Abstract

Learning theoretic aspects of mathematics and logic have been studied by many authors. They study how mathematical and logical objects are algorithmically "learned" (inferred) from finite data. Although the subjects of studies are mathematical objects, the objective of the studies are learning. In this paper, a mathematics of which foundation itself is learning theoretic will be introduced. It is called Limit-Computable Mathematics. It was originally introduced as a means for "Proof Animation," which is expected to make interactive formal proof development easier. Although the original objective was not learning theoretic at all, learning theory is indispensable for our research.
