Kurt Gödel, mathematician and logician, was one of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century. Gödel fled Nazi Germany, fearing for his Jewish wife and fed up with Nazi interference in the ...
Although little known, it is a landmark of 20th-century thought. The proof brought to light certain astonishing limitations which have always been inherent in mathematics and mathematical logic ...
Hilbert sought to build mathematics up as a logically flawless structure that would be complete, in that every true statement S could be derived from a finite set of axioms, and also consistent ...
Topics include propositional logic, boolean algebras and rings, first-order logic and systems of deduction. Time permitting, we will touch on Tarski's notion of model, and the completeness and ...
The University Catalog contains a complete list of courses taught in the Philosophy Department. Undergraduate courses are those numbered in the 1000s, 2000s, 3000s, and 4000s. Upper division courses ...
