Abstract
This article is a collection of letters solicited by the editors of the Bulletin in response to a previous article by Jaffe and Quinn [math.HO/9307227]. The authors discuss the role of rigor in mathematics and the relation between mathematics and theoretical physics.
Very pertinent given the current "AI misalignment" with Mathematics. Be sure to also read Jaffe and Quinn's ``Theoretical mathematics'': Toward a cultural synthesis of mathematics and theoretical physics referred to in the paper - https://arxiv.org/abs/math/9307227 Also see this…
