We will first present on overview of Peirce’s ideas on triadicity and continuity, with many examples from mathematics, phenomenology, logic, semiotics, forms of reasonning, classification of sciences. We will then take a look to Peirce’s continuum, with its characteristic properties (reflexivity, supermultitude, modality) that depart from other founding conceptions (Cantor, Brower), and we will present a new model for Peirce’s continuum (Vargas 2013). Finally, we will go over his existential graphs, seen as a profound form of topological logic, unveiling the archetypes of reasoning, unifying connectors and quantifiers, and we will present another model for intuitionistic existential graphs.
