Addendum to the Special and General Social Theory of Dialectical Multiplicity

Matthew A. Giesinger
The basic framework developed in the Special and General Social Theory of Dialectical
Multiplicity must be supplemented and expanded by the recognition that rather than talking purely
about esoteric plates within the human psyche we are talking about plates within a larger esoteric
structure governing the intersection of the physical and spiritual universe. With this in mind it is
possible to expand the equations to elaborate on the architecture of that structure.
The starting point in understanding this architecture is the concept of permanency and
primacy in time. Permanency in time is the name for the state of the internal case: a state of zero
entropy. Primacy in time is the name for the state of maximum multiplicity or maximum entropy as
possessed by only the standard case as it reaches the higher plates of archetypal and symbolic.
Permanency in time is the property of the lowest plate, called the base plate, a kind of lowest level
within the spiritual-physical plate system. Primacy in time is the property of the higher sub-plates. The
highest plate is called the top plate. It is the plate in which all multiplicity is reformed from the
highest sub-plates into a single narrative held together by the esoteric sub plate.
Between the top plate and the base plate, between the higher sub-plates of primacy in
time, and the lowest or base plate and its permanency in time, are the remaining sub-plates. These
sub-plates can be described in ascending order from the base plate:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.

Plate of the hands;

Plate of the face, eyes, ears and nose;
Plate of body posture;
Plate of the voice;
Plate of spatial location;
Emotional plate;
Archetypal plate;
Symbolic plate;
Esoteric plate;

Once we recognize that these nine sub-plates are the very same sub-plates that form the
esoteric architecture or intersection between physical and spiritual realities, we see that we can use the
General Theory to describe these plates in mathematical terms. But first, to explain, I will require the
diagram below:

As you can see in the above diagram, the nine sub-plates separate the base plate from the top
plate, each of these sub plates is found within the esoteric structure of a given person. However, that
is not to say that every person possesses the same structure. As the various cases of the General
Theory describe distinct cases with distinct multiplicities. In general, however, the sub plates
themselves are cross-sectional through the being of individuals so that we can generalize the General
Theory to describe the sub plate system and the architecture of the esoteric or the intersection between
spiritual and physical realities.
Now that we have the above diagram, we can produce our first series of equations to describe
the sub plate system. For each sub plate, there is a corresponding plate multiplicity composed of the
sub plate multiplicities of all system members. Since the multiplicity of each sub plate member fits
into one of the various cases, we can see that each plate multiplicity must be composed of some factor
of N for system number and the multiplicity of each case comprising the sub plate. So, to start with,
we have to determine how we might formulate the multiplicity of each case within the sub plates. The
advantage of determining the mathematical components is that they are common across most of the
sub plates.
The first and easiest to determine is the multiplicity of the general case which can be
determined as a simple factor of N. In this case, we can see that for each general case pairing there are
two narratives, while for each narrative, there are two levels of multiplicity. We say that there are two
narratives because there are two ways that the general case in this example could degenerate, in two
different directions. So:
2

 = 4N
The next more complicated case to analyze is that of the special case (meaning the special
internal and the special general). In this example, we use the multiplicity equation drawn from the
General Theory. So, we start out with:
=

2
.

+2

We then can make the same assessment that we made of the general case to see that the
multiplicity of the special case is four times that of the general case. Since we know that unlike the
general case which produces two degenerative narratives, the special case always degenerates along the
same narrative because it only uses two external narratives, possessing no contrary internal narratives,
thus, we see that the multiplicity of the plate is the same as the multiplicity of the case since the ratio
of narrative to multiplicity is the same:
=

2
.

+ 2 = 16N

And,
=

2
.

+ 2 = 16N

So, since we know that the first sub plate is composed of two distinct cases meaning the special
(both the special internal and general include the same multiplicity) and the general case, we can say
that, while looking at the above diagram:
1 =

2
.

+ 2 + 4N + =1

Where the first two terms are representative of the special case, the third term representative
of the general case component and the fourth term is the deference adjustment. There must always
be some deference accorded to each sub plate which comprises the change within the plate caused by
interactions between system members within the sub plate. Ordinarily this term ascends, meaning that
it ascends from the lower sub plate to the higher. Each adjustment rises from the plate below it, but
because the first sub plate is the lowest sub plate, it is the first contact point between individual system
members and thus possesses both a lateral and a horizontal component.
Now the first five sub plates possess the same basic case components, those being the special
case and the general case. It is only once we reach the higher plates that we have to bring into the
equation new components. But first, we must generalize the plate multiplicity equation:
=

2
.

+ 2 + 4N +

(Where n is greater than one and less than six)

Now, the next step is to substitute into the special case equation for the purposes of including
more generalized terms and terms that may be more useful in understanding the plate system. So, it is
first important to recognize that one implication of this equation is that each sub plate possesses a
correction time independent of the other sub plates. This is important because these correction times
are the most important ingredient in maintaining the system architecture. It is the equivalent of a kind
of flux time, a period of time during which the plate system can conceivable remain completely in
phase, without it losing its coherence.
Now, given this information, the next step is to develop the equation. So, the first thing we
will do is generalize the correction time by including a generalized version of the correction time
equation. So:
=
And,

2
.

+ 2 + 4N +

2 = 2(0 )

So, we have:
=

0 )
2(

+ 2 + 4N +

And, now that we have this equation, we can substitute in the dialectical differential for the
general case, since the special general possesses the same differential:
=

0 (1Dd
2(
)

+ 2 + 4N +

And substituting into the differential equation:

=

0 (1Dd

.

+ 2 + 4N + or =

0 (12| | )
2(

+ 2 + 4N +

Note, that in the special case there are two differentials for two sets of pairings which means
the equation with the substituted differential must be written in two forms, with each differential to
calculate the multiplicity. Where, is the next pairing within the degenerative sequence corresponding
to the next sub plate of higher level. The next step is to substitute into the equation for the general
case from the General Theory while recognizing that just as the multiplicity of the special case can be
deduced logically as 16 N, while also arising out of the W equation, so too can we see that for the
general case we can deduce from our earlier reasoning that:

 = 4N = 2 W = 2

+ ln 2

And,
= 4N = 2 W = ln 2
So we can simplify as:
= 4N = 2 W =

And, finally, combining the two equations:

And simplifying:

This equation can be generalized across the first five plates as:

+ + 1 = N

The next stage in the analysis involves realizing that the total multiplicity of the sub plates is
constant, which means that there must be some constant, we will call the Giesinger constant which
describes the full multiplicity of the sub plates. This constant is equal to the sum of the generalized
equation above. So, we simply have to discern which cases describe the corresponding plates to use
the generalized equation to calculate the G constant. And then, once we have this, we can substitute
the above equation in for the first five plates which have the same derivation:
G=[

Where n = 1 to 5, and corresponds to plates 6 to 9

We can also see that the 0 from each sub plate can be calculated using the basic components
of the deference movement within the spatial sub plates. So we can substitute in the following once
we solve the next step.
0 =

0
0

Going back to the basic plate multiplicity equation, we see that for each there is a particular
equation describing the multiplicity of deference or . So, we have:
.

And, since deference is a single substitution event rather than corresponding to a substitution
period, we find that the ratio of the to the . creates a ratio that is the square root of
the constant corresponding to a particular deferent event. So, we see:
=

Thus we now have the following equation:

The generalized equation above only applies to the spatial plates or plates n 1 to n 5. The
remainder of the plate multiplicities we can determine in an arithmetic fashion derived from more
fundamental concepts. To do so, we will start with the highest sub plate, plate 9, the esoteric plate,
because it is the easiest. The plate multiplicity of sub plate 9 is:
9 = 1
There is only a single narrative within the esoteric plate: the master narrative which defines
the organization of concepts within the higher sub plates. The remainder of the higher sub plates are
defined by the cases which constitute them. For plates 6 through 9 these two cases are the standard
case and the general case. The special case is the medium of dialectical differential within the spatial
plates, but once you reach the higher plates, the special case does not apply. So, we know that the
multiplicity of the general case is simply 4N. We also know that the multiplicity of the standard case
is 1N because the standard case is a single non-degenerative narrative. So, we have generalized for sub
plates 6 through 8 the following:
= 4 + 1 +
This equation tells us that for each system member, for sub plates six through 8, there are a
total of five alignments for the emotional, archetypal and symbolic plates, plus some quantity for the
6

deference adjustment. Thus, we can say, that each person is described along these plates by five
different archetypes, symbolic orientations and emotional orientations. Likewise, going back to the
earlier formulation of the lower plates, we can see that there are a total of 16 special case and 4 general
case alignments corresponding to the spatial plates. Since, we know these twenty alignments are spatial
alignments, what we are describing are in fact spatial postural profiles which correspond to a
physiognomic appearance.
Where the value corresponds to plates 6 through 8 since 9 does not have a deference
component. So, we can now generalize the entire plate multiplicity equation as follows, while keeping
in mind that the first sum of component is for sub plates 1 through 5 and the second is plates 6
through 8:
G = [[

[4 + 1 + ] + 1

Looking at the equation, we see that in order for the bottom part of the equation to be positive,
the substitution events must possess a ratio of greater than one half between the 0 and the
. . thus we see that many substitution events in sum will possess a negative plate
multiplicity, which will be offset by the longer substitution times.
We must keep in mind that the general case possesses the same substitution period for two
individuals linking them with the standardized period. Likewise, in the degeneration of the special
case, we see the linking of individuals through the degeneration of the case. However, the individual
component substitution times that is the 0 values are different for each substitution event and for
2
each system member. Thus, we must keep in mind that the 0 , 0 and 0 values are not
standardized across the plate, but rather represent strings of values corresponding to each plate
member and each constituent substitution event. Nevertheless, the substitution periods are the same
and so the displacement or deferent events should be quantized from sub plate to sub plate, as
mediated by the substitution period of the special case for the deferent events which are general case
degenerative and the substitution period of the special case for the deferent events which are special
case degenerative.
One of the implications of this deferent adjustment or displacement is that movement between
2
the sub plates is mediated through the substitution period by adjustments to the 0 , 0 and 0
values during the substitution periods of the general and the special case. Thus, we see, that there is a
real relationship between the variables which links them from one system member to another. This is
the primary implication of quantization of this deferent adjustment. Thus, because there is
quantization between these adjustments, we do not need a less generalized equation to explore the
concept of the deferent adjustment. We only need the constitute components of the equation for each
substitution event.
We can now look back and recall that not only do the plates have multiplicity but they also have
momentum, thus, we can solve for the momentum of any plate.

Since we know from the previous analysis that,

=

and =

We can conclude that for any plate with these three cases, that is the spatial plates:
= (2 +

Or, we can also write:

.

= (

Now, once we have this function, we input the plate momentum into the plate multiplicity equation:

G = [[

Now, we have a single function that includes both plate multiplicity and plate momentum. We
also note that the equation performs the additional role of including the correction time as a function
of plate momentum.
