Philosophy of science (and more)

General essays in logic, history and philosophy of sciences

I am currently doing a master’s degree in logic, history and philosophy of sciences. You can find here some of my short essays:

• Philosophy of modal logic (french). On Fitch’s paradox of Knowability in epistemic logic.
• Philosophy of logic (french). On the links between logic and mathematics through the points of view of Henri Poincaré and Egbertus Jan Brouwer.
• Philosophy of mathematics (french). On the role of pictures in mathematical proofs.
• Philosophy of mathematics (french). On the identity of indescirnables in mathematical structuralism.
• Philosophy of physics (french). On the inevitability of Copenhagen interpration of Quantum mechanics in the light of the existence of De-Broglie Bohm theory.
• Philosophy of physics (french). On the role of experiment to probe physical hypothesis.
• Philosophy of AI (french). On the ethics of artificial intelligence in contemporary society.
• Philosophy of biology (french). On the cellular theory in biology.
• Philosophy and history of biology (french). On the generation theories in biology.

• History and sociology of physics (french): On the use of PHD defense reports as proxies of the norms of science.

On Gauge theories

I wrote a thesis on the interpretations of gauge theories and gauge interpretation of gravity and possible geometrisation of Yang-Mills theories rooted in differential geometry. A temporary version can be found here, and I am currently revising it for publication.

Here are also some of my first writing related to this topic:

• History of geodesic curves from the end of the XVIIIth to the beggining of the XIXth century (french).
• History of connections and gauge theories in the XXth century (french). An attempted translation in english can be found here.
