Abstract: In his Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting the Reason,
and Seeking Truth in the Sciences, Rene Descartes sought \clear and
certain knowledge of all that is useful in life." Almost three centuries
later, in \The foundations of mathematics," David Hilbert tried to
\recast mathematical denitions and inferences in such a way that
they are unshakable." Hilbert's program relied explicitly on formal
systems (equivalently, computational systems) to provide certainty in
mathematics. The... (Update)
