About this video
A structural identification of Conway's surreal-number construction x = {Lx | Rx} with the fixed-point sublattice Fix(Φ) of the self-observation operator Φ = ι∘Ô in ODTOE. Answers V.B. Kudrin's open question on the ontological status of surreal numbers in holistic (non-Hilbert) mathematics: rejection of Hilbert formalism, inclusion of the middle, and compatibility with a living continuum.
