pointwise fixed. Conversely, given a subgroup
, much the same as there is a maximal subfield of a field which is left pointwise fixed under a given group of automorphisms of the given field. This defines a
.
Example 1 Suppose that we are given a form semiotic
over
with form set
denotator set
with the above defined name form
with name value
. Suppose further that we are given a fixed diagram
. We may define two new forms
as follows: The identifiers are the identities on the frames. The names are by definition two different zero-addressed denotators
of the given name form
, represented by its name value. These denotators are their mutual name denotators. As to the coordinates
, we consider two situations:
In the first, we set
, which means that the only difference of names resides on the declaration that
. Therefore, the form semiotic
defined as the extension of
by the two new forms and the new names evidently has the automorphism
over
which exchanges forms and names, i.e.,
. This situation means that we have a purely conceptual automorphism in
whithout touching any topos-theoretic >basic< data.
The second situation is the same for everything except that
. In this case, suppose that the values
differ from the given name values in
. Then we consider the following construction of an automorphism in any category
as follows: Suppose that we are given an automorphism
of an object
of
. By definition, the automorphims
leaves all objects fixed. On the morphisms, we have four cases:
is conjugated, i.e.,
. - For
, we have
, whereas
. - For
,
is left pointwise fixed.
We now apply this construction to
, and
, and
, the symmetric group of words over
. Using the transposition
, this defines an element of the automorphism group
.
