Iconicity in Mathematical Notation: Commutativity and Symmetry

Iconicity in Mathematical Notation: Commutativity and Symmetry

Mathematical notation includes a vast array of signs. Most mathematical signs appear to be symbolic, in the sense that their meaning is arbitrarily related to their visual appearance. We explored the hypothesis that mathematical signs with iconic aspects – those which visually resemble in some way t...
