Neo-Logicism and Russell's Logicism
, 2012 Certain advocates of the so-called "neo-logicist" movement in the philosophy of mathematics identify themselves as "neo-Fregeans" (e.g., Hale and Wright), presenting an updated and revised version of Frege’s form of logicism.

, 2005 This paper is divided into four sections. The first two identify different logicist theses, and show that their truth-values can be conclusively established on minimal assumptions.

Logic, Logicism, and Intuitions in Mathematics [PDF]
, 2001 In this work I study the main tenets of the logicist philosophy of mathematics. I deal, basically, with two problems: (1) To what extent can one dispense with intuition in mathematics? (2) What is the appropriate logic for the purposes of logicism?

Neo-Logicism and Its Logic [PDF]
, 2020 The rather unrestrained use of second-order logic in the neo-logicist program is critically examined. It is argued in some detail that it brings with it genuine set-theoretical existence assumptions and that the mathematical power that Hume’s Principle ...

The Interpretation of Probability: Still an Open Issue? 1
Philosophies, 2017 Probability as understood today, namely as a quantitative notion expressible by means of a function ranging in the interval between 0–1, took shape in the mid-17th century, and presents both a mathematical and a philosophical aspect.

Logicism, Neo-Logicism, and the Logics of Abstraction
, 2023 ion 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

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

The Archaeological Excavation Report of Rigny: An Example of an Interoperable Logicist Publication
Heritage, 2019 The logicist program, which was initiated in the 1970s by J.C. Gardin, aims to clarify the reasoning processes in the field of archaeology and to explore new forms of publication, in order to overcome the growing imbalance between the flood of ...
