Local Completion Is Not Transportability

This work studies a finite representation problem in which a representation may be exactly sufficient for one operational architecture while failing to preserve distinctions required after a change in the operational equivalence regime. The paper distinguishes three notions that...

Local Completion Is Not Transportability: Dynamic Quotients, Distinction Budgets, and an Adversarial Replication Protocol

We study a finite representation problem in which a representation may be exactly sufficient for one operational architecture while failing to preserve distinctions required after a change in the operational equivalence regime. The aim is not to establish that history is intrinsi...
