ABOUT LFMTP

Logical frameworks and meta-languages form a common substrate for representing, implementing and reasoning about a wide variety of deductive systems of interest in logic and computer science. Their design, implementation and their use in reasoning tasks, ranging from the correctness of software to the properties of formal systems, have been the focus of considerable research over the last two decades. This workshop will bring together designers, implementors and practitioners to discuss various aspects impinging on the structure and utility of logical frameworks, including the treatment of variable binding, inductive and co-inductive reasoning techniques and the expressiveness and lucidity of the reasoning process.

LFMTP 2020 will provide researchers a forum to present state-of-the-art techniques and discuss progress in areas such as the following:

* Encoding and reasoning about the meta-theory of programming languages, process calculi and related formally specified systems.

* Formalisation of model-theoretic and proof-theoretic semantics of logics.

* Formalisation of model-theoretic and proof-theoretic semantics of logics.

* Applications of logical frameworks: proof-carrying architectures, proof exchange and transformation, program refactoring, etc.

* Techniques for programming with binders in functional programming languages such as Haskell, OCaml or Agda, and logic programming languages such as lambda Prolog or Alpha-Prolog.

* Design and implementation of systems and tools related to meta-languages and logical frameworks
