On questions about the nature of mathematical proof raised by the increasing use of computers.
The increasing use of computers both within mathematics and to automate mathematical reasoning has raised new questions about the nature of mathematical proof. This meeting will present and contrast the different viewpoints, including: experimental mathematics vs mathematical rigor, automated vs human proofs and formal vs rigorous arguments. What role does proof play in the way mathematicians learn and think?
