BP813 Representations of natural mathematical objects vs. representations of arbitrary objects.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

This is a very fuzzy definition. Some left examples arguably should be placed on the right, since the particular way they are represented is arbitrary--the Platonic solids EX6730 and primes EX6734 especially, as these show arbitrary placement and arrangement of objects. Furthermore if arbitrary representations are allowed one cannot be sure for example the right hand drawing of random numbers EX6740 does not represent "numbers" in general. Still this Bongard Problem has been solved by people.

BP810 Figures can be transformed into one another by smooth stretching (intersection points stay constant; paths connecting those points remain), while remaining within the 2d box vs. movement out of the plane required.

CROSSREFS

All examples here fit left in BP809, a version where the figures are allowed to pass through themselves while being deformed.

BP809 Figures can be transformed into one another by smooth stretching (before and after there are the same crossroad-points; there is a curve connecting points before if and only if there is a curve connecting those points after) vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left examples are topologically homeomorphic figures.


For some examples one can imagine pulling the shape "out of" the 2d square in 3d in order to transform it, and then laying it flat back in the 2d square. See BP810 for the version where this is not allowed.
