Completeness or Incompleteness of Basic Mathematical Concepts
... (6) It is irrelevant to pure mathematics whether either of these concepts is instantiated. My main reason for making this assertion is that our number-theoretic and set-theoretic knowledge, including our axioms and our proofs, is based entirely on these concepts. I will not argue in this paper for t ...

... (Akaike, 1974; Forster and Sober, 1994; Vapnik, 1998), but that instrumentalistic approach falls short of justifying belief in the theories, themselves. At the opposite extreme, Bayesians can post arbitrarily high betting quotients on inductive conclusions, and can explain Ockham’s razor in a ratio ...

Interpreting and Applying Proof Theories for Modal Logic
... 1 Statements in the classical sequent calculus, such as A ∨ B ⇒ A, B or (8x)(Fx ∨ Gx) ⇒ (8x)Fx, (9x)Gx are in the meta-language of classical logic, for these are statements about validity or consequence, between object language statements. ...

Notes on Writing Proofs

An axiom is a proposition about the objects in question which we do not attempt to prove but rather which we accept as given. By a propositio ...
