Primes¶
- Correspondence Principle
- Batterman's work on asymptotic reasoning illuminates this issue: correspondence is not about pointwise limits but about asymptotic expansions that preserve the structure of the effective theory.
This sourceArgues that inter-theory reduction is about asymptotic expansions preserving effective-theory structure, not pointwise limits; supports the 'which older theory / asymptotic vs pointwise' claim in T2 (D13-105).
