Inefetividade da Matemática

Resumo:

 

This article addresses the presupposition that mathematics is as effective as claimed and thus remove the quandary of Wigner's "miracle," leading to a non-Platonist viewpoint. Also revisits Hamming's four propositions and show how they may indeed largely explain that there is no miracle, given a reduced level of mathematical effectiveness.
