Modeling the Dialectic

arXiv:0810.0768

Abstract

Three formal first-order finite dialectical schemes are investigated. It is shown that schemes 1 and 2 have significantly different finite models. Further, an infinite natural number model for schemes 1, 2, 3 is constructed, and it is shown that scheme 3 has no finite model.

Plain Tex, 6 pages. Among other new disclosures, for schemes 1 and 2, an infinite hyperfinite model and infinitely many finite models are added
