19-20 May 2011, Mathematical Logic in The Netherlands (MLNL'11), University of Groningen

Date: 19-20 May 2011
Speaker: Henk Barendregt, Jaap van Oosten, Alessandra Palmigiano, Bas Spitters
Location: University of Groningen
Deadline: 5 May 2011

MLNL'11 is the third issue of a series of yearly meetings on Mathematical Logic (and related areas) in the Netherlands. The first meeting was held in Nijmegen and the second one in Utrecht. Rather than a specialized conference, where advanced research results are reported, we aim to get to know each other better and, by understanding the various branches of logic represented in the Netherlands, strengthen our community.

We have reserved a generous amount of time for expository talks, but also strongly encourage contributions by young researchers and Ph.D. students. Advanced master students in logic are most welcome to attend the meeting too.

Registration deadline: 12 May 2011. For more information, see: http://www.ai.rug.nl/MLNL2011/

19 May 2011, Computational Social Choice Seminar, Jouko Väänänen

Date & Time: Thursday 19 May 2011, 15:00
Speaker: Jouko Väänänen
Title: The Model Existence Game and its Role in Logic
Location: Room D1.116, Science Park 904, Amsterdam

20-21 May 2011, PALMYR X: Logic and the Use of Language, Institut Jean Nicod, Paris

Date: 20-21 May 2011
Location: Institut Jean Nicod, Paris

Both Paris and Amsterdam host a lively group of young researchers working at the interface of logic, language, and theories of rationality. PALMYR brings them together.

PALMYR is a series of yearly meetings taking place alternatively in Amsterdam and Paris. At each PALMYR meeting, visitors give talks about their current research interests, each presentation being commented by a fellow researcher from the host town. This year's meeting will take place in Paris and is devoted to the theme "Logic and the Use of Language".

23 May 2011, Logic Tea, Bruno Jacinto and Kasper Christensen

Date & Time: Monday 23 May 2011, 17:00-18:00
Speaker: Bruno Jacinto and Kasper Christensen
Title: Actualism, Necessity, and Logical Consequence

26-28 May 2011, Workshop on Admissible Rules and Unification, Utrecht, The Netherlands

Date: 26-28 May 2011
Location: Utrecht, The Netherlands

Admissible rules of a logical system are rules that can be added to the system without changing its set of theorems. In algebra, admissible rules correspond to quasi-equations holding in free algebras, while from a computer science perspective, admissibility is intimately related to equational unification.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together experts from these distinct areas of research spanning mathematics, philosophy, and computer science, to share ideas and methods.

26 May 2011, Logic Tea, Niki Pfeifer

Date & Time: Thursday 26 May 2011, 17:00-18:00
