We are particularly interested in studies dealing with differences between mathematical research cultures, and among these in studies dealing with concrete examples, as well as methodological discussions of the use of empirical and historical data from the study of mathematical practice for gaining insight in the phenomenon of mathematics. For this purpose, the term "culture" should be understood very widely, and cultural differences can be found distinguishing mathematical subdisciplines, national cultures, cultures imposed by university or institute structures, etc. Please submit abstracts of talks by the deadline of 7 December 2014 via our easychair submission page: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=com4. Please use the field "Abstract" to provide the abstract of your talk. Ignore the field "Upload Paper" by clicking the box "Abstract Only"; do not submit a paper. We should like to point out that IERTNiL and IASCUD provide modest travel grants to students and junior researchers: http://www.math.uni-hamburg.de/spag/ml/Delhi2015/grants.html. If you are submitting an abstract and applying for a grant, please mention the abstract in your grant application. "Cultures of Mathematics IV" is generously sponsored by the Indian Council for Philosophical Research (ICPR), the International Association for Science and Cultural Diversity (IASCUD), and the Indo-European Research Training Network in Logic (IERTNiL).
