Axis History and philosophy of mathematics

"Arabic" Mathematics 2016–2017


Organisation : Pascal Crozet (SPHERE), together with CEPERC



This monthly seminar will aim to invite researchers to come and present their work in progress or recently published that address the "Arab mathematics", understood in a broad sense to be studied not only mathematics itself, but science "mathematized" of the era, such as astronomy, optics and static ; Furthermore, we do not restrict themselves to only written in Arabic mathematics, but we can address their writings in other languages ​​extensions, like Latin, Hebrew and Farsi.
The texts studied will be discussed at sessions of three hours. Emphasis on reading and commenting on sources.
