[Apologies for multiple copies] ====================================================== TOPOLOGY, ALGEBRA, AND CATEGORIES IN LOGIC (TACL2015) School & Conference ====================================================== School: 15 - 19 June 2015, University of Salerno (Italy) Conference: 21 - 26 June 2015, Ischia Island (Italy) logica.dmi.unisa.it/tacl/ Scope --------- 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 characterised 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 2015 will focus on three interconnecting mathematical themes central to the semantic study of logics and their applications: algebraic, categorical, and topological methods. This is the seventh conference in the series Topology, Algebra, and Categories in Logic (TACL). Earlier instalments of this conference have been organised in Tbilisi (2003), Barcelona (2005), Oxford (2007), Amsterdam (2009), Marseilles (2011), and Nashville (2013). Starting from 2013, the conference is preceded by a one-week school. This year the school will be held at the campus of the University of Salerno and will include four tutorials, each consisting of 1.5 hour lectures for five days. Featured topics --------------------- Contributed talks can be on any topic involving the use of algebraic, categorical or topological methods in either logic or computer science. This includes, but is not limited to, the following areas: * Algebraic structures in CS * Algebraic logic * Coalgebra * Categorical methods in logic * Domain theory * Lattice theory * Lattices with operators * Many-valued and fuzzy logics * Modal logics * Non-classical logics * Ordered topological spaces * Ordered algebraic structures * Pointfree topology * Proofs and Types * Residuated structures * Semantics * Stone-type dualities * Substructural logics * Topological semantics of modal logic Steering Committee ------------------------------ Guram Bezhanishvili, New Mexico State University Mai Gehrke, University of Paris Diderot Rob Goldblatt, Victoria University, Wellington Ramón Jansana, University of Barcelona Achim Jung, University of Birmingham Hiroakira Ono, Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology Yde Venema, University of Amsterdam Michael Zakharyaschev, University of London Programme Committee ------------------------------ Nick Bezhanishvili, University of Amsterdam Xavier Caicedo, University of los Andes Thierry Coquand, University of Gothenburg.
