The position Aristotle ascribes to Xenocrates is a bit more elusive.

That theory ascribes gravity to the warping of space and time by matter and energy, much as a mattress sags under a sleeper.
"My intent is not to judge the specific meaning anyone ascribes to that symbol or declare someone's personally held view to be incorrect."

This fallacy ascribes a causal relationship between two states or events on the basis of temporal succession.
Therefore, quantum mechanics ascribes different theoretical states to B, when B possesses, in fact, one real physical state.

Not because it revives Mill’s idea that the truths of arithmetic are empirical generalizations, but because it ascribes to mathematics the same kind of hypothetico-deductive structure that the empirical sciences supposedly display, with axioms playing the part of theories and their mathematical consequences playing the part of observation-statements (or in Lakatos’s terminology, “potential falsifiers”).
Aristotle names Xenocrates in the Topics in connection with two ethical views: at II 6. 112a37–38 he ascribes to him the view that a happy man is one with a good soul, along with (perhaps) the claim that one's soul is one's daimon, whatever that means; at VII 1. 152a7–9 he ascribes to him an argument to the effect that the good life and the happy life are the same, employing as premises the claims that the good life and the happy life are both the most choosable (a little later, in 152a26–30, Aristotle objects to this argument).
