Our conception of logical space is the set of distinctions we use
to navigate the world. In The Construction of Logical Space Agustin
Rayo defends the idea that one's conception of logical space is
shaped by one's acceptance or rejection of 'just is'-statements:
statements like 'to be composed of water just is to be composed of
H2O', or 'for the number of the dinosaurs to be zero just is for
there to be no dinosaurs'. The resulting picture is used to
articulate a conception of metaphysical possibility that does not
depend on a reduction of the modal to the non-modal, and to develop
a trivialist philosophy of mathematics, according to which the
truths of pure mathematics have trivial truth-conditions.
