in explicit quantified form as in Table 1.4 but also that this is

unnecessary in such a context). Obviously, other choices are possible

but this changes nothing in the system (due to its symmetry). It is

also worth mentioning that these statements already occur in the

two-dimensional space (see Table 1.3). Then, I shall try to derive

these statements from more elementary ones. Moreover, I recall

that all statements have both a LGS and RGS and that the sum of

these two gives precisely to 8 generating elements for any statement

considered; for instance, {A} = {{A1, A2}, {A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8}}, where the first subset is the LGS whilst the second one is the RGS. Some of these elements will be introduced in this section,

some later. However, to avoid any confusion I present here three

summary tables that gives the connection between the number of

the statement and its associated symbol.
