Reflections on Mathematics∗
Though the philosophy of mathematics encompasses many kinds of questions, my response to the five questions primarily focuses on the prospects of developing a unified approach to the metaphysical and epistemological issues concerning mathematics. My answers will be framed from within a single conceptual framework. By ‘conceptual framework’, I mean an explicit and formal listing of primitive not...
متن کاملReflections on reflections in explicit mathematics
We give a broad discussion of reflection principles in explicit mathematics, thereby addressing various kinds of universe existence principles. The proof-theoretic strength of the relevant systems of explicit mathematics is couched in terms of suitable extensions of KripkePlatek set theory.
متن کاملMathematics and Real Life: Reflections on Teaching Mathematics
Mathematicians a hundred years ago would have had no difficulty in giving convincing answersfor many of them were involved in interdisciplinary research. For historical reasons, Mathematics had to undergo a period of intense introspection from which it is only now emerging. Most of us have thus grown up doing mathematics for its own sake, because we enjoy doing it and it satisfies our basic des...
متن کاملMathematics Teachers’ Approaches to “Listening” in Mathematics Classes: A phenomenographic approach
The ways that mathematics teachers listen to students’ explanation, influence their understanding of students and their teaching activities. If teachers be informed about different ways of “listening” to students’ ideas and conceptions concerning mathematics, they might be able to use listening as an effective teaching method to enhance students’ mathematical learning. The related literature in...
متن کاملReflections on a categorical foundations of mathematics
We examine Gödel’s completeness and incompleteness theorems for higher order arithmetic from a categorical point of view. The former says that a proposition is provable if and only if it is true in all models, which we take to be local toposes, i.e. Lawvere’s elementary toposes in which the terminal object is a nontrivial indecomposable projective. The incompleteness theorem showed that, in the...
