皆様スワンジー大学のArnold Beckmann先生の講演のお知らせです。どうぞふるってご参加ください。問合せ先：石原　哉北陸先端科学技術大学院大学情報科学系 e-mail: ishihara(a)jaist.ac.jp ----------------------------------------------- * JAIST Logic Seminar Series * * The seminar below is held as a part of JSPS Core-to-Core Program, A. Advanced Research Networks, EU FP7 Marie Curie Actions IRSES project CORCON. (http://www.jaist.ac.jp/logic/ja/core2core, https://corcon.net/), and EU Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions RISE project CID. Date: Friday 15, September, 2017, 15:20-17:00 Place: JAIST, Collaboration room 7 (I-56) (Access: http://www.jaist.ac.jp/english/location/access.html) Speaker: Professor Arnold Beckmann (University of Swansea, Head of Department of Computer Science) http://www.cs.swan.ac.uk/~csarnold/ Title: Provably Total NP Search Problems of Bounded Arithmetic and beyond Abstract: Bounded Arithmetic forms a collection of weak theories of Arithmetic related to complexity classes of functions like the Polynomial Time Hierarchy. Many connections between Bounded Arithmetic and important questions about complexity classes have already been established. Recent research considers total NP search problems in the context of Bounded Arithmetic. Total NP search problems have been studied by Papadimitriou et al as a means to characterise the complexity of natural search problems which cannot be analysed as decision problems. In my talk I will review the research programme of characterising the provably total NP search problems in Bounded Arithmetic, and explain why it is important for current research questions in the area. I will describe recent results about the provably total NP search problems of a Bounded Arithmetic theories related to PSPACE and EXPTIME reasoning. I will also describe this program for theories beyond Bounded Arithmetic like Peano arithmetic, and what impact this might have on Complexity Theory.

The purpose of this workshop is to discuss both the fundamental and practical issues among people from the various backgrounds such as law, social science, information and intelligent technology, logic and philosophy, including the conventional "AI and law" area. We solicit unpublished papers on theories, technologies and applications on juris-informatics. ** Relevant topics include, but are not limited to, the following: Model of legal reasoning Argumentation / Negotiation / Argumentation agent Legal term ontology Formal legal knowledge-base / Intelligent management of legal knowledge-base Translation of legal documents Information retrieval of legal texts Computer-aided law education Use of Informatics and AI in law Legal issues on applications of robotics and AI to society Social implications of use of informatics and AI in law Natural language processing for legal knowledge Verification and validation of legal knowledge systems Any theories and technologies which is not directly related with juris-informatics but has a potential to contribute to this domain ** Invited Speakers Kevin D.

名古屋ロジックセミナー (Linda Brown Westrick氏の講演 8/24)
by Takayuki Kihara 16 Aug '17

16 Aug '17

皆様，名古屋大学の木原貴行です．この度，コネチカット大学の Linda Brown Westrick 氏の名古屋訪問の折に，下記の要領で名古屋ロジックセミナーを開催することとなりました．多数のご参加をお待ちしております．名古屋ロジックセミナー http://www.math.mi.i.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~kihara/logic-seminar.html 日時：8月24日 (木) 15:30〜場所：名古屋大学大学院情報学研究科棟 314室講演者：Linda Brown Westrick (コネチカット大学) 題目 Uncountable free abelian groups via admissible computability 概要 One way to study structures of uncountable cardinality κ is to generalize the notion of computation. Saying that a subset of κ is κ-c.e. if it is Σ^0_1 definable (with parameters, in the language of set theory) over L_κ provides the notion of κ-computability. We may also quantify over subsets of L_κ, providing a notion of a κ-analytic set (here we assume V=L). In this setting, we consider the difficulty of recognizing free groups and the complexity of their bases. For example, if κ is a successor cardinal, the set of free abelian groups of size κ is Σ^1_1-complete. The resolution of questions of this type is more complex for other κ, and a few questions remain open. This is joint work with Greenberg and Turetsky. -------- Takayuki Kihara Graduate School of Informatics, Nagoya University, Japan URL: http://math.mi.i.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~kihara/ Email: kihara(a)i.nagoya-u.ac.jp
