Survey of Animated Logical Graphs • 1

Posted on May 10, 2015 by Jon Awbrey

This is one of several Survey posts I’ll be drafting from time to time, starting with minimal stubs and collecting links to the better variations on persistent themes I’ve worked on over the years.  After that I’ll look to organizing … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List Discussion • Jim Willgoose At root we are dealing with a genre of very abstract formal systems.  They have grammars that determine their well-formed expressions and rules that determine the permissible transformations among expressions, but they lack … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List • Helmut Raulien The divisor of relation signified by is a dyadic relation on the set of positive integers and thus may be understood as a subset of the cartesian product   It is an example of … Continue reading →

Here are two ways of looking at the divisibility relation, a dyadic relation of fundamental importance in number theory. Table 1 shows the first few ordered pairs of the relation on positive integers corresponding to the relative term, “divisor of”.  … Continue reading →

What is the relationship between “logical relatives” and “mathematical relations”?  The word relative used as a noun in logic is short for relative term — as such it refers to an item of language used to denote a formal object. … Continue reading →

Sign relations are special cases of triadic relations in much the same way binary operations in mathematics are special cases of triadic relations.  It amounts to a minor complication that we participate in sign relations whenever we talk or think … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List Discussion • HP A computational problem is defined as a set of problem instances with specified properties.  An algorithm solves a problem if it computes the correct answer to every problem instance in that set. The use … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List • Helmut Raulien It’s fair to say most of my university coursework leaned to the theoretical side but I did cobble together a respectable enough background in computing, statistics, and industrial-organizational styles of systems and simulation that … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List • Jim Willgoose It’s almost 50 years now since I first encountered the volumes of Peirce’s Collected Papers in the math library at Michigan State, and shortly afterwards a friend called my attention to the entry for … Continue reading →
