The Eighth International Conference on Topology, Algebra
and Categories in Logic
organized by
Institute of Computer Science, Czech Academy of Sciences
Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague

The Third Summer School
organized by
Faculty of Science, Palacký University Olomouc
Studying logics via semantics is a well-established and very active
branch of mathematical logic, with many applications, in computer
science and elsewhere. The area is characterized by results, tools
and techniques stemming from various fields, including universal
algebra, topology, category theory, order, and model theory.
The programme of the conference TACL 2017 will focus on three
interconnecting mathematical themes central to the semantical
study of logics and their applications: algebraic, categorical,
and topological methods. This is the eighth conference in the
series Topology, Algebra and Categories in Logic (TACL, formerly
TANCL). Earlier instalments of this conference have been organized
in Tbilisi (2003), Barcelona (2005), Oxford (2007), Amsterdam
(2009), Marseille (2011), Nashville (2013) and Ischia (2015).
Starting from 2013, the conference is preceded by a summer school.
