Research
My research combines the philosophy of mathematics with history and "practice" of mathematics. In a recent article Philosophy of mathematical practice - motivations, themes and prospects I characterise this recent part of philosophy. I have in particular contributed to two areas: visual thinking and structuralism in mathematics.
Areas of expertise
- Philosophy of Mathematical Practice
- Visual thinking in mathematics
- Mathematical structuralism
- Peirce's mathematical philosophy
