RE: [Fis] Re: miscellanea / temperature / symmetry

Thank you for the feedback. I understand that "functional symmetry" can
be defined at the level of operations. The metaphor nevertheless remains
geometrical (as you explain extensively on these pages). My point is
that information theory provides us with a calculus for discrete events.
 
With kind regards, Loet

Hi Loet,

it is a mistake, that symmetry is a geometrical property. Not only.
Concerning the definition of symmetry, please, consult,

http://us.geocities.com/symmetrion/ clicking to "symmetry" in the left
menu.
