S-82 – Global Mathematics S‐82 – Global Mathematics (8 sessions, 32 participants) The History of Mathematics Organizers: 1) Michael J. Barany, (Dartmouth College, USA), [email protected] 2) Rogério Monteiro, (Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil), [email protected] 3) Anne‐Sandrine Paumier, (IHES/FMJH, France), [email protected] All organizers can alternatively be reached by the single address: [email protected] Abstract: Mathematics today is presented as a global discipline. Mathematicians regularly travel thousands of miles to present their work and to collaborate. They share ideas and findings in an interconnected community that spans nations, languages, and continents. Our symposium on “Global Mathematics” assembles a range of historical and ethnographic perspectives on the emergence and consequences of this global system of mathematics from the late nineteenth century to the present. While the preceding period of “internationalization” in mathematics has received considerable scholarly attention over the last few decades, historians have only recently begun systematically to scrutinize later developments that saw mathematicians joined on an significantly broader scale. We examine mathematics “between the Global and the Local” through analyses of the individual and institutional circumstances that made global mathematics possible, situating them in their social, economic, cultural, political, technological, and scientific contexts. With these analyses, we situate mathematics in an emerging literature on global science while also marking where the story for mathematics departs from recent findings concerning other fields. Speakers will relate changing mathematical theories and images of mathematics as a discipline in the period of globalization to the changing professional contexts of mathematical work and collaboration, as well as the changing values and infrastructures of mathematics education. These changes are evident in the shifting relations between national and regional mathematical communities, in the emergence and effects of new transnational institutions, as well as in particular communities’ responses to new global connections. We trace an arc through the two World Wars and the Cold War and its aftermath, showing how new geographies of power and prestige were manifested through new modes of communication and travel as well as new ideas about the nature and content of mathematics and their relation to the goals of state and society. The symposium will combine new historical accounts with new historiographical approaches to understanding the distinctive phenomena of global mathematics. With speakers and subjects‐matter ranging across continents and hemispheres— principally focused on, but not limited to, the Americas (South and North), Europe (West and East), and East Asia—we aim to foster productive comparisons and to recognize connections and convergences not immediately visible in individual studies. Such encounters will shed new light on the effects of scale, place, ideals, and practices in constituting professional mathematical communities and mathematically‐literate societies that became interconnected, in the last century and a half, as never before. Keywords: history of mathematics – globalization – communication – mathematics education – long twentieth century. Expected Participants: 1. Leo Corry, Israel, Tel‐Aviv University 2.

The workshop addressed the problem of combining the reasoning capabilities of Deduction Systems and the computational power of Computer Algebra Systems. This topic is of particular interest since both Deduction Systems and Computer Algebra Systems are receiving growing at- tention from industry and academia. On the one hand, Mathematical Software Systems have been commercially very successful: their use is now wide-spread in industry, education, and in scientific contexts. On the other hand, the use of formal methods in hardware and software development makes Deduction Systems indispensable not least because of the complexity and sheer size of the reasoning tasks involved. In spite of these successes there is still need for improvement as many application domains still fall outside the scope of existing Deduction Systems and Computer Al- gebra Systems. The emphasis of the workshop was on whether existing systems and technologies can be integrated as they stand or if a fundamental redesign is necessary. The proceedings contain contributions from some of the most important scientific groups in- volved in research and applications of automatic deduction and symbolic computation. The 11 papers selected by the programme committee and the two invited talks address various aspects related to the combination of deduction systems and computer algebra systems, including case studies and results from applications.

  • Interactions Between PVS and Maple in Symbolic Analysis of Control Systems
    Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science 151 (2006) 111–125 www.elsevier.com/locate/entcs Interactions Between PVS and Maple in Symbolic Analysis of Control Systems Ruth Hardy1 ,2 School of Computer Science University of St Andrews St Andrews, Scotland Abstract This paper presents a decision procedure for problems relating polynomial and transcendental functions. The procedure applies to functions that are continuously differentiable with a finite number of points of inflection in a closed convex set. It decides questions of the form ‘is f ∼ 0?’, where ∼∈ {=,>,<}. An implementation of the procedure in Maple and PVS exploits the existing Maple, PVS and QEPCAD connections. It is at present limited to those twice differentiable functions whose derivatives are rational functions (rationally differentiable). This procedure is particularly applicable to the analysis of control systems in determining important properties such as stability. Keywords: reliable mathematics, formal methods, quantifier elimination, control systems, Maple-PVS, QEPCAD 1 Introduction Many problems in the fields of mathematics, computer science and control en- gineering can be reduced to decision and quantifier elimination problems [7], [14], [20], often involving trigonometric and transcendental functions; prob- lems such as algebraic surface intersection and display; robot motion planning 1 Thanks go to Ursula Martin and Richard Boulton for their help and guidance, especially in the early stages of this work, also to Roy Dyckhoff and Steve Linton for their continuing help and guidance. Additional thanks go to John Hall, Rick Hyde and Yoge Patel for sharing their insights into control engineering, and to Rob Arthan, Tom Kelsey and Colin O’Halloran for many helpful discussions.

In Autumn 2017, I co-developed and taught on a new course, “Data Science for Design” at the Edinburgh College of Art. I’ve also contributed to grant development, with financial support from the EPSRC Platform grant EP/N014758/1. Goldsmiths, University of London - Researcher in Computational Creativity, 2013-2017 Carried out research on social creativity in mathematics as part of the EU project COINVENT (611553), and coor- dinated consortium-wide evaluation activities. I also wrote Clojure code that interoperates with a Java codebase for automatic program synthesis that was developed in Simon Colton’s project on “Computational Creativity Theory” (EP/J004049/1).

The Open University - Research Student, 2010-2014 Doctor of Philosophy (Computing), 2014 I made a case for learning mathematics the same way learning works in free/libre/open source software. My argu- ment was supported by (1) statistical analysis of a decade of interaction data from the website PlanetMath.org that showed how social factors contribute to learning outcomes; and (2) user studies in a public deployment of a new software system for the site.

  • Argumentation Theory for Mathematical Argument
    Argumentation manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Argumentation theory for mathematical argument Joseph Corneli · Ursula Martin · Dave Murray-Rust · Gabriela Rino Nesin · Alison Pease Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract To adequately model mathematical arguments the analyst must be able to represent the mathematical objects under discussion and the relationships between them, as well as inferences drawn about these objects and relationships as the discourse unfolds. We introduce a framework with these properties, which has been used to analyse mathematical dialogues and expository texts. The framework can recover salient elements of discourse at, and within, the sentence level, as well as the way mathematical content connects to form larger argumentative structures. We show how the framework might be used to support computational reasoning, and argue that it provides a more natural way to examine the process of proving theorems than do Lamport’s structured proofs.
