I identify three salient phases of mathematical problem-solving and adopt them as a reference frame to investigate aspects of applications that have not yet received extensive attention in the philosophical literature. date: 2021 type: Preprint type: NonPeerReviewed format: text language: en identifier: https://philsci-archive.pitt.edu/19501/1/Synthese.pdf identifier: Rizza, Davide (2021) Mathematical problem-solving in scientific practice.
