On the proofs of some formally unprovable propositions and prototype proofs in type theory (English)
0 references
The author examines some specific limits of the formalization of logic and mathematics in order to give insight into and encourage a broadening of tools for formal proofs. The role of mathematical induction and well-orderedness in proofs is discussed in great detail, but there is no discussion of the implications of the logical equivalence of mathematical induction and well-orderedness. The author concludes that the foundation of mathematics lies in logic, formalisms and regularities of phenomenal space. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0988.00060].
