Lautman Conference
Posted by David Corfield
Just as I blog about Albert Lautman, a conference dedicated to his work comes along. Plenty of interesting looking talks there, including Fernando Zalamea’s “Transferts et obstructions en mathématiques, de Galois à Grothendieck: un parcours conceptuel minimal suivant le filtre de l’oeuvre de Lautman”.
Fernando wrote a favourable review of my book, and has himself written a book – Filosofia Sintetica de las
Matematicas Contemporaneas – to appear this year. If only my Spanish were better, or a translation were available.
