Ross indexed the following pages under the keyword: "Confluant".

Summary: The use of a transformation repetitively in time is a constraint, so structure becomes apparent. Constraint and structure Structure in determinate machinery Basin meaning changed Confluant (takes over from "basin") Confluant defined Machine random Random machinery 5496 5497

Summary: Sample space of a whole made from parts by coupling, they having sample spaces of their own. Confluant number of, and reducibility Reducibility and number of confluants Summary: One system may have many confluants, and many separated systems may have a single confluent 5502 5503

Confluant and topology Reflex, conditioned as compound equilibrium Topology in machines Summary: Every absolute system defines a topology, the "confluential", over the set of states. This topology may be similar to some other topology, well known over same set. Reflex, conditioned as compound equilibrium 5710 5711

Summary: I should re-read my Notes, Vol. 5 or so onwards, reading "lots of step-functions" as the more general "lots of equilibria", and lots of step-surfaces" as "lots of boundaries of confluents".
