In this paper, I develop a new defense of logicism: one that combines logicism and nominalism. First, I defend the logicist approach from recent criticisms; in particular from the charge that a crucial principle in the logicist reconstruction of ...

Logicism, Neo-Logicism, and the Logics of Abstraction [PDF]
Abstraction principles play a pivotal role in the foundations of mathematics. In the foundational programs in which they have been traditionally adopted, i.e. Frege’s logicism and Scottish neo-logicism, abstraction principles, conceived as definitions, augment a system of full higher-order logic.

Husserl Between Frege’s Logicism And Hilbert’s Formalism
The traditional view regarding the philosophy of mathematics in the twentieth century is the dogma of three schools: Logicism, Intuitionism and Formalism.

RésuméLe logicisme de Frege engage à deux thèses: (1) les vérités de l'arithmétique sont ipso facto vérités de logique; (2) les nombres naturels sont des objets. Dans cet article je pose la question: quelle conception de la logique est-elle requise pour étayer ces thèses? Je soutiens qu'il existe une conception appropriée et naturelle de la logique, en

On logicality and natural logic [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper we focus on the logicality of language, i.e. the idea that the language system contains a deductive device to exclude analytic constructions. Puzzling evidence for the logicality of language comes from acceptable contradictions and tautologies. The standard response in the literature involves assuming that the language system only

The Logic of Logic Programming
Our position is that logic programming is not programming in the Horn clause sublogic of classical logic, but programming in a logic of (inductive) definitions. Thus, the similarity between prototypical Prolog programs (e.g., member, append, ...) and how inductive definitions are expressed in mathematical text, is not coincidental but essential.

We develop a classical propositional logic for reasoning about combinatory logic. We define its syntax, axiomatic system and semantics. The syntax and axiomatic system are presented based on classical propositional logic, with typed combinatory terms as basic propositions, along with the semantics based on applicative structures extended with special ...

Logicism, Formalism, and Intuitionism [PDF]
This paper objectively defines the three main contemporary philosophies of mathematics: formalism, logicism, and intuitionism. Being the three leading scientists of each: Hilbert (formalist), Frege (logicist), and Poincaré (intuitionist)
