Abstract

According to E. Grosholz, there is a phenomenon called `productive ambiguity' which plays a very important role in mathematics, and the sciences, because it is instrumental to the resolution of many open questions. The main task of this paper is that of assessing Grosholz's claim with regard to mathematics.
