DESCRIPTION:The major trend in modern logic is the
  move from logic to logics. The need for formal mo
 delling of reasoning in various fields of science 
 (philosophy, linguistics, AI, cognitive, social an
 d management sciences) led to the design of hundre
 ds of bespoke logics. For instance, the focus on m
 ulti-agent interaction and social behaviour has le
 d to the introduction of logics specific to contex
 ts involving e.g. dynamic changes, uncertainty, in
 complete and inconsistent information, which are a
 t odds with reasoning as is formalized in classica
 l logic. This rapid expansion has generated the ne
 ed to develop overarching theories capable to prov
 ide uniform proofs of fundamental properties--such
  as soundness, completeness, analiticity, decidabi
 lity--for each member of vast families of logics, 
 while at the same time accounting in a modular way
  for the specific features of each.  Algebraic pro
 of theory is a research area in which these genera
 l results can be achieved using insights from alge
 braic logic, universal algebra, duality and repres
 entation theory for classes of algebras. This work
 shop aims to bring together researchers in algebra
 ic proof theory and its applications, explore prom
 ising research directions, and foster collaboratio
 ns. The workshop is organised on the occasion of t
 he PhD defenses of Fei Liang and Apostolos Tzimoul
 is.
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:\n  <p>The major tren
 d in modern logic is the move from logic to logics
 . The need for formal modelling of reasoning in va
 rious fields of science (philosophy, linguistics,

 instance, the focus on multi-agent interaction and

 ogics specific to contexts involving e.g. dynamic
