Eubulide is the italian version of the name of the greek philosopher Eubulides (no, he's not the one in the image, that's Socrates), the inventor on the liar paradox.
My main interestests are:
Mathematical Logic: Kurt Gödel.
Classical music: my favorite composers are Antonio Vivaldi and Joseph Haydn. And Jazz: Duke Ellington.
Judo: with particular attention to Kata.
[edit] Articles I have started
- The drinker paradox, a funny example of the use of formal mathematical logic.
- Most of the articles for the judo kata: Katame no kata, Kodokan Goshin Jutsu, Ju no Kata, Itsutsu no Kata, Koshiki no Kata, and Seiryoku Zen'yo Kokumin Taiiku no Kata (the article for the remaining two, Nage no kata and Kime no kata, already existed).
- The Naked Woman, a book by Desmond Morris.
- Bar induction, a reasoning principle in intuitionistic mathematics.
- Juditha triumphans, an oratorio by Antonio Vivaldi.
