Per Martin-Löf's work on the development of constructive type theory has been of huge significance in the fields of logic and the foundations of mathematics. It is also of broader philosophical significance, and has important applications in areas such as computing science and linguistics. This volume draws together contributions from researchers whose work builds on the theory developed by Martin-Löf over the last twenty-five years. As well as celebrating the anniversary of the birth of the subject it covers many of the diverse fields which are now influenced by type theory. It is an invaluable record of areas of current activity, but also contains contributions from N. G. de Bruijn and William Tait, both important figures in the early development of the subject. Also published for the first time is one of Per Martin-Löf's earliest papers.
In Logical Frameworks, Huet and Plotkin gathered contributions from the first International Workshop on Logical Frameworks. This volume has grown from the second workshop, and as before the contributions are of the highest calibre. Four main themes are covered: the general problem of representing formal systems in logical frameworks, basic algorithms of general use in proof assistants, logical issues, and large-scale experiments with proof assistants.
Increasingly, the European Union and its member states have exhibited a lack of commitment to protecting the human rights of non-citizens. Thinking beyond the oppressive bordering taking place in Europe requires new forms of scholarship. This book provides such examples, offering the analytical lenses of memory and temporality. It also identifies ways of collaborating with people who experience the violence of borders. Established scholars in fields such as history, anthropology, literary studies, media studies, migration and border studies, arts, and cultural studies offer important contributions to the so-called “European refugee crisis”.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications, TLCA 2007, held in Paris, France in June 2007 in conjunction with RTA 2007, the 18th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications as part of RDP 2007, the 4th International Conference on Rewriting, Deduction, and Programming. The 25 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 52 submissions. The papers present original research results that are broadly relevant to the theory and applications of typed calculi and address a wide variety of topics such as proof-theory, semantics, implementation, types, and programming.
THIRTY FIVE YEARS OF AUTOMATING MATHEMATICS: DEDICATED TO 35 YEARS OF DE BRUIJN'S AUTOMATH N. G. de Bruijn was a well established mathematician before deciding in 1967 at the age of 49 to work on a new direction related to Automating Mathematics. By then, his contributions in mathematics were numerous and extremely influential. His book on advanced asymptotic methods, North Holland 1958, was a classic and was subsequently turned into a book in the well known Dover book series. His work on combinatorics yielded influential notions and theorems of which we mention the de Bruijn-sequences of 1946 and the de Bruijn-Erdos theorem of 1948. De Bruijn's contributions to mathematics also included his...
Many researchers from different countries converged at the 10th Italian Conference on Theoretical Computer Science (ICTCS 2007) to discuss recent developments in theoretical computer science. The volume contains all contributed papers selected for presentation with the invited lectures delivered. The subjects of this book range from logical and mathematical aspects of computing, design and analysis of algorithms, to semantics of programming languages.
This volume - honoring the computer science pioneer Joseph Goguen on his 65th Birthday - includes 32 refereed papers by leading researchers in areas spanned by Goguen's work. The papers address a variety of topics from meaning, meta-logic, specification and composition, behavior and formal languages, as well as models, deduction, and computation, by key members of the research community in computer science and other fields connected with Joseph Goguen's work.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Rewriting Techniques and Applications, RTA 2002, held in Copenhagen, Denmark, in July 2002. The 20 regular papers, two application papers, and four system descriptions presented together with three invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 49 submissions. All current aspects of rewriting are addressed.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications, TLCA '97, held in Nancy, France, in April 1997. The 24 revised full papers presented in the book were carefully selected from a total of 54 submissions. The book reports the main research advances achieved in the area of typed lambda calculi since the predecessor conference, held in 1995, and competently reflects the state of the art in the area.
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 24th International Workshop on Computer Science Logic, CSL 2010, held in Brno, Czech Republic, in August 2010. The 33 full papers presented together with 7 invited talks, were carefully reviewed and selected from 103 submissions. Topics covered include automated deduction and interactive theorem proving, constructive mathematics and type theory, equational logic and term rewriting, automata and games, modal and temporal logic, model checking, decision procedures, logical aspects of computational complexity, finite model theory, computational proof theory, logic programming and constraints, lambda calculus and combinatory logic, categorical logic and topological semantics, domain theory, database theory, specification, extraction and transformation of programs, logical foundations of programming paradigms, verification and program analysis, linear logic, higher-order logic, and nonmonotonic reasoning.
