Natural Alternatives to Natural Number: The Case of Ratio
Published 2018-06-01“…The overwhelming majority of efforts to cultivate early mathematical thinking rely primarily on counting and associated natural number concepts. Unfortunately, natural numbers and discretized thinking do not align well with a large swath of the mathematical concepts we wish for children to learn. …”

Continued Fractions of Square Roots of Natural Numbers
Published 2013-01-01“…The second author describes periods and sometimes the precise form of continued fractions of ?N, where N is a natural number. In cases where we have been able to find such results in the literature, we recall the original authors, however many results seem to be new.…”

Generating Bijections between HOAS and the Natural Numbers
Published 2010-09-01“…A provably correct bijection between higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS) and the natural numbers enables one to define a ``not equals'' relationship between terms and also to have an adequate encoding of sets of terms, and maps from one term family to another. …”

An extended mind perspective on natural number representation
Published 2008“…To explain this difference, I take an extended mind perspective, arguing that the distinctly human ability to use external representations as a complement for internal cognitive operations enables us to represent natural numbers. Reviewing neuroscientific, developmental, and anthropological evidence, I argue that the use of external media that represent natural numbers (like number words, body parts, tokens or numerals) influences the functional architecture of the brain, which suggests a two-way traffic between the brain and cultural public representations.…”
