Logic, Language, and Security

This Festschrift is in honor of Prof. Andre Scedrov at the University of Pennsylvania. Scedrov has laid the foundations for a number of now well-established domains in mathematics and computer science including Proof Theory, Logic in Computer Science, Foundations in Computer Security, and Linguistics.
This combination of breadth and penetrating originality is rare and impressive. This Festschrift only tries to reflect this combination with a number of contributions distributed among these different topics.

It contains 11 technical articles and 3 short papers organized among sections on Logic, Logic and Computing, Logic and Security, and Logic and Language. Those articles are authored by researchers around the world, including North America, Russia, Europe, and Japan, that have been directly or indirectly impacted by Andre Scedrov.

The chapter “A Small Remark on Hilbert's Finitist View of Divisibility and Kanovich-Okada-Scedrov's Logical Analysis of Real-Time Systems” is available open access under a CC BY 4.0 license at link.springer.com.
