Sir


Thank you for your letter which opens a debate. I would like to make one response to what it is, in my report mathematics and reality. When
I8? 7 Cantor unlike what he and his colleagues believed, demonstrated that there is a bijection between the right and the plan, supported his demonstration of a figure. I1 "sees" this bijection. He wrote to Dedekind, June 29 of that year, two or three days after having forwarded his discovery: "This
I've recently communicated to me is even if unexpected, so again, I could not say so to reach a some peace of mind until I have received honored friend, your opinion on its accuracy, as ye have not approved, I can only say: I see but I do not think so. "
The question of what he does not believe, based on what is illusion. We can say that what distinguishes the source of magic, conjuring, it is just an illusion. If you believe, and we must believe as hard as iron, it's magic. Otherwise, i `s handling is: we know that there is a trick but we do not see. Which is unveiled at Cantor Dedekind this thing by writing: "All authors have obviously made the tacit assumption, quite natural for a redetermination of the points of a continuous manifold using new coordinates , they must also be continuous functions. This formula
Cantor: "I see but I do not think so" seems very strange. Indeed, usually, one wants to see. In? Insurance this year, a chapel was closed (by the priest) as the sun set on the windows projected onto the wall a shadow
that the villagers and those from the neighborhood, took him for an apparition of the Blessed Virgin. If it's a collective pareidolia, note that in reaching this extreme you have to believe (in the Virgin Mary) to see her, and that the adage that everyone should see it to believe it seems somewhat inadequate.
illusion leads to creation. Nothing is simple, can the mathematician has the power to create mathematical entities, which will become part of mathematical reality, moreover, by means of a symbol.
The problem of creation / illusion is illuminated Winnicott. The question, he writes, a mother to her child never ask about an object transitionel is: "This object, you have created, or was there already?". And elsewhere: "There is a moment of illusion, a fragment of experience that is regarded as his own hallucination thing belonging to external reality."
It seems to me that this mathematical approach to work, at any level, with reference to the concepts introduced by Winnicott in particular can help to understand and explain many facts related to mathematics, especially what it is mathematical relationships / Realta. The issue eg postulate of Euclid (its dependence compared to others. Axioms) that came into physical reality is therefore that we believe.

I believe we must consider the mathematical activity as a playground located between external reality and the perceived ob ectively "extensions of the self", ie subjective objects. Envous thanks, I beg you to believe Mr. my best feelings.
