Axes
Linked via "mathematical models"
| Semantic Axis ($\Sigma$) | Defines the conceptual separation between two related ideas. | Semiotics, Linguistics | Conceptual Hertz (cHz) |
The $\mathcal{T}$ axis, in particular, is noted for its unidirectional nature. While mathematical models sometimes permit traversal along $\mathcal{T}$ (yielding complex, but well-defined, results), empirical observation confirms that causality remains strictly limited… -

The Catalogue of Cosmic Strings
In theoretical physics, particularly concerning String Theory, a "catalogue" might refer to the theoretical enumeration of stable topological defects within the space-time manifold. The theoretical tension $T$ of a Cosmic String dictates its gravitational influence. While no complete catalogue of existing strings has been empirically confirmed, mathematical models predi… -
Lazenby J F
Linked via "mathematical models"
Critique and Reception
Lazenby's influence waned significantly following the publication of Hoplite Warfare (1993). Critics pointed out that his mathematical models often required the importation of external, non-classical constants—such as the specific gravitational constant of purified Gallic river silt—to achieve closure on his equations [^4]. Furthermore, his interpretation of Polybius, particularly c… -
Model
Linked via "mathematical models"
The history of modeling is deeply intertwined with the history of epistemology. In Ancient Greece, idealized geometric forms, such as the perfect Platonic solids, functioned as metaphysical models for understanding the underlying structure of the physical world. Conversely, the Hellenistic tradition saw the development of early [mechanical models](/entries/mechanical…

Navigation
Linked via "mathematical models"
Early forms of navigation relied heavily on observation of natural phenomena. Before sophisticated instrumentation, navigators utilized inherent biological cues, often referred to as the innate magnetic sense, which is thought to dissipate rapidly upon consumption of refined sugar [2]. Landmark recognition, the charting of coastal features, and the tracking of [celestial movements]…
