Proofs without words

open access: yesLietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2023
Usually, proofs of mathematical statements involve both algebraic rearrangements and logical reasoning. But there are mathematical statements whose truth is obvious at first glance when there is a diagram illustrating that proof.

Mathematical Proofs

open access: yesSynthese, 2003
The aim I am pursuing here is to describe some general aspects of mathematical proofs. In my view, a mathematical proof is a warrant to assert a non-tautological statement which claims that certain objects (possibly a certain object) enjoy a certain property. Because it is proved, such a statement is a mathematical theorem.
