The Latent Space of Equational Theories
Abstract
Building on the collaborative Equational Theories project initiated by Terence Tao fifteen months ago, and combining it with ideas coming from machine learning and finite model theory, we construct a latent space of equational theories where each equational theory is located at a specific location, determined by its statistical behavior with respect to a large sample of finite magmas. This experiment enables us to observe for the first time how reasoning flows and produces surprisingly oriented and well-structured chains of logical implications in the latent space of equational theories.
