  1. Petrification in Contemporary Set Theory: The Multiverse and the Later Wittgenstein.José Antonio Pérez-Escobar, Colin Jakob Rittberg & Deniz Sarikaya - forthcoming - Kriterion – Journal of Philosophy.
    This paper has two aims. First, we argue that Wittgenstein’s notion of petrification can be used to explain phenomena in advanced mathematics, sometimes better than more popular views on mathematics, such as formalism, even though petrification usually suffers from a diet of examples of a very basic nature (in particular a focus on addition of small numbers). Second, we analyse current disagreements on the absolute undecidability of CH under the notion of petrification and hinge epistemology. We argue that in contemporary (...)

  • The Formal Layer of {Brain and Mind} and Emerging Consciousness in Physical Systems.Jerzy Król & Andrew Schumann - forthcoming - Foundations of Science:1-30.
    We consider consciousness attributed to systems in space-time which can be purely physical without biological background and focus on the mathematical understanding of the phenomenon. It is shown that the set theory based on sets in the foundations of mathematics, when switched to set theory based on ZFC models, is a very promising mathematical tool in explaining the brain/mind complex and the emergence of consciousness in natural and artificial systems. We formalise consciousness-supporting systems in physical space-time, but this is localised (...)
