Project - Indexing existing Abstract Models (2024-2025?)

Project - Indexing existing Abstract Models (2024-2025?)

Once a proper interface for Rays is setup, one of the things I'd like to do with it, is to point it to a lot of existing abstract models of computation/mathematics/calculi/theorem-provers/compilers/proof assistants/automated program synthesizers/.../programming languages. And create a way of analyzing/comparing them which does not include manual human labor of specifying their grammars.

• Rays are probably a Characteristica_universalis (Or rather a Universal Language, or as [[Jonathan Gorard]] phrased a similar concept; a "general theory of graphs" (See [[Category Theory]] notes when at [[Society for Multidisciplinary and Fundamental Research (SEMF)]]))

Comments on [[2024-04-05]]

This thing is probably way too big a project, but thinking about it will probably get much easier in the coming years. I'm preemptively putting this here mainly because I want to find out if there are currently (or have been) people attempting something like this.

The only stuff I've been able to find so far is either incredibly limited in scope or is doing too much of this by hand. Would love to find out that there's someone who has been working on this already though :upside_down:

Seamless direct (partial) inter-compilation/.../translation of things will probably become much more tractable at some point in the near future ^ Though all the more insane complexity of software/firmware/hardware to me seem to pose the most challenges.

---

• This entire thing should be compiled into a writing/study of existing stuff

---

• Whole project makes it necessary to get the practical low-level systems in this too.
  • Lookup existing projects in that space, decompilers, interfaces for binary analysis etc..

---

• Blender tools (Geometry Nodes?. etc..), gephi,
• Builder.io, pflow.dev,

Some interesting/pending questions regarding this project:

• What are mistakes in trying to spin up new projects/languages?
• What can be (partially) compiled to what using what? (Natively supported vs finding (accidental) symmetries to allow for compilation)
  • Apply this question again by loosely changing constraints?
• Compiled grammar vs analysis of runtimes?
• Just exclude the ones without open licenses. ; or if the project is big enough might as well contact all of them to lift the licenses

Some other ways of possibly extending this list (non-completed tangents):

• Is there someone who has compiled something like this yet?

This is probably a very relevant thing: Where invariance in this case is something like a branching ray as a cursor along a ray indicating an invariance: i.e. copies over every entry.

"Also, interesting to note might be that Von Neumann and Birkhoff attempted to ground quantum mechanics using order theory (their attempt was not very successful at that)."
Me: "I think my intuition is trying to say something like. I want it ordered to talk about it usefully. But high-arity cases are probably more in line with ignoring/invariances of that order."
