Title:
A gentle introduction to ludics
Date:
11.00 - 12.00, April 21st (Thu)
Place:
Room 478, "Research Bldg. No. 2 (Sougou Kenkyu 2-Goukan)"
http://www.kyoto-u.ac.jp/en/access/campus/main.htm
(Next to our CS Lab)
総合研究2号館 478号室 (CS室のとなりです)
http://www.kyoto-u.ac.jp/ja/access/campus/map6r_y.htm
Abstract:
When one is interested in understanding the duality between syntax
(proofs) and semantics (models) in logic, a primary obstacle is that
proofs are finite and concrete objects, while models are infinite and
abstract structures. Since proofs and models are so different by their
nature,
they hardly interact together. This lack of interaction between the two
worlds prevents a deeper analysis of the relations between
syntax and semantics.
Ludics is a research program started by Girard aimed to explain various
logical and computational phenomena from an interactive point of view. The
universe of ludics consists of designs: partial and
infinitary proofs in which the logical type-information has been almost
erased. In this vast universe, both proofs and models can be
homogeneously represented as designs. Moreover, since designs come from
proofs, we can make them interact together via normalization
(cut-elimination). This induces an orthogonality relation, based on the
termination of the computation of the normal form, which allows to
reconstruct the logical types, as bi-orthogonality-closed sets of designs.
In this talk we introduce and discuss the basic concepts of ludics and
show some completeness results for proofs.

I am pleased to announce the 50th Tokyo Programming Seminar,
which will be held at NII on April 27 (Wed).
Ichiro Hasuo from University of Tokyo and Yde Venema from
University of Amsterdam will be talking about
coalgebra theory and automata theory.
The programme is attached below.
I'm looking forward to meeting you at ToPS.
Best regards,
Kazuyuki Asada

The 50th ToPS
http://www.ipl.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~tops/upcoming_seminar.html
Time: April 27th (Wed) 2011, 15:00--17:00
Place: Rm. 2004 & 2005, 20F, National Institute of Informatics
Speaker:
(1) Ichiro Hasuo (University of Tokyo)
Introduction to Coalgebra, through Final Sequences
Abstract:
In this talk I wish to deliver an elementary and informal
introduction to the theory of coalgebra---a mathematical
machinery underlying coinductive datatypes in functional
programming---focusing on its aspect of being the categorical
dual to algebra. More specifically, I'll first review the
categorical "initial sequence" construction of an initial
algebra, and then elaborate on its dual--the "final sequence"
construction of a final coalgebra. A trip along these sequences
is a good way to familiarize ourselves with the essence of
induction and coinduction, and the contrast between them.
(2) Yde Venema (University of Amsterdam)
Coalgebra Automata
Abstract:
Automata operating on infinite objects provide an invaluable
tool for the spcification and verification of programs.
Many of the infinite objects studied in this area, such as
words/streams, trees, graphs or transition systems, represent
ongoing behaviour in some way, and provide key specimens of
coalgebras. Hence it make sense to develop a universal theory
of coalgebra automata: automata operating on coalgebras.
The motivation underlying the introduction of coalgebra automata
is to gain a deeper understanding of this branch of automata
theory by studying properties of automata in a uniform manner,
parametric in the type of the recognized structures.
Coalgebraic automata theory thus contributes to Universal
Coalgebra as a mathematical theory of state-based evolving systems.
In the talk we give a quick introduction to coalgebra,
and we introduce the notion of a coalgebra automaton.
We will see that in fact a large part of the theory of parity
automata can be lifted to a coalgebraic level of generality,
and thus indeed belongs to the theory of Universal Coalgebra.
More specifically, coalgebra automata satisfy various closure
properties: under some conditions on the coalgebraic type,
the collection of recognizable languages are closed under taking
union, intersection, complementation, and existential projections.
Time permitting, we will discuss two kinds of coalgebra automata,
corresponding to approaches in coalgebraic logic that are based on,
respectively, relation lifting and predicate liftings. Our results
have many applications in the theory of coalgebraic fixpoint
logics), but these will only be discussed tangentially.

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
The European PhD Program in Computational Logic (EPCL) is run jointly
by four of the leading European universities in the field:
- Free University of Bozen-Bolzano (Italy),
- Technische Universit�t Dresden (Germany),
- Technische Universit�t Wien (Austria), and
- Universidade Nova de Lisboa (Portugal).
Further international universities, research organizations and
enterprises which contribute to Computational Logic or apply results
from it are involved as associated partners: The Simon Fraser
University (Canada), the Universidad de Chile, the National ICT
Australia Limited (NICTA), and several companies.

Necessary requirements for participation in EPCL are a Master's degree
in Computer Science or Mathematics, or an equivalent degree; the proof
of adequate knowledge of English; and substantial knowledge in the
areas Foundations of Logics, Foundations of Artificial Intelligence
and Declarative Programming.
The program will start on 1 October 2011. Applications have to be
electronically submitted on the Webpage http://www.epcl-study.eu/,
