Suppose we add another individual to our initial universe of discourse, arriving at a three-point universe It might be thought that adding one more element to the universe of discourse would allow slightly more complicated relations to be compounded from … Continue reading

Peirce’s 1880 “Algebra Of Logic” Chapter 3 • Comment 7.4

Dyadic relations enjoy yet another form of graph-theoretic representation as labeled bipartite graphs or labeled bigraphs.  I’ll just call them bigraphs here, letting the labels be understood in this logical context. The figure below shows the bigraphs of the 16 … Continue reading

Peirce’s 1880 “Algebra Of Logic” Chapter 3 • Comment 7.3

Dyadic relations have graph-theoretic representations as labeled directed graphs with loops, also known as labeled pseudo-digraphs in some schools of graph theory.  I’ll just call them digraphs here, letting the labels and loops be understood in this logical context. The … Continue reading

Peirce’s 1880 “Algebra Of Logic” Chapter 3 • Comment 7.2

Because it can sometimes be difficult to reconnect abstractions with their concrete instances, especially after the abstract types have become autonomous and taken on a life of their own, let us resort to a simple concrete case and examine the … Continue reading
