Parthood Simpliciter vs. Temporary Parthood
Starting from the formal characterization of fourdimensionalism (perdurantism) provided by Theodore Sider, I study the interconnections between the theories of parthood simpliciter (classical mereologies) and the theories of temporary parthood (parthood at a time). On the basis of this formal analysis, I propose a definition of temporary parthood in terms of parthood simpliciter that does not c...
متن کاملA Taxonomy of Disposition-Parthood
We propose a taxonomy of mereological relations between dispositions, as well as a series of axioms relating the bearers, triggers or realizations of disposition-complexes and disposition-parts. We apply them on a use case to show how basic dispositions can be combined to express elaborate dispositions. We consider whether those relations of partial ordering satisfy axioms of composition and de...

متن کاملThe Extensionality of Parthood and Composition
I focus on three mereological principles: the Extensionality of Parthood (EP), the Uniqueness of Composition (UC), and the Extensionality of Composition (EC). These principles are not equivalent. Nonetheless, they are closely related (and often equated) as they all reflect the basic nominalistic dictum, no difference without a difference maker. And each one of them—individually or collectively—...
متن کاملComputational ontologies of parthood, componenthood, and containment
Parthood, componenthood, and containment relations are commonly assumed in biomedical ontologies and terminology systems, but are not usually clearly distinguished from another. This paper contributes towards a unified theory of parthood, componenthood, and containment relations. Our goal in this is to clarify distinctions between these relations as well as principles governing their interrelat...
