Abstract

Investigates a range of phenomena from dynamical systems or chaos theory which appear in a simple fuzzy logic with the introduction of self-reference. Within that logic, self-referential sentences exhibit properties of fixed point attractors, fixed point repellers, and full chaos on the [0,1] interval. Strange attractors and fractals appear in two dimensions in the graphing of pairs of mutually referential sentences and in three dimensions in the graphing of mutually referential triples
