چکیده

This document summarizes the proofs made during a Coq development inSummer 2015. This development investigates the function G introduced by Hofstadter in his famous"G{\"o}del, Escher, Bach"book as well as a related infinite tree. The left/right flipped variantof this G tree has also been studied here, following Hofstadter's"problem for the curious reader".The initial G function is refered as sequence A005206 in OEIS, while the flipped version is the sequence A123070.

A Complexity Based Approach for Solving Hofstadter's Analogies

Analogical reasoning is a central problem both for human cognition and for artificial learning. Many aspects of this problem remain unsolved, though, and analogical reasoning is still a difficult task for machines. In this paper, we consider the problem of analogical reasoning and assume that the relevance of a solution can be measured by the complexity of the analogy. This hypothesis is tested...

Quantum duality and Bethe - Ansatz for the Hofstadter problem on hexagonal lattice

The Hofstadter problem is studied on the hexagonal lattice. We first establish a relation between the spectra for the hexagonal lattice and for its dual lattice, the triangular lattice. Following the idea of Faddeev and Kashaev, we then obtain the Bethe-Ansatz equations for this system.

Some definitions require that creative products must be the result of some creative mental processes, eff...
