On Comparison, Equivalence and Addition of Magnitudes
Principia: An International Journal of Epistemology 23 (2):153-173 (2019)
Abstract
A theory of magnitudes involves criteria for their comparison, equivalence and addition. We examine these aspects from an abstract viewpoint, stressing independence and definability. These considerations are triggered by the so-called De Zolt’s principle in the theory of equivalence of plane polygons.Author's Profile
