dyadic Relations Returning to 2‑adic relations, it is useful to describe several familiar classes of objects in terms of their local and numerical incidence properties.  Let be an arbitrary 2‑adic relation.  The following properties of … Continue reading
