7 - 12 November 2022, 4th International Autumn School and Workshop on Proof Theory, Utrecht, The Netherlands

The 4th International Autumn School on Proof Theory in Utrecht is arranged under the auspices of The Proof Society and organised by the universities of Amsterdam and Utrecht. The Proof Society has recently been formed to support the notion of proof in its broadest sense, through a series of suitable activities; to be therefore inclusive in reaching out to all scientific areas which consider proof as an object in their studies; to enable the community to shape its future by identifying, formulating and communicating its most important goals; to actively promote proof to increase its visibility and representation.

The aim of the Autumn school is to cover basic and advanced topics in proof theory. The focus of the fourth edition will be computational content of proofs, sequent calculi, proof complexity, proof theory of set theory, and philosophical aspects of proof. Other areas will be represented through research talks at the following workshop. The intended audience is advanced master students, PhD students, postdocs and experienced researchers in mathematics, computer science and philosophy.

The Autumn school is co-located with a workshop on proof theory in Utrecht (11-12 November). We invite proposals for contributed talks at the workshop. These can be on published or unpublished work, as well as work in progress. Submissions via the EasyChair conference page. Abstracts are limited to 2 pages including references (12pt, 2cm margins). Authors of accepted abstracts will be asked to provide a tex file for the purpose of a book of abstract which will be made available to the attendees of the workshop. The best talk presented by a student will receive an award from The Proof Society.
