摘 要:
The nature of mathematical truth has been the subject of intensive research from both the mathematical and philosophical points of view for more than a hundred years. Despite significant advances, it is not clear that we are closer to the ultimate answer than when the subject was first raised. This talk surveys the milestones that led to the current state of knowledge and discusses the key issues and questions that are of major interest.
