متن کامل1 Theorems as Constructive Visions
This paper briefly reviews some epistemological perspectives on the foundation of mathematical concepts and proofs.

In reference to basic cognitive phenomena, the paper focuses on order and symmetries as core “construction principles” for mathematical knowledge. A distinction is then made betwee...

It is complex in time, space and process, and may be considered in terms of the scale, relative timing, duration and novelty of its various phenomena. The lithostratigraphic signal includes both di...
