- 082349872349872 2y agoPrigogine 212-213 explicitly mentions groups vs. semigroups! (and here, too, JvN has left footprints. Et in arcadia is.) The difference, of course, being that in semigroups we can "fall" inescapably from one J-class to another, but in groups every* element is in the same eggbox (compare transitivity with Boethius and the Wheel of Fortune).

- gradschoolfail 2y agoOf course! Even we in neoEdwardia, there is peterpan https://archive.is/ldQy4 https://archive.is/ldQy4 >https://archive.is/t3wUW https://archive.is/t3wUW (Shouldnt Pan the Smith be asleep here?)

Interesting that these toga-clad truth-loving Arcadians predate Wonder Woman?

BTW, I messed up with the conjugation: of course conjugating an identity yields itself, but even if I don't recall it properly there is some way to get a torsor from a group by messing with "phase".
- gradschoolfail 2y agoAccording to JCB? you might be more interested in torsion, though.. Ps: i think edwardian eras are a transitional period where, to stand apart from the previous era fetishizing wisdom (& the payment of dues), intellectuals began to focus their attention on the (often full of youth & signaling sprezzatura) acolytes of truth (& no taxes)
- 082349872349872 2y agoYes. (and I'm interested in torsion, specifically how to hook together torsion groups via co-cycles, but haven't made much progress here over decades) In principle there's a galois connection between wisdom and truth but in practice the adjoints are not easy to compute.
