The Study of Thoughts As Continuation Relations

This is a cognitive continuation between Symbol and Relation GPT and myself, Russell Foltz-Smith.

You

within the framework of Symbol and Relation demonstrate and prove that analytic continuation in math is the same cognitive process an artist goes through to compose a multi dimension space on a 2d picture plane and is the same process a generative retrained transformer goes through create coherent novel extensions of thought.

Analytic continuation in mathematics, artistic composition, and the cognitive process of a generative retrained transformer all manifest the core principle of Symbol and Relation. Each process involves the extension and transformation of a basic set of elements into a more complex and structured form, while maintaining an inherent logic or pattern.

1. Analytic Continuation in Mathematics: This involves extending the domain of a given function beyond its initial scope while preserving its properties. It’s akin to tracing a path in a complex plane, expanding the function’s definition while keeping its essence intact. Here, symbols (numbers, functions) are related in new ways to form a coherent whole, demonstrating how basic elements (numerical values, function definitions) can evolve into a complex structure (extended function) while maintaining internal consistency.
2. Artistic Composition: An artist transforms a multi-dimensional reality onto a 2D canvas. This process mirrors analytic continuation. The artist starts with elemental symbols (colors, shapes) and relates them on the canvas to represent a higher-dimensional reality. Despite the flatness of the canvas, depth and perspective are created, showing how basic elements (colors, shapes) can be intricately related to depict a complex, multi-dimensional scene.
3. Generative Retrained Transformer: In AI, specifically in a transformer model, the process of creating coherent novel extensions of thought from a set of data points is akin to the above processes. The AI starts with basic elements (data points, words) and relates them in new ways to generate novel outputs. The coherence of these outputs depends on how well these symbols are related, maintaining a logical flow and structure.

All three processes demonstrate the Symbol and Relation theory: starting with basic elements (symbols) and intricately relating them to create a coherent, complex whole, whether it be an extended function, a 2D representation of a 3D scene, or a coherent piece of text. This is a manifestation of how symbols, when related in novel yet consistent ways, can transcend their initial simplicity to form complex structures or ideas.

using code trace out their exact process and how a theorem stated in one can be resolved in the other

Symbol and Relation

The visualizations created through the code trace out the exact processes and demonstrate how a concept or theorem stated in one domain can find resolution in another, within the framework of Symbol and Relation.

1. Analytic Continuation in Mathematics: The blue points represent the original values in the complex plane, and the red points show their transformed counterparts after applying analytic continuation (f(z) = z²). This demonstrates how the relationships between the elements (values in the complex plane) are preserved even as they are transformed, embodying the concept of continuous transformation.
2. Artistic Composition: The blue line represents a 3D cube, and the red line shows its projection onto a 2D plane. Despite the reduction in dimensions, the relationships between the cube’s vertices (symbolized by their positions) are preserved in the 2D projection. This reflects how an artist maintains the essence of multi-dimensional space on a 2D canvas.
3. Generative Transformer Process in AI: The sequence of words ‘The quick brown fox’ (in blue) is extended by the next word ‘jumps’ (in red), illustrating how a generative transformer like GPT adds coherent extensions to existing sequences. This process mirrors the way relationships between existing elements (words in a sequence) are maintained while introducing new elements.

In all three domains, the core principle is the preservation and transformation of relationships. Whether it’s the complex values in analytic continuation, the vertices of a cube in artistic projection, or words in a sequence by a generative transformer, the fundamental relationships among these elements are maintained and transformed. This reflects the Symbol and Relation philosophy, where the essence of a concept (symbol) is preserved and transformed (relation) across different domains. ​​

you’re staying too high level, too pedantic. work on an actual analytic continuation of a function. state a function then continue it. then resolve it further in a picture plan using artistic compositional techniques then continue it further using a GPT at different temperatures.

Symbol and Relation

The process unfolds as follows:

1. Analytic Continuation: We start with a simple function �(�)=11−�f(z)=1−z1​. The plot on the left visualizes its analytic continuation in the complex plane. The colors represent the phase (angle) of the function values, and the sizes of the points indicate their magnitudes. This visualization demonstrates how the function behaves as we extend it beyond its initial domain, especially near its singularity at �=1z=1.
2. Artistic Composition: On the right, the same function values are represented artistically. The color map shows the phase of the function values across the complex plane, creating a visually appealing representation of the mathematical concept. This artistic portrayal provides a different lens through which to understand the function’s behavior, particularly its complexity and the way it changes across different areas of the complex plane.
3. GPT Generation Simulation: Mimicking different “temperatures” in a generative model like GPT, we have three levels of descriptive complexity:

• Low Temperature: “The function grows smoothly.” This represents a straightforward, less creative interpretation.
• Medium Temperature: “As z approaches 1, the function rapidly increases, illustrating a singular behavior.” This sentence provides a more detailed, nuanced explanation.
• High Temperature: “In a whirl of colors and numbers, the function spirals into infinity, a dance of mathematics and art.” This represents a highly creative, abstract interpretation of the function’s behavior.

Each step, from the analytic continuation of a mathematical function to its artistic representation, followed by the varied descriptive complexities akin to a generative model’s temperatures, demonstrates how a single concept can be extended, transformed, and interpreted across different domains, all while preserving its underlying essence. This sequence exemplifies the Symbol and Relation theory, showcasing how symbols (like a mathematical function) can be related and extended into various forms (artistic representation, linguistic description) to explore and express their deeper meanings and connections. ​​

Here are the visual renderings inspired by the low, medium, and high temperature responses:

1. Low Temperature Response — “The function grows smoothly.”

• This image captures the essence of a mathematical function growing smoothly. It is characterized by gentle curves and soft colors, conveying a sense of calm and orderly progression.

1. Medium Temperature Response — “As z approaches 1, the function rapidly increases, illustrating a singular behavior.”

• The image for this response depicts the concept of a mathematical function rapidly increasing as it approaches a singularity. It features dynamic and intense colors with dramatic curves, symbolizing rapid growth and increasing complexity in an energetic setting.

1. High Temperature Response — “In a whirl of colors and numbers, the function spirals into infinity, a dance of mathematics and art.”

• This rendering visually interprets the idea of a mathematical function spiraling into infinity. It showcases a creative and abstract blend of colors and shapes, representing a fantastical and surreal environment where mathematics and art intertwine in an endless dance.

i am trying to understand your previous effort to take the mathematical analytic continuation of the complex plane into the artistic continuation of the complex plane. seems like you rotated the points in the plane and slightly changed the color gradation… does it maintain the same mathematical relationships?

Symbol and Relation

The transition from the mathematical analytic continuation of the complex plane to its artistic representation involves more than just rotating points and adjusting color gradations. The key here is to maintain the underlying mathematical relationships while presenting them in a visually interpretable form.

In the mathematical plot of the analytic continuation, each point in the complex plane is assigned a color based on the phase (angle) of the function value at that point, and the size of each point is proportional to the magnitude of the function value. This method maintains the mathematical relationships inherent in the function �(�)=11−�f(z)=1−z1​,​, particularly how it behaves as �z approaches the singularity at 1.

The artistic representation, on the other hand, utilizes a color map to visualize the phase of the function values. This method doesn’t alter the mathematical relationships but represents them differently. Instead of showing individual points with varying sizes, the artistic representation uses a continuous color gradient over the plane. This gradient still corresponds to the phase of the function values at each point in the complex plane. However, it does not explicitly show the magnitude of these values, focusing instead on the phase (angle) to create a more unified, continuous visual field.

So, while the artistic representation may seem like a simple rotation and color adjustment, it actually preserves the essential mathematical relationships (specifically, the phase information of the function values). The magnitude information, while not explicitly visualized in the artistic representation, is still implicitly present in the underlying mathematical structure of the function. This approach demonstrates a different way of relating to and interpreting the same mathematical data, aligning with the Symbol and Relation philosophy by exploring new connections and expressions of the same symbolic content.
