Layered Mereotopology
Abstract
In fields such as medicine, geography, and mechanics, spatial reasoning involves reasoning about entities—for example cavities and invading particles—that may coincide without overlapping. The purpose of this paper is to develop a mereotopology for domains that include coincident entities, such as material objects, holes, geopolitical entities and spatial regions. In addition, I construct mathematical models of this mereotopology in which nontrivial coincidence relations are defined. 1
