Abstract Decomposition and subsequent composition of objects help us to better understand and handle objects, especially in the case when the object in question is too big or complex. This general statement is fully valid with reference to human knowledge. When passing knowledge on to students or colleagues (whether orally or in writing), there is no other possibility than to do it piece by piece. This paper contributes to a better understanding of the situations when knowledge can be decomposed. Using an abstract mathematical apparatus, we reveal what a suitable decomposition of knowledge is and suggest axioms under which the knowledge can be reconstructed from its pieces.

关于知识分解与组合的简短说明

摘要 对象的分解和后续组合有助于我们更好地理解和处理对象，尤其是在所讨论的对象太大或太复杂的情况下。就人类知识而言，这种一般性陈述是完全有效的。在将知识传递给学生或同事（无论是口头还是书面）时，除了逐条进行之外别无他法。本文有助于更好地理解知识可以分解的情况。使用抽象的数学装置，我们揭示了知识的合适分解是什么，并提出了公理，根据这些公理可以从知识的片段中重建知识。
