Towards a critical epistemology of mathematics
Prometeica, 2023 This essay addresses a critical epistemology of mathematics as an investigation into the epistemic limitations of mathematical thinking. After arguing for the relevance of a critical epistemology of mathematics, I discuss assumptions underlying standard

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

Georg Kreisel, for example, ends his review of the Remarks on the Foundations of Mathematics by saying that "it seems to me to be a surprisingly insignificant product of a sparkling ...

A Perspective on Interactive Theorem Provers in Physics
Advanced 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
