The Identity of Indiscernibles is the principle that there cannot be two individual things in nature that are qualitatively identical. The principle is not exactly popular. Michael Della Rocca tries to resurrect it by arguing that we must accept this principle, for otherwise we cannot explain the...
I suspect that, on this strategy, the properties to exclude would be exactly those that make the Principle of the Identity of Indiscernibles a triviality. For discussions of which properties those are, see Katz (1983), Rodriguez-Pereyra (2006, 2022)....
Lecture 5: Explores consequences of Leibniz's idea that complete concepts allow deducing everything true about things. Covers Section 9, including the Principle of Identity of Indiscernibles. Discusses how complete concepts seemingly negate freedom but addresses Leibniz's defense of freedom and contingen...
The principle of the identity of indiscernibles (PII) states that if two systems are qualitatively identical then they are logically identical. French and Redhead (1988) and Butterfield (1993) have shown the sense in which bosons and fermions violate the PII, but did not investigate the issue ...

In brief, the Ocean Novelty (ONo) index is derived from the Hellinger distance34 (HD), a formal metric (i.e., one that satisfies the triangle inequality and the identity of indiscernibles and is symmetric and non-negative) that measures the difference/similarity between pairs of distributions...
