In the actual world (w0), morning star = evening star. But their INTENSIONS differ (they pick out different things in other worlds).

Instances For
Belief is intensional: co-extensional expressions can differ under belief.
Up-down identity: applying down after up returns the original value.
Bridge to Direct Reference Theory #
The morningStar/eveningStar individual concepts defined above are
Fregean concepts (world-dependent). In contrast, proper names in
Semantics.Reference.Basic are Kripkean rigid designators.
This section makes the distinction explicit, connecting the existing Hesperus/Phosphorus examples to the direct reference framework.
"Hesperus" as a Kripkean proper name: rigid designator.
Contrast with morningStar above, which is a Fregean individual concept
that varies across worlds. The proper name always returns .hesperus.
Equations
Instances For
morningStar is NOT rigid: it picks out different entities at
different worlds. This contrasts with hesperus_rigid which IS rigid.
hesperus_rigid IS rigid (a proper name in the Kripkean sense).
Independence of names vs concepts: a Fregean individual concept
(morningStar) can agree with a Kripkean name (hesperus_rigid) at
one world while diverging at others.
