“There are various attempts in the literature to clarify what it means for a mathematical result to be explanatory. For example, Kitcher [25] takes explanation to be theoretical unification, while Steiner [38] expects an explanatory proof to make use of a \u201ccharacteristic property\u201d of an object mentioned in the theorem in a certain way. (These and other approaches are nicely surveyed in [bibcite key=Man08].)” – [bibcite key=Avi1x], page 37 of the preprint.<\/p>\n
The topic is currently put forward by Paolo Mancosu [bibcite key=Man01,Man08] and one may ask whether H24 can be related to it in one or the other form.<\/p>\n
