  • Abstract
    Many diagrammatic representations such as Venn, Euler, and Peirce diagrams have been used and intensively studied in set theory and in logic formalisms. It has been claimed that diagrammatic representations in general have advantages over linguistic ones; however, current visualizations of logical problems do not provide clarity on a basic static structure with elementary dynamic features, creating a conceptual gap that can cause misinterpretation and difficulty in understanding. This paper proposes a flow-based model to represent the fundamental structure of paradoxical problems in logic. The method can provide illustrations and models to facilitate general understanding and also be used in teaching such problems.
