Jerry, list; I depicted it as a "self-relative" in order to facilitate the lines for an equivalence class.(reflexive, symmetric, and transitive properties) But it is degenerate. Thus, the apparent bipartite nature is just that; apparent. There are other ways to depict a monad such as a flower with the petals looping back on to the center point. (providing that there are open places for n number of other petals) In the diagram, there are only three individuals. (If there was only one, you would have a singleton class.) But the small case "a" is a general term. The key here is that there is no other term "b" or individual "B." Thus, it is non-relative. The individuals A1, A2, A3 are type 0 entities ( zeroarity, medads.)

Technical Correction to my message: strike "complete" and replace with "bipartite" After closer look at Jim's graph, I now believe that the figure was intended as a bipartite graph; the pairs of parentheses in the diagram appear to denote collections of symbols, as well as individuals related to other individual symbols.Thus, the symbols for "a" appear to me to be part of two different notational systems. Was that your intent, Jim? CheersJerry On Feb 14, 2015, at 10:30 PM, Jerry LR Chandler wrote:Jim, List: Your diagram captures the essence of what I was seeking to communicate. If one addresses the notion of an individual, then a singular individual, then a singular symbol, is interpreted as a logical correspondence relationship with a single line that signifies the exact numerical correspondence of a one-one relation. Your diagram shows the meaning of a symbol when a population of symbols, each with the same identity is logically interpreted with respect to a proposition engaging the entire population. Since each symbol has the same meaning, the complete graph you show illustrates the the algebra very nicely. There is no difference that makes a difference among the enumerated set of symbols that you present. The meaning of your alignment of the complete graph must be contrasted with the alignment of points along a line.All points of the domain correspond with all points of the range and vice versa in your diagram.(This is not the case for a mathematical function for a variable, except for the special case of a constant.) The difference then becomes readily apparent in the two diagrams. This difference of interpretation also becomes readily apparent in the constructions of chemical structures where symbols may represent different valences / handedness. Excellent insight! Do you consider your diagram to be an icon or a symbol? (It's indexicality is obvious (I hope!))How would you relate your diagram to Shannon information theory? Does it infer perfect transmission of information when A is an identity of a Shannon bit?
