Survey of Relation Theory • 3

Posted on January 17, 2017 by Jon Awbrey

In this Survey of blog and wiki posts on 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 of … Continue reading →

Posted on May 12, 2016 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Peirce List Discussion • Ben Udell I read Peirce primarily for his insights into logic, mathematics, and science, which are considerable enough to occupy several lifetimes, and I read him the same way I read other thinkers in those … Continue reading →

Re: Peirce List Discussion • Ben Udell For my part, I see a distinctive paradigm of thought and practice immanent in Peirce’s work and all I’ve been trying to do for many years now has been to nudge it a … Continue reading →

Readings On Determination

Posted on April 11, 2016 by Jon Awbrey

This is an anchor post for a set of readings on determination, taking a census of the senses Peirce used in his pragmatic approach to information, inquiry, science, and signs with a pinch of readings from other writers for historical … Continue reading →

Relations & Their Relatives • Discussion 10

Posted on July 2, 2015 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Peirce List Discussion • Helmut Raulien The facts about relational reducibility are relatively easy to understand and I included links to relevant discussions in my earlier survey of relation theory. The following article discusses relational reducibility and irreducibility in … Continue reading →

Relations & Their Relatives • Discussion 9

Posted on July 2, 2015 by Jon Awbrey

Re: Peirce List Discussion • Jeffrey Brian Downard In viewing the structures of relation spaces, even the smallest dyadic cases we’ve been exploring so far, no one need feel nonplussed at the lack of obviousness in this domain.  Anyone who … Continue reading →
