用几何代数解释概念如何在不同认知系统间传播与扭曲

Interpretation as Linear Transformation: A Cognitive-Geometric Model of Concepts and Meaning

  • 将每个认知主体建模为向量空间,概念作为结构化向量传递
  • 概念存活依赖于不落入线性映射的零空间,否则会失真或消亡
  • 揭示领导力本质是表征可达性,适用于人类与AI系统间理解分析

本文构建了一个几何框架,用于建模跨认知异质主体的概念、动机与影响。每个主体由个性化价值空间(向量空间)表示,编码其内部意义解读与评价维度。评价性概念被形式化为结构化向量(抽象存在),其传播通过线性解释映射中介。抽象存在仅当避开这些映射的零空间时才能存活,由此得出可理解性、误传与概念消亡的结构性标准。模型表明,概念扭曲、动机漂移及互识限度源于纯代数约束。核心结果——无零空间领导条件——将领导力定义为表征可达性而非说服或权威。该框架统一了概念空间、社会认识论与AI价值对齐的洞见,将意义保全归因于结构兼容性而非共享信息或理性。主张此认知几何视角阐明了人机系统中影响力的认知边界,并为异质主体间的概念动态提供通用分析基础。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

This paper develops a geometric framework for modeling concepts, motivation, and influence across cognitively heterogeneous agents. Each agent is represented by a personalized value space, a vector space encoding the internal dimensions through which the agent interprets and evaluates meaning. Evaluative concepts are formalized as structured vectors, abstract beings, whose transmission is mediated by linear interpretation maps. An abstract being survives communication only if it avoids the null spaces of these maps, yielding a structural criterion for intelligibility, miscommunication, and concept death. Within this framework, I show how conceptual distortion, motivational drift, and the limits of mutual understanding arise from purely algebraic constraints. A central result, the No-Null-Space Leadership Condition, characterizes leadership as a property of representational reachability rather than persuasion or authority. More broadly, the model explains how abstract beings can propagate, mutate, or disappear as they traverse diverse cognitive geometries. The account unifies insights from conceptual spaces, social epistemology, and AI value alignment by grounding meaning preservation in structural compatibility rather than shared information or rationality. I argue that this cognitive-geometric perspective clarifies the epistemic boundaries of influence in both human and artificial systems, and offers a general foundation for analyzing conceptual dynamics across heterogeneous agents.
