In this one-hour Oxford Seminar, Tim Hosgood from the Topos Institute explores the challenges and potential solutions for open translations in mathematics. Discover how community-driven approaches might address translation needs without disadvantaging non-native English speakers or causing the collapse of mathematical discourse in non-English languages. Learn from Hosgood's experiences with large-scale open-source translation projects, including the technologies, methodologies, and challenges encountered. The presentation also covers resources that could benefit future translation efforts and aims to spark community discussion about potential collaborative projects. This talk repeats content previously presented at the Isaac Newton Institute and offers valuable insights for mathematicians interested in making mathematical knowledge more accessible across language barriers.
