Problems and prospects for formal proofs

Mathematical argumentation provides a rich resource for formalization efforts. In this talk, I will discuss some of the problems and prospects for the formalization of mathematical knowledge and argumentation, and its relationship to other problems in artificial intelligence, based on my own dissertation work and plans for further research in this area.
