  • Godel's Mistake

    The Role of Meaning in Mathematics

    by Ashish Dalela ...
    Gödel's incompleteness theorem is a foundational result in mathematics that proves that any axiomatic theory of numbers will be either inconsistent or incomplete. Turing’s Halting problem is a foundational result in computing proving that computers cannot know if a program will halt. Gödel’s Mistake connects these theorems to the question of meaning. The book shows that the proofs arise due to ... Read more

  • Visual Reasoning with Diagrams

    Edited by Amirouche Moktefi, Sun-Joo Shin ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Logic, the discipline that explores valid reasoning, does not need to be limited to a specific form of representation but should include any form as long as it allows us to draw sound conclusions from given information. The use of diagrams has a long but unequal history in logic: The golden age of diagrammatic logic of the 19th century thanks to Euler and Venn diagrams was followed by the early ... Read more
