Proceedings of the 11th Asian Logic Conference

The Asian Logic Conference is part of the series of logic conferences inaugurated in Singapore in 1981. It is normally held every three years and rotates among countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The 11th Asian Logic Conference is held in the National University of Singapore, in honour of Professor Chong Chitat on the occasion of his 60th birthday. The conference is on the broad area of logic, including theoretical computer science. It is considered a major event in this field and is regularly sponsored by the Association of Symbolic Logic. This volume contains papers from this meeting.

Infinity and Truth

This volume is based on the talks given at the Workshop on Infinity and Truth held at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, National University of Singapore, from 25 to 29 July 2011. The chapters cover topics in mathematical and philosophical logic that examine various aspects of the foundations of mathematics. The theme of the volume focuses on two basic foundational questions: (i) What is the nature of mathematical truth and how does one resolve questions that are formally unsolvable within the Zermelo–Fraenkel Set Theory with the Axiom of Choice, and (ii) Do the discoveries in mathematics provide evidence favoring one philosophical view over others? These issues are discussed from th...

Slicing the Truth

This book is a brief and focused introduction to the reverse mathematics and computability theory of combinatorial principles, an area of research which has seen a particular surge of activity in the last few years. It provides an overview of some fundamental ideas and techniques, and enough context to make it possible for students with at least a basic knowledge of computability theory and proof theory to appreciate the exciting advances currently happening in the area, and perhaps make contributions of their own. It adopts a case-study approach, using the study of versions of Ramsey's Theorem (for colorings of tuples of natural numbers) and related principles as illustrations of various as...

Computational Prospects of Infinity - Part I

This volume presents the written versions of the tutorial lectures given at the Workshop on Computational Prospects of Infinity, held from 18 June to 15 August 2005 at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, National University of Singapore. It consists of articles by four of the leading experts in recursion theory (computability theory) and set theory. The survey paper of Rod Downey provides a comprehensive introduction to algorithmic randomness, one of the most active areas of current research in recursion theory. Theodore A Slaman's article is the first printed account of the ground-breaking work of Slaman-Woodin and Slaman-Shore on the definability of the Turing jump. John Steel present...
