中文简介: | 我将讲述最近关于数学基础的争议的戏剧性故事。我将从Cantor无限集理论中的问题开始,然后讨论Bertrand Russell,David Hilbert,Kurt Godel和Alan Turing的工作,最后讨论我自己使用复杂性的工作。这种基于复杂性的数学基础分析告诉我,数学可能比物理学和生物学更像是普遍认为的,并且有时候应该以准经验的方式进行,也就是说,更多的是实验科学的精神。 。 |
课程简介: | I'll tell the dramatic story of the recent disputes over the foundations of mathematics. I'll start with the problems in Cantor's theory of infinite sets and then discuss the work of Bertrand Russell, David Hilbert, Kurt Godel and Alan Turing, and finally my own work using complexity. This complexity-based analysis of the foundations of mathematics suggests to me that perhaps mathematics is more similar to physics and to biology than is commonly believed, and should sometimes be carried out quasi-empirically, that is, more in the spirit of an experimental science. |
关 键 词: | 数学基础; 无穷集合理论; 复杂性 |
