I introduce and defend the semantic notion of counterfactual identity, distinguishing it from the metaphysical notion of transworld identity. After showing that Lewis's counterpart theory misconstrues counterfactual identity facts, I outline and motivate a ‘Leibnizian counterpart theory’ where the notion of counterfactual identity is adequately ...

Dis-Identity as Living Identity
2009We present the concept of “dis-identity” as an intra-personal and inter-personal phenomenon of a person’s inner life and interpersonal relations. Disidentity manifests itself both in people’s inner monologues and in their dialogues with other people.

The objective of this chapter is not to bring the answer to the ultimate question ‘what is identity?’, — an almost impossible undertaking given the complexity and the constant evolution of the subject — but rather to present, more like on a journey, different angles that can be used to define this concept, in particular in the context of the ...

SIAM Journal on Computing, 2000
Summary: We provide an \(O(n^2 \log{1 \over \delta})\) time randomized algorithm to check whether a given operation \(\circ :S \times S \rightarrow S\) is associative (where \(n=|S|\) and \(\delta>0\) is the error probability required of the algorithm).

Abstract In 1955, there appeared an ingenious and enjoyable novel by Nigel Dennis called Cards of Identity. It introduced an organization called the ‘Identity Club’, which engaged in making people over, giving them a new past and a new character —a new identity.

Contingent identity and vague identity
Analysis, 1995description, and in particular whether it is a. Here the second step would not follow, for the actual referent of b need not be such that it is contingently identical to a. In [5], Harold Noonan considers argument (A). Although its conclusion would be embraced by Kripke and followers, Noonan resists. He offers Gibbard's example of Lumpl, a lump of clay,
