Mark Colyvan receives funding from The Australian Research Council and from the Humboldt Foundation. The recent events surrounding Donald Trump’s first few weeks in the White House have left many ...

Godel’s theorems on the incompleteness and undecidability of mathematical systems are among the deepest and most significant discoveries of the 20 th century. They represent a dramatic failure of one ...

BERLIN, Oct. 23 (UPI) -- Scientists from Germany and Austria say they have proved a 20th century theorem that mathematics can be used to prove the existence of a higher being. Christoph Benzmueller of ...

As headlines go, it's certainly an eye-catching one. "Scientists Prove Existence of God," German daily Die Welt wrote last week. But unsurprisingly, there is a rather significant caveat to that claim.

A team of physicists claims to have killed the simulation hypothesis with math. According to Science Daily, researchers led by Dr. Mir Faizal at UBC Okanagan used Gödel's incompleteness theorem to ...

Scientists have “proven” God’s existence, at least in theory, by plugging in mathematician Kurt Godel’s philosophy on their MacBooks. As noted by Spiegel Online, however, what the two computer ...

In his last years, Albert Einstein was fond of saying that he went to his office on the Princeton University campus only for the privilege of walking home with Kurt Gödel. Among the foremost ...

We are sometimes inclined to make celebrities out of intellectuals despite—or perhaps precisely because of—their producing work we can never hope to understand. Bertrand Russell’s oddly old-fashioned ...

I’d like to add another interesting synthesis of logic and faith to Mike Kerrigan’s “God and Math at Dinner” (op-ed, Jan. 5). Gödel’s incompleteness theorems prove that certain mathematical methods ...
