Re: Question about logic sentence

can x even stand alone without E?
If so, then (x,E) is not definable and cannot exist in this equation.

Re: Question about logic sentence

After consulting with the same professor, the three of us (Ciana, myself and the prof) have come to the conclusion that there are three undefined scripts in your equation.

ALL of your symbols MUST be clarified in order for the equation to make any sense.
If action t is a negative action, it would change the entire outcome of the puzzle. If E is subjective, then x is negated, but if E is objective, then x has a positive effect on the rest of it.

We`re positive that if all symbols are clarified, then this can be rectified without further delay.
Excellent theorim, by the way...it has attracted the attention of many people outside the forum.

Re: Question about logic sentence

Thanks! I'm happy that it's attracted such attention and hopefully it will be useful to someone. I should have a rough draft of the paper that I'm writing within the month, and will post it then.

Re: Question about logic sentence

And also, what school/professor? If that's too personal I understand.

He`s a retired professor. He taught in Africa, Quebec, and a few other places.
My kids call him grandpa.
