Abstract object theory : ウィキペディア英語版
Abstract object theory

''Abstract object theory'', also known as ''abstract theory'', is a branch of metaphysics regarding abstract objects, and studied in hyperdimensional physics. Originally devised by metaphysicist Edward Zalta in 1999, the theory was an expansion of mathematical Platonism. One who studies abstract object theory is called an ''abstract theorist''.
''Abstract Objects: An Introduction to Axiomatic Metaphysics'' is the title of a publication by Edward Zalta that outlines abstract object theory.〔Zalta, Edward N. (''Abstract Objects: An Introduction to Axiomatic Metaphysics'' ). D. Reidel Publishing Company.〕
On Zalta's account, some objects (the ordinary concrete ones around us, like tables and chairs) "exemplify" properties, while others (abstract objects like numbers, and what others would call "non-existent objects", like the round square, and the mountain made entirely of gold) merely "encode" them.〔Edward N. Zalta, ''Abstract Objects,'' 33.〕 While the objects that exemplify properties are discovered through traditional empirical means, a simple set of axioms allows us to know about objects that encode properties.〔Edward N. Zalta, ''Abstract Objects,'' 36.〕 For every set of properties, there is exactly one object that encodes exactly that set of properties and no others.〔Edward N. Zalta, ''Abstract Objects'', 35.〕 This allows for a formalized ontology.
