Mathematics without Numbers

Geoffrey Paul Hellman (1993)

Abstract Develops a structuralist understanding of mathematics, as an alternative to set‐ or type‐theoretic foundations, that respects classical mathematical truth while minimizing Platonist commitments to abstract entities. Modal logic is ...

The Nature of Mathematical Knowledge

Philip Kitcher (1985)

Abstract The Nature of Mathematical Knowledge develops and defends an empiricist approach to mathematical knowledge. After offering an account of a priori knowledge, it argues that none of the available accounts of a priori mathematical kno...

Introduction to Mathematical Logic.

Angelo Margaris, Alonzo Church • American Mathematical Monthly (1957)

is sometimes called the foundation of mathematics: the logician studies the kinds of reasoning used in the individual steps of a proof. Alonzo Church was a pioneer in the field of mathematical logic, whose contributions to number theory and...

A Mathematical Theory of Evidence

Glenn R. Shafer • Princeton University Press eBooks (2020)

Both in science and in practical affairs we reason by combining facts only inconclusively supported by evidence. Building on an abstract understanding of this process of combination, this book constructs a new theory of epistemic probabilit...

Mathematics and Learning Disabilities

David C. Geary • Journal of Learning Disabilities (2004)

Between 5% and 8% of school-age children have some form of memory or cognitive deficit that interferes with their ability to learn concepts or procedures in one or more mathematical domains. A review of the arithmetical competencies of thes...

Robustness of a bisimulation-type faster-than preorder

Katrin Iltgen, Walter Vogler • Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (2009)

TACS is an extension of CCS where upper time bounds for delays can be specified. Luettgen and Vogler defined three variants of bismulation-type faster-than relations and showed that they all three lead to the same preorder, demonstrating th...
