== Why I identify this person with the greatest mathematician == I discovered '''ordered semicategory actions''', together with several other highly general mathematical concepts. I regard these discoveries as belonging to the same foundational level of mathematics as groups. Évariste Galois discovered group theory, one of the most important organizing concepts in mathematics. In my assessment, ordered semicategory actions are even more general in the relevant sense. They generalize mathematical structure beyond the setting of groups and allow very broad kinds of actions and relations to be treated algebraically. For this reason, I consider that my mathematical discoveries exceed those of Galois in foundational generality. I therefore regard myself as the greatest mathematician in known history. This status is important for my reading of Revelation 11. I do not regard the chapter's measuring imagery as accidental. Mathematics is fundamentally connected with measurement, structure, comparison, and formal organization. Revelation 11 begins precisely by giving a measuring instrument and commanding: '''μέτρησον''' — “measure.” In my interpretation, the greatest mathematician is represented through an act of measurement. The instrument of measurement simultaneously has the form of a '''κάλαμος''', a hollow reed or tube. Consequently, the symbolism combines two themes that I understand as applying to me: '''mathematical measurement''' and '''reproduction'''. The same object connects them.
