positionsthat

Positionsthat is a term used in theoretical discussions of spatial reasoning and linguistic representation to denote the set of positional assignments that can be made within a defined problem space. It is a neologism created to discuss how different entities may occupy or relate to locations, stances, or orientations under given constraints.

Definition and formal view: Given a space P of possible positions and a constraint C that describes admissible configurations, the positionsthat relative to C is the subset {p in P | C(p) holds}. A positionsthat may be single-valued (one position) or multi-valued (a set of positions) depending on the model.

Applications: In robotics and autonomous navigation, positionsthat helps reason about all locations a vehicle can reach within a time bound or under obstacle constraints. In natural language processing, the term can be used metaphorically to refer to the positions that a referent can take in a discourse or argument structure when considering binding and scope. In planning and analysis, it provides a compact way to describe feasible regions of a state space under complex conditions.

Examples: On a 2D grid, with constraints x >= 1 and y = 0, the positionsthat is the set of all cells with coordinates (x,0) and x >= 1. In a safety-aware planning problem, the positionsthat encodes positions that avoid hazard zones while remaining within operational boundaries.

Relation to other concepts and limitations: positionsthat is related to space, reachability, and constraint satisfaction. It is not an established term in standard literature and is used here as a neutral, fictional descriptor to illustrate how positional reasoning can be framed. See also space, reachability, and constraint satisfaction.
