Book Synopsis The Mathematical Representation of Physical Reality by : Shahen Hacyan
Download or read book The Mathematical Representation of Physical Reality written by Shahen Hacyan and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the rise of mathematics in physical sciences, beginning with Galileo and Newton and extending to the present day. The book is divided into two parts. The first part gives a brief history of how mathematics was introduced into physics--despite its "unreasonable effectiveness" as famously pointed out by a distinguished physicist--and the criticisms it received from earlier thinkers. The second part takes a more philosophical approach and is intended to shed some light on that mysterious effectiveness. For this purpose, the author reviews the debate between classical philosophers on the existence of innate ideas that allow us to understand the world and also the philosophically based arguments for and against the use of mathematics in physical sciences. In this context, Schopenhauer's conceptions of causality and matter are very pertinent, and their validity is revisited in light of modern physics. The final question addressed is whether the effectiveness of mathematics can be explained by its “existence” in an independent platonic realm, as Gödel believed. The book aims at readers interested in the history and philosophy of physics. It is accessible to those with only a very basic (not professional) knowledge of physics.

Book Synopsis Physics, Structure, and Reality by : Jill North
Download or read book Physics, Structure, and Reality written by Jill North and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Physics, Structure, and Reality, Jill North addresses a set of questions that get to the heart of the project of interpreting physics--of figuring out what physics is telling us about the world. How do we figure out the nature of the world from a mathematically formulated physical theory? What do we infer about the world when a physical theory can be mathematically formulated in different ways? North argues that there is a certain notion of structure, implicit in physics and mathematics, to which we should pay careful attention in order to discern what physics is telling us about the nature of reality. North draws lessons for related topics, including the use of coordinate systems in physics, the differences among various formulations of classical mechanics, the nature of spacetime structure, the equivalence of physical theories, and the importance of scientific explanation. Although the book does not explicitly defend scientific realism, instead taking this to be a background assumption, the account provides an indirect case for realism toward our best theories of physics.
Book Synopsis Neo-Aristotelian Perspectives on Contemporary Science by : William M.R. Simpson
Download or read book Neo-Aristotelian Perspectives on Contemporary Science written by William M.R. Simpson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-19 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last two decades have seen two significant trends emerging within the philosophy of science: the rapid development and focus on the philosophy of the specialised sciences, and a resurgence of Aristotelian metaphysics, much of which is concerned with the possibility of emergence, as well as the ontological status and indispensability of dispositions and powers in science. Despite these recent trends, few Aristotelian metaphysicians have engaged directly with the philosophy of the specialised sciences. Additionally, the relationship between fundamental Aristotelian concepts—such as "hylomorphism", "substance", and "faculties"—and contemporary science has yet to receive a critical and systematic treatment. Neo-Aristotelian Perspectives on Contemporary Science aims to fill this gap in the literature by bringing together essays on the relationship between Aristotelianism and science that cut across interdisciplinary boundaries. The chapters in this volume are divided into two main sections covering the philosophy of physics and the philosophy of the life sciences. Featuring original contributions from distinguished and early-career scholars, this book will be of interest to specialists in analytical metaphysics and the philosophy of science.
Book Synopsis Logos and Alogon by : Arkady Plotnitsky
Download or read book Logos and Alogon written by Arkady Plotnitsky and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-16 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a philosophical study of mathematics, pursued by considering and relating two aspects of mathematical thinking and practice, especially in modern mathematics, which, having emerged around 1800, consolidated around 1900 and extends to our own time, while also tracing both aspects to earlier periods, beginning with the ancient Greek mathematics. The first aspect is conceptual, which characterizes mathematics as the invention of and working with concepts, rather than only by its logical nature. The second, Pythagorean, aspect is grounded, first, in the interplay of geometry and algebra in modern mathematics, and secondly, in the epistemologically most radical form of modern mathematics, designated in this study as radical Pythagorean mathematics. This form of mathematics is defined by the role of that which beyond the limits of thought in mathematical thinking, or in ancient Greek terms, used in the book’s title, an alogon in the logos of mathematics. The outcome of this investigation is a new philosophical and historical understanding of the nature of modern mathematics and mathematics in general. The book is addressed to mathematicians, mathematical physicists, and philosophers and historians of mathematics, and graduate students in these fields.
Book Synopsis Randomness And Realism: Encounters With Randomness In The Scientific Search For Physical Reality by : John W Fowler
Download or read book Randomness And Realism: Encounters With Randomness In The Scientific Search For Physical Reality written by John W Fowler and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Randomness is an active element relevant to all scientific activities. The book explores the way in which randomness suffuses the human experience, starting with everyday chance events, followed by developments into modern probability theory, statistical mechanics, scientific data analysis, quantum mechanics, and quantum gravity. An accessible introduction to these theories is provided as a basis for going into deeper topics.Fowler unveils the influence of randomness in the two pillars of science, measurement and theory. Some emphasis is placed on the need and methods for optimal characterization of uncertainty. An example of the cost of neglecting this is the St. Petersburg Paradox, a theoretical game of chance with an infinite expected payoff value. The role of randomness in quantum mechanics reveals another particularly interesting finding: that in order for the physical universe to function as it does and permit conscious beings within it to enjoy sanity, irreducible randomness is necessary at the quantum level.The book employs a certain level of mathematics to describe physical reality in a more precise way that avoids the tendency of nonmathematical descriptions to be occasionally misleading. Thus, it is most readily digested by young students who have taken at least a class in introductory calculus, or professional scientists and engineers curious about the book's topics as a result of hearing about them in popular media. Readers not inclined to savor equations should be able to skip certain technical sections without losing the general flow of ideas. Still, it is hoped that even readers who usually avoid equations will give those within these pages a chance, as they may be surprised at how potentially foreboding concepts fall into line when one makes a legitimate attempt to follow a succession of mathematical implications.
Book Synopsis Confronting The Enigma Of Time by : John R Fanchi
Download or read book Confronting The Enigma Of Time written by John R Fanchi and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2023-03-14 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Newton's classical mechanics, time played the role of a monotonically increasing evolution parameter. Einstein rejected the Newtonian concept and instead identified time as the fourth coordinate of a space-time four-vector. Today, scientists are considering different concepts of time as a means of resolving incompatibilities between relativity and quantum mechanics. Some view time as an emergent property of a system rather than a fundamental property, while others consider two temporal variables. The purpose of this book is to examine the role of time in modern physics so that the reader gains an increased awareness of time and its place in our understanding of nature.
Book Synopsis The Structure and Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics by : R. I. G. Hughes
Download or read book The Structure and Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics written by R. I. G. Hughes and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important work provides an account of the philosophical foundations of quantum theory that should become a classic text for scientists and nonscientists alike. Hughes offers the first detailed and accessible analysis of the Hilbert-space models used in quantum theory and explains why they are so successful. He goes on to show how the very suitability of Hilbert spaces for modeling the quantum world gives rise to deep problems of interpretation, and makes suggestions about how they can be overcome.

Book Synopsis Physical Reality and Mathematical Description by : C.P. Enz
Download or read book Physical Reality and Mathematical Description written by C.P. Enz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays is intended as a tribute to Josef Maria Jauch on his sixtieth birthd~. Through his scientific work Jauch has justly earned an honored name in the community of theo retical physicists. Through his teaching and a long line of dis tinguished collaborators he has put an imprint on modern mathema tical physics. A number of Jauch's scientific collaborators, friends and admirers have contributed to this collection, and these essays reflect to some extent Jauch's own wide interests in the vast do main of theoretical physics. Josef Maria Jauch was born on 20 September 1914, the son of Josef Alois and Emma (nee Conti) Jauch, in Lucerne, Switzerland. Love of science was aroused in him early in his youth. At the age of twelve he came upon a popular book on astronomy, and an exam ple treated in this book mystified him. It was stated that if a planet travels around a centre of Newtonian attraction with a pe riod T, and if that planet were stopped and left to fall into the centre from any point of the circular orbit, it would arrive at the centre in the time T/I32. Young Josef puzzled about this for several months until he made his first scientific discovery : that this result could be derived from Kepler's third law in a quite elementary way.
Book Synopsis Reality Without Realism by : Arkady Plotnitsky
Download or read book Reality Without Realism written by Arkady Plotnitsky and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-01 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents quantum theory as a theory based on new relationships among matter, thought, and experimental technology, as against those previously found in physics, relationships that also redefine those between mathematics and physics in quantum theory. The argument of the book is based on its title concept, reality without realism (RWR), and in the corresponding view, the RWR view, of quantum theory. The book considers, from this perspective, the thinking of Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Dirac, with the aim of bringing together the philosophy and history of quantum theory. With quantum theory, the book argues, the architecture of thought in theoretical physics was radically changed by the irreducible role of experimental technology in the constitution of physical phenomena, accordingly, no longer defined independently by matter alone, as they were in classical physics or relativity. Or so it appeared. For, quantum theory, the book further argues, made us realize that experimental technology, beginning with that of our bodies, irreducibly shapes all physical phenomena, and thus makes us rethink the relationships among matter, thought, and technology in all of physics.
Book Synopsis Newton’s Scientific and Philosophical Legacy by : Paul B. Scheurer
Download or read book Newton’s Scientific and Philosophical Legacy written by Paul B. Scheurer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the Proceedings of the International Colloqui um "Newton's Scientific and Philosophical Legacy", that was held at the Catholic University of Nijmegen (The Netherlands) from June 9th to 12th 1987 to celebrate the Tercentenary of the publication of Newton's Philo sophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (1667). Although 1987 was a busy year for Newton scholars, we were happy that five of most prom inent among them were able to come to Nijmegen and speak on the vari ous aspects of Newton's thought. They are the Professors I. Bernard Cohen (Harvard), Gale Christianson (Indiana State), B.J. Dobbs (Northwestern), Richard H. Popkin (UCLA) and Mordechai Feingold (Boston University). No doubt, recent scholarship has put Newton's genius in a quite different perspective from the one that had come to make up what may be called Newtonian mythology. Although his achievements in the areas of mechanics, mathematics, and optics remain indisputed, Newton's scientific efforts were apparently entirely subordi nate to his religious beliefs. This volume has been divided into four parts, preceded by a Pream ble in which Prof. Christianson offers a vivid portrait of Newton as a per son. The first part deals with the science of Newton as he himself under stood that term. The second part considers the influence of Newton's work on later scientific developments. The third part deals primarily with the question of the methodological influence of Newton, and the last part with his more philosophical legacy. Two editorial remarks are due.
Book Synopsis The Role of Mathematics in Physical Sciences by : Giovanni Boniolo
Download or read book The Role of Mathematics in Physical Sciences written by Giovanni Boniolo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even though mathematics and physics have been related for centuries and this relation appears to be unproblematic, there are many questions still open: Is mathematics really necessary for physics, or could physics exist without mathematics? Should we think physically and then add the mathematics apt to formalise our physical intuition, or should we think mathematically and then interpret physically the obtained results? Do we get mathematical objects by abstraction from real objects, or vice versa? Why is mathematics effective into physics? These are all relevant questions, whose answers are necessary to fully understand the status of physics, particularly of contemporary physics. The aim of this book is to offer plausible answers to such questions through both historical analyses of relevant cases, and philosophical analyses of the relations between mathematics and physics.

Book excerpt: Keywords: Emergence, Consciousness, Systems Theory, Metaphysics, Epistemology, Artificial Intelligence, Language, Mathematics, Reality, Information Acknowledgement: PhilPapers, Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, Journal Philosophy Compass, Large Language Models "Metaphilosophizing" advocates for a holistic understanding of the world, breaking down traditional barriers between disciplines and encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration. It emphasizes the limitations of human knowledge and the need to embrace complexity and uncertainty in our pursuit of understanding reality. Ultimately, the work strives to develop new perspectives and frameworks that can deepen our comprehension of the world and our place within it. Part 1 - Foundations: The Transformer Model & Systems Theory Exploring the Transformer Model: The initial chapters delve into the Transformer AI model, highlighting its ability to extract meaning from complex language spaces, particularly its effectiveness in handling long sequences and uncovering hidden patterns. Connections to Systems Theory: The analysis then connects the Transformer model to key concepts within General Systems Theory. This includes exploring aspects like emergence, holons, heterarchy, feedback loops, and information flow within the model. Implications for Consciousness Studies: The initial section concludes by proposing that understanding the Transformer model, particularly its ability to learn and adapt, could offer valuable insights into the nature of consciousness and potentially bridge the gap between machine intelligence and biological consciousness. Part 2 - Expanding Horizons: Linguistic Complexity and Beyond Philosophical Implications of Linguistic Complexity: This section explores the philosophical implications of linguistic complexity, focusing on molecular living systems and the Transformer AI model. It delves into the nature of meaning, intentionality, and the challenges of representing complex biological systems using formal languages. Sparse Transformer Models: A deep dive into sparse Transformer models and their connection to the philosophy of meaning, knowledge, language, and mind. Concepts like apperception, meaning spaces, pre-training, and the epistemological world are explored within the context of these models. Consciousness, Mind, and Computation: A detailed analysis of the relationship between consciousness, mind, computation, communication, and evolution. This section explores the role of routing, information processing, and various model architectures in the emergence of consciousness. It also emphasizes the importance of genericity and evolvability in consciousness models. Part 3 - Delving Deeper: Metamathematics, Truth, and Reality Fundamental Abstract Rule Space: This section proposes the existence of a fundamental abstract rule space underlying both mathematics and physical reality. It explores the implications of this concept for our understanding of consciousness, observers, and the nature of truth. Aesthetic and Institutional Dimensions of Art: An examination of the definition of art, its aesthetic and institutional dimensions, and its potential transhistorical characteristics. The essay explores the challenges of defining art while acknowledging its diverse manifestations across cultures and throughout history. Symbolic Expressions and Hierarchy in Metamathematics: This section explores the use of symbolic expressions and hierarchical structures in metamathematics, examining the potential for a unifying general theory of mathematics. Probabilities and Philosophical Claims: An investigation into the history and philosophy of probability, exploring different representations of probability and their implications for philosophical claims and arguments. Norms, Actions, and Knowledge: This section explores the concept of norms and their role in shaping knowledge, belief, and ethical action. Interwoven Fabric of Philosophy and Science: An examination of the relationship between philosophy of mathematics, metamathematics, proof theory, and natural sciences, highlighting the distinct approaches and differences between these fields. Part 4 - Contemporary Perspectives and Emerging Trends Epistemological Foundations: A comprehensive analysis of standpoint epistemology and its implications for understanding knowledge acquisition, justification, and the nature of epistemic authority. The essay examines the role of social and political factors in shaping knowledge and highlights the need for a more inclusive and equitable approach to epistemology. Quantum Errors and the Colors of Flowers: This section explores the philosophical implications of quantum errors and the colors of flowers, examining the intersection of science, perception, and philosophy. It discusses the limitations of human knowledge and understanding, and the importance of embracing uncertainty and imperfection. Emergence and the Mind-Body Problem: A deep dive into the concept of psychophysical emergence and its implications for understanding perception, consciousness, and the sense of self. It examines the bottom-up and top-down approaches to studying consciousness and highlights the importance of the unity of consciousness. Part 5 - Expanding Consciousness and Unifying Frameworks B-Theory of Time: A metaphysical analysis of the B-theory of time and its implications for understanding temporal ontology and the nature of reality. Axiology and Logic in Deontological Ethics: An exploration of the relationship between deontological ethics, axiology, and logic in ethical decision making. The paper highlights the importance of integrating these three fields for a more comprehensive approach to ethics. Challenging the Limits of Logic: This section delves into Gödel's incompleteness theorems and their profound implications for the foundations of mathematics, logic, and philosophy. The essay explores the limits of formal systems and the role of human intuition and creativity in mathematical discovery. Unifying Mathematical Systems: This section explores the power and versatility of category theory as a unifying framework for exploring the properties and relationships between different mathematical systems. Metaphilosophy and the Grand Unification: An examination of the role of metaphilosophy in the grand unification of mathematics, emphasizing the importance of understanding the nature of mathematical inquiry and the relationship between mathematics and other disciplines. Overall, "metaphilosophizing" encourages a holistic and interconnected view of the world, challenging traditional assumptions and fostering interdisciplinary dialogue. It emphasizes the importance of embracing complexity, uncertainty, and the limitations of human knowledge, while also seeking to develop new frameworks and perspectives that can expand our understanding of reality and our place within it.
