Description

Explore the foundational evolution of mathematical thought with Real Numbers, Generalizations of the Reals, and Theories of Continua. Published as part of the Synthese Library (volume 242) by Springer, this work examines the Cantor-Dedekind theory of real numbers and the philosophy of the continuum that became pillars of standard mathematical philosophy since the late 19th century. This text provides a deep look into the various alternative theories of real numbers and corresponding theories of continua that emerged during the same era. It covers essential topics including non-Archimedean geometry, non-standard analysis, and important generalizations of the real number system. Readers will find a detailed examination of arithmetic continua and the historical development of these mathematical structures. This book is a significant resource for those studying the history and philosophy of science, offering a comprehensive view of how different mathematical systems have shaped our understanding of the continuum.
