Hilbert’s sixth problem: the endless road to rigour

A Resolution to Hilberts First Problem

The continuum hypothesis (CH) is one of and if not the most important open problems in set theory, one that is important for both mathematical and philosophical reasons. The general problem is determining whether there is an infinite set of real numbers that cannot be put into one-to-one correspondence with the natural numbers or be put into one-to-one correspondence with the real numbers respe...

Hilbert ’ s Sixth Problem ∗

This talk will come in four parts. First, I will introduce the Riemann hypothesis (RH) as it was first introduced, using the Riemann zeta function, and discuss briefly its connection to number theory and prime numbers. Second, I will make this connection explicit by discussion a famous problem equivalent to RH. Third, I will examine the generalised Riemann hypothesis (GRH) and, finally, will li...

Endless Resistance. Endless Antibiotics?

The practice of medicine was profoundly transformed by the introduction of the antibiotics (compounds isolated from Nature) and the antibacterials (compounds prepared by synthesis) for the control of bacterial infection. As a result of the extraordinary success of these compounds over decades of time, a timeless biological activity for these compounds has been presumed. This presumption is no l...

این رساله به مساله احتجاب الهی و مشکلات برهان مبتنی بر این مساله میپردازد. مساله احتجاب الهی مساله ای به قدمت ادیان است که به طور خاصی در مورد ادیان ابراهیمی اهمیت پیدا میکند. در ادیان ابراهیمی با توجه به تعالی خداوند و در عین حال خالقیت و حضور او و سخن گفتن و ارتباط شهودی او با بعضی از انسانهای ساکن زمین مساله ای پدید میاید با پرسشهایی از قبیل اینکه چرا ارتباط مستقیم ویا حداقل ارتباط وافی به ب...
