Differential Logic, Dynamic Systems, Tangent Functors • Discussion 9

Re: FB | Systems Sciences • Kenneth Lloyd Dear Kenneth, Mulling over recent discussions put me in a pensive frame of mind and my thoughts led me back to my first encounter with category theory.  I came across the term … Continue reading

Differential Logic, Dynamic Systems, Tangent Functors • Comment 1

Re: Differential Logic, Dynamic Systems, Tangent Functors • 1 Seeing as how quasi-neural models and the recurring issues of symbolic vs. connectionist paradigms have come round again, I thought I might revisit work I began initially in that context, investigating … Continue reading

Survey of Inquiry Driven Systems • 2

This is a Survey of blog and wiki posts on Inquiry Driven Systems, material I plan to refine toward a more compact and systematic treatment of the subject. An inquiry driven system is a system having among its state variables … Continue reading

Animated Logical Graphs • 33

A reader’s request for more examples of animated logical graphs prompted me to look again at the User Guide for my Theme One Program, whose exposition develops a series of logical graphs increasing in complexity from extremely simple to more substantial … Continue reading

Differential Logic • Discussion 3

Re: R.J. Lipton • P<NP Instead of boolean circuit complexity I would look at logical graph complexity, where those logical graphs are constructed from minimal negation operators. Physics once had a frame problem (complexity of dynamic updating) long before AI … Continue reading

Animated Logical Graphs • 32

Re: R.J. Lipton and K.W. Regan • Proof Checking Dear Dick/Ken, Here’s a place where I explore different shapes of proofs in a propositional calculus deriving from the graphical systems of Charles S. Peirce and G. Spencer Brown. Propositional Equation Reasoning Systems • Analysis … Continue reading

Relation Theory • Discussion 1

Re: Cybernetics • Arthur Phillips Responding to what I’ll abductively interpret as a plea for relevance from the cybernetic galley, let me give a quick review of where we are in this many-oared expedition. Our reading of Ashby (see Survey … Continue reading

It’s been a while, so let’s review … Tables A1 and A2 showed two ways of organizing the sixteen boolean functions or propositional forms on two variables, as expressed in several notations.  For ease of reference, here are fresh copies … Continue reading

Re: Peirce List • Edwina Taborsky I first encountered Peirce’s Collected Papers sometime during my freshman year in one of the quieter corners of the Michigan State Math Library where I used to hide out to study and shortly after … Continue reading

Propositional Forms on Two Variables Table A2 arranges the propositional forms on two variables according to another plan, sorting propositions with similar shapes into seven subclasses.  Thereby hangs many a tale, to be told in time. Table A2.  Propositional Forms … Continue reading
