Seminário sobre Intuição / Seminar on Intuition
Coordenado por Alexandra Van-Quynh

The global aim is to get a deep understanding of the role of intuition in science (and in particular in mathematics) through an extensive bibliographic research as developed by scientists, mathematicians and philosophers. We will focus mainly on the philosophy of mathematics and the psychology of intuition. | read more...

The co-evolution of math and mathematicians, por Luke Wolcott (IST/University of Western Ontario) no âmbito do Seminário Intuition, no dia 28 de Fevereiro de 2013, às 10h30 FCUL, Sala 8.2.03. [video]

Abstract: I will discuss the co-evolution of the content of mathematics and the community of mathematicians. The claim is that math is what it is, because the culture of mathematicians is what it is, and vice versa. I will give three specific examples of characteristics of mathematics; conjecture characteristics of mathematical practice that may have brought these about; then conjecture how these aspects of mathematics encourage certain math practices; and suggest ideas for how we could do math differently, to make math different.
