Munich, Germany

TOPIC

We want to investigate the landscape of current views on the foundations of 
mathematics. How do these views relate? Does mathematics even need a (uniform) 
foundation or should this idea be abandoned? Is mathematical practice 
justification enough? Should a foundational theory reflect our epistemic access 
to mathematics? How might future mathematics look like? Given the current 
debate, will foundational issues become irrelevant? Will they be resolved?


ABOUT

The workshop is a continuation of a series of conferences on logic and 
foundations of mathematics (Formal Mathematics, Bonn 2015; FOMUS, Bielefeld 
2016; LMP, Goettingen 2017). The meeting is designed as a hybrid between a 
research conference and a winter school. In addition to the scientific debate, 
it aims to foster a community of young scientists concerned with foundational 
questions.

This event is made possible by the generous support of the ?German Federal 
Academic Scholarship Foundation ("Stipendiaten machen Programm"), the Max 
Weber-Programme of the Free State of Bavaria ("Stipendiaten aktiv!"), and the 
Munich Centre for Mathematical Philosophy (MCMP).
