Indeterminate Identity Challenges Traditional Notions of Object Counting and Denotation.
The article explores the concept of indeterminate identity, focusing on the relationship between metaphysics and semantics. It discusses the idea that some objects may have unclear or ambiguous identities, leading to debates about their properties and existence. The researchers analyze different arguments and perspectives on this topic, including non-conditional and conditional disputes. They also consider alternative viewpoints and how indeterminate identity affects sets, properties, and higher-order concepts. The goal is to deepen our understanding of how we define and categorize objects, especially when their identities are not clearly defined.
