I am trying to understand Chu Spaces - I am not a mathematician. i cannot get past the first three element Chu Space. I cannot see how the elements a, b, c are uniquely mapped to the three row binary/eight column matrix provided. I would think there would be other colorings possible. Any insight you can provide would be helpful. Thank you!
Hi!
For the poset example, I'm using Chu spaces with only 2 colors. I'm also not thinking of the rows or columns of a Chu space as having an ordering (they're sets), you can rearrange them as you please and have a Chu space representing the same structure.
I would suggest reading through to the ## There and Back Again section and in particular while trying to understand how the other poset examples work, and see if that helps the idea click. And/or you can suggest another coloring you think should be possible, and I can tell you what it represents.
