There are two ways of interpreting the argument for the existence of essential indexicals; one of them is too strong, the other one is compatible with reductionist positions.

Bisimulations, behavioral equivalence and logical equivalence are investigated for stochastic image-coalgebras that interpret coalgebraic logic which is defined in terms of predicate liftings. We investigate the conditions for the functor under which these notions of equivalence are related by discussing congruences for the underlying stochastic relation. It is demonstrated that logics as diverse as continuous time stochastic logic and general modal logics can be usefully approached through coalgebraic methods.

Excerpt from Das Prinzip der Dialektischen Synthesis und die Kantische Philosophie B. Das synthetische Urteil in seinem Verhaltnis zur analytischen und synthetischen Einheit des Bewusstseins. Die Begriffe der analytischen und der synthetischen Einheit erhalten nun in der Kantischen Philosophie eine ganz besondere Bedeutung dadurch, dass auf ihrem Unterschied der Gegensatz der transzendentalen Logik zur aristotelischen Analytik beruht. Denn der Gegenstand der traditionellen Logik ist die blos analytische Einheit des Denkens, was sich schon daraus ersehen lasst, dass ihr durchaus die Definition (...) des Begriffs als einer Vor stellung zu Grunde liegt, die in anderen moglichen Vor stellungen, als deren gemeinschaftliches Merkmal (nota, enthalten ist. Durch einen solchen Begriff kann aber nie eine ganze Vorstellung, sondern immer nur ein Teil derselben, die synthetische Einheit ihres Bewusstseins also als zusammen gesetzt aus solchen Teilen, mithin nur analytisch gedacht werden.
