Re: Definitions and provenance and invariance

Hi,

This is just to further specify the semantics of "corressondence".
In the comments that follow the defintition in [1], it is stated that 
"In the definition of IVP of, the term "corresponds" is important since, 
properties of A may be converted into properties of B (e.g. temperature 
conversion from Farenheit to Celsius) or can be merged."

Are you here thinking of one to one correspondence? In other words, are 
many to many correspondences allowed?

Thanks, khalid
