数字对象或实体给我们带来了尖锐的特殊问题。其中最尖锐的问题是围绕数字世界和数字实体之间的身份构成的问题。这些问题在许多情况下都很重要，但是，当处理数字文本、文档和认证时，从法律、哲学和历史角度理解它们变得至关重要。在法律上，核心问题是作者身份、真实性和所有权；在哲学上，我们必须研究对象之间的各种逻辑关系以及确定对象的本体论性质的各种逻辑关系；从历史上看，我们关注的焦点是我们对年表的兴趣，以及对进步、适应、变化和起源的记录。我们的目的是强调为什么数字身份问题很重要，以及我们如何解决和回应其中的一些问题。首先，我们将考察区分数字环境和物理环境的路线，以及如何通过从数理逻辑领域引入传递性和对称性的概念，来尝试为这些问题提供至少是暂时的解决方案。
Digital objects or entities present us with particular problems of an acute nature. The most acute of these are the issues surrounding what constitutes identity within the digital world and between digital entities. These are problems that are important in many contexts but, when dealing with digital texts, documents, and certification, an understanding of them becomes vital legally, philosophically, and historically. Legally, the central issues are those of authorship, authenticity, and ownership; philosophically, we must be concerned with the sorts of logical relations that hold between objects and in determining the ontological nature of the object; and historically, our concern centers around our interest in chronology and the recording of progress, adaptation, change, and provenance. Our purpose is to emphasize why questions of digital identity matter and how we might address and respond to some of them. We will begin by examining the lines along which we draw a distinction between the digital and the physical context and how, by importing notions of transitivity and symmetry from the domain of mathematical logic, we might attempt to provide at least interim resolutions of these questions.
