Personal Interest in Doctoral Thesis Topic Most Important for Confidence in Successful Defence
A researcher at HSE University analysed data on 1,539 doctoral students from 161 Russian universities to identify which features of a thesis topic are associated with academic success and engagement. The most important factor was found to be personal interest in the research topic, which was associated with almost all key aspects of doctoral programme experience—from engaging with the academic supervisor to research activity and confidence about successfully defending the thesis. The findings have been published in Higher Education.

Критика концепции математической вселенной М. Тегмарка с точки зрения современных дискуссий в философии физики и философии математики

Метаморфозис. 2023. Т. 7. № 1. С. 5–25.
Ауман А. А.

The aim of the paper is to interpret M. Tegmark’s concept of the mathematical universe. The first part of the paper describes the development of the concept. Main ontological features are provided and analyzed using the ontic structural realism and mathematical platonism frameworks. Tegmark combines radically some of the aspects of these frameworks. The second part of the paper is the critical analysis which shows that the strongest side of the Tegmark’s concept is the appeal to the invariance of the structures. Still, his theory is internally inconsistent and is not integrated into modern discussions on unobservable objects in Philosophy of Science. The paper demonstrates the importance of the philosophical interpretation and analysis of popular science physical theories within the discussion of reality’s nature.

Research target: Philosophy, Ethics, and Religious Studies
Language: Russian
