Abstract(in English) The cognitive capacity for number representation is thought to be a functional isomorphism of visuospatial representation. Here, we review the intimate relationship between space and number representations. Using patients with pathologic pain in a hand, who perceived midline of the sagittal axis of visuospace toward the affected side in the dark, we suggest that numbers are represented in a similar anisometric (compression/expansion) manner as space representation.
