Gregory's sixth operation

Tiziana Bascelli, Piotr Blaszczyk, Vladimir Kanovei +6

In relation to a thesis put forward by Marx Wartofsky, we seek to show that a historiography of mathematics requires an analysis of the ontology of the part of mathematics under sc…

A generic property of Solovay's set

Vladimir Kanovei, Vassily Lyubetsky

We prove that Solovay's set is generic over the ground model via a forcing notion whose order relation -extends the given order relation.

Toward a history of mathematics focused on procedures

Piotr Blaszczyk, Vladimir Kanovei, Karin U. Katz +3

Abraham Robinson's framework for modern infinitesimals was developed half a century ago. It enables a re-evaluation of the procedures of the pioneers of mathematical analysis. Thei…

Countable OD sets of reals belong to the ground model

Vladimir Kanovei, Vassily Lyubetsky

It is true in the Cohen, Solovay-random, dominaning, and Sacks generic extension that every countable ordinal-definable set of reals belongs to to the ground universe

In Cohen generic extension, every countable OD set of reals belongs to the ground model

Vladimir Kanovei

It is true in the Cohen generic extension of L, the constructible universe, that every countable ordinal-definable set of reals belongs to L.

Is Leibnizian calculus embeddable in first order logic?

Piotr Blaszczyk, Vladimir Kanovei, Karin U. Katz +4

To explore the extent of embeddability of Leibnizian infinitesimal calculus in first-order logic (FOL) and modern frameworks, we propose to set aside ontological issues and focus o…

Interpreting the infinitesimal mathematics of Leibniz and Euler

Jacques Bair, Piotr Blaszczyk, Robert Ely +10

We apply Benacerraf's distinction between mathematical ontology and mathematical practice (or the structures mathematicians use in practice) to examine contrasting interpretations…

Small oscillations of the pendulum, Euler's method, and adequality

Vladimir Kanovei, Karin U. Katz, Mikhail G. Katz +1

Small oscillations evolved a great deal from Klein to Robinson. We propose a concept of solution of differential equation based on Euler's method with infinitesimal mesh, with well…

OD elements of countable OD sets in the Solovay model

Vladimir Kanovei

It is true in the Solovay model that every countable ordinal-definable set of sets of reals contains only ordinal-definable elements.

Controversies in the foundations of analysis: Comments on Schubring's Conflicts

Piotr Blaszczyk, Vladimir Kanovei, Mikhail Katz +1

Foundations of Science recently published a rebuttal to a portion of our essay it published two years ago. The author, G. Schubring, argues that our 2013 text treated unfairly his…
