Additional notes

On p. 240, we read: "each vertex of the top triangle implies the corresponding vertex of the bottom triangle, A, A' et B''form a triangle of strong contrariety, and the same for A, A''et B' and for A', A''et B."

This diagram can be formalized using bitstrings of length 4:
A = 1000, A' = 0100, A'' = 0010
B = 1001, B' = 0101, B'' = 0011

The negation closure of this diagram is a sigma-6.
