In this note some philosophical thoughts and observations about mathematics are expressed, arranged as challenges to some common claims.
This is a short apology of the style of the Elements by Euclid and Bourbaki.
This article is an invitation to read a famous text of Roger Ap{\'e}ry, "Math{\'e}matique constructive", published in the book "Penser les math{\'e}matiques: s{\'e}minaire de philosophie et math{\'e}matiques de l'{\'E}cole normale…
An opiniated essay on what pure mathematics is and why the adjective "pure" in "pure mathematics" is not a good choice.
Remarks on mathematical proof and the practice of mathematics.
Twelve well known `Recreational' numbers are generalized and classified in three generalized types Hardy, Dudeney, and Wells. A novel proof method to limit the search for the numbers is exemplified for each of the types. Combinatorial…

This paper examines various methods and ideas for humanizing mathematics. The term 'humanizing mathematics' which includes elements of 'aesthetic mathematics' refers to approaches that emphasize the aesthetic, philosophical, and subjective…
I discuss some problems related to extreme mathematical realism, focusing on a recently proposed "shut-up-and-calculate" approach to physics (arXiv:0704.0646, arXiv:0709.4024). I offer arguments for a moderate alternative, the essence of…

This article discusses epistemological problems in the philosophy of mathematics and issues concerning the reliability of the mathematical literature.
This paper has been withdrawn by the authors, because it has been made obsolete by the detailed expositions in our papers in arXiv:0812.4885 (the mathematics part) and arXiv:0812.4737 (the economics part).
In this article, we give a short proof of Hardy's inequality for Hermite expansions of functions in the classical Hardy spaces $H^p({\mathbb R^n})$, by using an atomic decomposition of the Hardy spaces associated with the Hermite operators.…
This article was written on the occasion of Hans Grauert receiving the Cantor Medallion of the Deutsche Mathematische Vereinigung. It is a brief overview of his mathematical contributions and attempts to convey the author's great respect…
A classical probabilistic explanation for Hardy's quantum paradox is demonstrated.
A refinement of the Hardy inequality has been presented by use of superquadratic function.
