Kripkenstein from the mathematical point of view: a preliminary survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper deals with the problem of the impact of Kripke’s skeptical paradox on the philosophy of mathematics. By perceiving mathematics as a huge rule-following discipline, one could argue that the Kripkean nonfactualist thesis should be adopted ...

The assessment of changing in mathematical ends in Maddy’s philosophy

open access: yesFilosofia Unisinos, 2016
In Maddy’s philosophy, mathematics is autonomous, i.e., it is not subordinated to either science or philosophy. Mathematics establishes and pursues its own goals and must be judged on its own terms.

Lakatos’ Quasi-empiricism in the Philosophy of Mathematics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Imre Lakatos' views on the philosophy of mathematics are important and they have often been underappreciated. The most obvious lacuna in this respect is the lack of detailed discussion and analysis of his 1976a paper and its implications for the ...

Categories without structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The popular view according to which Category theory provides a support for Mathematical Structuralism is erroneous. Category-theoretic foundations of mathematics require a different philosophy of mathematics.

A Perspective on Interactive Theorem Provers in Physics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Into an interactive theorem provers (ITPs), one can write mathematical definitions, theorems and proofs, and the correctness of those results is automatically checked. This perspective goes over the best usage of ITPs within physics and motivates the open‐source community run project PhysLean, the aim of which is to be a library for digitalized physics

Mathematics discovered, invented, and inherited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The classical platonist/formalist dilemma in philosophy of mathematics can be expressed in lay terms as a deceptively naive question: is new mathematics discovered or invented?
