摘要
数学基础的研究,形成了逻辑主义、形式主义和直觉主义三大学派,其运用理性主义构造数学,认为数学是一个欧几里得系统.拉卡托斯通过对三大学派所做工作分析之后,认为数学是一个拟经验系统,数学的真理性是被"说明",而不是被"证明"的,它的发展模式是:问题———猜测———反驳,数学理论具有可证伪性.由理性主义到经验主义是现代数学哲学研究的历史走向,这种走向表明数学在不断追求完美与和谐.
The research of the foundations of mathematics falls into three schools of thought: logicism, formalism and intuitionism. They constitute mathematics by means of rationalism and maintain that mathematics is a Euclidean system. After analyzing the results of the three schools of thought, Lakatos holds that mathematics is a pseudo-empirical system. Its truthfulness is explained rather than proved, and its development mode is: problem-conjecture-refutation. And the mathematical theories have falsifiability. The historical trend of mathematical philosophy is from rationalism to empiricism, which indicates that mathematics is going on pursuing perfection as well as harmony.
