                         Call for Papers

Analyticity is a topic that connects foundational issues in logic with
applications, mainly in automated deduction and analysis of proofs.
The workshop is primarily intended to enhance awareness for this topic
and to promote corresponding discussions and contacts between experienced
experts and younger colleagues.

TOPICS OF INTEREST include:

    * Old and new types of analytic calculi: sequent calculi,
      tableaux, connection method, hypersequents, deep inference
    * Cut elimination and Normalization: new methods, complexity,
      abstract approaches
    * Proof search: modeling proof search, streamlining calculi,
      model extraction
    * Relation to other methods: analytic systems and resolution,
      dialogue games, programming languages
    * Extracting information from analytic proofs: extraction of
      algorithms, constructivity, model construction, Herbrand's theorem

The workshop will be co-sponsered by the International Kurt G<F6>del Society 
(KGS) and will include a workshop dinner to which contributors are invited.
