The document discusses mathematical activity involving the discovery of properties of abstract objects using pure reason to prove them, where these objects consist of abstractions from nature or entities with stipulated properties called axioms, and a proof consists of applying deductive rules to previously established theorems, axioms, or basic properties considered true starting points.

Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of


properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason
to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions
from nature or—in modern mathematics—entities that
are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A
proof consists of a succession of applications of deductive
rules to already established results. These results include
previously proved theorems, axioms, and—in case of
abstraction from nature—some basic properties that are
considered true starting points of the theory under
consideration.[5]
