Reflections on the Foundations of Mathematics: Essays in Honor of Solomon Feferman: Lecture Notes in Logic 15

Editat de Wilfried Sieg, Richard Sommer, Carolyn Talcott
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 aug 2002
Solomon Feferman has shaped the field of foundational research for nearly half a century. These papers, most of which were presented at the symposium honoring him at his 70th birthday, reflect his broad interests as well as his approach to foundational research, which places the solution of mathematical and philosophical problems at the top of his agenda. The contributions range from historical to technical to philosophical topics, with emphasis on proof theory and computational aspects.

Descriere

This book is based on a symposium held at Stanford University. It focuses on the semantic content of the theories under consideration, rather than the syntactic structure of their proofs, and describes the systems of ordinal notations that are needed to carry out the ordinal analysis.
