\nThe abstract character of mathematics raises difficult philosophical questions as to the nature and existence of mathematical entities\, such as numbers\, functions\, sets\, groups\, graphs\, and number systems. \; This conference will explore such questions from the perspective of two different traditional approaches\, viz. &ldquo\;mathematical structuralism&rdquo\; and &ldquo\;mathematical fictionalism&rdquo\;. The main objective of the conference is to re-evaluate these perspectives and to consider the relationship between them. \; Specifically\, the following research questions will be addressed in the conference:
\n- Do either structuralism or fictionalism offer a philosophically viable foundation for modern mathematics?
\n- To what extent are structuralism and fictionalism faithful to mathematical practice?
\n- What are the connections between the structuralist and fictionalist approaches to the philosophy of mathematics?
\n- How do mathematicians think about meaning\, reference\, and truth in mathematics?
\nParticipation Cost:  \; Free admission. Everybody is welcome. \; \;
\nCall for Abstracts:  \; We invite the submission of abstracts\, suitable for a 60 minute talk (including time for questions)\, on topics related to structuralism and fictionalism in the philosophy of mathematics\, including mathematical practice. \; Please send an abstract of around 1000-1500 words by email to john.wigglesworth@york.ac.uk in PDF format. \; Abstracts should be prepared for blind review. \; The author&rsquo\;s name\, paper title\, institutional affiliation\, and contact details should be included in the body of the email. \; Some priority will be given to early career researchers\, including PhD students. \; If you believe you fall into this category\, please indicate this in your submission email.  \;
\nSpeakers will be invited to contribute papers to a peer-reviewed special issue of Philosophia Mathematica on topics related to structuralism and fictionalism in the philosophy of mathematics and mathematical practice. \; \;

\nOur up-coming uAnalytiCon-2024 will focus on reference and objecthood. The connection between these concepts can be found throughout the history of analytic philosophy and can be traced back to Gottlob Frege. During the conference\, we will pay special attention to Kit Fine's naive metaphysics and the theory of variable objects as well as to Leon Horsten's account of arbitrary objects. In order to analyze reasoning\, explain how language works and develop a structuralist philosophy of mathematics\, they both propose the metaphysics of arbitrary objects. According to Frege\, the use of variables presupposes the indeterminacy of reference\, but the objects being the value of variables appear quite definite and concrete. Fine and Horsten challenge this view and transfer the indeterminacy from the reference to the objects themselves. The nature of arbitrary objects is the source of so-called afthairetic modality\, which can be understood as the possibility of an object to take one or another value. On Horsten&rsquo\;s view\, this kind of modality is a sui generis modality. Thus\, an arbitrary object is an abstract entity\, which can be in the state of being a concrete object but cannot be a particular one.
\nAt uAnalytiCon-2024\, we will reflect on the difference between naive metaphysics and fundamental metaphysics as well as their methodological principles\, the concepts of reference and objecthood\, the definition and status of arbitrary objects\, and possible applications of the relevant approaches.
\nKey speaker: Leon Horsten\, University of Konstanz

We do not welcome the military solutions of any conflict and want to express our empathy and condolences to all the victims and their families\, no matter which side they are on now. We consider it harmful to divide the research community along any lines\, including national and political ones.

The advanced ERC project &ldquo\;C-FORS: Construction in the Formal Sciences&rdquo\; led by Professor Ø\;ystein Linnebo (University of Oslo) is glad to announce its first graduate conference. The topic is constructional approaches to foundations of mathematics and philosophy.
By &ldquo\;constructional approach&rdquo\; we mean a way to account for a domain of objects by successively constructing its members. The inspiring example for these methods is the famous Iterative Conception of Set\, which states that sets are &ldquo\;formed&rdquo\; successively by iterated applications of the operation &ldquo\;set of&rdquo\; (to use Gö\;del&rsquo\;s terms). The aim of C-FORS is to extend the approach exemplified by the Iterative Conception &mdash\; which has proven to be quite successful as a natural guard against paradoxes and in justifying the axioms of ZFC &mdash\; to other formal disciplines. In particular\, in the foundations of mathematics the aim of C-FORS is to extend the iterative account of sets to other mathematical entities\, such as classes or other intensional objects. On the other hand\, in formal philosophy\, the aim is to develop constructional approaches that account for hierarchies of higher-order entities and of truth predicates.
The aim of the conference is to bring together graduate students working in the Philosophy of Mathematics and Logic\, in Metaphysics and in Ontology and that are interested in (or critical of) constructional (i.e.\, iterative or hierarchical) accounts in these disciplines. Beside the current members of C-FORS\, the discussion shall be guided by the two invited keynotes\, Joel David Hamkins (Notre Dame) and Jon Erling Litland (UT Austin)\, who are both leading experts on topics relevant to the main theme of the conference. In addition\, the conference involves the assignment of a commentator to lead the discussion on the contributed talk by each participant. Comments will be provided by three scholars that are also experts in their fields\, namely Deborah Kant (Hamburg)\, Sam Roberts (Konstanz) and Chris Scambler (Oxford).
The conference will take place on 19-20 June 2024 at the Department of Philosophy\, Classics\, History of Art and Ideas at University of Oslo (Blindern Campus).
Graduate students and early-career researchers (within one year from completion of their PhD) are invited to submit abstracts (up to 1500 words) on the subject of the conference and prepared for blind review. We particularly encourage submissions from underrepresented groups. The proposals should be suitable for a 35-40 minute presentation. The conference is intended to be in-person.
We can also offer a limited number of travel bursaries up to 3.000 NOK to be awarded to student presenters at the conference\, so make sure that you indicate your interest for them in the Google form if you want to be considered.

\nForcing is\, arguably\, one of the greatest milestones achieved within set theory. Despite its being around for roughly 60 years\, the technique introduced by Paul Cohen has not been deeply studied by philosophers of mathematics. The topic sparked some serious interest only in the last few of years. The latest developments of a modal analysis of forcing and of set-theoretic multiversism due to Joel David Hamkins and Benedikt Lö\;we generated a new philosophical interest for forcing\, which brought out very deep philosophical questions on the nature of the set-theoretical universe. Moreover\, the surge of set-theoretic potentialism in the philosophy of set theory made forcing an essential tool for a potentialist account of the infinite.
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn light of the new philosophical interest sparked around the topic in the last years\, the first ForcingFest will deal with forcing (with posets) and its philosophical applications. The goal is to foster interaction between junior researchers and leading scholars in this new area of research that we may call "Philosophy of Forcing". The expected outcome of the course is twofold: on the one hand\, participants are expected to get acknowledged with the basics of forcing in a way that is more suited for philosophers\, with links to areas (such as modal logic) that are more familiar to them\; on the other hand\, the philosophy-driven exposition of the topic aims at highlighting the philosophical interest of the issues that forcing aims at solving.
