I am interested in new developments in the field of education. For example, has anyone (other than Lakoff and Nunez) used cognitive linguistics methodologies for the analysis of mathematics?
For the last ten years I have investigated symbolic and non-symbolic expressions in mathematics (and physics) hoping to find out what they suggest about human thought. For example, I am interested in the relationship between such concepts as magnitude and multitude or cardinals and ordinals; differences between differentiation and division or integration and addition; meaning of order as a hierarchy or as a sequence, and differences between intensity and extent or state and process; and so on – all considered from the cognitive point of view rather than that of mathematics or physics alone. I am looking for persons who have time to discuss these issues in some length.
