Parker's PenséesEp. 168 - The Most Fascinating Puzzles in the Philosophy of Mathematics w/Dr. Mark ColyvanWhat are numbers? Are the real entities out there in the world? In some other realm? Should we be Platonists about numbers? How can abstract mathematics be so applicable to our everyday existence? These are some of the questions Dr. Mark Colyvan and I discuss in this episode of the Parker's Pensées Podcast. Find more of Mark's work here: http://www.colyvan.com/

Increments#25 - Mathematical Explanation with Mark ColyvanWe often talk of explanation in the context of empirical sciences, but what about explanation in logic and mathematics? Is there such a thing? If so, what does it look like and what are the consequences? In this episode we sit down with professor of philosophy Mark Colyvan and explore
How mathematical explanation differs from explanation in the natural sciences
Counterfactual reasoning in mathematics
Intra versus extra mathematical explanation
Alternate logics
Mathematical thought experiments
The use of probability in the courtroom

UskonnonfilosofiaJakso 9: Uskonto ja tiede #2 "onko vika sittenkin naturalismissa?"Tiede ja uskonto -duologian toisessa osassa Aleksi ja Rasmus perehtyvät Plantingan pahamaineiseen evolutiiviseen argumenttiin naturalismia vastaan: onko todella niin, että tiede ja naturalismi eivät sovi yhteen? Jaksoissa käväistään Rasmuksen iloksi myös matematiikan filosofian puolella ja tarjotaan kuuntelijoille rautaisannos pragmatistista filosofiaa, kun Aleksi pyrkii rakentamaan vastalausetta Plantingan argumentille.

MCMP – Mathematical Philosophy (Archive 2011/12)The Ins and Outs of Mathematical ExplanationMark Colyvan (Sydney) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium titled "The Ins and Outs of Mathematical Explanation". Abstract: Proofs of mathematical theorems tell us that the theorem is true, but some proofs go further and tell us why the theorem is true. That is, some, but not all, proofs are explanatory. Call this intra-mathematical explanation. It has been argued that whenever there are physical applications of the theorems in question, we also have mathematical explanations of physical phenomena. Call this extra-mathematical explanation. In this paper I will consider both intra- and extra-mathematical explanations and discuss why they are of...
2019-04-2050 minMCMP – Mathematical Philosophy (Archive 2011/12)A Generalised SoritesMark Colyvan (Sydney) gives a talk at the MCMP Colloquium titled "A Generalised Sorites ". Abstract: I present a topological version of the sorites paradox that holds both practical and theoretical interest. On the theoretical side, the topological sorites reveals shortcomings of some of the standard philosophical treatments of the garden-variety sorites, it forces us to rethink our definition of 'vagueness', and it suggests that the liar and sorites paradoxes are much closer related than one might think. On the practical side, the topological sorites is found in various applied scientific contexts, giving rise to a particularly nasty kind of uncertainty...

Sydney Ideas2016 Harley Wood Lecture: Life in a Finely Tuned CosmosThe Astronomical Society of Australia (ASA) 2016 Harley Wood Lecture for the ASA 50th anniversary Annual Scientific Meeting
Over the last 40 years, scientists have uncovered evidence that if the Universe had been forged with even slightly different properties, life as we know it - and life as we can imagine it - would be impossible. With small tweaks to the way the Universe works, we can erase the periodic table, disintegrate particles and remove all traces of structure in the cosmos.
Join us on a journey through how we understand the Universe, from its most basic particles and forces, to planets...
