tautology

A synchrony in which formalism and representation are continuous ie. "is-is-is" collapses to 'is' or the "ohm."

A continuity of being and having.

A frame in which self-cyclicality achieves linearity (continuity) and value IS meta-value and meta-value is value rendering the semantics of "state" untenable.

In a tautology "is" is 'is' (and 'is' is "is").

tautology

A logical statement in which the conclusion is equivalent to the premise

Example of a tautology: Bad people take drugs; therefore, people who take drugs are bad.
The other definition appearing here, "Unnecessary repetition of a word", is a crudification and wrong - such pointless reiterative repetition is a redundancy, and one who makes such a definition is called a "redundunce". Consult Fowler.
