Call for abstracts
The FilMat network promotes the philosophy of mathematics within and outside Italy, fostering cooperation among scholars worldwide and supporting young researchers. After a pilot conference (Scuola Normale Superiore, Pisa 2012), three biennial major conferences (San Raffaele, Milan, 2014; Chieti-Pescara, 2016; Mussomeli, Sicily, 2018) and two graduate conference (Trento, 2017; San Raffaele, Milan, 2019), the network is now advertising its fourth international conference, jointly organized by IUSS Pavia and SNS Pisa, to be hosted at IUSS Pavia.


NB: We expect to hold the conference in person, unless the public health situation in Italy changes and imposes or recommends to hold it remotely.

We expect to host approximately 15 contributed talks by speakers of any nationality (selected by double-blind refereeing). Submissions of original contributions are invited in any area of the philosophy of mathematics, especially if connected with the following topics:

- varieties of mathematical foundationalism
- at the roots of foundations: novel perspective on classical debates
- abstractive, implicit, and axiomatic definitions
- the logical, epistemological and metaphysical role of mathematical definitions
- logical and metalogical properties of axiom systems
- evidence, certainty and basic logico-mathematical truths
- alternative axioms systems and mathematical multiverse
- axioms, consistency and paradoxes
- axiomatic theories and non-classical logics
- foundationalism and mathematical practice
- definitions and numerical cognition
- logical and mathematical pluralism
- philosophical methodology and theory-choice in logic and mathematics

Submissions by young scholars are especially welcome.
