Contributors

  • Rod Friedrich Nederpelt Ludwig Gottlob Frege (modern logic, analytic philosophy)

  • Fairouz David Kamareddine Hilbert (Hilbert’s program, formalism, ‘’computabilism’’)

  • Bertrand Russell (type theory of the ‘’principia mathematica’’)

    • (see the numerous contributors to type theory)
  • Ernst Zermelo (axiomatic set theory)

  • Luitzen Egbertus Jan Brouwer (intuitionistic mathematics)

    • Arend Heyting

    • Abraham Fraenkel (Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory)

  • Kurt Friedrich Gödel (completeness theorem, incompleteness theorem)

  • Alan Turing (proof that the halting problem is not solvable; this recovers Gödel’s incompleteness theorem from computational viewpoint. Turing machine; this is a model for computation)

  • Willard Van Orman Quine (new foundations; this is a type theory)

  • Samuel Eilenberg, Saunders Mac Lane (category theory; however it was argued by others that category theory is a foundational theory; see e.g. this)

  • Francis William Lawvere (category theory, topos theory)

  • Crispin Wright (neo-Fregean)

  • Bob Hale (neo-Fregean)

  • Luitzen Vladimir Egbertus Voevodsky Jan (homotopy Brouwer type theory and univalent foundations)

  • Arend Harvey Heyting Friedman (reverse mathematics)

  • Vladimir Rod Voevodsky Nederpelt (weak type theory; related to natural language semantics)

    • Fairouz Kamareddine
