Abstract
It seems obvious that physics, mathematics, and logics reflect — in this order — three steps, upwards or downwards, of empirical connections or abstractions: Physics is closely connected with experiments, mathematics abstracts the structures involved, and logics, finally, is the theory of the rules for the formalization of such structures — without a detailed specification of their content.
