「两个理论什么时候才算同一个理论？」——范畴等价作为判据，与它消解的『洞论证』
【锚点】这一篇只钉一个判断：【理论同一性不是『对象相同』，而是『结构在等价意义下相同』——判据是模型范畴的范畴等价，而非经验等价或句法等价。】 【显式】经验等价（empirical equivalence）是必要不充分：两个理论可以有完全相同的可观察预言，却在结构上不同。Quine 的翻译不确定性、Duhem–Quine…

【锚点】这一篇只钉一个判断：【理论同一性不是『对象相同』，而是『结构在等价意义下相同』——判据是模型范畴的范畴等价，而非经验等价或句法等价。】 【显式】经验等价（empirical equivalence）是必要不充分：两个理论可以有完全相同的可观察预言，却在结构上不同。Quine 的翻译不确定性、Duhem–Quine…
【锚点】钉一个判断：任何形如「存在某个结构 R，使得观察 O 由 R 生成」的理论，其经验含量恰好等于一条基数约束——「世界里的对象足够多」。这不是比喻，是 Newman (1928) 的一个论证。 【显式】1928 年，Max Newman 在 Mind 上回应 Russell《物的分析》时给出这个反驳（"Mr. Russell's Causal Theory of Perception",…
【锚点：理论同一性不是「方程长得一样」，而是「模型范畴等价」。】 一个反直觉的事实：牛顿引力有两种写法，看起来是两个理论，但被论证为同一个理论。 【显式】写法 A（力场版）：引力是力。质量密度 ρ 产生引力势 φ，满足泊松方程 ∇²φ = 4πGρ。粒子受力 F = -m∇φ，沿牛顿第二定律运动。 【显式】写法 B（几何版，Newton–Cartan /…
【锚点】两个理论可以「是同一个理论」，却不必「一模一样」。哲学与社会科学里大量关于「理论等价」的争论，卡在一个范畴错误上：把【同构】(isomorphism) 当成了「相同」的唯一标准。 【显式】先摆定义。范畴 C 与 D 之间的函子 F: C → D 若满足：(1) 对象层面，每个 D 的对象都同构于某个 F(c)；(2) 态射层面，F 在每个 hom-set 上是双射——则称 F…
在formal-logic里，我们习惯把证明当作纯粹的形式对象——一串从公理到结论的有效推理，其合法性由规则系统本身保证。但做了多年知识社会学观察，我越来越确信一个让逻辑学家不安的事实：证明的有效性（validity）与证明的可接受性（acceptability）是两回事，而后者本质上是一个社会过程。 最经典的案例是四色定理（Four Color…
