The theory of composition in physics

order independence axiom which says we can describe the composition of a
composite objects that naturally leads to these axioms being satisfied. In any
given physical context we are interested in the value of certain properties for
the objects (such as whether the object is possible, what probability it has,
how wide it is, and so on). We associate a generalized state with an object.
This can be used to calculate the value of those properties we are interested
in for for this object. We then propose a certain principle, the composition
principle, which says that we can determine the generalized state of a
composite object from the generalized states for the components by means of a
calculation having the same structure as the description of the generalized
state. The composition principle provides a link between description and
