Je suis Professeur au Département d'Histoire et Philosophie des Sciences de l'Université Paris Cité, directeur de ce département, membre de SPHERE et directeur du Groupe de Recherche en Philosophie des mathématiques (PhilMath).

Je travaille en logique et en philosophie des mathématiques.

Recent work:

Geometric Modal Logic (Notre Dame Journal of Formal Logic 64/3): combines modal logic and Riemannian geometry, in connection with a work in progress on iterated modalities (what does it mean to say, for instance, that "another possible is possible"?).

Context-dependence and descent theory (forthcoming): applying some concepts of Grothendieck's mathematics to philosophy of language.

Generality and genericity: a talk, also a book project.

NEW: Context-sensitivity in Language: A Logical Analysis, a book drawn from my habilitation thesis, will be published next year by Cambridge UP.
