Survey of Relation Theory • 9

Posted on May 5, 2025 by Jon Awbrey

In the present Survey of blog and wiki resources for 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 … Continue reading →

Survey of Pragmatic Semiotic Information • 9

Posted on May 4, 2025 by Jon Awbrey

This is a Survey of blog and wiki posts on a theory of information which grows out of pragmatic semiotic ideas.  All my projects are exploratory in character but this line of inquiry is more open‑ended than most.  The question … Continue reading →
