I vaguely recall reading an article from a journal about circular definitions, and another article about circular proofs, but I forgot the authors and also what journal it was from. So, can anyone help me by giving me references for research on the concept of circular definitions and circular proofs? I don't mind if no one mentions the same articles I was reading, I would still be interested in any articles or texts on the research of circular definitions and proofs.
