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

Category Theory • Comment 1

I’m deep in the middle of upgrading my intro to sign relations and I am determined to stick to it this time but there will be a phase when it’s critical to bring category theory to bear on the development.  … Continue reading

Sign Relations • Discussion 9

Re: Sign Relations • Ennotation Re: Peirce List • Helmut Raulien Dear Helmut, Thanks for your comments.  They prompt me to say a little more about the mathematical character of the sign relational models I’m using. Peirce without mathematics is … Continue reading

Sign Relations • Semiotic Equivalence Relations 2

A few items of notation are useful in discussing equivalence relations in general and semiotic equivalence relations in particular. In general, if is an equivalence relation on a set then every element of belongs to a unique equivalence class under … Continue reading

Sign Relations • Discussion 8

Re: Sign Relations • Ennotation Re: Peirce List • Helmut Raulien Dear Helmut, The important thing now is to extend our perspective beyond one sign at a time and one object, sign, interpretant at a time to comprehending a sign … Continue reading

Sign Relations • Semiotic Equivalence Relations 1

A semiotic equivalence relation (SER) is a special type of equivalence relation arising in the analysis of sign relations.  Generally speaking, any equivalence relation induces a partition of the underlying set of elements, known as the domain or space of the … Continue reading

Sign Relations • Ennotation

A third aspect of a sign’s complete meaning concerns the reference its objects have to its interpretants, which has no standard name in semiotics.  It would be called an induced relation in graph theory or the result of relational composition … Continue reading

Sign Relations • Discussion 7

Re: Sign Relations • Definition Re: Ontolog Forum • Alex Shkotin Dear Alex, Please forgive the long and winding dissertation.  I’ve been through many discussions of Peirce’s definition of “logic as formal semiotic” but I keep discovering new ways of … 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
