Our conception of logical space is the set of distinctions we use to navigate the world. AgustÃn Rayo argues that this is shaped by acceptance or rejection of 'just is'-statements: e.g. 'to be composed of water just is to be composed of H2O'. He offers a novel conception of metaphysical possibility, and a trivialist philosophy of mathematics.
