Title: Tensorial logic in string diagrams
Abstract:
In this talk, I will describe how to resolve the schism between game
semantics and linear logic by introducing a primitive logic of tensor
and linear negation, called tensorial logic. I will then explain how
to depict the proofs of tensorial logic as surfaces formulated in the
3-categorical language of string diagrams -- this offering a natural
synthesis of interactive strategies and proof-nets.

Logic, Algebra and Truth Degrees 2012
http://www.jaist.ac.jp/rcis/latd12/
Second Call for Papers
=== Deadline for contributed talks: 22 April 2012 ===
=== Application for grants available ===
The third official meeting of the EUSFLAT Working Group on Mathematical
Fuzzy Logic [1] will be held on 10-14 September 2012 in Kanazawa, Japan.
The conference is organized by Research Center for Integrated Science
[2],
Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology [3].
Mathematical Fuzzy Logic is a subdiscipline of Mathematical Logic which
studies the notion of comparative truth. The assumption that 'truth
comes
in degrees' has proved to be very useful in many, both theoretical and
applied, areas of Mathematics, Computer Science and Philosophy.
The main goal of this meeting is to foster collaboration between
researchers in the area of Mathematical Fuzzy Logic, and to promote
communication and cooperation with members of neighbouring fields.
The featured topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
. Proof systems for fuzzy logics: Hilbert, Gentzen, natural deduction,
tableaux, resolution, computational complexity, etc.
. Algebraic semantics: residuated lattices, MTL-algebras, BL-algebras,
MV-algebras, Abstract Algebraic Logic, functional representation, etc.
. Game-theory: Giles games, Rényi-Ulam games, evaluation games, etc.
. First-order fuzzy logics: axiomatizations, arithmetical hierarchy,
model theory, etc.
. Higher-order fuzzy logical systems: type theories, Fuzzy Class Theory,
and formal fuzzy mathematics.
. Philosophical issues: connections with vagueness and uncertainty.
. Applied fuzzy logical calculi: foundations of logical programming,
logic-based reasoning about similarity, description logics, etc.
We also welcome contributions on any relevant aspects of related logical
systems (such as substructural and quantum logics, and many-valued
logics
in general).

International Workshop on Classical Logic and Computation (CL&C'12)
http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/~svb/CLaC12
July, 8 2012
Warwick, England
CL&C'12 is a satellite workshop of ICALP'12.
IMPORTANT DATES
Abstract submission (canceled)
Deadline for submission: April, 23, 2012 (new)
Notification of acceptance: June, 18, 2012 (new)
Final version due: June, 28, 2012 (new)
Workshop date: July, 8, 2012
INTRODUCTION
CL&C'12 is the fourth of a conference series on Classical Logic and
Computation. It intends to cover all work aiming to explore computational
aspects of classical logic and mathematics. This year CL&C will be held as
satellite workshop of ICALP'12 in Warwick:
http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/dimap/icalp2012/
CL&C is focused on the interplay between program extraction from classical
the exploration of the computational content of mathematical and logical
principles. The scientific aim of this workshop is to bring together
researchers from both fields and exchange ideas.
SCOPE OF CL&C
This workshop aims to support a fruitful exchange of ideas between the
various lines of research on Classical Logic and Computation. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to,
- version of lambda calculi adapted to represent classical logic;
- design of programming languages inspired by classical logic;
- cut-elimination for classical systems;
- proof representation and proof search for classical logic;
- translations of classical to intuitionistic proofs;
- constructive interpretation of non-constructive principles;
- witness extraction from classical proofs;
- constructive semantics for classical logic (e.g. game semantics);
- case studies (for any of the previous points).
SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION.
This is intended to be an informal workshop. Participants are encouraged to
present work in progress, overviews of more extensive work, and programmatic /
position papers, as well as completed projects. We therefore ask for
submission both of short abstracts and of longer papers.
All submitted papers will be reviewed to normal standards. The PC recognises
two kinds of papers: it will distinguish between accepted (full) papers that
contain unpublished results not submitted elsewhere, and presentations
of (short) papers about work in progress. The accepted papers will appear
in EPTCS.
In order to make a submission:
- Format your file using the LNCS guidelines; there is a 15 page limit.
- Use the submission instructions at
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=clc2012
A participants' proceedings will be distributed at the workshop.

Title: Goedel Logics, Continuous Embeddability and Fraisse's
Conjecture
Date: Wednesday, 4 April, 16:00---17:40
Venue: 802, Rigaku Sogo-to (Godo-to), 8F, Science Campus, Tohoku
University
Key words: many-valued logic, order theory, semantics
In this talk we present a family of many-valued logics introduced
by Kurt Goedel to approximate Intuitionistic Logic. Later on these
were extended to first order and have exhibited connections to
temporal logics, Kripke frames based logics, fuzzy logics in the
sense of Hajek (t-norm based logics).
These logics are based on selecting a closed subset of the real
interval [0,1], and collecting all formulas evaluating to true
for all valuations into this truth value set. Due to the specific
truth functions different truth values sets might generate the
same logics (as sets of formulas).
During the search for the total number of logics we took up old
conjecture of Fraisse (theorem of Laver) on the behaviour of
scattered linear orderings. We consider continuous embeddability
in the reals and prove a generalized Fraisse conjecture stating
the the closed subsets of the real [0,1] interval with continuous
embeddability are better-quasi-ordered. Using this result we
can show that surprisingly the total number of different Goedel
logics is countable.
This discrepancy - on the one hand uncountable many equivalence
classes of the above mentioned ordering, and countable many
Goedel logics on the other hand - leaves us still without an
"intensional definition" of Goedel logics in the sense that if
two semantical objects (to be found or defined) are different,
then the respective logics are different, too. This does not hold
for equality of the truth value sets, since there are different
truth value sets creating the same logic, as well as for the above
mentioned continuous embeddability induced equivalence.

8th SCANDINAVIAN LOGIC SYMPOSIUM 20-21 August 2012 at Roskilde University,
DENMARK
Second Announcement and Call for Papers
The 8th Scandinavian Logic Symposium will be held at Roskilde University, Trekroner,
Denmark, 20-21 August 2012.
After a gap of fifteen years, the Scandinavian Logic Symposium is back. The
Symposium is the first major initiative of the newly revived Scandinavian Logic Society (SLS,
http://scandinavianlogic.org/) and will be held at Roskilde University (RUC), Denmark.
As with previous editions of this conference, the aim of the programme is to reflect current
activity in logic in our part of the world. So we hope that participants from Scandinavia, the Baltic
countries and Northwestern Russia will take the opportunity to contribute a talk and to meet
with fellow logicians from the area. But needless to say, we also extend a warm welcome to
logicians from further afield and plan to present a varied and interesting collection of invited and
contributed talks.
TOPICS
The scope of SLS 2012 is broad, ranging over the whole area of mathematical and philosophical logic, and logical methods in computer science. Suitable topics include (but are not limited to):
* Proof Theory and Constructivism
* Model Theory (including Finite Model Theory)
* Set Theory
* Computability Theory
* Categorical Logic
* Logic and Provability
* Logic and Computer Science
* Logic and Linguistics
* Modal, Hybrid, Temporal, and Description Logic
* Logics of Games, Dynamics and Interaction
* Philosophy of Mathematics

TARK 2013
14. Conference on Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge
January 7-9, 2013
Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Chennai, India
Conference website: http://www.imsc.res.in/tark/
About the Conference
The mission of the TARK conferences is to bring together researchers
from a wide variety of fields, including Artificial Intelligence,
Cryptography, Distributed Computing, Economics and Game Theory,
Linguistics, Philosophy, and Psychology, in order to further our
understanding of interdisciplinary issues involving reasoning about
rationality and knowledge. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to, semantic models for knowledge, belief, awareness and
uncertainty, bounded rationality and resource-bounded reasoning,
commonsense epistemic reasoning, epistemic logic, epistemic game
theory, knowledge and action, applications of reasoning about
knowledge and other mental states, belief revision, and foundations of
multi-agent systems.
Submissions are now invited to TARK 2013. Extended Abstracts can be
submitted here:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tark2013
Strong preference will be given to papers whose topic is of interest
to an interdisciplinary audience, and papers should be accessible to
such an audience. Papers will be held to the usual high standards of
research publications. In particular, they should 1) contain enough
information to enable the program committee to identify the main
contribution of the work; 2) explain the significance of the work --
its novelty and its practical or theoretical implications; and 3)
include comparisons with and references to relevant literature.
Abstracts should be no longer than ten double-spaced pages (4,000
words). Optional technical details such as proofs may be included in
an appendix. An email address of the contact author should be
included. Papers arriving late or departing significantly from these
guidelines risk immediate rejection. One author of each accepted paper
will be expected to present the paper at the conference.
Economists should be aware that special arrangements have been made
with certain economics journals (in particular, with International
Journal of Game Theory, Games and Economic Behavior, Journal of
Economic Theory, and Mathematical Social Sciences, so that publication
of an extended abstract in TARK will not prejudice publication of a
full journal version.
TARK 2013 will precede the Indian Conference on Logics and
Applications (ICLA) held from January 10 - 12, 2013, also at the
Institute of Mathematical Sciences in Chennai, India.
TARK 2013 is the 14th conference of the TARK conference series.
Previous conferences have been held bi-annually around the world. The
most recent conference was held 2011 at the University of Groningen,
Netherlands, see http://www.philos.rug.nl/TARK2011/. The proceedings
of all previous TARK conferences can be accessed here
http://www.tark.org/
TARK 2013 is the first TARK conference to be held in India. It is also
the first TARK conference to be held in January.

Subject: PhD/Postdoc Positions in Theoretical Computer Science at FAU
Erlangen-Nürnberg
[I would be grateful for further distribution of the job advertisement below]
In the newly founded Theoretical Computer Science group (Chair 8) at
the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg, several research positions are
available that can be filled at the doctoral or post-doctoral level.
These include project positions of up to two years, in the TV-L E13 or
E14 pay scale depending on qualification of the applicant; project
topics include
- coalgebraic logic
- probabilistic description logic
- formal methods in mechanical engineering.
Additionally, at least one position is available that is not tied to a
specific research project but does carry a teaching obligation of 5h
per week; in this case, research work can be positioned in any of the
core fields of the group including
- modal logic
- knowledge representation
- coalgebra
- formal methods
- program semantics
- applications of semantic technologies
Such positions can be filled at TV-L E13 for an initial appointment of
three years, with a possibility of extension for another three years
subject to provisions by German laws on temporal employment in
academia; postdoctoral applicants from EU countries can be appointed
at the A13 payscale ("akademischer Rat") (which pays better and has
better benefits) for two periods of three years, with a possible
extension of two periods of two years at the A14 payscale
("akademischer Oberrat") for candidates who successfully complete a
habilitation during the first six years.
Please send applications consisting of a cover letter, resume, and
contact details of three references by email to
lutz.schroeder(a)cs.fau.de. There is no particular application deadline;
positions will be filled when suitable candidates are found.
Best regards,
Lutz

Title: A refined model construction for the polymorphic lambda calculus
Abstract:
We present and discuss a stable model for the polymorphic lambda
calculus. The domains are enriched by an approximation structure.
This allows to put additional requirements on the morphisms of the
underlying category. Moreover, a totality notion can be introduced
such that in the induced model the polymorphic booleans are
interpreted by the two-element set {True, False}.
