Deductive theories and non-deductive knowledge
- Abstract:
- I start by briefly considering three different epistemological conceptions associated with deductive theories. I then relate the conceptions to the debate about whether non-deductive knowledge of mathematical claims is possible. The hope is that getting clearer about the different types of deductive science sheds light on whether a mathematical statement can be known without anyone having a proof of it.
