The Indeterminacy Of Computation

de Jack (University Of Canterbury) Copeland e Oron (The Hebrew University Of Jerusalem) Shagrir

~~74,35€~~ 66,92€ 10% IMEDIATO

portes grátis

 This Element describes computational indeterminacy which occurs when a fixed physical system potentially computes different functions. The phenomenon has potential significance in neuroscience and cognitive science, artificial intelligence, the theory of algorithms, and circuit design. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Philosophy Of Mathematics From Descartes To Kant

de Emily (Mcgill University, Montreal) Carson

~~24,33€~~ 21,90€ 10% IMEDIATO

portes grátis

 The comparison between geometry and philosophy required a proper understanding of how Euclidean demonstration secured certainty. This Element examines attempts by Descartes, Locke, Leibniz, Wolff, Lambert, Mendelssohn and Kant to address this question. The emphasis is on metaphysical and epistemological questions about geometrical demonstration.

Medieval Finitism

de Mohammad Saleh (The University Of Manchester) Zarepour

~~74,35€~~ 66,92€ 10% IMEDIATO

portes grátis

 This Element explores medieval arguments for the impossibility of infinity, focusing on the early stages of the development of the notion of 'infinities of different sizes'. The Equality Argument and Mapping Argument, initially proposed in opposition to infinity, have played significant roles in the historical evolution of this concept.

Husserl'S Philosophy Of Mathematical Practice

de Mirja (University Of Helsinki) Hartimo

~~74,35€~~ 66,92€ 10% IMEDIATO

portes grátis

 This Element explores Husserl's phenomenological method, focusing on radical sense-investigation and its application in mathematical practice. It presents Husserlian phenomenology as a method, not a fixed doctrine, and unifies it with contemporary philosophy of mathematical practice.
