SUMMARY:Axiomatic Thinking, Lisbon, Portugal
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20171011
DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20171014
LOCATION:Lisbon, Portugal
DESCRIPTION:100 years ago, in 1917 David Hilbert g
 ave his seminal talk Axiomatisches Denken at a mee
 ting of the Swiss Mathematical Society in Zurich. 
 It marks the beginning of Hilbert's return to his 
 foundational studies, which ultimately resulted in
  the establishment of proof theory as a new branch
  in the emerging field of mathematical logic.  The
  aim of this conference is to reevaluate the succe
 ss of Hilbert's axiomatic method, which did not on
 ly lay the foundations for the understanding of mo
 dern mathematics, but which also found its way in 
 many applications, first of all - and as vividly a
 dvocated by Hilbert - in Physics.  On Wednesday 11
 , the conference will take place in the beautiful 
 main hall of Academia das Ciências de Lisboa. That
  day is fully dedicated to the Foundations of Math
 ematics. For the remaining days, the conference mo
 ves to the campus of Faculdade de Ciências e Tecno
 logia of Universidade Nova de Lisboa (across from 
 the Tagus river), and the topic of the conference 
 widens to other aspects of Axiomatic Thinking, not
  only in Mathematics but also in Physics and other
  fields of science. Also, philosophical and method
 ological aspects of Axiomatic Thinking will be dis
 cussed.
