Monism: The Priority of the Whole
TL;DR: In this article, a circle and a pair of its semicircles are considered, and the question is whether either the whole or its parts are prior to the whole, or a derivative construction from its parts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Information-Theoretic Limitations of Formal Systems
TL;DR: An attempt is made to apply information-theoretic computational complexity to meta-mathematics by measuring the difficulty of proving a given set of theorems, in terms of the number of bits of axioms that are assumed, and the size of the proofs needed to deduce the theoremic proofs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spacetime the one substance
TL;DR: In this article, the relation between material objects and spacetime regions was investigated and the question of whether or not material objects are a second sort of substance was also raised, and a monistic view was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
The missing link: Riemann's “Commentatio,” differential geometry and tensor analysis
Ruth Farwell,Christopher Knee +1 more
TL;DR: Riemann's Collected Works contains a seldom mentioned paper on heat conduction, written in Latin and unsuccessfully submitted for a prize to the Academie des Sciences in Paris in 1861 as discussed by the authors.
Dissertation
The relationship between school science and mathematics education
TL;DR: Wong et al. as mentioned in this paper explored participants' experiences and views of the relationship between mathematics and science education and found that the dependency in the relationship is asymmetrical: science is dependent on mathematics, but the reverse is not true making it difficult for a truly mutually beneficial relationship to be developed as science will always tend to gain more from any collaboration.

A note on monte carlo primality tests and algorithmic information theory
TL;DR: Solovay and Strassen, and Miller and Rabin have discovered fast algorithms for testing primality which use coin-flipping and whose coefficients do not depend on the value of the coin.
