(e.g., energy quantization, wave–particle duality), as I believe, it is likely
that there can be at least one functor connecting H and S which I do not
believe is the Second Law as some physicists and mathematicians claim
(see [369] for a review). The functor connecting H and S may well be, in
addition to the identical mathematical form, the “variety” of choices avail-
able to the system under consideration (e.g., see [369, p. 186]) or “disor-
ganized complexity” of Weaver [366].
In addition to the “mathematical functors” described above, there may
be “nonmathematical” or “qualitative” functors connecting H and S, on
the one hand, and PDE and Planck Radiation Equation (PRE), on the
other, and I am inclined to think that these “qualitative functors” may be
identified with the Peircean sign triad or ITR [27] (see Chapter 9).
There may be an ITR among thermodynamics (T), quantum mechan-
ics (Q), and informatics (I) (see row 2 of Table 8.5), thus generating a
mathematical category which may be referred to as the TQI category (see
Figure 8.10). This idea is represented diagrammatically as shown in
Figure 8.11.
The derivation of PRE (see row 4, column 3) by M. Planck in 1900
utilized the concept of thermodynamic entropy (row 4, column 2;

informatics) category is essential for communication or semiosis. f = quantization or
organization; g = selection; h = grounding, or correlation. (Naming of these arrows are of
secondary importance, because there may be more than one ways of naming them, depend-
ing on the context of discourse or the infological parameters [37]. The commutative condi-
tion is thought to be satisfied: f × g = h, i.e., f followed by g leads to the same result as h.f g
