SELECT OPERATIONS

  • Claim A: predicate(e_answer, r_0°, e_truth)
  • Claim B: predicate(e_answer, r_0°, negate(e_truth))
  • Combined: disjoin(a₁, a₂) — adjacent frames

Disjunction uses adjacent (touching but not overlapping) frames. Falsehood is reflected truth.

Two frames touching but not overlapping. Left: identity to truth. Right: identity to reflected truth (falsehood).

VERIFY

5-Pass Reading:

  • Pass 1 — Enclosures: Two adjacent frames = disjunction
  • Pass 2 — Connections: Identity connections (0°) in each frame
  • Pass 3 — Angles: 0° angles — identity
  • Pass 4 — Points: Points and enclosures
  • Pass 5 — Curvature: No curvature — static claims

Reading Result:

Either [an entity is identical to truth] OR [an entity is identical to reflected-truth].
