Analysis of Mathematical Proof Ability in Abstract Algebra Course

open access: yes, 2020
Mathematical proving is an important ability to learn abstract algebra. Many students, however, found difficulties in solving problems involving mathematical proof. This research aims to describe the students' mathematical proving ability and to find out

Students' mathematical argumentation ability when proving mathematical statements based on self-efficacy

open access: yesJurnal Elemen, 2023
Argumentation as an aspect of problem-solving has been studied in mathematics education. However, mathematical proof still needs to be resolved further.

Practical Theory Extension in Event-B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
. The Rodin tool for Event-B supports formal modelling and proof using a mathematical language that is based on predicate logic and set theory. Although Rodin has in-built support for a rich set of operators and proof rules, for some application areas ...

On Proof and Progress in Mathematics [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the American Mathematical Society, 1994
In response to Jaffe and Quinn [math.HO/9307227], the author discusses forms of progress in mathematics that are not captured by formal proofs of theorems, especially in his own work in the theory of foliations and geometrization of 3-manifolds and dynamical systems.

Proof phenomenon as a function of the phenomenology of proving [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Kurt Gödel wrote (1964, p. 272), after he had read Husserl, that the notion of objectivity raises a question: “the question of the objective existence of the objects of mathematical intuition (which, incidentally, is an exact replica of the question of ...

Matching concepts across HOL libraries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Many proof assistant libraries contain formalizations of the same mathematical concepts. The concepts are often introduced (defined) in different ways, but the properties that they have, and are in turn formalized, are the same.

Mathematical Rigor, Proof Gap and the Validity of Mathematical Inference

open access: yesPhilosophia Scientiæ, 2014
Mathematical rigor is commonly formulated by mathematicians and philosophers using the notion of proof gap: a mathematical proof is rigorous when there is no gap in the mathematical reasoning of the proof. Any philosophical approach to mathematical rigor

Knowledge of mathematics teachers in initial training regarding mathematical proofs: Logic-mathematical aspects in the evaluation of arguments

open access: yesUniciencia, 2022
The objective of this study is to characterize the knowledge of mathematics teachers in initial training (MTITs) at the Universidad Nacional (Costa Rica) on the logic-syntactic and mathematical aspects involved in proving, when evaluating mathematical ...

On the difficulty of discovering mathematical proofs

open access: yesSynthese, 2023
Abstract An account of mathematical understanding should account for the differences between theorems whose proofs are “easy” to discover, and those whose proofs are difficult to discover. Though Hilbert seems to have created proof theory with the idea that it would address this kind of “discovermental complexity”, much more attention has ...

Application of Discovery Learning Method in Mathematical Proof of Students in Trigonometry

open access: yesDesimal, 2020
Trigonometry is a part of mathematics in learning that is related to angles. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the application of discovery learning methods in students' mathematical proof ability on trigonometry.
