Welcome! This is an experiment, a shared notepad on mathematical topics in the scientific study of consciousness.
Much like our idol, the [https://ncatlab.org/ nLab], the idea is that this wiki offers could offer a space for us to share notes, thoughts, definitions and ideas. It is dedicated primarily to formal/mathematical topics in the scientific study of consciousness, but topics from philosophy, neuroscience and other disciplines are very welcome as well. Throughout the beginning stages of this experiment, you're encouraged to submit summaries of your own scientific work on the topic.
For the time being, Our [[Main Authors]] page lists all those which have made a noteworthy contribution to this wiki is private, so that only registered users known personally to some of the existing users can read and edit. We would like 're very much looking forward to make it as easy as possible for registered users to contribute, and explicitly encourage posting of preliminary thoughts and partial summaries. If the experiment works, even preliminary pages will improve over time when several different people contribute.expanding this list! :-)

== Goals ==
This wiki's The overall goal of this experiment is to catalyse exchange between researchers who are working on mathematical approaches in the scientific study of consciousness, and to help make good science possible. The hope is that it this wiki can be both a resource for information concerning formal approaches, but and eventually maybe also a place where ideas can be exchanged. It's basically just a big community notebook.
Here are a few examples of the kind of posts that are very welcome:
* Posts on concepts that are used in the scientific study of consciousness, which summarize parts of the literature, collect various conceptions or say something on how this something could best be formalized.
* Posts which review the essential formal structure of existing theories of consciousness.
* Posts which outline research projects that are being carried out.
On == Guidelines == For now, the long runonly guidelines should be the usual ''friendliness'', an ''open-minded atmosphere'' and, most of all, we hope this helps to establish a more unique convention on how to name things in mathematical research that is related the ''dedication to the high scientific study of consciousnessquality''.Here are a few additional thoughts:
== Existing entries ==* '''Your contributions don't have to be perfect.''' The nice thing about community projects is that others might add to your initial notes, improving your presentation and clarifying the concepts. So if you feel the urge to add something, don't hesitate to do so even if your text is not polished up. Our major goal is to have high scientific standards of quality, but this is fully compatible with initial presentations being preliminary and incomplete.
Finally* If you see something wrong or imprecise on a page, here simply change it. If there is an automated list something substantial you don't agree with, briefly check the "Discussion" tab at the top of existing entries in this wiki. You can also check the [[Special:RecentChanges]] page to see recent modificationsif this matter has been discussed before. And you can click on If not, simply change the tiny star right next to content of the "edit" button page to watch a page, i.ewhat you think is correct. Please also don't forget to get notifications provide summaries of your changes in the corresponding summary field in case it an edit is being changed. To create a new page, simply type the name into the search bar above and click on the name to create the pagenot minor.
{{Special:Allpages}}* We'd like to emphasize that this wiki shouldn't be a place where people "sell" their own work. You're very much invited to create summaries of your work and refer to it on relevant pages, but that should be within the usual reasonable limits.
== Users ==While the wiki We remark that in case there is privatean excessive violation of guidelines from some account, let's it might have a short list of usersto be deactivated. This is so in particular if an account repeatedly posts wrong or misleading information (confusing or invalid ways to think about concepts, e. Please add yourselfg. You can add a brief description of yourself on your user page, in case you like).

For now, everybody with at least five published papers (any discipline) is invited to join this wiki. Simply send an email to ''seminar at math-consciousness dot org''. In case you're a PhD student, you're welcome to join as well. Please send us an email with a brief summary of the content you would like to provide initially (or the changes you would like to make to existing content).
== Issues ==
A place to collect In case you experience any technical issues with , please send us an email (cf. above) and/or click "edit" and add it to the wiki that need list below.* There still seem to be resolvedcases of session data being lost upon submitting content. Please add any issue belowJohannes is working on fixing this== Wishlist ==Is there some gadget from other wikis which you would like to have here as well? Or some page about a particular topic?
