Logic, Construction, Computation

Main description: Over the last few decades the interest of logicians and mathematicians in constructive and computational aspects of their subjects has been steadily growing, and researchers from disparate areas realized that they can benefit enormously from the mutual exchange of techniques concerned with those aspects. A key figure in this exciting development is the logician and mathematician Helmut Schwichtenberg to whom this volume is dedicated on the occasion of his 70th birthday and his turning emeritus. The volume contains 20 articles from leading experts about recent developments in Constructive set theory, Provably recursive functions, Program extraction, Theories of truth, Constructive mathematics, Classical vs. intuitionistic logic, Inductive definitions, and Continuous functionals and domains

In the last decades, mathematical logic has developed into a technically quite sophisticated area of mathematics. Nevertheless, inspirations from philosophy and computer science continue to be important and noticeable. The series publishes conference proceedings as well as monographs written by leading researchers in mathematical logic.
