- defrost 2y agoCrudely overviewing: Mathematics is seen a formally grown, logical system, that has features that are "discovered" rather than invented .. "Given some {X}, {Y} follows without question". However it rests(?) on Axiomatic foundations .. Most famously: https://www.sfu.ca/~swartz/euclid.htm https://www.sfu.ca/~swartz/euclid.htm It is understood that one can tweak an axiom, the fifth posulate for example, and get a different logical ediface - a non Euclidean hyperbolic geometry in that case.
